Trolling?....he is actually right on this one.
He's kinda criticizing Chelsea imo.
"oh we cant afford that to do that, it would kill us financially" Maybe if you didn't buy 20 players for 30+million and then offer them 100K each, maybe you could Jose, maybe you could.
"We would have killed our stability with financial fair play and killed the stability in our dressing room, because when you pay that much to a 19-year-old kid - a good player, fantastic player - but when you pay that amount of money, the next day, we would have had players knocking on our door.
"They would have been saying, 'How is it possible I play 200 games for this club, won this and that, yet a 19-year-old comes here and gets more money than I get?"'
Quite good reasoning tbh!

People always forget about the wage demands. Agreeing a fee is the easy part but keeping the kid's expectations in check by saying "no, you're not a superstar, stop asking for superstar wages" is closer to the truth for a lot of big deals for youngsters.
I see United actually playing him regularly since Evra is gone so his wage deal actually warrants being a first team player, as opposed to being paid the same wages for being a fringe Chelsea player. . . . .

He jumped before he was pushed.
These days, the media circle anything they can make a story of like Vultures and no one has purposely pointed out United signing him before Chelsea and questioned why. So to save face, he's acted first and pointed attention directly on United for paying outrageous demands a world class heavy-weight would ask for, to a 19 year old who will be playing cover to Daley Blind for the next season or two.
Got him down to a T.

Whatever he does is lapped by many fans, hence he is some sort of Media god.
He speaks non sense and people will say "yeah typical Jose lol". He is not trolling anyone, he is giving his opinion on why he couldn't sign Luke Shaw just like Fergie said he didn't sign Hazard because his agent wanted 7 Million.

I sure hope not considering Lahm earns around 10m Euro's per year
Well that's internet for you..
Meet Andreas Christensen, the 18-year-old Chelsea defender earning a fortune who has never played for the first team... and is a long way off joining Jose's ranks | Mail Online
Hopefully this deal is not putting any pressure on Chelsea financially.

But that will be ok as he is not a Mourinho signing as that was the excuse that was given about Hazard being on so much money.
The Daily Mail? Really?
Also I think you would notice that their is a huge difference between 20k p/w and 100k p/w. That's assuming that his wages are even true in the first place considering the source is the Daily Fail and Chelsea have refuted it pretty strongly
Pretty sure quite a few people drew a dichotomy between Hazard and Shaw on the basis of what each of them had achieved in the game prior to joining Chelsea and United respectively. Also worth noting the difference in competition that each club faced for the players signature which inevitably contributes to higher wages and transfer fee
Also FYI, Christensen will be part of the first-team squad this year ... 20k p/w for a squad player in a CL team is pretty fair
You used Metro to prove Chelsea were interested in signing Shaw. Still we are all getting numbers from papers, so yeah 20K for a academy player is ridiculous.
And 75K for ManUtd first choice LB, which is the biggest club in England by far and among the top 2-3 biggest club in the world seems perfectly reasonable.
