2006 - 2011 Transfer League Table 2006 to 2011 This Transfer League Table is a record of the amount of money spent in transfer fees by English Premier League Football Clubs over the last five seasons. The table also shows new investment which club owners have made available to their club managers. The new investment can be seen season by season on the Club page from the Teams Transfer menu. The "Purchased" column in this table shows the money spent on players in transfer fees by all the English Premier League for the last five seasons. The "Sold" column shows the money received by the football club from the sale of players in the same period. In the Nett" column the total of transfer fees received from the sale of Players is subtracted from the total money spent in transfer fees on purchasing players since 2003. This Nett figure is the "new investment" made available each season to the manager to buy players. The "per season" column is the "Nett" total divided by the number of years that have passed since 2006 giving an average of the money spent in transfer fees by each premiership club each season since 2006. # 2006 - 2011 Purchased Gross Sold Nett Per Season 1 Manchester City £471,670,000 £94,050,000 £377,620,000 £75,524,000 2 Chelsea £199,500,000 £107,000,000 £92,500,000 £18,500,000 3 Tottenham £232,300,000 £140,100,000 £92,200,000 £18,440,000 4 Liverpool £296,240,000 £206,780,000 £89,460,000 £17,892,000 5 Sunderland £146,550,000 £81,725,000 £64,825,000 £12,965,000 6 Manchester United £217,200,000 £156,550,000 £60,650,000 £12,130,000 7 Aston Villa £155,050,000 £99,650,000 £55,400,000 £11,080,000 8 Stoke City £54,725,000 £10,920,000 £43,805,000 £8,761,000 9 Fulham £65,675,000 £29,475,000 £36,200,000 £7,240,000 10 Wolves £45,525,000 £9,225,000 £36,300,000 £7,260,000 11 Bolton £52,150,000 £31,750,000 £20,400,000 £4,080,000 12 Everton £64,750,500 £48,250,000 £16,500,500 £3,300,100 15 QPR £14,850,000 £1,700,000 £13,150,000 £2,630,000 14 West Bromwich Albion £46,585,000 £39,160,000 £7,425,000 £1,485,000 15 Wigan £62,500,000 £60,200,000 £2,300,000 £460,000 16 Swansea £6,855,000 £6,710,000 £145,000 £29,000 17 Norwich City £3,475,000 £9,050,000 -£5,575,000 -£1,115,000 18 Blackburn Rovers £30,552,000 £59,690,000 -£29,138,000 -£5,827,600 19 Arsenal £85,150,000 £113,000,000 -£27,850,000 -£5,570,000 20 Newcastle £63,100,000 £116,150,000 -£53,050,000 -£10,610,000 West Ham £108,570,000 £68,225,000 £40,345,000 £8,069,000 Hull £25,300,000 £9,225,000 £16,075,000 £3,215,000 Middlesbrough £84,700,000 £64,850,000 £19,850,000 £3,970,000 Birmingham City £64,875,000 £66,850,000 -£1,975,000 -£395,000 Burnley £13,440,000 £10,575,000 £2,865,000 £573,000 Blackpool £4,700,000 £7,250,000 -£2,550,000 -£510,000 Leeds United £2,100,000 £12,800,000 -£10,700,000 -£2,140,000 Portsmouth £77,100,000 £111,020,000 -£33,920,000 -£6,784,000
What you are saying then is that swansea are the fifth best team when looking at money generated from income from player sales Vs expenditure on player purchases. Or as your table lists it the 16 worst team out of 20 teams. Not bad really.....
