Yeah, thought France and Portugal were the other way round. Just clicked on the link and it says it also includes teams from non top 5 leagues so the way it was copied here is misleading.

I read an article not long ago in which they reported that we earned more than 200m from transfers in the past few years, so I guess they're counting them as well. Otherwise I can't think of other expensive transfers: 60m for Kakà in 2009, 15-20m for Pato last year and that's it. If you add those 60m from Ibra and Thiago (135-140m from those 4 players alone) then it's much more believable.

Never did I think Madrid would be La Liga's Arsenal. Fortunately I don't support Serie A Arsenal, whichever team that might be in recent years (Napoli probably except they have their meltdown much earlier in the season)
It's terrible. Like, Arsenal, you kinda expected it to happen at some point even when they were 5 points clear or whatever and winning 2-0 every week.
But Madrid, under Ancelotti, with Barca&Atletico stumbling, conceding no goals, scoring at will, having already done the hard work in overhauling the lead Barca had from October. It was in your hands.
I'd say I'm sorry, but it would be disingenuous
Where does it say that? I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case, but I didn't see it listed anywhere in the PDF. There's a separate chart at the top which includes all of the amounts paid by teams in the top 5 during that period but I don't see anything that is related to the lower chart of transfer fees received being from all clubs.
My brain still hasn't accepted it, it refuses to accept it. Giving up the title in four days....it's really hard to take. I haven't hated the sport this much in a long while and every game I watch now is just self-torture. Clasico was the point of no return, even with the defeat there we still could win the league if Atletico dropped some points but Sevilla killed whatever little hope we had left. I still can't believe it. Respect to Sevilla though, they won fair and square, didn't cheat to win.It's terrible. Like, Arsenal, you kinda expected it to happen at some point even when they were 5 points clear or whatever and winning 2-0 every week.

Thiago could have enjoyed spending time on the bench with Adnan and doing fruit quizzes for United.
What a waste.

Van Boekel corrected his fuck up with another fuck up. Dutch refs.
Hysterical
The teams which are highlighted in green are "Non big-5 league clubs".
Says so right below the table even if it is wrong since Portugal is actually in the top 5 instead of France.
Paul Scholes gets a bit of help from the crowd.

That doesn't mean it's including figures sold to clubs outside the top 5. They're just highlighting those who aren't in it in their chart. Good point about Porto and Benfica being highlighted though -- they must obviously be including France in the top 5 which would explain the figures for AC Milan.

Do it Moyes
Yup, all we've done for the last few weeks is draw 0-0 or lose. Barker had us playing terrible football, not sad that he's gone.

I remember Rakitics goal from their first match against Real...man that was a beauty too.
He's not having it tonight.
Was it that long shot when he scored in Bernabeu this season? Think it was him, it was amazing.

Both him and Serero have been ass for months, but Duarte can't get a damn chance to play.
Fuck off Van Rhijn

Arsenal set to make a £2m bid for Rubin Kazan's Sardar Azmoun, the Iranian Lionel Messi apparently.

How could that go wrong? We all saw how great the German Messi was at Chelsea.
