I love it when Alfie mentions Freddie Adu like, almost every video...

Wait a second - Freddy Adu is on Cameo? And you haven't *once* hired him to do the intro? Alfie mate what are you waiting for

The lowest earners would be interesting to see as well

£50,000 goal bonus is insane 🤯🤯🤯

I could have sworn Gabriel Jesus is arsenal’s highest earner on like £265k a week??

My clubs (Coventry) entire wage bill is £113,000 a week and we're 3 points from the playoffs, this is so unsustainable for football as a whole. And bear in mind us being a top flight club would only be an odd proposition because of mismanagement we were in the top flight for 34 consecutive seasons and were a founding member of the PL. We're the kind of club that should really have the size and resources to have top flight ambitions yet this is the gulf that exists

This is Depressing Viewing for an Average Joe …. 👀. ⚽️

The fact Vardy first played in a major leauge at 27 n has 120+Epl goals more than fkn Drogba ffs it's mental to hink. Ckd naje a film abt it

The problem is this is affecting the championship as clubs are desperate for the premier league, never have I known so many financial problem/points deductions/ transfer embargo’s in one season

Always nice to hear some love for the keepers

The Premier League itself is almost an analogy for British society at large; a select small percentage of the obscenely rich keep getting richer whilst the gulf between it and the rest of British football widens. Not only that, but it does so in a vacuum compared to the rest of Europe.

Appreciate you bringing attention to the Gueye incident Alfie

Neto moving from Barcelona to Bournemouth has to be among the most bizzare transfers of all time. Still I wouldn't be surprised if he moves to another club next season since Bournemouth are likely to be relegated.

None of Luton’s players even make the top 100 of earners in the Championship. Alfie did make an excellent video on LTFC by the way. We are currently in 4th. It’s kind of scary that we could end up in the Premier League if we make the playoffs and are successful in them.

Damsgaard has actually performed better than expected, considering he moved to the Premier League after not having played a game for around a year with chronic arthritis in his knee.

For someone who’s last name is gueye, I’m surprised about that story

While I personally wouldn’t do what Gueye done, you can’t use the fact he had beer on his shirt to say it wasn’t a religious decision. Just like Christianity, not all sins are equal (murder is worse than stealing) and homosexuality is considered worse than alcohol, and that was obviously where Gueye draws the line.

Did he just miss Gabriel Jesus for Arsenal?

The funny thing is however, Zaha would be earning at least 50% more if he had joined a Top 7 club.

This list made me a little more proud of Barça's current board. They're not sitting around watching the club drown due to Bartomeu's decisions but has instead taken the initiative to get the club back up on its feet even if it requires ruthlessness.

Please do a deep dive analysis of the Preamier league referees and VAR inconsistency! We need it!!!!🙏🏼

PL clubs logic *insert man tapping head meme* If you can't make your super league, become THE Super League.

I am once again asking for a video about Algeria's unofficial FLN team (1958-1962)

Would be interesting to see the wages of Barcelona. No idea how everyone seems to be on 200k+ with the financial issue.

There is no way Livakovic is a better keeper than De Gea. Not even now, just because he had a great world cup doesn't mean he is even a top goalkeeper. It is actually telling that despite having 28 years he's never played outside Croatia while top goalkeepers like Oblak, Allison and Ter Stegen are just a couple of years older than him.

As a brazilian myself, I'm kinda surprised that so many fellow countrymen are the highest paid player, or at least top 3, of so many PL clubs. I had no idea of that. Even Leeds United's Rodrigo, who now represents Spain, is brazilian from birth 😅

I’m rarely this early. Was searching for the Newcastle Geordies chant and this came up

11:09 "Gay is a bigot" why does this amuse me

Trippier comes close actually in ability to Guimarães

Would be intrigued to see this for some of the other European Leagues, and the Championship, purely for the stark comparison.

Gr8 vid Alfie

Odegaard have deserved a pay raise

The small jokes you make with the names of different soccer plays floors me every time🤣🤣🤣🤣, I was expecting without further Adu, or However....🤣🤣🤣

I wonder if Alfie will do similar videos for the other Big 5 leagues in Europe.

