Player Valuation: £20m
you can talk about greed both on and off the pitch btw.

Just off the lukaku thread and I included rom in the 'most greedy bracket' of players. Made me start this thread. My dad's a spurs fan and every time they are on tv he points out just how many goals Spurs could score if Harry Kane squared it or passed to a better placed teammate. It really is ridiculous how many times he shoots from impossible angles and fails to score. He will no doubt leave after next season for 80 million and £300,000 a week when he scores another 20 from 100+ attempts for Spurs, and no longer being a big fish will flounder at whatever club is unfortunate enough to buy him. There's no loyalty anymore and the Kane song 'he's one of our own' will look ridiculous.

Ronaldo is perhaps the greediest I've ever seen on the pitch, with Kane closely following. Big rom is up there too. Think of how many times he has wasted opportunities of providing easy assists, opting instead of shooting from impossible positions. I think we should have a counter per game button next season (if he stays) for such stats.

Greed is one of conte's pet hates at Chelsea, and it's interesting to note that it's very rare Costa or hazard etc go for glory if there is a better placed teammate. Maybe that's why they are league champions. The positives of this are twofold; more goals will be scored and better team spirit will be fostered. It's amazing how many times you'll see Barkley or deli Ali cracking up after rom or Kane have refused to make the easy assist pass in favour of the selfish, greedy impossible shot.

Nothing in football annoys me more, well, apart from diving.
 

Off the pitch.

Darren bent the money grabbing Judas, son of a ..........

On the subject of money and footballers, whats the feeling with your lot about Defoe seemingly taking the free transfer option, and again, seemingly, getting a 3 year, £5m plus, deal at Bournemouth?
