Player Valuation: £50m
Has our Jordan announced his retirement from international football yet. A quick scan of the back pages seem to have decided that "Hendo" is the man to replace beleaguered Pickford immediately.
This will be the danger of smashing our wage structure. It could be that top players like Pickford have a clause in the contract for parity with top earner, if not they’ll know the new guy is being paid significantly more and want the benchmark raised for themselves via their agents. It has to be handled carefully.A few weeks back he was close to signing a new 4 year contract.
If I was his agent I would be waiting to see the outcome of the Grealish deal before putting pen to paper. Use that deal to get a bump in the wage packet.

Unless they've got clauses inserted to match highest earners.Branthwaite is probably on par with Pickford at the minute.
Imagine how their representives will be if Grealish comes in on double their wage.
Recipe for disaster.

Grealish has titles to his name...so normal for me that he should be on more money.Branthwaite is probably on par with Pickford at the minute.

I'd usually say yes but his kicking/passing at the weekend was abysmal.To be fair, if any player deserves a bump in wages, it's Jordan Pickford!
