The total salary of Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man C and Arsenal is £680 million or £136 million each on average. They occupy positions 3,4,5,7 and 20. Spurs and West Ham there (1 and 2 respectively) average £70 million each. Brentford at #10 which is hardly shabby spend just under £13 million this year.
I must admit I'd enjoy it if Arsenal stayed there propping up the rest of them. The only team on that list I have been close to being a supporter (I went to a few games when I lived there 40 years ago) is Brighton at #8 with a payroll of £37 million.
