Does more money make you a better player?

Avram Grant the former Ghana coach seems to think so. "The salary of players in the Ghana Premier League is not good. With this kind of salary, you won’t get certain qualities from the players so government must do something about it,” Grant told Metro TV. Is the idea that a player becomes better or more talented when he earns more not totally ridiculous? Is the idea that the government should finance employees of privately owned companies not ridiculous?

If at all more government funding for football would become available in Ghana should it not be used for better pitches and facilities at grassroots level than for subsidizing private companies and with that the pockets of it's owners? Under Mr Grant management the Black Stars fell from place 34 to place 57 on the FIFA ranking. Could this have been prevented if the GhanaFA had paid him more?

Jean Deza has to pay... a lot! Jean Deza is in big trouble. The scandal player who just "disappeared" from PFC Levski Sofia for more than one month now will probably have to pay big damages. The club already claimed with FIFA for financial compensation. Deza who earned around 700 euro per minute played during his stay at Levski, the Peruvian striker was the most expensive Levski player with a monthly salary of 18,000 euro. Most likely the FIFA DRC will order the player to pay Levski an amount equal to the remaining value of his contract. His contract would have expired in June 2018. It is not uncommon that the FIFA DRC will also order the player to pay unamortized costs of commission and replacement costs. Walking out of a club without valid reasons that justify such behaviour is stupid if not very stupid. Deza appears to be a player underestimated the effects of such actions.

Michael Carrick is apparently not part of Man Utd plans any more. His contract whichs expires at the end of this season and will most likely not be renewed. At least that is what can be concluded for Jose Mourinho words: "Let's be honest, Michael has a lot of skills, but he is not 30 anymore, and we can't just drop 5 years from his ID. I have really a good relationship with him. Let's wait to the end of the seasons and see what will happen.". Too old for Mourinho is not to old for Arsenal's manager Arsene Wenger who is interested in inviting Michael Carrick to join the London club. Wenger is not worried that the midfielder is past his due date. He needs an experienced player.
