That EPL Talk post was well debunked in the comments, the numbers are just wrong. No fault of theirs, they used a bad resource is all.

Even if Rafa spent more money, the fact that only two of the players on the books now were there when he came in is a rather stunning fact when you look at what he has spent.


Also, Alonso took out Cesc's knee in practice today.

That was the reference for Xabi.

I hadn't looked at the EPL Talk post since this afternoon, but I thought it was slanted from the get-go.

Figured as much.

And looking at the Bulgarian roster, there are no less than five Dimitars. What a shit name.
