    It's a bit of a cow point, though, isn't it? We always hear about how Alexis is so incredibly ambitious, a pwopah winner and all that, so surely he won't want to stick around at our **** club.
    If we pay him £400k a week, Ozil's going to want the same, then everyone else is going to wonder why they're earning fúcker and pence. We don't have an unlimited budget.

    Personally I'd like hm to sling his hook.

    £400k a week does seem slightly excessive, I admit. Would his lifestyle really be that much different with an extra couple of hundred thousand a week? Does it really matter when you've got that much dosh? I assume these are more or less the sums that you're raking in, so do enlighten me.

    Imagine earning £2 million a year. You're flying first class, staying in the best hotels, eating in the best restaurants, rubbing shoulders with guys who are earning 10, 15, 20 million a year.

    One lives to one's income. it's inevitable. I've felt more skint whilst earning lots than at times when I earnt very little.

    Anyway, it's about his family. He has a chance to build alegacy so that neither his children nor his grandchildren nor their children ever have to worry about money. I'd say he has a moral obligation to do that as efficiently as he can.

    Pfft. He'll spoil them. They should learn to stand on their own two feet etc. Backbone and stuff. Otherwise they'll end up pampered and weak.

    They'll turn out right cunds, though, surely. He has a moral obligation to society to make sure they become hardworking and self-sufficient citizens, who know the value of a days work imo.

    I'm starting to sound like you ol' lot

    Don't believe in keeping players who want away, sell for the maximum available irrespective of who is offering it,
    Yes, but we're talking about our best player here, not your mum.

    Fúck any child of mine having to work like I've worked. If they turned out to be unpleasant brats but never had to sweat over a gas bill, I'd be delighted.

    There are many shítty outcomes for a human being, but poverty suckz the greatest of all ass.
