Agreed, the real issue for me is that they can earn this amount money in the first place. Obscene.
Very few would turn down such a ludicrously proportionate rise if offered it I'm sure. What needs fixing (somehow) is that the salaries themselves are so disgustingly disproportionate and over inflated.
Quite how this is achieved whilst football continues to spiral away, out of control and disengaged from all reality like it is, well that is beyond me.
