Still a very useful player for us. Can see him being utilised well in that role behind DCL against teams that sit back against us with his creativity unlocking defenses
Also at what point did it become the common consensus that he was on 200k a week? I thought it was initially reported to be 90k but it seems the narrative suddenly changed when Benitez wanted rid
Isn't the "recouped through shirt sales" thing a bit of a myth. Seen a few articles like thisNo doubt.
All down to relevance, and that only comes - really - with success on the pitch.
Not sure if/how a transfer can be described as commercially successful - I don't think we'd ever get the insight. I do struggle to see how his fees/wages and marketing costs would be recouped though.
The selective amnesia in relation to James is ridiculous.Short memories here
it’s almost as if we didn’t win any matches with him playing
and as if it wasn’t injuries that derailed our season last year
Ronaldo put 8% onto Man Utd's share price last Friday. That was £250M right there, before any Merch/Sponsorship/Other they can get off the back of him. Paid for himself a many times over just by turning up.No doubt.

He will. He didn't come down in the last shower did our boss.Mate, to me if I was manager I'd be running a mile away from offering a player who doesn't fit my profile and can ignite pockets of resentment against me a place in my team.
I reckon Benitez will see it that way too.
Nobody has said anything about starting him in games, all folk are saying is that to not use a player like that off the bench in certain games would be ale house level management. If you think the current kick and rush tactics are going to work against everyone I think you are going to be in for a shock mate. We need a plan B at some point.
Yeah. I’ve a mate who works in Paris for a big accountancy firm and said all that shirt sales thing is a myth. After all the manufacturers and retailers take their cut the club only gets a percentage which isn’t that great.Isn't the "recouped through shirt sales" thing a bit of a myth.

Why shirt sales don't even come close to paying for a transfer
The Old Lady are said to have pocketed a staggering $60m in shirt sales in the 24 hours following his unveiling alonewww.independent.co.uk
Well.. maybe these peopleNot the manager this time.
Backed by £1.8M?
People aren't daft.
That's fair enough. I think it's also fair to say the best way to keep him fit is to you him sparingly anyway. Plus he'll probably be more effective against tiring legs.Can only play in games in which we'll dominate the ball or if we need something off the bench for me. This team can afford no passengers in terms of athleticism and work rate.
As long as his aren’t too tired ?That's fair enough. I think it's also fair to say the best way to keep him fit is to you him sparingly anyway. Plus he'll probably be more effective against tiring legs.
Some total loons in that list like lol

The biggest problem we have with FFP isn't the wage bill or spending, it's the small size of our income that sets the cap.
The Club is less competitive than others our size because we bring in less from Commercial deals/Sponsorship.
