Quote: SomersetSaint "Where do people feel Arnold should fit within the salary cap? It was rumoured on a previous thread that he was wanting to be earning as much as Long. Is that a farcical amount, or realistic, given that he is maybe the most exciting player that Saints have produced since, ummm, Alex Murphy? He is certainly not the finished article yet, but has the potential to be outstanding, and has shown enough already to be considered Saints most dangerous player. I think he should expect to be one of the top earners in the side when his contract is offered.'"
We should'nt make him one of the top earners until he has shown he can move the team around the park for a full season. If Offiah has brainwashed him into thinking he deserves Long's wage, then he's going to be in for a big shock as well as a possible transfer.
If, come this time next year, he's played the full season at 7 and done what is asked of him, then the upgrade in the contract will come. Anything before that is ridiculous if you ask me.
