Oh, transfermarkt is perfectly fine, and your general point about EPL money is definitely right -- just don't think it makes any sense to count pure transfer outlay without taking into account player sales.
You aren't "spending big" if you're spending 55m out of player trading revenue of 130m; you are (maybe) if you're spending 50m out of player trading revenue of 15m.
- smcl 4y agoYeah I just wanted to show how despite being a smaller club punching above their weight locally, they still had a chunk of resources to spend that would put them among the elite even in the big five European leagues. I don't know if net player spend is a particularly good way to look at that either, but the wage bills you posted were pretty interesting. I didn't think that kind of info would be easily accessible. It's nice to encounter people who want to talk football on HN though :)
