It isn't just us, every club has them. They stand out more at the big clubs because the contracts are bigger. Nobody bats an eyelid if Joe Bloggs is on a a 5 year contract on £5k per week for Scunthorpe.I'm just going to assume every club has these type of sponge players now, surely it cannot just be an Arsenal problem.
Off the top of my head Utd have Phil Jones, Bailly never gets seen, I'll say Ake for City, Liverpool have Ox maybe? Chelsea must have a load surely?
Cannot just be us..
I have often though that football fans make WAY too big a deal out of it. No club in the history of football has had a 100% success rate with transfers so you are always going to get a few players who don't work out kicking around on decent contracts.
