I think Prophet was being sarcastic fwiw I’ll advocate for a ban on posting anything from Luke Edwards, since it only ever leads to multiple pages of people getting wound up and calling him a cunt.

I think we're a little way off for star forwards at the moment anyway. Like you say, Strikers in foreign leagues at less ambitious clubs is where we are looking I think.

Nah don't think it will the epl has the largest average wage where the next highest is Spain which is about 60% of the EPLs then bundesliga at around 50% of EPLs. We should be able to offer a competitive wage regardless. Botman is on 18k a week atm. Tagliafico is on 44k a week. Azmoun is on 41k a week. Can easily double their wages or at least increase substantially. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vedder Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 It'll raise over time. Probably don't want to rock the boat too much right now, but once your right back is on £100k, it's less of a gap to bring in a forward on £150k. Then further increases over time. I think this policy will save us from some of the overpaid dross agents will be seeing us as an easy target for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
