Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 5482509, member: 405"] Chelsea with 13 guys sold so far this summer, raising 286M. Wow. And they have 8 signings that have cost them 280M. When you consider that the teams can amortize their signings over 5 years, their sales pretty much allow them to spend a billion dollars. While that would include agent fees and salaries, it gives them a ton of overhead to make more deals under Premier League rules. But because of past sins, they have to break even this summer in order to be able to register all their guys for Champions League. With only a couple days left, it's pretty much "mission accomplished". [/QUOTE]
