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 5 giving an average of the money spent in transfer fees by each premiership club each season in the last five Seasons.

Certainly debunks the myth of Stoke having a shoestring budget.

Might just be me but I've never heard anyone say that.

Many suggest Pulis over achieved with Stoke and are often the go to comparison when seeing what a smaller less wealthy club can achieve. They dont seem aware they are amongst the highest net spenders in the Premier League.

Doesn't factor in Palace's sale of Zaha either unless they're getting paid in instalments over a number of years.

That's because Palace sold Zaha last season you silly sausage!

So you think Cardiff and Hull have spent 50 million in one season and Cardiff have raked in 12 million despite having not sold anyone worth selling for about 3 years?

Hull were in the Prem in 09/10 and 10/11. I can't say about your amount, but you have re sold Cornelius, and prob recouped some. It may not be accurate? But I'm sure you now understand where I'm coming from!

No I don't

It's the spending of the clubs that are currently in the premiership over the last 5 season. it doesn't say spending while in the premiership...

If you look at it, it doesn't say anything at all apart from the OP's original headline! One can only come to the totally obvious conclusion that they are premier league spends. Otherwise the Zaha sale would certainly be there! It's nothing to do with structured payments etc as silly sausage Barnett suggests! Come on, your one of the more sensible posters on here. Surely you can admit you've got it wrong this time!

There is absolutely no way Cardiff have recouped anywhere near £13 million this season. We've sold Gestede for a minimal fee, Conway for a minimal fee, and Cornelius who no one can decide whether he's a loan or a full transfer.

Hull spent 15 ill in the summer and 10 mil in January.

Palace's figures don't add up at all I'll agree with that, the only thing I can think of is I've seen one source calling Zaha 9.75mil up front (although that was a really dodgy source)

Hmmm! Even if it was 9.75m it doesnt take into account the sale of Victor Moses and Nathaniel Clyne for 2.5m each and Jose Fonte for 800k in the last 5 years. I think we can safely say that the site where it was taken from is a load of shit!

Yep I think that's the only thing we can really conclude

did we get 10 million for Parkin ?
who the f**k did we get 13 million for?
must be made up by a 12 year old
