Anyone fancy adjusting for arrivals/departures/new contracts since then? From reports online I think Ings, Digne, Bailey, Buendia, Coutinho, Carlos and Kamara are all on about 6-7 million a year. Olsen and Young probably on 2 million and Augustinsson 3 million Emi got a new deal as well so probably also in the highest paid bracket. Ramsey and Cash probably gone up to 4 million a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still some way up to Arsenal and Spurs, but according to them Villa are above Everton and Leicester from this season. https://www.spotrac.com/Premier League/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Sporttrac is known to be way off. I think the best way to judge it for us is to use the last accounts data and then adjust for incomings/outgoings. You would think we would be at nearly £170m to £180m. We’ve lost Jack, Trez, Samatta, Targett so a combined £10m a year combined probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve added four high earners who are on 6-7m each per year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve lost Jack, Trez, Samatta, Targett so a combined £10m a year combined probably. I had rough look at this a while back and estimated employee costs about £150m for 2022 and £170m 2023. Amortisation up round the £75-80m mark for 2022 and a similar level for 2023. Turnover hard to judge given everything going on in the last few years of accounts but I'd estimated £162m turnover for 2022. Assuming this is accurate and at worst case maintained and everything else fairly equal for following years, we should as it stands have about £30-40m to play with in the 2023 FFP check (assuming the methodology same as 2021?) but 2024 will be an issue without significant further sales, increases in revenue, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Gerrard is now on 7m+ where Deano was on less than 2m and no doubt Purslow has had a pay rise. Scary numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think NSWE and Purslow know the quickest way to increase revenue is to qualify for Europe. Which is our target. But if we don’t qualify for Europe, things get tighter with revenue and FFP, especially if we then need more players to make another push next season.

OutByEaster? Posted August 17, 2022 Moderator Share Posted August 17, 2022 Given that Everton just missed out on hitting their FFP target by £200m and don't seem to have been given any real punishments whatsoever, I can't help but feel that it's unlikely that it's fear of breaching the FFP rules that's currently dominating the thinking of most Premier league teams. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness though, the FFP assessment doesn't have them breaching FFP as they were able to exploit the measures introduced due to Covid to help ease FFP requirements for clubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My £162m is broken out as: Gates £16.5m Broadcast £117.5m Sponsorship £15m Commercial £13m Tbh I did this when the last accounts came out around Nov last year I think, so can’t fully remember how got to these figures. The broadcast looks like the avg of 20 and 21 figures. The others are either same or a small increase on the last season they appear to be unaffected by one off issues eg covid.

Unless we are serious about getting to Europe one day, where clubs get regularly punished for breaking ffp (unless you're psg or city obviously). To make matters worse, uefa ffp is now changing and will take form of 70% wages/revenue cap. This will totally screw us over as we are easily exceeding 70% already. I'm fact, with numbers quoted in last few posts here, we might be getting close to 100% soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
