How do we blame?

I assume Villa came calling with an offer to double his wages so do we blame them? Takes a lot to turn it down.

Eh? He left for more money. No one's at blame.

Every footballer would do it, let's not kid ourselves.

offered to double your wage you would be off like a shot as well

this aint no different, get over it, move on

Spurs have improved since he left them so will we

Anyone would think we just sold Messi to Newcastle

of course its different daft arse.

bent doubling his money will mean nowt as im sure whatever he wanted to do he could have managed to do on his mere 40k plus a week.

double the wage of the average man on the street makes a much greater difference.

agreed that its not the end of the world like.

Such a ridiculous comparision. He's already on more money than is needed for anyone, surley leaving a legacy at one club is much more rewarding?

Obviously not.

He stills get paid twice as much. Any footballer would do it. Let's get real man. It's only a job for them.

Companies don't have thousands of fans around the world following them as their principal hobby. Football is a very emotional sport, its why we all love it. Footballers (most anyway) have got no idea, in this respect.

I have limited evidence, to work on, but I believe you may be the nearest thing to a total idiot I've seen on here.

I dont give a shit about the legacy at my current company, if someone wants to double my wage im off.

Footballers have a short career, and you cannot blame them for going wherever they can earn the most
