No way Hazard is on that much

He is I think because we were desperate to beat off competition to sign him so we offered him a huge salary. A dream to earn that much at his age, good that there is no reports of unrest in the club over the players wages. Also, the loan players as well, Lukaku is on around £40k plus I believe. While Chalobah is on around £15k.

I should have been a footballer

This is how the world works....no one is ever compensated what they should be in relation to the amount of work they do. Some are paid more than others. Unfair....yes. Moaning about it going to change it....not in our lifetimes if ever.

Unless you want to live in a communist society where the ideal of a "fair" society (to the masses) is preached.

I have no problem with football salaries, it's what they're "worth" because we're willing to pay so much for tickets, jerseys, etc. These Chelsea players provide me and the rest of the millions of fans so much entertainment that it makes sense they're paid that much.

Yeah, their job may not seem like it deserves that kind of pay (they're doing something a lot of people do for fun) but that's just how it works.

I can understand the sentiment. The players are top professionals and are making the most of their talent. But salaries matter now more than ever with regards to Financial Fair Play. It's a disaster to have somebody like Torres 'earning' 10m a season.

The disaster isn't having a top player earning a top salary, the disaster is having ordinary players such as Yossi Benayoun earning £90+ grand a week, Steve Sidwell on £60+ grand, Ben Haim on the same.

If you want the best you pay top money, the key there is picking top quality because the level of investment over the contract period is so high. We've bought previously outstanding players past their prime, if Torres was banging in 25 goals a season we'd not mention his salary. No one moans about Mata's salary, if I were him I'd be moaning my balls off at being paid over a million quid a year less than Benayoun

If you spend your whole childhood and teenage years training to be a professional football player then I think that you also deserve to have a high salary for the amount of effort you have put into it.
