oh damnMonaco isn't exactly the hotbed of futbol fans. I think I saw their average home attendance was like just below or just above 5K.why are they playing in an empty stadium?
Can't believe Monaco hasn't scored yet nearing the 40th min, they're playing a bottom run Ligue Un team in Toulouse....

When you live in Monaco, where do you holiday?

Rumor that west brom may get MosesI like willian as a player, but his arrival means my boy Moses is on the way out. I have a soft spot for African players and I liked what I saw out of him last season. Hopefully he gets a full transfer out and gets his career going at another team. I'd hate to see him rot on the bench
The point I'm trying to make is this.
If in 2013, Ronaldo was 25, and was transferring from United to Madrid, he would have been even more expensive than £80 million, because naturally, the cost of transfers has increased.
So I'm not saying that Bale is worth more than Ronaldo. I'm saying because times have changed, Bale today costs around 80-90m, which is more than Ronaldo in 2009.
BUT in 2013 if Ronaldo was 25 in his prime and transferring from a club to Madrid, he would most likely cost 100-110m.
And then one day, someone else in 2018, will be signed for 150m etc.
That doesn't mean each player is better than the previous player, it just means they cost more do due to supply and demand and football economics.
Does this make sense to you?
Inflation shouldn't be an excuse when a player has had one good season, even with inflation Bale should cost no more than 60. Everyone is talking about image rights and kit sales, when has bale had the level of popularity to recoup his transfer fee? There is inflation and then there is stupidity, this fee falls in the latter. The last statement "Does this make sense to you?" was truly uncalled for.
That's a good point. And the thing is, travelers tend to visit Monaco specifically to watch those events. Not too many hardcore local footy fans there, it seems.Broham, Monaco people are chilling on yachts, lavish living, clubs and house parties in the summer, they don't care about football. They're more about the tennis and F1.why are they playing in an empty stadium?