I wonder that Richarlison isnt the highest paid at Spurs just considering the timepoint of his signing but prolly you can argue that they cant give him more than kane or Son

i would argue, whatever you think of de Gea, for the last almost 10 years until this season he was the only reason United didnt finish outside top 10 in many horrible seasons

The Croatian keeper is nowhere near David de gea level, hence why he's playing in Croatia and nobody had heard of him until he had a good world cup. Also David de gea's contract was cheaper than getting a replacement in and losing him on a free at that time.

The Everton man is no biggot

Hey Alfee Can you do a video on the infamous match between Barcelona and Chelsea in 2009 champions league or on the referee of that match ... Much love from Cape Town South Africa

Whats up with these Freddy Adu jokes 🤣🤣🤣

There once was a team called Burnley, Whose season was looking quite surly, But with grit and with fight, They began to ignite, And their wins piled up, quite early. - limerick from ChatGPT please talk about Burnley

please do a video on not well known darbys. I love the history of the big ones but don’t know about all of them!!

The fact Haaland has a goal bonus is just stupid. What's he getting paid the other 350k a week for if not for scoring goals???

Can u do highest paid premier league manager video as well

Gabriel signed a new contract a few months ago (if memory serves, he earns around 50-60k per week). Also, Gabriel Jesus earns more than Martinelli.

Martinelli's contract is said to be 200,000 a week, putting him behind the basic salary of both Jesus and Partey

I thought Ivan Toney was on £60k. Still, Brentford is amazingly efficient compared to neighbours Chelsea!

What was your source for these numbers?

"without further Adu" Genius.

I want to see you and Gueye meet each other for some reason. It should be interesting. Very interesting 😂

17:51 that image of Bruno is hella scary. Looks like he has 4 forearms 😂

Can you so this for the other 4 big European leagues.

Can you do a “what is going on at Olympiacos?” video please?

Missed Gabby J there Alfie

One has to understand that when De Gea signed that deal in 2019, Manchester United where desperate to keep him from joining Real Madrid, something that would have been very tempting for a player such as himself. Finding a proper replacement for him would have cost even more (in terms of transfers & wages) than giving De Gea that contract. Speaking of which, it's quite telling that Real Madrid where unwilling to offer Varane & Casemiro anything like £300k a week to either player. Despite the fact said club has lost some key players over the years...

If it wasn't for Ivan Toney's betting issues and his extended ban from any football activity, he would have been in the best conditions to negotiate a new contract and make himself the highest earner at Brentford. As Alfie stated, Damsgaard is still young, but he hasn't made anything worthy of recogntion at club level to be the player with highest wages at Brentford. They just signed Damsgaard because he had, indeed, great performances for Denmark NT at 2020 Euro. But he was just a meh player at Sampdoria despite being a regular starter for the Italian club. Sampdoria was already in financial troubles a year ago, so the club didn't doubt that much about selling a player who was not impressing at club level and the fee was way too good to be rejected by a financially troubled side like Sampdoria. Speaking of Sampdoria, do you think the club will be liquidated in the upcoming months? Do they have any chance to find investors to avoid being dropped directly to Serie D?

How do you even know what they are paid? One should think everybody concerned would be interested in keeping that information confidential.

De Gea's wage is not 375,000 this season as United are not in the CL so the 25% clause kicked in reducing top earners wages. It's probably around 280,000 per week.

Your did not mention JWPs salary??

That stat at the start is a bit scary

Classic Adu reference

Do a video on sheffield wednesday alfie

Thinking the most underpaid person in this entire video is Thomas Frank.

Coutinho shows 99% of these valuations, wages and fees in the EPL are bonkers... What more can you expect from a financialised nation with little diversity except Banking, and stocks and shares keeping the country afloat (precariously)...

When will we realise that religious beliefs are not a valid excuse for bigotry? I'm so, so sick of it now. Mind you, Gueye is a lovely name for him to have, in the circumstances. :)

Still hoping for that Austrian Wunderteam video 😇✌.

Next video about te Maltese League please?

