Or the top earner outright perhaps? So does his offer get increased to match Mata, or more likely, we try to negotiate Mata down to leave Lukaku's honour intact!

Surely Mata's earnings would have been known at the outset of our interest in him? It can hardly come as a surprise to the powers that be.
The knock-on effect on other squad members is surely something that's been long considered, and with STCC restrictions removed, surely not an issue?

No, but we cant give Mata 165k, then give Lukaku less, cos he wouldnt sign it.
Of course he's on big wages. If we want him, and I hope we do, we simply need a new wage structure.
He doesn't play for the money, he plays for the love.
....Lukaku's deal might include a provision for him to be top wage earner regardless of who we sign during the term of his contract. I seem to recall Duncan Ferguson had something similar.
Mata would flipping love everton too. He'd be the type that would get all sentimental about us and playing at goodison and everything. It would be so boss.
Obviously you're probably right but I'm choosing to ignore you and my better judgement mate because he is the juan for me.
I get teary-eyed thinking about his potential blog posts.
"Goodison is now home and it is full of warmth"
Mate he would be a monster of a player for us, Just think he's well out of reach
not really as simple as that.
We're gonna offer (we have offered) Rom double his current salary, and the promise of being our highest earner.
That would mean Rom would be on circa 140/150k p/wk. If Mata was willing to drop down to that, then we'd probably have a good chance of that happening.
You're genuinely acting like 'setting a new wage structure' is the easiest thing to do though. It can be done, but it's a fine balance.
he on about the beer, yeh?
