Premiership Big spenders Summer 2012

Hi again,


All this of spending big or not this summer’s transfer window – there are worries and complaints on most premier forums to be honest. It depends what sort of figures one uses. If you take and add up EXPENDITURE for new players and simply DEDUCT money when you sell your players off I think that’s the most reliable way of doing it, as all clubs ALSO release players. Therefore, on the table below the highest spenders (after balancing incoming & outgoing) appear first, those who sell more than buy will be near the bottom then …

Thoughts, both on Hammers and the others in comparison? …

With so many transfers being undisclosed these days I have to question how reliable these figures are dude

Southampton 33 mill ? Is that true ?!

im with alfie on this one, who the fcuk knows how much any spends these days?

yep, you're right, we'll never know the exact figures until one day everyone does their end of year accounts. It was just food for thought really. For example, it's a little ominous for Southampton and even Villa, if they don't produce the goods they could be in a spot of bother ...