Great video. How many players in the UK earn over £1 million a season?

Brighton is wrong. Lallana is on over £90k a week, and just signed a new deal so this may have gone up even more now

is this wages before taxes ??

I thought boubacar kamara at villa was on 175k

*IT'S DA HISTORY OF DA TOTTENHAM*

Why wouldn't Ivan Toney be Brentford highest earner?

Leno need to find a new agent. A goalkeeper with his class would've gotten a better wage deal, if he had a better agent.

W Gueye, if we talk about freedom you should be free to support or to not support a movement

El contrato de Sterling con el Chelsea es un crimen 💀💀💀 Le hicieron el favor de la vida al City. Al salario de Salah se les olvidó poner una cláusula que quite el aumento en caso el equipo no se clasifique a Champions.

Crazy the muny involved hnacruin the game. And thing us the Epl is by far best leauge completion in world bottom can beat top sign 30 40 mill players etc uts 9bv gr8 entertainment but us ut honestly sustainable. Probably lol

"Packet A crisps"lol😅 is it no pa-qwet (obv no spelled tgat way but pronounced like that genuinely asking)

Let's be real any GK Gurdiola signs probably wkdve been a top player mby no WC but good like top 5 keauges good like Emerson, bet values was ge8 outfield too for a Gk

Why do Sky's Saturday Social have goons like Thogden as regular guests when people like Alfie exist

pocket watching

Trippier is on more than bruno a week

Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 474) I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored. If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.

Day 10: Rise and fall of Klaipėdos Atlantas

24:12 Heeeeell naah? Have you seen a single Utd game this year?

This fkn crazy it isn't sustainable countries owning clubs

Harry kane is not a greedy boy

Next video idea: why all Wolves players have the same face

yes alfie, louder for those in the back about idrissa gana gueye!!!!

Wouldn't swap Emi Martinez for De Gea, or any other keeper in the World! 3 Keepers highest paid players in 3 Prem Clubs, and not one of them can lay a "glove" on Emi Martinez World Cup Saving n Winning Keeper! Up The Mighty Villa!👍

Like fergie said no player shld be paid more than the manager gd to see City doing that as its so fkn true. How cab u get respect obv superstars wae egos if they on 300k more than u a week lol

Pickford is on £140k a week mate 11:33

Is Jesse Lingard on Higher wages than Kaylor Navas?!?

I'm gonna put in another request for a hypothetical starting XI for the East African Federation, a proposed federation (big surprise there) of Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda. None of them are exactly what you'd call powerhouse footballing nations, with the exception of the DRC, but with plenty of players from those nationalities in the French and German leagues there's bound to be some diamonds in the rough. I did actually send Alfie a Twitter DM detailing my own attempt at an EAF first team, complete with a kit design and a subs bench, but since that didn't get a response I can only assume it got lost in the post. It's not like he'd ignore an unsolicited private message about putting together a national football team for a country that doesn't exist, right? Right? This is request number 16; calling it a streak feels a little disingenuous considering I miss days a lot of the time due to my health. I intend to go for as long as I can until Alfie either makes the video or tells me to bugger off. I'm sure you have your own opinions about which is more likely. =]

I think Kaylor Navas is the top earner at Forest.

Day 9 Dream OFC XI all the OFC teams played as one nation in international Football

People have a problem with the amount of money footballers make. I don’t think that is the problem because you should be trying to make as much money no matter what profession you take the problem people have with the salaries is that the fans I’ll get an absolutely ripped off to go into the stadiums, and when we are at the stadiums we get absolutely ripped off for a burger that tastes like it was made out of rats. They will charge me £7 for a Fosters. People would have a lot less problems with the amount of money footballers make if these prices was fixed because it’s not right when they take a massive proportion of my salary to watch my team lose every week I’m a QPR fan

ddg's contract isn't that insane for someone who is top 3 in his position in world football, especially considering that he was the outright best in the world when the contract was made

Truth be told, De Gea is in the same boat as Vardy, probably deserves whatever he's getting for the rest of his life for all the saving he's done.

7 Strangest international call ups. The likes of Joe Lapira for Republic of Ireland.
