Jeff Hendrick

I'd say we'll have a wage bill to match the likes of Burnley next season. I don't see any reason why we wouldn't

No fee obviously but he still wouldn't be a cheap signing. Last I heard he was on ~£35k/week so would presume he'd seek similar or more at his next club. There would of course be a signing-on fee as well.

How accurate are the figures i've seen of Blades spending £12-13 million of yearly wages?
Apparently Burnley are paying between £37-38 million.

Huge difference.

If we stay around for a few years, then I'd expect our wages to be up in that direction. Worth also noting that Burnley have been in Europe so extra revenue/playing staff.

Of course it will increase, it was just the assumption was that it would treble over the summer, which is both unrealistic and would also be very worrying.

I think Bournemouth's is also around the same as Burnley's.....
I'm not sure Europe has much impact financially in all honesty.

I guess we could always offset his wage demands with a higher signing-on fee.. however he'd still be looking at around 40k minimum imo.

Given we will earn £120m. Why would we spend £12 on wages. It's unheard of

Wasn't it a similar amount from promotion?

Don't worry - Utd are paying a lot more than £12m in wages.

Whichever way you cut it, it would still take up a sizeable chunk of the budget and he certainly wouldn't be the cheap signing some think he'd be simply because there would be no fee involved.

 

[Carlton Blade]

When was the last time any of you saw him do something good? He was awful against us at BL.

Not saying he'd be a terrible signing. But I'd be underwhelmed

They are already paying loads more. If they weren't all the players would be talking to their agents. The numbers posted for United are ludicrous

No thanks, smacks of Dean Hammond MK2

£12-13m in the Championship. Last season was £19m including promotion bonuses (over £30m less than media darlings Norwich btw). This season will be over £30m at a guess.

He's a reyt keep it safe and simple merchant, nothing ever happens.

A shit Jackson Irvine.

So effectively what you're saying is, he's perfect for us?

[Blade58]

Did Burnley offer him another contract and he refused to sign?

A fun fact about Jeff Hendrick is that his head is legally classified as a small moon.
