I am not going to lie, I find it childish seeing grown men wearing a football jersey with another man's name on it

So who else is ordering that Ronaldo 7 Jersey?

Buying the league
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A bargain too, at 20m

Facking moron
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Quite clearly the highest wage budget in the league by a country mile as well as the highest net spend in the last 5 years
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We've also averaged 700m revenue per year for the last 5 years...Which is by far the highest in the league.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2 years ago you outperformed us in revenue streams by 22m. Last season it was 24m. So to say you have BY FAR the highest revenue streams in the league isnt really true.

That being said fair play to your owners for investing year in year out. I know a lot you guys have your gripes about them (and probably rightly so as you guys know your club best) but from outsiders like myselfs point of view they are pumping money into the playing side of the club, which as a fan is all that matters really.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah apologies, the data I was looking at is in different bloody currencies >.< Yours are in EUR and ours are in USD, which is why the gulf was so big. Haven't done the conversion, but I suspect it'll be about even on average

Even accounting for that though, we're still one of the highest earning clubs, if not the highest, in the country.

Yeah certainly the highest although ourselves in particular have really bit into that disparity the last few years. Nobody to blame but ourselves for the disparity for standing still in the 90s.

Ive always said the same thing, I have no issue with utd spending big as they have essentially earned it through hard work both on and off the field over a sustained period of time. What baffles me is how we barely spend a penny (net wise) whilst you guys can go way beyond that almost year after year.

Maybe that says more about our owners than anything else at the minute. Cant deny being jealous of the 3 signings you have made. Outstanding business. I still back us to win the league though. Not changing my mind now!

Nope, not at all - this is where I was looking

https://www.statista.com/statistics/267735/revenue-of-manchester-united/

https://www.statista.com/statistics/251158/revenue-of-liverpool-fc-by-stream/

https://www.statista.com/statistics/251154/revenue-of-manchester-city-by-stream/

Just didn't occur to me to check currency, assumed they were all the same

I also now realise that in the heading of each page it says the currency, not just on the graph. I haven't had a good one here

At this juncture, Jay, it would be best to keep anything that might ignite and explode away from your computer.
