I'm too busy imagining a Norwegian living like a hobo on the streets with 50k in his pocket 
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer earns more than Jurgen Klopp

That’s why you’ve gotta give City so much credit even though they’ve ‘bought the league”. You can have all the money in the world like us and still be absolutely shite.
And someone still expects this moron Woodward to make things right? Appalling charlatan that will destroy this club.
I don't believe that.
One thing’s for certain, a large portion of our fan base is gullible as foooook.
Remember, Rooney's reported wages ranged from £300,000 a week to one billion dollars, so 'Ole's £7m' is perhaps divided between OGS & his staff.
This isn't true and you're all fecking idiots.
Better in his pocket than the owners.
It's a fitting salary for the manager of Manchester United. When you're the biggest around, you still pay the largest wage. It makes sense.
Some people here acting as if it's their money.

Man you people sure do hate Ole now
Hopefully not true.
But what's really disapointing is how the caf and fans have turned on Ole.. give the guy the summer and 6 months at least. There's nothing else out there anyway imo, and he will buy young (not ashley, presumably) so it's not a crisis if he can't turn the corner. We just...go again.
We knew some of the players were rotten, others not good enough.
I also believe, correct me if I'm wrong, that since Ole took over he got the third highest points, behind City and Liverpool only, despite the disasterous form towards the end.
Anyway, who cares what he earns. I'm sure Darmian is on double what he is.
Rant over

We should sack him and appoint hipster selection de jour De Ligt as Player manager.
The responses to this is hilarious, even if it was true - which i doubt, why do you care? Why are you getting so riled up about it? You don't make the salary decisions and nor are you privvy to anyone's contract at any club. Man United fans are hilarious.
Yup. I remember the days when fans obsessing about player salaries seemed like a new low. Now they’re totting up how much managers are paid. FFS.
For match going fans it is their money, if you buy a shirt that’s money. If you buy a TV subscription to watch United that’s your money. How can you not see that?
But.. but.. I thought the Glazers don't like to spend money?
Mou was supposedly on 15m, so we are atleast saving money
You’d be surprised how poorly run sone of the Fortune 500 companies are run. Most only care if the money is coming in or not. They do not believe in non-tangible improvements or creating a positive work environment.
-Seeing Solskjaer at the bench, that sends shivers down your spine. We'll pay whatever he demands.-
Given we're probably still paying him I doubt it!
Think of it that way.
This is the man who is responsible for the greatest moment in your life as a fan of Manchester United, for those who were around, you’ll never have it as good as that day ever again.
As far as I’m concerned it’s just bonus for that goal.

The manager should be the highest paid in the team but with our wage structure that would be suicide
Haha that's ludicrous
to be honest, Kane, Son, Erikssen together probably = one Sanchez
So that's another massive payout before Christmas. Nice.
I reckon it'll be September.
Wouldn't trust that source, for one thing.
But, seriously, if true - what's so outrageous about it?
Do people expect the manager of Manchester United to make significantly less than those of Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea? He's got no credentials, so should be working for three square meals and a pack of fags?
Jose allegedly raked in more than Pep, for what it's worth.

Nah, you don't. The healthy remuneration stops as soon as you hit the regular jobs. There they pay bare minimum and sign most staff up to fixed term or zero hour contracts.
I suspect it’s true. We are a modern joke of a club.
Everything about the club is absolutely fecked.

Wouldn't be surprised we don't really pay on merit..
I don't care either way. Under performing on the pitch is a lot worse than couple of millions paid to Ole..

Well, to exculpate Woodward a bit here: Imagine how the fans would have reacted if Man United had announced back in late March that Solskjaer would leave the club in the summer because they would not pay him 7 million pounds... after having won against PSG in the CL and 14 of the past 19 matches.
You have to keep in mind when the decision was made to pay Solskjaer that wage.

The state of this thread. The Caf is slowly morphing into twitter with outrage over everything and anything, verified or not.
If it's true... Well done!
Still not confirm, however..
Believable story actually... knowing how the club is being run.

There a few on here who will be wishing for United to fail next season if Ole isn’t sacked. How United fans can want Ole to fail as manager of United is totally baffling to me. You can be concerned, you’re allowed to have doubts, but some seem to actually dislike him as manager which is something I’m struggling to understand.
Klopp signed his contract with Liverpool when exactly?
You willingly do that. But you can't hold them accountable for it. They're still gonna make money.
But even if it’s true, so what? If Ed thinks he’s worth that, why should it bother fans?
If anything, those who don’t like Ed should be happy because if he has to sack Ole soon United will lose more money, he will look even more clueless and the Glazers might start having second thoughts about him. I don’t get why this is being used to bash the club, if anything this shows future prospective managers that the manager is highly valued at United.
Talksport: Fred the Red is on more than Mighty Red and Stamford the Lion.
Assuming the article is correct, what difference does it make if Ole earns a higher basic salary than Klopp or any other manager for that matter?
It's true like the 30 players they said we're going to sign is true.

I don’t work in business, so that does come as a genuine surprise to me. I always assumed that self made people would be more sensible about things like this. I guess my assumption was wrong.
We make a lot of money. Not a surprise the employees are well paid, epically the most important one.
