The algorithm knows me too well to have shown this video. I'm very much into football finance. A few things about the video; I believe you've used general inflation numbers as opposed to football specific inflation in the sale values. Football inflation had grown exponentially against normal inflation. Take Shearer moving for £15m to Newcastle years ago. Adjusted for football specific inflation he cost an equivalent of over £200m today. This doesn't disprove much of the video but I think you'd find the amount of big fees were never as rare as you'd think. That said it is the case that there is a rise in the amount of of big money sales with players moving at a level higher than what the market would have previously dictated. There are a few reasons for this. Neymar as mentioned was definitely a catalyst and contributed to an even faster rise in football specific inflation. Another is the people buying football clubs and their reason for doing so. It would be fair to say that in the 90's speculation on football revenue growth fuelled a growth in player sale values that revenue had to catch up with. And it mostly did (hence the galactico era not bankrupting Real Madrid). The millionaires of the time wanted to be involved in the growth and also "pedestal themselves" to local communities. This along with technology advanced the game to more of a global audience. Yesterday's millionaires simply paved the way for a market where today only Billionaires can take part. Today We are back in a new period where speculation has taken over and the game again needs to catch up with its own player values. I'm not saving whether it will or it won't, but for Me this is the case. Billionaires and even Nation states are speculating on the furtherance of the growth of the game vs typical/general growth/inflation. 1 difference is that the Billionaires care less about a rise in revenue and more about asset valuation. If a club can be bought for a a few hundred million or even a few billion, a billion spent on it and at the end it's worth 5 billion upwards, there are people who will try. Given other reasons they're being bought now such as "soft power", a simpler route into infrastructure and other commercial activity and community backing there is no reason to assume your benifits won't be seen by someone else. Another "problem" for player sale value increases are the very financial rules brought in to prevent it. Trying to over govern free markets always has such affects. You mentioned amortisation being a loophole. Ordinarily it's not and is a normal part of business. The issue is that financial rules are making it overly essential. A bubble has been created. I think it can be seen if looking hard enough in thr general market but it's so abundantly obvious in the youth player market - as you eluded to in the video. If you "swap" (buy and sell) two young players between 2 clubs simply to comply with rules for say £10m and spread their costs on the accounts over their contract period of 5 years at £2m, this year you make £8m. Next year your £2m worse off (if other spending remains the same) than you were last year. So if you attempt the same "trick", both clubs find themselves needing to deal at £12m. If players were not being traded simply to comply with rules such inflation would be happening (mostly) at market determined rates and not artificial ones. Another issue financial rules are creating is that they are stifling investment. They are protectionist tools protecting "legacy" clubs aimed at preventing another City or Chelsea. I mentioned earlier about Billionaires buying clubs. Many Billionaires by their very nature would believe themselves capable of buying a club and not just watching its value grow of its own accord but believe themselves capable of being successful with it on the field to help that process along and further it. With that ability essential having been taken away there will be less interested parties. The previous model would be to spend Ones own money on Ones own football club, get it winning and then revenue would increase to a point where the club was self sustainable at a higher level than it was previously (like City is today). Players moving for free at the end of their contracts has risen in occurance but this has happened before too. I believe this shows a coming to the end of the "speculation period" I mentioned previously. No One seems to be prepared to start moving into the £200m - £300m player territory (though that time is inevitable One day in ordinary circumstances). The issue is that We can't be sure if this end is natural or artificial because of the rules. It doesn't seem to be natural as there seems to be speculation elsewhere and average player values are continuing to rise because of the rules. If the financial rules continue to stifle growth and investment We may never get to the point where players move for upwards of £200m, but where all "average" players are valued at £100m and cycled around like cattle at basically set prices to conform with the rules. Sorry for length of comment, but this couldn't be done in a few lines. To sum up - It's my opinion - that most of what you had in the video was natural market periods but outside of that a bubble has been created by protectionist rules that makes what is happening now and what will happen harder to understand and predict. I believe things will get worse. Graphs go up and down, and try to catch up with One another but bubbles inevitably pop.

