If odegaard is on 80k a week at real then it is a dark day for football

And to think, he's only 16.

Crazy.

I know it's disgusting, he should be on as much as bale and Ronaldo!

That's when you know there's something seriously wrong in football, it would take me 3 years to earn that! What's that going to do his head, we all know what's happened to Justin bieber lol

Truth is no person kicking a bag of wind is worth 80ķ a week, when some people work their butt off in real work for not much more than 8k a year. Yet again another situation where football is loosing touch with reality. Totally obsene.

{Ed025's Note - i agree steve...im a part time gigolo and dont earn that much most weeks mate..

Ed I thought gigolos only got minimum wage . I obviously need to get a life and get out once in a while. I might try some of that gigololing.

{Ed025's Note - it keeps the wolf from the door steve.. :)

He has no right to earn what I earn he's only 16. My revenue from my app for high quailty pics of pig meat wasnt easy to make.

Make sure you all download it. Instaham

Am I the only one who hates the 'footballers earn too much' argument? They earn what they earn because someone is willing to pay them X amount for their services. In fact they earn what they earn because you all pay to watch them, be it via television or at the stadium.

Dags gammon admit it was a good joke. :)

grass roots is struggling tho. less players taking part. terrible pitches and facilities. the money needs to be put back in somewhere.

80k at 16 is damaging.

If you think of football as entertainment, which hopefully it is, then the salary top footballers take, at least in percentage of turnover and profit is no worse than top movie or TV stars. If you don't like the wages, you can always go and support your local amateur team, although of course the standard is rubbish. Personally if I want to go watch a load of objects barely moving I can just go to the British museum and look at the statues.

Epping clubs are in debt tho. pompey was a bad case of that no

say justin timberlake does a sell out tour. he makes money, the stadium makes money. there not trying to win a league or paying 60mill for the best drummer.

films the actor is paid. the film goes to cinema, dvd, net flicks etc.
if the actor was to sit on a bench for a year because he is injured he would not be paid 250k a week etc and would have no work. I think films are better value. 9 pound for avatar or 100 to watch arsenal chelsea. no brainer

and I do watch lower league do not mind i

Agree with red. To a point, untill it becomes detrimental to fans

Blimey DG. Where do you go to watch movies for just £9 a pop? In London £9 won't even get you popcorn and a coke, let alone a movie ticket!!

As a Celtic fan and arsenal my EPL team I feel as if arsenal missed out on wanyama.
As a follower and visit Celtic park a lot I can tell you honestly arsenal should go all out for Virgil van dyke he is massive built like a brick u no what house scores well to boot further more the way he plays is really up arsenals street he can turn defence into attack has no problems carrying the ball up the park and his ball control is very very classy.
When sometimes Celtic need a goal we put him up centre forward this player is one of the best and Wenger should go all out to sign him he really puts the fear of god into his oppenants
And just another thing is it time for arsenal to offload Wiltshire

{Ed025's Note - i think he is absolutely hopeless and cant even trap a bag of cement CG, and under no circumstances should he sign for arsenal..(dont say anything, but i want him for everton shhhhh).. :)

Im a big wanyama fan. some on here are not. he was a bargain van dijk I would take for sure

{Ed025's Note - van dijk was good in mary poppins DG, but i do like wanyama..

He wasn't bad in chitty chitty bang bang either

I liked all his movies especially the action ones, oh wait that's van dam

{Ed025's Note - mine just failed the MOT...oh no..thats my damn van..

Apparently, Diaby is joining Everton once he is released by Arsenal :)

{Ed025's Note - once hes released from A+E you mean..

Got excited for a minute.

Headline read "Arsenal sign Losada from Barca" and thought sounds good, then realised. .

Great signing at only 23 she is a class midfielder. will link up with kelly smith very well I think. here creativity is key. barca will be sad to see her go after a decade at the club.

Definitely one for the ladies mate :-)

The worst thing about smart phones is you get to check paper talk on the ssn app see a possible signing get your hopes up then the voice in the back of your head reminds you it's probably bull@%it

The daily star and the Metro does anyone actually read these fantasy football comics.
Surely any political party who seriously wanted to win the upcoming election would forget about the economy education etc and just put top of their manifesto to out law this needless waste of the worlds paper resources.
A landslide victory would surely be guaranteed
