Aaron Ramsey

I think this puts Defoe's wages into context. The bottom line is when you're a free agent that value goes to the player rather than another club.
But it still might make a teammate feel slightly put out if he’s on a lower wage simply because a transfer fee was paid. Although I do believe most players get a percentage of their transfer fee (as long as they didn’t request a transfer) so maybe that evens it up?

I guess they all have the option of waiting their contract out to do the same thing. Presumably a trade off between the money they could get and the risk of a career threatening injury right when their contract is nearing completion. It would be interesting to know how insurance works in these situations.
 
Why? ....Because he was one of Arsenals best.....forget that ive just googled it ...he goes in the Summer...weird type of transfer? So I suppose he will play against us!
