Hamilton Saint Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 Some will; some won't. For many players money is the #1 consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 You'd like to think they would at least stick around for a shot at the Champs League. I could understand them leaving the following summer if we don't qualify again but you would have to be a right money grabbing b**tard to leave in spite of Champs League football.

LainPain Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 Some will; some won't. For many players money is the #1 consideration. You mean, for everyone in the world, money is the #1 consideration? Hate the idea footballers are different to the rest of us, we all move jobs for more money.

buctootim Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 we all move jobs for more money. No we don't. Many of us move jobs for less money to work in jobs we love in places we want to live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate the idea footballers are different to the rest of us, we all move jobs for more money. The difference being for most of us small amounts of money are life changing. £50k a week, invested wisely is easily enough for a player to retire from. That's more in a year than most of us will earn in a lifetime and still leaves enough gravy for a big house, a Lamborghini and a WAG with a handbag fetish. Leaving for more is just greedy.

Some will go, as I said; some will stay. I also presume that salaries will continue to rise at St. Mary's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveyR Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 Morgan will go. It's a shame but that's modern football. I wouldn't begrudge him a move as he's been a great servant to the club and helped got us where we are today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuncanRG Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 It would take eye-watering sums and I don't think the likes of Liverpool or Spurs would be so attractive to our players. The best of the best could of course tempt someone away, but that's the joy of succeeding as a team - I don't think many of our players as individuals would improve the top sides. I'd be most worried about interest in Koeman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 Champions League with us is likely to be a couple of games, where as a 'big team' is a whole season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajjuk Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 You would like to think no but I suspect if we do then it will be times higher than the likes of Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs looking at our players. More like the Chelseas, Man Citys and some big Euro clubs might be looking. You would also like to think that the example of Lovren, lallana, Lamert, Shaw etc would have an influence.

Bucks Saint Posted 11 January, 2015 Share Posted 11 January, 2015 No we don't. Many of us move jobs for less money to work in jobs we love in places we want to live. This. I moved from somewhere I had been very happy, to get more money, now been let go. Tried to go back to the old place I loved but nothing available now. #lessonlearnedthehardway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deano6 Posted 12 January, 2015 Share Posted 12 January, 2015 Ive been offered double and almost triple salary, Im still in my original job as I prefer the conditions If money is everything I feel sorry for them But you could always still move jobs in a few years. These guys have around 10 years to make all their money before they retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Balls Posted 12 January, 2015 Share Posted 12 January, 2015 But you could always still move jobs in a few years. These guys have around 10 years to make all their money before they retire. Why? Hardly like they cant earn well after football. If they've got something about them (and often they don't even need that) and invest it well and look to further their career with media/coaching/management/or any other business they have the ability to start with such disposable money. They earn more in a year than most will in our lives. With 10-20 years of that income, they'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 12 January, 2015 Share Posted 12 January, 2015 I think they'll stay tbh one more season. I *hope* they'll stay for one more season, but then that's what I hoped for last season. If we finish top 4, no player has any excuse for leaving other than money. We are all pretty much in agreement that even with CL money we can't match Chelsea and Man City for money, right? That leaves one other team with a CL spot who might be an option (whether it's Man U, Arsenal, Spurs, etc) or they're leaving for a less successful team. Bertrand and Alderweireld will be different cases with that in mind, of course, as we'd have to agree deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
