    America is clearly going to be an amazing place to live and play for someone like Gerrard/Beckham.

    Obviously anyone who goes to China does so for the money.

    Playing football in MLS seems miserable to be honest. Constant long journey flights where you have to sit in economy, because America loves it's sports to be as communist as possible, so no team has an advantage.

    You're not already earning £200k per week though.

    Earning more million for a year sounds great especially since they have been earning 100k per week for the past 10 years. But i don't earn millions. Im a fanatic who checks football stats and numbers all day. Seeing some bullshit on players CV at the end, looks shit.

    If you think I'm going to China and having to drown my own poultry for a million quid a year, think again.

    I'd do USA for that money, or maybe Japan at a push.

    I’ve never understood why no footballer has ever signed one of those mega bucks millions of pounds deals, then retired at like 25 to live it up.

    Because most people don't get good enough to be professional footballers without actually enjoying it.

    We don’t have Asda in the states. Which is good because it reads like a keyboard input when you’re trying to type gibberish

    Yeah, it's a miles better option than dropping down the league[s]. The money is almost irrelevant.

    Probably worth it for their ego alone. Rooney is one of the best players in the league in the MLS instead of the slower, whiter Lukaku he was for his last few years at United.

    The bigger reason is that these people are incredibly driven (which is why they've reached the top in the first place) and they don't want to let go. You're a long time retired, and all that.

    I don't think there is anything wrong with chasing the money, I have more of an issue in the an attempt to draw more money from my chosen club though.

    I think it was Assou-Ekotto(?) who flat out said he only plays for the money or something along those lines which was refreshing.

    Refreshing but a shame. He was pretty good, but could have been top quality if he had given a shit.

    I love the idea of someone being so good at football that he's paid millions of pounds to do it and deciding to jack it in half way through a career that will last less than half of the rest of his life.

    Gazza's the prime example of this. He stopped playing and his life has been completely fucked ever since.

    Someone like Super Mario Balotelli never seems to actually enjoy playing football, why not go get some silly mega deal in China then go live your life.

    I just don't get it tbh. I would be biting of the handy of any club who offered a chance to break even on the prick. I just don't see why Man United and their fans would want him representing them irrespective of how good he may allegedly be. He hasn't done enough in the time he has been there on the field and his actions of it have really harmed them.

    Sell him to Juventus with Dybala in exchange, add a top centre half and two midfielders then things wouldn't look too bleak even with the nostalgic one at the helm.

    I'd rather have Sandro, Rugani or Bentancur in terms of part exchange.

    Never rated Dybala.

    I'm basing it off his age and his position. I don't think I've ever actually seen him play.

    I wanted a Juventus CB but I Chiellini, Barzagli and Bonucci are all well over 30 which doesn't fit THE TRANSFER SYSTEM that Wooders has in place.
