Glad you mentioned that. What was it, 24 shots for the Crew but only 3 on goal?!Classyposter58;1494150 wrote:I don't know if I've seen a worse team at finishing quite honestly. They actually move the ball very well, but they never finish these good possessions
No kidding. I woke up for that lackluster display by United. RvP didn't have a very good showing at all. Rooney out for a spell with a cut on the forehead.Pick6;1494235 wrote:nice win for Liverpool
One time transfer fee, then the team has to pay the salary each week.IggyPride00;1494279 wrote:I know less than nothing about soccer, but just saw a headline that a player was sold for a tranfer fee of $100 million Euro ($132 Million Dollars).
Does the team acquiring the player still have to then sign him to a massive contract on top of the $132 million they paid in acquiring him, or is that all part of the deal.
If that is money it costs just for the right to give a guy another $100+ million that is insane.
Can someone just give me a brief explanation of how the transfer system works? Thanks.
Im sure they will try.Pick6;1494287 wrote:Think totty makes some moves before the transfer deadline tomorrow?
What does that guy make in his yearly salary on top of the transfer fee? Do you have any idea?Laley23;1494284 wrote:One time transfer fee, then the team has to pay the salary each week.
Thats how it works in world soccer though (granted, 100M is still rare and insane). But teams sell their players, then they buy new players. You literally cant field a competitive team without being involved in the transfer market.
Teams like Real Madrid (who just bought Gareth Bale for 100M) can afford it (barely, and in the current economic state, realistically cant). But its great for Tottenham (who sold Bale) because they can buy a **** ton of quality players with that money and actually come out better, possibly.
No. But, Cristiano Ronaldo, also of Real Madrid, makes 12M Euros a year. I know they said they would make Bale the highest paid in the world. So I would assume about that.IggyPride00;1494308 wrote:What does that guy make in his yearly salary on top of the transfer fee? Do you have any idea?
So assuming the guy makes say $14 million Euro a year over let's say the next 6 years, he is essentially costing RM over $30 Million Euro a year ( $40 Million Dollars) when taking into account the transfer fee prorated over that time.Laley23;1494312 wrote:No. But, Cristiano Ronaldo, also of Real Madrid, makes 12M Euros a year.

For reference, Real pulls in a little over 500M Euros a year on average.
I think he makes $9,245,600 in yearly salary.IggyPride00;1494308 wrote:What does that guy make in his yearly salary on top of the transfer fee? Do you have any idea?
In total, Tottenham have spent €121,875,000m and earned a total of €117,550,000 in sales. Net -€4,325,000
Gareth Bale's wage breakdown at Madrid:
Yearly: £15,600,000
Monthly: £1,200,000
Weekly: £300,000
Daily: £42,857
Hourly: £2,040
Minute: £34

Which channel will carry the Champions League and Europa League now? FS1? Fox Soccer Plus? I will miss FSC, used to watch it a lot for the various leagues/cups they would show.
I believe that Champions League may be with ESPN. I know ESPN has some coverage of some international cups -- the biggest being the 2014 World Cup, but losing it after that.sportswizuhrd;1494410 wrote:R.I.P Fox Soccer Channel
