triggs Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 A Chinese club has bid £35mil for Arnautovic Willing to quadruple his salary Wham surely won’t accept that offer though. Didn’t they pay similar for him and he’s their best player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I guess it depends what sort of a fuss he kicks up. Imagine being offered 4x your salary to do the same job man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Nearly 30, you’ve already played in some of the biggest leagues...for £400k a week for 2-3 years I’d be away in a flash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I'd actually notice 4x my salary though. None of this lot would. He’s probably made about £10-15m net in his career if you take it as £50k a week for the last 10 years. That move could set him and his family up for life.

Optimistic Nut Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Has the £10-15m not done that? I was fantasising on my break today whether the £8.2m in tonight’s lotto would be enough to retire and I’m still not sure. Was thinking at least £20m on the Euros would be needed just to make sure.

triggs Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 He's only playing for West Ham because of money anyway, same as when he went to Stoke. Premier League clubs outside the top 6 are only able to attract good players because of the money in the league so can't get too upset when they want to go to China for the money Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I can't be fucked to argue, but the "he's made enough money" thing is to me. They're in an industry where they work for about 5 minutes, and their clubs bring in billions of pounds. There is no reason whatsoever that he shouldn't look to earn his piece of the pie. And there will most certainly be a definite difference in the quality of life he can expect should he settle on 10-15m vs what, 30m+ he'd end up on? Sure, he's rich compared to the masses, but why shouldn't he be? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was fantasising on my break today whether the £8.2m in tonight’s lotto would be enough to retire and I’m still not sure. Was thinking at least £20m on the Euros would be needed just to make sure. Eh It would almost certainly be enough to retire and live comfortably forever! I’d retire with £2m I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Could you sort out your immediate relatives for life too with that? That’s what I’d be thinking. Sure, if I’m selfish I’d survive on £40-40k a week but I’d need the £200k a week to see everyone ok. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 The PL is a high level of competition. But he's only at Wham for money and London is a nice city to be rich in. Wham are unlikely to win any trophies so he's literally just there for money and to compete in a good division. There's still a chance he could get another crack at the "big time" in Europe which might interest him ala Shaqiri but time isn't on his side. I couldn't begrudge him a move to China. £2m after taxes, i'd need to work again without substantial money to fund a large-scale business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 It all depends on the lifestyle you're imagining spending that money on. Yeah I could probably keep my lifestyle running on that sort of money for the rest of my days. But a footballer's lifestyle? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
