Also, the gap between Arsenal and the other 4 as far as gross spend is monumental. Spuds can claim to be the most frugal by far. But Arsenal were the club known for not joining in on the arms race that teams like yours created. Now we have transfer fees for players that could revive faltering economies and agents fees that could support entire lower league clubs for decades.
Chelsea are known for 3 things;
- sacking managers
- spending enormous amounts of money on players.
- plastic fans.
