Care to explain your reasoning behind this?
Schmeichel - ~ £850,000
Cantona - £1.2m
Irwin - £625,000
Bruce - £800,000
Pallister - £2.3m
Keane - £3.75m
Cole - £7.0m
G Neville - Free
P Neville - Free
Scholes - Free
Beckham - Free
Sharpe - Free
Giggs - Free
Butt - Free
Brown - Free
Considering the above players formed the backbone of the team for most of the 90s, that's hardly excessive is it? Cole and Keane were British records but when you've hardly spent anything anything on the rest of the team, is that not allowed?