Ronaldos move to Juve was not worth for 100 Mio

Psg signing neymar broke the transfer market it’s impossible to buy a superstar only on a free also teams have way too much money than they know what to do with and no clear strategy which is why I think teams are willing to shell out for average players

All good

The quality of this video for a channel with so few subscribers is wild, keep this up and you will definitely have a top channel on your hands.

Good video Simba!

Spoilers: Mudryk is crap

This guy deserves 100+k subs great video

i can’t believe you said fdj was worth it

2:59 de jong didnt worth the money he has done nothing to prove his price tag for barcelona i would add him to the players who were worth at the time but didnt live up to the expectations

Great stuff

bro finally posted

How do you compare a 6 with a 10? Chelsea and Man U are the worst examples.

barbies now

Farda Wenger. The Grandwizard of football, they called him cheap but he knew what lay ahead. Amazing content again! 🎉🎉

I would say that pogba was worth the money at the time when he went to Manchester United. At Juventus he was one of the best midfielders in the world, definitely didn’t live up to expectations

Atlético Madrid dropping 60M for Lemar and over 130M for Joao Felix is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen because Simeone was saying Atlético could not spend that much money due to their budget a while before that. Shit was hilarious lmao.

Simba just elevated his game 🔥

Hmm maybe this is why Chelsea are giving all their players 7 year + contracts 🤔 the athletic is calling for you y.simbs

Barcelona destroyed the global transfer market and are now in complete financial disarray, warning sign?

If we ever went back to British-style football, the problem would be solved overnight. In a highly physical game, where 'superstars' are not protected by the referees, their value plummets. Nobody would pay astronomical prices for a star player who could be marked out of a match by an ordinary player, and who would be vulnerable to injury. In the British game, the 'superstar' wouldn't be allowed to flounce around the pitch with the ball at his feet. He'd be closed down instantly - and not gently..

Not to even mention wages

This is the secret best football channel

"Babe wake up, Young Simba uploaded again" 🗣️🔥😭💯🙏.

So Barcelona basically began all these nonsensical pricing fiasco???

Number 35

Fun fact: Nicolas pepe was NOT a benchmark transfer. In fact, the owners of Arsenal and Lille were good friends, so he decided to "help" him by overpaying for a player

When a club known worldwide for its reluctance to buy superstar players and reliance on solid academy products starts buying players for the 100s of millions of euros, you know something is very wrong

Anytime psg assembles a dangerous team, Real Madrid is there to knock them out😂

The difference between a club like man city and a club like PSG is breathtaking. Slow and steady growth, comprised of both big signings as well as focus on the academy. Investing in infrastructure, and having insance recuriting and business acumen. I mean look at Julian Alvarez, signed for 20m, played two years winning the treble and helping complete the 4-peat, and then sold for almost 100m. That is how you run a club. At the beginning, city just tried to throw money at their problems, but now they actually seem to have learned and gotten smarter. All of their signings are to fill gaps in their squad, PSG on the other hand just wants to sign all the biggest names.

Now apparently he’s the saviour

The points got even bigger with the first throphieless year in more than a decade

Michael BACKwards

Liverpool fan here. I love Palmer's game. He is sensational. One of the players I really want in LFC.

Who’s seeing this after all the news about Clearlake

Amad Diallo U think that's good job done

And Southgate had him warming the bench 95% of the time 😂😂

used to be a crazy neymar fan. had hopes of him winning the ucl, wc and some ballon dors. after neymar gave up on foootball, I also completely stopped caring about football

yo bro i love ur editing and ur commentary but you should change the music to a more mysterious one like the one SunnyV2 uses

Barto should be tried at the hauge

Mourinho was the right manager with the wrong players and wrong ownership. Mourinho would have been best to come in directly after Ferguson. But ultimately United fails because they are no longer run by football people.

Johnson Kevin Thomas Timothy Thomas Joseph

Thomas Kenneth Lopez David Brown Sharon

There seems to be some video between ur ads

Next Frank lampard,if he stays injury free he will brake records,hope he stays at Chelsea,thanks pep

With Saudi Arabia on the scene, I think psg is finished. I'd sell if I were him before what happens to Newcastle happens to him
