I don't understand why you'd think it's gone down. We've bought more than we've sold, so what Mahrez earned is now totalled by 2-3 of the new players. Factor in yearly wage increases and new deals and we will likely be at least at the same wage level.

I‘m certainly not saying the wage bill has gone down significantly, but I‘m pretty sure it has gone down to some extent.

 

Whether we‘ll be paying more over the coming years is pure guess work, maybe you‘re right. But following the current trend, it‘s highly likely wages in the Premier League in general are going to continue to rise, not just ours.

 

In the end, it‘s not about the wages in total, but moreso putting them in relation to the national and international competition out there.

And? We'll be below Everton and West Ham most probably when all the new ones are released. Team with 9th/10th biggest wage bill finishes 9th/10th shocker.

 

Plus, it doesn't take into account the "premier league tax". 50k per week here doesn't get you what £50k a week gets you in Germany or Spain in terms of quality.

And...

it’s a Leicester City Forum, and an article that just come out. Didn’t realise topics have to get your seal of approval.

Didn't we all give massive wage increases to the title winners? Or am I imagaging it? 

 

 

I was certainly never part of any such thing!

Makes you realise we’re not quite getting the best out of our players, even if it is a pretty bloated squad.

7th highest in the Premier league which seems reasonable for a team that won the title the year before. Hopefully leveled off a bit now Mahrez, Slimani, Musa etc off the books. 

 

Will become an issue if we continue to finish mid table though.

So going by your thinking of recent champions pay hire wages. 

 

Dose that mean spuds players pay spuds to play for them.

If we have the 15th biggest wage bill then that must mean, because of ffp, we have the 15th biggest turnover In the world? 

 

 

So does that make us the 15th biggest club in the world?
