I may have the wrong end of the stick -~Stoke are not short of money why not just pay the entire fee for Maxi in one go :unsure:
Maybe it suited us - pay in instalments ( we still get the money ) and accept a sell on . That’s what Chelsea and Ipswich did with Delap .

A shame he's gone, but he's left in the right way. As for 'only going to Stoke' all he's got on his CV in regards to English football is a relegation. Maybe the top Championship clubs saw him as top much of a risk. Another year of him playing at the same level and there's a good chance a bigger club will come in for him

I do like Maxi. Sorry to see him go, but I think there were probably better teams that were after him. Stoke really are a poor choice.
If there were better teams, why did he not sign for them....? Probably because only Stoke were prepared to meet our price. He only played a dozen games, we got relegated with him in the team, BUT we got our money back as well as a potential future payout. After all the criticism over the Hardie and Randell clauses this one possibly works in our favour.....🤫😉

He will always be rightly remembered for giving us those 8 glorious minutes of dreaming of going all the way, after putting us in front up at the Etihad

Further, remember the credit he got early on for celebrating after his defending? And rightly so, too. A fantastic player who deserves the best

I wanted to see him do well, push for promotion, not another relegation fight. (Couldn't care less about Stoke).
yeah too many players have abandoned the ship at the end of season, hopefully we pass them on the way up at the end of the season, whilst they are heading the way down 😃

As I understand it, players are treated as depreciating assets over the course of a contract. So if Maxi is cost £1.5m he will be valued (for accounting purposes) at £1m after season 1 and £500,000 after season 2. I wonder if most fees are paid in installments so the cash payments roughly mirror the depreciation?

That’s correct re the accounting treatment. Re the instalments think they are each individually negotiated. I know that with Adam Stansfield where he was sold for £15 m that Birmingham in the first year only paid £1M but he’ll be in their books at more than that .
