Keeping the wage bill under control (as a % of revenue)
while the revenue gap (stadium, regular CL etc) was being
closed, has been a big part in Spurs usurping some of the
usual suspects
Not without issues in the recent past (may match the
transfer fee but do not match the wages etc) .
Wolves have signed Sasa Kalajdzic, the Austrian Crouchie.
It'll be interesting to see how he fits into their system.

Liverpool meltdown in 3...2...1...
That may be the "big six", but I wonder if there were other clubs with a wage bill that exceeded ours? I would have thought in particular seasons for sure. We also see the level of wages that Chelsea couldn't sustain (hence the need for continued propping up), and I suspect they are beyond the level they can sustain this season already..
Not in absolute terms, but many clubs for several
seasons have done so as a % of annual revenue.

Literally everyone else has outpaid us as a percentage of revenue.
It's worth noting that Everton and Leicester have been utterly ****ed by their approach to this.
Leicester in particular were often spending over 100% of their revenue on wages.
That's why they've signed a 3rd choice keeper on a free and sold Schmeichel and Fofana.
I'm not a massive fan of Rodgers, but there are other reasons why they're bottom.
Net spend is a measure of "balancing the books" ,
so all I can read from that is that Man Utd over
the past decade spent on average 110m pa.
Should the industry be more concerned that
Everton and Villa are in the top 10 ??

Really low fee, as he only had a year left on his contract.
Probably won't play very often, but their depth is insane now, except at left-back.
Imagine if he didn't score for two games in a row
Would we get anything like the bad faith takes we've seen about Sonny this season?
Not that anyone is interested but last year's beaten EFL Trophy finalists, Sutton Utd (my dad's team) are currently 1-0 up against Chelsea U21's. Don't recognise any of Chelsea's players but would be interesting to know how much that team cost....... I'm sure it won't end up with Sutton winning though.
