Teams value for money

While Ken Bates is indeed a stingy old cunt who is ruining Leeds at the moment, the following indicates that in fact his business model may not be so bad. It is the 'pounds per point' of the current team, i.e you add up the costs of all players in the starting team and divide by the number of points achieved thus far.



Interesting, would be good to see a comparison for other leagues.

That is an interesting statistic...

Wonder if this graph could be done for the premier league.

FSG bought Liverpool under the estimated price, by some bit.

So we should look good.

The 'Purchase Price' column is the cost of the players, not what the club was bought for.

Sounds easy enough if what all they did was divide the sum of the squad by the number of points.


They could of done this on Microsoft excel.

Liverpool £11315789=1 point.

Wait I think I did this wrong.

As a business you need to consider wages aswell or it means fuck all tbh.

I'd like to see the a table with first the 11 that have played most for each team. I reckon Leeds gets brought down alot by the likes of Billy Paynter. Hull's brought up by players valued too high and they are trying to get rid of like McShane and Olofinjana.

Paynter brings ours up actually cause we paid for him.

I'm not sure whether this does include the entire squad or just the most common first team. Will look on the site where it came from.

I thought you got fat Billy on a free transfer?

Oh shit we might have yeah, sure i remember it being undisclosed. May well have been a freebie though!

Our starting XI amounts to about £8m, so I don't know where that figure came from.

Subs?

Must be a guess then, as De Ridder was undisclosed.

Everyone else was free on our subs bench.

TBH Birmingham have some games in hand so it could look better for them......

Knew Watford would be near the top, even with our low amount of points.

Joe Murphy - Free
Cyrus Christie - Academy
Richard Keogh - £300k
Martin Cranie - £700k
Chris Hussey - £50k
Sammy Clingan - £750k
David Bell - £300k
Gael Bigirimana - Academy
Conor Thomas - Academy
Gary McSheffrey - Free
Lukas Jutkiewicz - £1m

=£3.1m

How was another £2.5m added Wouldn't make too much difference anyway.

Does it just include the first XI or the whole squad?
