About ten years or so ago £50million would buy a Zidane or a Figo. Now it would buy you a Sterling or a Kane.

How messed up is that?

Inflation is a wonderful thing.

If Kane has one more good season they will nearly value him in the same region as messi,the money side of the game is crazy!

Anon - there is inflation and then there is hyper inflation on anabolic steroids!

Leahy - Its scary to think that we could be involved in a tug of war with Real Madrid for Kane next season should he replicate the campaign just gone. £80million will be the opening offer!

It does seem crazy, but I bet the amount of money in the game has increased a lot more as a percentage. I've got no problem with people coining it whilst they can (especially the people providing the so called "entertainment", but ultimately the game is suffering as a result.

I watch far too many players being pally pally with opponents pre game and even during game now, it's like their own little fantasy world. It's almost like they are all in on one big con, the more I watch football the more it reminds me of US Wrestling, it's almost fake now with minimal contact, players saying and doing things from a virtual script, managers and clubs telling blatant lies, the media telling blatant lies. It's all one big extravagant money making exercise dressed up as competitive sport.

The money is killing it, everything is so superficial and the transfer prices reflect that.

Depay @ 22m looks like a bargain right now

Jeez, Beast. I thought I had a downer on the modern world! I agree totally, though :)

Zidane these days would be 100m+ figo about 90m.
Both class Zidanes one of the GOAT.

PSG Signed Moura and Silva for £35Million, Athletico Madrid signed Falcao from Porto for £35Million. Liverpool signed Andy Carroll for £35Million. Just let that sink in!

And Chelsea signed Torres for 50m and we signed ADM for 60m, I don't understand what you're all getting at. You choose bargains and use them as tools to back up your arguments and just ignore all other big deals, like you could say Rooney for £30m 10 years ago was the same as Kane/Sterling £50m now, but that wouldn't back up your argument that there's no value would it?

15 Jun 2015 14:03:21
Not sure there is an argument going on? Isn't the discussion which everyone seems to be in agreement on, about how ridiculous money has become in the game now?

15 Jun 2015 14:09:07
Some people will find an argument in anything Ports.

15 Jun 2015 14:25:40
That is true JMB.

15 Jun 2015 14:43:07
I wasn't on about you specifically, just all I've seen for the last few days is that every English player is overpriced and not good enough and you could've got 50 Roy Keanes for the price of Sterling. Took it out on the wrong guys, sorry haha.

15 Jun 2015 14:49:06
No they won't, JMB.

15 Jun 2015 16:21:56
Hahahahaha 99

They will Stevie, you are an idiot.
