They go to Chelsea or Liverpool because they can get trophies AND money.
Given the (hyperthetical) choice between trophies OR money, imo they'd choose the £80k weekly wage (and therefore a club like west ham) rather than winning trophies on £15-£20k a week.
That is a false analogy as the difference in wages like that is extremely rare. 60-65K pw difference between wage offers and undermines what you're saying. Take mercenary Lucas Neil 35K liverpool with the promise of a rise on performance criteria and 60k Spammers. Even the wage offers at Spurs and Spam were closer for Bent.
