I would prefer Sanchez and not Alexis on the back though.

Carbon is rightly going to have something to say about this.

Obviously I look at my take-home pay for budgeting etc., but if I think of my overall annual salary, I and most others talk/think about it pre-tax. We follow the finances of Manchester United the company, not the individual players, as we support United, not individual players, so it makes more sense to talk about what United are paying, not what Alexis is taking home. I only talk about salaries when it gets bought up. People are baulking at the 500k a week mentioned. But it would be a correct figure, as when worked back, it roughly equates what the player was asking for back in September. Especially when you take the high signing-on fee. Thats it really. I don't really care what he is getting pre-tax. Thats the clubs problem. It's better than going on debt repayments. And if they weren't paying more mediocre players such high wages, then maybe the top players wouldn't be looking for as much as they are. It's about time investment was made into adding quality to the playing squad. EDIT: Looking back, it looks like my use of the word "correct" would be the source of this all. It was meant in terms of it all adding up to what the player/his reps were asking for. Which was given as a post-tax figure. Fair enough. I'm not concerned with what we're paying him either - £500k seemed a bit eye watering at first, but as long as he brings his A-Game I'm fine with it. And, as you say, it's better than it being in the gimps' pockets. Fair enough, I see what you mean.

Still a far better use of the money than Rooney.

Matter of hours by all accounts now! You do know that, about a week ago, Di Marzio was reporting it was done and dusted to city right? The guy hasn't a clue. The guy definitely does. I thnk everyone thought a week ago he was going to City.

I can't watch any Lingard video. I like him but if I watch that shit I'll hate him.

I cannot see the club paying 500k gross a week if the player is getting a signing on fee. Why? The club have saved themselves around 25mill on the transfer fee for a start. Plus Sanchez wanted around 350k a week, which he isn't getting. The massive signing on fee makes up for the lesser wage. United did similar with Ibra. EDIT: It's still less than the 25mill signing fee that Sanchezs people quoted United back in September. Less than half in fact. So, lesser wages & a lesser signing on fee. This would probably be because Sanchez wanted out of Arsenal this month, regardless. It’s either they pay the signing on fee and give him £300-£350 wages or they don’t and give him £500k That’s my thought

The difference in wages (250-280k instead of 350k) is made up with the signing-on fee.
