Interesting that Numbnuts didn't select the corresponding seasons..now I can see why
Numbnuts Selected Players.............................West Ham Top Buys the same year
David Silva £26 million bought in July 2010...........Pablo Barrera..........£4.3 million
Sterling £57 million bought in July 2015..............Dimitri Payet..........£13 million
Aguero £23 million bought in July 2011...............Kevin Nolan.............£3 million
Man City spend £98 million West Ham £20 million Just on Numbnuts stated Players.
For a wider view on those seasons this is a bit of an eye opener...
2010 City gross spend .....£165 million................West Ham.........£14 million
2011 City gross spend......£82 million.................West Ham......... £11 million
2015 City gross spend......£187 million................West Ham..........£47 million
..........................total £434 million..............................Total..£72 million
A slight difference of £362 million and to add insult to injury
In 2017 our Gross Spend was £51 million...........Man City's was £285 million
Another £234 million ahead of us..........
But they have also lost a small fortune on players as well...similar to us
Now it all makes sense why they ripped us a new arse on Saturday.....
