Fees paid to Agents and Intermediates in EPL


Recommended Posts

be as well GBP 46M going to agents as opposed to going into players pockets - football is screwed with money - should be wage caps 

or there should be a percentage fee charged on each xfer which goes back into training academies or something with lower league clubs getting access to

Why ? the EPL has done a fantastic job of marketing itself and is probably the most socialist of all the top leagues the way it distrubutes cash.. look at La liga where Barca and RM carve up most of the TV money or Germany where it is Bayern and then everyone else. People will pay what someone is worth to them and that is no different to any other job. Good luck to them  

Hopefully this season wont be a one off and the money sloshing around will enable more "Leicester" seasons rather than watching Man U Chelski or City win the league every year

Cos the players are a bunch of kunts and don't deserve the money they are paid - GBP 10M is ridiculous a year

if you think they are worth that, good luck on your planet 

This is like house price inflation and its all built on debt or bilionaire owners - effectively the clubs cant afford what they are paying - so paying what they are worth is not really a just argument, + some of this is built on EBT's etc - its a crock of shit really 

why i only support scotland now

It's unfortunate, but can't really see the bubble bursting at the moment.

If players can't earn £10million a year in England, they'll go to China.

It would almost be better if football became a 2 tier thing, with large franchise football teams in a perpetual "champions" league, and then normal football for the rest of us.

They are worth it because clubs have the money and they are prepared to pay it. You may not like it you may think that they are "khunts" personally i think a lot of hollywood actors are overpaid "khunts" but if someone were to offer you 10m a year I doubt you'd turn it down !

The clubs can afford it becuase there is so much TV money in the EPL. i believe its been posted on here as of next year the club finishing bottom of the EPL get about £100m plus parachute payments just in TV money !!

With the best will in the world if the SPL was a rich as the EPL and one of the smallest clubs in the league had beaten Rangers or Celtic to the title most on here would be posting what a great success story the SPL was !

As for two tier we have that in the EPL at the moment with leicester winning it and spurs comng second long may it continue  ! the big boys will spend this summer no doubt but Man u spent £250m last summer and bought mostly shite and will hopefully do so again !

I'm not sure we are talking about the same thing?

:lol:

Although neither Spurs or Leicester would necessarily be in this hypothetical "champions league", so from that point of view I t is good to see 2 teams who are not the biggest spenders get some success, although I think the point it's arguably down to there being so much money that money can't buy you success isn't quite what we should be aspiring to?
