...spent in this transfer window alone. I don't even want to think about wages.
Football is really stupid money. This bubble has to burst. It is totally unsustainable on this upward curve.
I still love the game (especially now in this very rare time of unprecedented success for us), but footballers on or approaching 100k a week is just plain stupid. I might even be able to accept exceptional wages for players like Messi, but there are some mediocre players making ridiculous sums to kick a ball around badly. Hard to swallow when some people have to choose between food or heating.
No real point to this thread. Just a moan. Pissed me off that spending a billion pounds on smug looking pricks is apparently something to be proud of.
