Its to abuse FFP, we only put it down as a £10 million spent per season now, this is how you negate FFP with long contracts.

If he is offered a salary far beyond what he believes he can get elsewhere now or in the future, a longer running contract surely isn't a lose lose lose for him...

He's 22 - if he doesnt think he will become even better to deserve even better salary than he will earn now then I wouldnt even want him in my club o.o

I was hoping to see him in a promising Arsenal lineup, potentially to become EPL champion in half of the year, but here we are

As far as I understood Mudryk have a choice either to stay in Shakhtar for at least 6 more months, or to join Chelsea instantly, and this is bc of the management choices :/ So it was a golden cage indeed

And if he injures himself and never gets back to his old level he will be very happy with the deal. It's life changing money to earn that much and he will make it for 8.5 years. Most people would take this deal since there's no guarantee you'll ever get another offer as good as this one.

i think weve all seen with harry kane why long contracts are shit. for footballers playing at big clubs, money shouldnt be a concern. if youre willing to imprison yourself at a club and forfeit your freedom of choice for a few extra million youre an idiot

Spurs GOAT? That's either Ginola or Anderton!

Anyway, it's so rare to see a loyal club servant nowadays. I still don't rate Kane as world-class (at the same level of Griezmann or Benzema, for a close like-for-like comparison) and doubt he's much of a transfer target to teams outside the EPL (the same way that Beckam was then and Bellingham is right now). That said, I have much respect for his loyalty and team-first attitude.

overlooking the fact that griezmann and benzema dont really play the same roles, i wouldnt put griezmann on benzema level and i would rate harry kane higher than griezmann. honestly if kane had been playing at city or any other top team (though admittedly, no other team has really pushed for him. maybe due to not wanting to deal with levy), he would be probably have been in the same category as benzema, lewandowski, suarez etc.
his goal scoring ability even in a shit team like tottenham is still impressive and hes a much more well rounded player than say, haaland. at a top team hed have the titles to back it up too

Surely Jimmy Greaves is in completely uncontested territory for Spurs GOAT

Kane used to be a pure striker like Benzema. But now he's transforming into a deeper forward role like Griezmann during last WC (not sure if he's playing the same role in AM this season as well). That's what I meant. Obviously Benzema and Griezmann aren't quite the same type of player.

Anyway, point is, despite his immense skill and technical ability for an Englishmen, I doubt whether Kane is highly regarded universally by top European teams in last 3-4 seasons. Put money aside. Would Bayern swap Kane for Lewandowski? Or Real for Benzema? Or Barca for Griezmann?

Yes, Jimmy Greaves is probably still GOAT. Kidding about the other two

Unpopular thought: Arsenal is playing better football since gabriel jesus has become injured. Eddie does a real good job leading the line and now more balls are shared between arsenals wingers and midfielders than when jesus was playing

As an Arsenal fan I am really happy jesus isnt playing for us atm. Jesus just wastes too many good chances and opportunities
