lol, our wage bill is not higher than Chelsea's
Telegraph have cited our wage bill from last season and simply added what Alexis, Welbeck, Ospina, Chambers, etc. are on. Hence, they have conveniently forgot to subtract the likes of Sagna, Bendtner, Park, Fabianski, Vermaelen, etc... whilst removing the likes of Lampard, Cole, Luiz, etc. from Chelsea's.
Not to mention that our wage bill includes all our staff members, and Chelsea don't include any of their loanees
you are in dreamland if you think our wage bill is really higher than Chelsea's
