£200,000 a week. For what?

If God earned a wage he would probably earn less than the likes of Wayne Rooney, Yaya Toure and Sergio Aguero. Barack Obama only earns $400,000 a year. So why do footballers make so much fucking money?

Shrek earns £250,000 a week. Sigh.

Is it so that they can afford all the ridiculous tattoos? Or is it because footballers, like most sportsman (except golfers, which is a sport for fat old drunks) have a limited career in terms of years spent playing? Whatever the answer is, no football club in the world can justify the investments made into these players.

Lionel Messi, who is the best footballer in the world at the moment, ahead of the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, earns a mind boggling £29 million annually. He must really hate the tax man.

I earn this much more than you Obama. Sucker.

If you're Manchester City and you have just invested £200,000 a week on Sergio Aguero, what do you get in return? That is not taking into account the transfer fee paid to Athletico Madrid of about £39 million.

You get, if you're lucky a goal every 2 games. That's what a really good striker gives you in return (if you're lucky). So on an average of 6 games a month, which equates to 3 goals (if you're lucky) you pay £800,000.

£266,667 per goal. Why?

I don't know. Because the owner of Manchester City (Sheikh Mansour) is the brother of the President of the UAE and they shit money for a living. Maybe that's why. That doesn't explain how the other clubs, who are all mostly in debt, afford the wages demanded by these players.

I am rich. You're not. Whaa!

All I  know is that Sergio Aguero better keep his money far away from his father-in-law Diego Maradona or who knows, Diego might start those bad habits again.

Diego and Sergio. Keeping it tidy. For now

We wouldn't want that now would we?
