Shows how much less we are paying players and how some clubs are not getting silverware based on the outlay that dwarfs our spend.
Will we be pushing for better players/higher wages or wait for the bubble to burst in the PL cash?
Wages table....

"Manchester United have yearly outgoings of £295.9million on wages,"
Not that bad when you consider just over half of that is for Sanchez

says liverpools is 207million, must be everyone employed by liverpool because i just added up all the main guys, some of which i didnt know was on that much and a few out on loan and it came to 118m
https://www.totalsportek.com/money/liverpool-player-salaries/
infact it was the full squad? 26 players karius n ings out on load :/
so dno where the other 80m + is coming from. Must be managers, coaches, directors, employees youth etc.
Where as not sure the other clubs are just player wages or not.

111m for all the players on this list that are still at the club https://www.totalsportek.com/money/liverpool-player-salaries/ pretty much our first team squad.
so dno where they get 207.5m from, almost double. Like i said it must involve literally everyone employed by the club if theres any truth to it.

I imagine a lecturer on footbal finance at the University of Liverpool looks beyond totalsportek to compile his figures.
Still, a mention of sources wouldn't go amiss, as well as whether those numbers are gross or net. His charts do state City's and United's are 2018 figures, so I presume the other clubs' are from 2017 and will currently be even higher than the available figures.

For comparison, Real Madrid's latest wage bill was £350M, Barça's £301M, Atlético's £158M.

I remember a couple of years ago Liverpools wage bill jumped by nearly £50m from £165m in the year after Klopp took over. So those figures just published probably aren't that far out. Probably slightly under if anything.

so a 25 man squad on 207.5m a year would average out at 158k a week averahe per player.
like i said 111million for our squad from figures that look likely and if theyre not theyre probably higher than lower anyway.
And i quickly worked out Utds too and that was 157m a year and they pay players 500k 300k a week... so they also are paying 100+ million a year on staff outside the first team players. Which managers are on 10mill a year or so coaches/youth club staff ceo's etc.
Which is what i was asking must be the total wage/salary of the club, everyone they employ combined yet these articles are always talking about just player wages. Only just over half of these sums seem to be on the first team squad.

I'd expect the bloke to have taken the figures from each respective clubs' financial reports. Would need to see the published accounts to know if there's a breakdown between playing staff (incl. coaches) and other personnel, but still expect playing staff to take the lion's share. I'd also imagine figures are gross, as it's down to each player to pay their income tax, which would noticeably increase the net figures which I understand are what the media generally report.
