Whilst I don't want a return to the maximum wage days the power of so called 'agents' does need properly regulating and restricting. Why any player at the top of his game would want to play in China as opposed to the top European leagues just for the money, considering the vast sums they already earn is beyond me. :mad:

It's like asking Rembrant or Da Vinci to paint your outside loo for silly money joke football, instead of real painting.

When they're already worth tens of millions, surely an extra few makes no difference, that's like offering me a tenner.

Any player who toddles off to China is a mercenary IMO.

So are most people who leave their jobs for a substantial pay rise.

And in most cases a substantial pay rise includes a better job, better conditions etc. Not a huge drop in the quality of the working environment and the standards required.

Filthy touch from Gouffran and then the finish too. Top class.
