    1. Don’t care what anyone says or if City are officially stripped of titles, you can never take them away. If City’s titles don’t count then neither do Chelsea’s, they were allowed to spend whatever they wanted and so has every club in football history, until the premier league and established big clubs lobbied to change the rules to stop any other club from competing. People can treat it as if it’s on par with performance enhancing drugs all they like, it doesn’t change the reality.

    2. I would swap Bale with Ronaldo. Yes, Bale was a fantastic player, but he is the only player on the list who didn't win a major trophy with his club. Ronaldo's arrival transformed Manchester United. His impact was so significant that it extended into Ferguson's final years, when there was already speculation about his retirement. Ronaldo became the best player in the world during his time at United, reached two Champions League finals, won multiple trophies, and helped establish United as one of the dominant teams in Europe. His departure marked the beginning of United's decline, and we can't say the same about Bale's impact on his club.😊

    3. I'm constantly confused when i see Mahrez and Vardy both consistently get mentioned in lists like this when both of them were signed when Leicester were in the Championship, so many people get that wrong and its just a quick google to check.

    4. Cantona was a third of the highest British transfer ever. That’d be 40m in today’s money. Vardy was 1 eighty-th of the British record. Not close

    5. Chelsea Best Bargain Signings in the Premier League :-

      Gianfranco Zola £4.5 million from Parma

      Ashley Cole £5 million plus William Gallas from Arsenal

      César Azpilicueta £6.5 million from Marseille

      Petr Cech £7 million from Rennes

      Frank Lampard £11 million from West Ham

    6. I will admit my Arsenal bias, but it frustrates me the revisionism and the lack of respect the value of Arsenal signings get. Seaman, Dixon, Bould, Winterburn cost a combined 2m, and won 3x league titles together, plus Dixon and Seaman a 4th one together. Kolo Toure was 250k and Sol Campbell was free. Invincibles. Gilberto Silva (the best ever DM in EPL after Rodri) was 4.5m (in a world cup winning summer). Freddie Ljungberg was just 3m. Pires cost just 6m, was voted pfa and football writers player of the year in his second season (double winning season) despite being injured since february, including a moment when on crutches he came out to lift the trophy to the rest of the squad bowing down to him. then won fa cup, then invincible, then fa cup, and finally a champions league final run. Better than Bale, for sure. Cantona at 1.2m was a good signing but context is king – in 1992, the average transfer fee was 594,000, so Cantona was actually comparatively costly. You could include Henry, who cost 10m in 1999, having sold anelka the day before for 20m. Bergkamp was just 7.5m. Fabregas signed by arsenal for free (2.25m by tribunal). Van Persie 2.75m. By modern standards, 19m for Saliba is a bargain too.

    7. You made a mistake Dougie, Riyad Mahrez was sign when Leicester City were in the championship, therefor he is a championship signing, not a premier league signing, do better
