Akinbiyi - £2.2m transfer (plus wages) for 3 goals in 24 games (according to Wikipedia), although I thought he scored fewer than that for us.

Adebayor - c£1.8m wages for 1 goal in 7 games.

Allowing for inflation etc, I'd say that EA was a better deal (just) - given that he also got the assist for the Campbell goal at Reading

Thanks, I was being lazy. I didn't have an answer in my head, but suspected they might be on par. Of course, players seem to be criticised more quickly if the publicly known transfer fee is high, rather than the speculated wage package is high.

Inflation and their wages not necessarily being known (or without bonuses etc) probably make it hard to do much other than guess a bit.

Considering wages and transfer fees, has anyone done the maths as to who scored the more expensive goals (pounds spent vs goals scored), Adebayor or Akinbiyi?


Akinbiyi cost us £2.2m plus, say about £1m in wages, fo three goals, so just over £1m a goal. Adebayor has cost us about £1.5m in wages (if £70K a week is correct) for a single goal, so that makes him the more expensive, purely in goals scored terms.

But, just seen the post above, and allowing for inflation, there's probably not much in it.

Ok, a different answer. CC included inflation.

Anyway, I guess my point was Emmanuel Adebadbuy anyone?

(This is where somebody points out that he was useful behind the scenes for Palace etc etc. I am only being a bit playful really!)

Why so much hate for Campbell? Give him a decent run next season. He will score at least 20 goals next season if he stays fit.

Can I have some of what you're smoking or drinking please???
