And here’s another which doesn’t.

Perennial PL strugglers CP and Stains have also blown colossal sums on transfer fees, whilst shown no progress as clubs.

What gives? Are Not So Bright and Freedman giving Parish shit advice?

Really surprised to see Bayern Munich that high. Always thought German clubs had a wage cap ?

Yours are a different time frame, In think...
From your site....
Figures have been released for the 2016-17 campaign, with some surprises among the higher and lower spenders.

My Figures are for the 2017 financial year

It's the total so maybe they have more staff?

The Swiss Ramble always provides some interesting stats. This covers season 2016/17 season so is a little out of date, but having brought in the likes of Meyer on a deal that equates to £170k a week, and tipped even more lorryloads of cash into the Swivel-Eyed Gravity Whore's coffers to keep him there, I can't see that their 78% wages to turnover will be much improved from this perilous position.

As we know, CPFC2010 failed to file their accounts on time last year, missing the deadline by several months, and faced being dissolved by HMRC as a result. I'm sure there was nothing to hide (from the owner who's company is called Smoke and Mirrors), but it'll be interesting to see what % of Palace's turnover was being splurged into their players pockets last season.

I thought Southampton were 'the' model club, selling their talent at high prices (to Liverpool) and reinvest in their fantastic yoof set up.

Liverpool are the model club, the buy decent players and sell them as soon as they turn shite to Palace for massively inflated prices.

I would have thought PSG would be higher.

Me as well, don’t they have to pay much higher wages to get around tax?

Poor recruitment overall from Palace and S'ton

We all know who’s on huge wages at Palace and Leicester and we all know who delivers for those wages and who doesn’t.

I’m trying to think of which players Southampton have thrown big wages at because while they’re not bad the majority of the squad are bang average.

Southampton presumably have ongoing salary obligations to about FOUR managers, and each of their associated hangers-on. That has to have an impact.

Yeah, it's not so long ago that they were touting their template for good coaching at other clubs. Seems to have backfired somewhat.

Said it before and I'll say it again. When Palace finally release their accounts for last season (don't hold your breath folks) they will be a car CRASH of massive PROPORTIONS.

They were the only PL club whose 2017 accounts showed higher wages + player amortisation costs than turnover. They only avoided a big loss by selling players. They've sold no one of note since and seem to have bumped up the wage bill considerably.

It's why Poor Old Roy admitted that they were skint and couldn't make any decent signings. They are losing money, guaranteed.

It’s only going to get worse. Since their last audited accounts, they’ve signed:
Riedewald
Sakho
Kouyate
Guaita
Ayew
Meyer
Sorloth
Had a full financial year of payroll costs for Schlupp, Van Aanholt, Milivojevic.
Cut short the De Boer management team’s tenure.

Whilst saving the wages on Cabaye, Sako, Mandanda and Delaney,
