[Albion] Marc Cucurella *Signed For Chelsea 05/08/2022*

Fair enough, I just don’t think he contributes enough on the pitch to be worth 90k a week, all about opinions though

Hopefully Lallana will give you and Springal a reason to bounce my posts next season, I really hope so as he is a quality player on his day

What is, in your opinion, a contribution on the pitch worthy of 90k a week? And, given Lallana's on pitch contribution, what is he worth a week?
Also, what do you value contributions off the pitch at?

Zinchenko is actually only on around £20k a week. Not much for a player of his quality.

I suspect 20k a DAY is actually closer to reality.

Yet we still finished in the top 10!

Yep, but fortunately the amount of clubs owned by billionaires/states doesn’t total 10... yet.

Sportrac think its that per week……they also think Foden is on 12k a week though

Do you mean three goals, or one goal? Pretty sure he only managed one in the PL (equaliser at home to Chelsea).

Three goals in all comps last season, I think.

PL goals at home to Chelsea and away to Watford. League cup goal at Leicester?

Marc Cucurella *SINGS on a five-year contract*

Without any ITK, I bet he's on less than our highest earners.

Which begs the question, when will we pay our first £100k+ a week wage? If the figures bandied around for Lallana and Dunk wages are correct, we can't be that far away

Albions average weekly wage bill is £50K a week and City average is £165K…

 

[Springal]

True but Webster is much younger and more important to the team than Lallana (imo) and assumably on much lower wages. He also has a resale value

Or are you suggesting that Webster is also a gamble gone awry, if so I don’t agree with you

Webster also scored three goal last season, Lallana 0

Regardless of wages , just saying he’s not a crock / sick note when plenty of others - including more expensive players have been more injured

It's worth adding that this metric -- players wages -- is the most accurate predictor of where a team finishes in the table.

You might be onto something, other than the fact City finished top not bottom!

He said deal between Cucu and Shitty was done, this was last week.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

We are in such a strong position with this sale that I don't think anything will be signed off until we have a replacement in.

We'll have a plan and won't be left scrambling around for a signing.

I find it hard to believe that Lallana is on almost twice the wage of our next highest earner. It just isn’t the usual MO of the club to be singling out one player for such high earnings.

How does anyone know the individual wages? I know it’s reported on Sportrac.com, but they’re just guessing, aren’t they? I can’t believe Barber sends them a breakdown of how much each player is earning.

Exactly, it’s absolutely all total guesswork. I doubt all of the squad know what each other is earning, let alone random fans on an Internet forum.

Are they the people that apparantly said Foden was on £12K a week, and Zevchenko (sp?) on £20K?

Yes they are guessing, and no, no-one on here knows.

Indeed. It is possible to make decent guesses however.

Re Lallana, I think it is quite possible that he got the highest wage in the squad. Signed from Liverpool (and there must have been other teams interested), lots of caps and titles under his belt and no transfer fee. Would surprise me a lot if he is not one of the best paid players.
