Relax, it’s just a bunch of raging populist right wing Germans seeking to erase the existence of people they don’t care for. When has that ever led to real trouble?

Elite players? No, I don’t.

a) they generate vast amounts of revenue for their clubs, they should receive an appropriate share of that revenue

b) It is the most hyper-competitive job market out there. The world is full of footballers, the game is studied, coached and analysed like no other. Talented young players are identified early and resources devoted to developing them. Whoever you are, other elite players are always hungry to take your job, from across the entire planet to within your own club, and your employers are always on the lookout for a better option. To be at the very top you have overcome astonishingly long odds and are, by definition, absolutely exceptional at your job to a global standard.

c) It doesn’t last long and can all be over in a moment.

Do I think there is too much money in modern football overall? That would be a much trickier question to answer, and I’d probably come down yes, there is. But whatever money there is in football, I absolutely do not begrudge the actual players a single cent of their share.

Win and you have to field one less player the next game. Lose and you get another player the next game.
