Dafuq is Llorente doing in that picture.Look at the some of the talent they've picked up though:

Him signing for Juve was a big deal at the time iirc, remember before he got marginalised in his last season at Bilbao for refusing to sign a new deal he was great for them. Helped rip United to shreds in the EL as well.Dafuq is Llorente doing in that picture.
I’d say it’s more likely the £400k figure is including a signing on fee and incentives while Di Marzio’s figure is probably the real “basic” wage. Ramsey’s agent has probably leaked that figure to Ornstein to make himself look the dogs bollocks. What Ramsey eventually earns pre tax is probably somewhere in the middle of the two.
As a comparison Emre Can got £7m a year and a £14m signing on fee. That’s roughly £10.5m per year averaged out over the length of the contract or £200k per week before tax.
What’s happened to the Reply box mate. I have to uncheck rich text in preferences, as someone above posted.
Basically 90% of the elite clubs were interested.
DiMarzio says the signing on fee for Ramsey is €3.7 million, payable July 10. Translating that to British pounds, that would just be about £15,500 per week over the four year contract. Still about £134,000 per week short of £400,000 when added up. DiMarzio's figures make a whole lot more sense.
Just about everyone outside the U.K. is reporting the same figure as DiMarzio. It seems to be mostly British outlets reporting the silly figure.
I can't do links because the forum is messed up for me and I can only post without the rich text function, but here is DiMarzio's English language report:

(Edit: Ah, it did the link for me!)
Get a grip that’s over a 10 year period.
What are you trying to prove, that we should be challenging City’s £900m+ squad because our £400m+ squad should be higher because we got Kola and Lich on a free.
Here’s our two benches at the weekend. QED
City subs bench . . . Sane, Silva, Mahrez, Otamendi, Jesus
Arsenal subs bench. . . . Elneny, Willock, Nketiah, Mavrop, Lich
Well then I can only conclude Di Marzio is way off with his salary. Emre Can got a €16m signing on fee and €5m after tax on a four year contract. That would mean he’s being paid €4m more than Ramsey over the length of their contracts. Highly unlikely.
No mate they would have played. And people like AMN, Iwobi, Mustafi and Kola might have dropped to the subs bench. Ramsey is leaving and Özil seems to be eternally injured or sick these days like Vincent Company.Not like me to play devils advocate but they have no injuries. If we didn’t have any injuries our bench could’ve had Ramsey, Özil, Xhaka, Sokratis, Aubameyang, Bellerin and Welbeck.

It doesn’t improve things that much, I suggest you look at their’s again.
Because he was free.
He's our highest scoring midfielder ever. And missed over an entire season through injury (maybe this is a knock against him, but also means your numbers don't mean much).In 11 years here, Ramsey scored 38 league goals. That's an average of about 3-4 goals a season. He also 46 assists in that time, an average of about 4 a season.
You have to take off the nostalgia glasses and realise that in the cold light of day, Ramsey's demands didn't represent a good return of investment.
I agree our benches would be closer if we had no injuries. But for about 12 years or more we’ve lurched from one injury crisis to another at this club, year after year. And nothing’s changed. And when the calibre of your squad drops off rapidly, after just so many players, this is what happens. Those benches I posted were real not hypothetical and Kompany has played 14 matches this season, Özil 18 . . . so not a lot in that.Özil is out of favour and Ramsey leaving is neither here nor there when your point was about current benches. With a fully fit squad like City currently have (excluding the cripple Kompany) our bench would probably be Cech, Mustafi/Holding, Guendouzi, Welbeck, Özil, Suarez, Ramsey. Not as good as City’s but not half as bad as you made it seem in your post.
You make decent points so I don’t know why you undermine them by being disingenuous.
