That's in the Fail so we're safe Can't see us selling both Llorente and Baston, so let's hope it's Baston sold.

please log in to view this image Chelsea won the title - and received almost £151m from the Premier League Chelsea were paid £150.8m by the Premier League after winning the 2016-17 title - 50% more than the top earners in 2015-16. The 2016-17 season was the first of the latest TV deal and saw a total of almost £2.4bn paid to the 20 clubs - up from £1.6bn last season. Bottom club Sunderland got £93.471m - more than the £93.219m 2015-16 winners Leicester pocketed the previous season. The figures are based on broadcast and commercial deals plus prize money. Funds from the Premier League's central commercial deals and overseas broadcast rights are shared equally - as is half of the domestic broadcast income. A quarter is paid out in prize money based on each club's league position and the other quarter in "facility fees" for each game broadcast on UK television. Arsenal were the top earners in 2015-16 with £100.9m - but only the three relegated sides of Hull, Middlesbrough and Sunderland were paid less than that figure in 2016-17. The ratio between the highest and lowest totals paid by the Premier League to its clubs in 2016-17 was 1.61 to 1, the lowest among Europe's top leagues, which means the Premier League is more equal when it comes to sharing revenue than its rivals. The Premier League also paid out nearly £220m to Aston Villa, Cardiff, Fulham, Newcastle, Norwich, QPR, Reading and Wigan in parachute payments. Villa, Newcastle and Norwich - the relegated sides in 2016 - got almost £41m each.

Swansea City's Premier League payments from broadcast and central commercial income revealed The Swans picked up nearly £4million on the final day by leapfrogging Burnley and Watford Swansea City's late survival surge earned the club £103.1million from the Premier League's broadcast and central commercial income, their best return yet from a top-flight campaign. Paul Clement's side ended the season in 15th position in the final table, with their leapfrogging of Watford and Burnley on the final day earning the Welsh club the thick end of £4million in merit payments. The reasons why Fernando Llorente would be better off staying with Swansea City this summer Swansea's total payments match their league finish of 15th in terms of where they rank among their top-flight peers, and they are just shy of £10million better off than bottom club Sunderland. However, they are £47.7million worse off than champions Chelsea, who picked up £150.8million. please log in to view this image Paul Clement Of the five different sections of payments listed on the Premier League's official website, three of them are identical for all clubs. All 20 receive £35,301,989 from their equal share of domestic broadcast money, £39,090,596 from overseas TV and the central commercial income - from sponsors etc - is distributed at £4,759,404. The differential comes from the merit payments - decided by league position, as mentioned above - and facility fees. ADVERTISEMENT Swansea City waiting on formal bid from Turkish giants Galatasaray for Bafetimbi Gomis Facility fees are calculated on the number of times each club appears live on UK TV during the campaign. All clubs are guaranteed a sum for at least 10 live games. Swansea were shown live 10 times last season so their figure is £12,377,520. However, clubs who are shown more often earn more money for each additional game over the baseline figure. please log in to view this image Paul Clement kept Swansea in the top-flight (Photo: Huw Evans Agency) So, for example, Liverpool were shown the most often of all teams in the Premier League. An incredible 29 of the 38 league fixtures played by Jurgen Klopp's side were shown live, and their total facility fees stand at £33,963,097. That is some £21,585,577 more than the Swans, divide that figure by 19 for the additional number of live games and it works out at a princely £1,136,083 per game. Striker linked with Swansea City makes move to Bundesliga side Hertha Berlin The figures reveal just how much of a difference the massive new £5billion broadcast deal which came into effect for the 2016-17 campaign. Swansea's prize money for finishing 12th last season was £75.3million, nearly £28million down on the new figures. Even their Premier-League best eighth-place finish of 2015 only reaped £77.6million.

long term and a lot of money. Just hope I haven't seen them play their last game in a white shirt. the money will be worth it in the long run.
We had £4m extra by finishing above Watford and Burnley. We should improve their contracts and give them £2m each on top of whatever they earn.
totally agree will be money well spent. We already know what the will give us. Don't give them tht 4m, could be a loss of 100m plus.
Nailing them on new contracts would also be a huge PR spin to bring in quality players to play alongside them, while giving us the chance to slap a £35-£40m clause into Gylfi's contract. To replace them would cost the best part of £60m. As you say, definitely money well spent.
