At one point we were spending shitload of cash. I guess other teams complained.

Now it's our turn to suffer.

Yeah I guess but it wasn't this ridiculous, this has somehow become "sustainable".

we never spent like these guys, heck at our peak they spent on one player, zidane, what we did on 3. It seems like every year these guy drop something like 150-200 mil on player transfer fees.

Petr Cech’s agent has sensationally snubbed a move to Serie A, insisting his client won’t go to Italy because 'there are too many problems’.

The veteran goalkeeper could well leave the club this summer with youngster Thibaut Courtois coming back to Stamford Bridge after three years on loan at Atletico Madrid.

However, the player’s representative has claimed that the shot-stopper is definitely not coming to the peninsula.

“Petr has a two-year contract, but I don’t know if it’s going to be respected,” Viktor Kolar told Aktualne.

“Both Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain are interested. He’s a great goalkeeper and will play for another big club.

“If Chelsea don’t want him, I’m sure there will be interest from the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona as well.

“We’re discarding Italian football because there are too many problems with Serie A.”

FFP basically made the rich teams richer.It did barely anything to curb the spending nor i dont think was there any such motive in the first place.

Exactly, fuck it, put a spending cap every year.

If we take last yr as an example, most of Real's spending came through player sales.
Regarding the Suarez deal,basically Sanchez + Fabregas money=Suarez.

they'd still find a way around that though, like probably arabs would have 4 extra teams purchasing or whatever and 'gifting' to the big team...

every year they are making €100m or €200m more than Juve and despite their higher costs they are making profit while we are making losses. some people are just unwilling to accept that big money players also bring in the money through goodwill or higher revenues.

some people have made their own make believe expectations about FFP without understanding it and are complaining now.

Yes. It's stupid that a profession like football earns more than a million per year. Let alone 10+.

Suarez is going to find out what power Messi wields at Barca when he finds himself playing out of position or sitting on the bench.

if you think 70 plus mil is pocket change, then yes

 

[Salvo]

More than a salary cap it should just be a fee cap. 75ml a year, which is still ridiculous, but if it means that inflated prices goes down it could work well. I don't see this cycle of dominance ending, Serie A won't be able to get any better unless every team is bought out by a Sheik.

it's capitalism i was talking about capping the teams, but that will be very hard to do since they all play in different leagues, with different income distributions.

Bale-100m
Illaramendi and Isco-60m combined

Out :
Higuain-40m
Albiol-15m
Callejon-10m
Oezil-50m

So basically 50m net spend.They have overspent but they're also doing good business through sales to compensate for it.I agree the individual player fees is ridiculous but when you look at it overall,i dont see it as a careless spending like Man City do for instance.I think they're working well within their means.

Im just using their last yr dealings as an example btw.

Are you surprised? I'm not tbh. UEFA actions remind me of modern-western-governments: they say they'll fight with poverty - the society is getting poorer. They say they'll fight with unemployment - unemployment rises. They say they'll fight with low birthrate - it gets even lower. It's a pattern and it always ends up the same way: they get exactly the opposite to what they plan. UEFA is no different. The more regulations like FFP they introduce the worst the situation will be like.

Dude it's not capitalism. In capitalism you have a fair competition and here you just have UEFA supporting only big clubs with huge injections of money they don't deserve. Not to mention favourable ref calls and draws. Also making it easier for players to change clubs. Today the contracts aren't worth jack shit and smaller teams can't become big clubs because they're sold out immediately.

It's more of an football oligarchy but capitalism.
