The College Dropout Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Interested to know what the new wage is. I don’t have him as high as Bruno or Isak. It needs to be less than £200k - ideally £120-150k. Anymore then he becomes hard to shift if he doesn’t replicate his form of last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was probably a bit further down the line than that. Deal and figures both sides in principle agreed and a medical booked in Germany but we held off hoping we could resolve our PSR black hole an alternative route at the eleventh hour. Which we did. Clearly the biggest fallout of it all has been AG’s mental state since. If we valued Miggy and paid as much attention to him I’m sure the last couple of windows have had similar effect to him also.

Can't see him being more than 150k tbh, will probably be in that bracket you outlined there. He's worth that though. What he lacks in elite-level skill or vision, he makes up for in work rate and discipline. Very good team player normally, and I would expect his stats to reflect his value again by the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 My guess is we pulled a bit of a Chelsea and got him to agree to lower wages than he was originally thinking in exchange for a sixth year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be £150k ball park base (maybe bit lower like £120k), with incentives where if his output is on par with last season, he'd be taking home close to £200k pw across the season. That's the sort of contracts you want for hungry players. Keeps structure in place, performs, the bids of £80m+ will still come in time where you can sell for good money and not break the wage structure.

One thing Spurs do really well is not giving players the supermax unless they really deserve it. Kane, Son. The rest - you can go to Man City for megabucks if you want the massive contracts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subject to the details of the contract. But it's positive that we seem to be back on track for ironing out these situations and haven't ended up butting heads, which could've been very ugly for everyone. Hopefully he doesn't do an interview next weekend about how good he is at getting players to undervalue themselves in negotiations Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we allowed to give Paul Mitchell any credit as DOF? The fact that its a 5yr contract being reported (2029) would suggest your guess is incorrect and therefore not the strategy. Without his work rate and intensity there is a massive drop off as we’ve seen. Would be careful with his contract. Pleased he’s extending and not breaking wage structure the main thing. He’s better than a lot on here thought he was, but he’s not as good as he thinks he is. Balance to be had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie_once_removed Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I've done my bit. Him and Isak are both out of my fantasy team so they should now hit form. If I had the money I'd put in Harland and triple captain him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just have to look at how he kept on trooping all through last season when everyone else was dropping like flies to know he gives everything when he's in the right frame of mind. That was after playing for England U-21s in the summer as well. If he's signing a new contract you would expect to see him put in the hard yards if nothing else.
