United – It’s a Ridiculous Amount Of Money, It’s Time To Call A Halt To These Ludicrous Salaries

|

Although Paul Pogba’s current contract still has two years to run, I’m probably not alone in suggesting I wouldn’t bet my mortgage on the French midfielder still being at the club in a couple of years.

All summer the 26-year-old was, in a plethora of speculation, linked with a return to mainland Europe, either with Real Madrid or Juventus.

Now whether that speculation will ramp up in January, once the window opens, we can only wait and see, but my view is that I wouldn’t be surprised if it did.

Today, our associates at The Mirror, are running with an interesting article relating to the possibility that I, and several others, could be proved wrong and that not only will Pogba remain at Old Trafford for the remainder of his current contract but could well put pen-to-paper on a new deal.

However, although a new deal is discussed, there’s no positive news apart from the fact that Manchester United are, according to our source, denying that the French international has asked for a salary of £600,000 a week!

I should damn well hope so!

Players are already on astronomical salaries and it is my opinion there should be a salary cap enforced, worldwide, before things get totally out of hand.

Is it a view you concur with?

    Professional footballers should take heed of rugby players who play for their team and team mates week in week out without all the bull shit. Ive supported Utd since I was 6, 58 years now and my goodness how bad and how many more excuses can be used for players who don’t care and cant be bothered. The three signings in the summer have been brilliant, well done Ole, the best signings for a several years and the younger players coming through are great. If the over paid and senior players cared as much as Ole we wouldn’t have a problem. The fans that pay every week to watch these primadonnas should be able to give their player ratings and anyone 5 or below shouldn’t get paid because of little commitment and failing to produce what they are paid to do, see how that goes

    I think we should keep pogba get a central defender to work with maguire mctominay will work well with them giving pogba more of a free roll that he had with prev club and just put in an offer for good old ronaldo after we get rid of alexis full time with a player like ronaldo he puts in a good performance and will get the best out of pogba then u will see a team play football again and watch the young players rise up the ranks
