By no stretch of the imagination is he the finished article at 21... but lets say he is the Messi of gks... was Messi getting 7m as a 21yo at Barca?
Where does this maddness end... wot will be his salary in 2 contract renewals? If he keeps asking for 1m each time that wont be as bad... but few league titles, 1/2 CL under his name he and rolo wont ask for a mere million... we're going to end up paying him Neymar/Messi money... thats just not on for a gk position.
When did Buffon start getting 7m or more? it wasnt at 21... I have yet to see a game by Donna like the one played by Buffon against us on his 1st appearance.
Edit: May get proven wrong on Messi's wage at 21... but still, hope you take my meaning.
Ok so lets say Messi's agent was an asshole when he was 21 and demanded 7m for him. Would you say Barca were smart for saving 1 or 2m a year on his wage by letting him walk for free?
He's an asshole for letting his agent squeeze us, but 6 or 7m for a generational talent is an easy decision for me. It won't really cause a major inflation because no matter how much Hakan demands 6m he won't get it because there are other players as good as him. There are none as good as Gigio.
You could say to me, “Kessie is Milan’s best player” and I wouldn’t laugh in your face.
Watching him lately, the guy has become world class.
I wanted to strangle the people that asked for him to be sold...
