It seems like the Villa transfers is some sort of PSR loophole. Can someone explain it like I'm 6?
Basically, you get the entire value of an outgoing transfer on your PSR figures immediately minus book value (so, let's say £9m for Dobbin, book value £0). Whereas the incoming players fee is spread over the length of their contract (for example, Ironman signs for £9m but signs a 3 year contract which equates to £3m a year, leaving us £6m up on PSR).

It's dumb, but there it is. Both Everton and Villa buy a £9m player but we both end up £6m up on our PSR stats!

That makes sense. Well, no it doesn't make sense, its totally dumb, but at least I understand it now. Thanks!
