We did this in June, and plenty has changed since. Before we begin, here’s a quick quiz question: Which seven players have moved to Premier League clubs for a fee of at least £20million more than once? The answer will be down below…

And if you’re feeling really sexy/low on things to do, try and name all 111 times a Premier League club has spent at least £20m on a player. It’s a fun quiz to try with your friends. If you have any. I don’t have any…

Southampton, Newcastle, West Brom, Huddersfield, Brighton, Watford, Stoke City, Burnley and Swansea City – 0

Step it up, fellas.

Bournemouth – 1

Nathan Ake – £20m (June 2017)

Bournemouth are the latest side to join the £20m+ club. Congratulations to them.

Crystal Palace – 2

Christian Benteke – £27m (August 2016)

Mamadou Sakho – £26m (August 2017)

One of three Premier League clubs to join the £20m+ club last summer, Crystal Palace more than doubled their club-record fee when signing Benteke from Liverpool. They then gave the same club almost as much for Sakho.

Leicester – 2

Islam Slimani – £29m (August 2016)

Kelechi Iheanacho – £25m (August 2017)

A signing that screams ‘well, we can, so we might as well’ is when newly-crowned Premier League champions Leicester spent almost £30m on a 28-year-old Slimani last year. Hopefully Iheanacho will work out a little better.

West Ham – 2

Andre Ayew – £20m (August 2016)

Marko Arnautovic – £20m (August 2017)

Davids Gold and Sullivan courted a number of strikers across Europe last year, but eventually landed on a goal-laden combination of Simone Zaza and Swansea forward Andre Ayew. They then then paid £20m for Arnautovic (elbows included)…

Arsenal – 5

Mesut Ozil – £42.4m (September 2013)

Alexis Sanchez – £35m (July 2014)

Granit Xhaka – £33.8m (May 2016)

Shkodran Mustafi – £35m (August 2016)

Alexandre Lacazette – £47m (July 2017)

Arsenal have only spent £20m or more on five players in their history. Still, go and get ‘Cohesion 10’ on the back of a shirt and shut up…

Tottenham – 6

Roberto Soldado – £26m (August 2013)

Erik Lamela – £25.8m (August 2013)

Heung-min Son – £22m (August 2015)

Moussa Sissoko – £30m (September 2016)

Serge Aurier – £22m (August 2017)

Davinson Sanchez – £37m (August 2017)

Each of these deals were completed around a week or less before the end of the transfer window. Good old Daniel Levy. Still, they did increase this list by 50% over the course of the summer…

Everton – 7

Romelu Lukaku – £28m (July 2014)

Yannick Bolasie – £25m (August 2016)

Morgan Schneiderlin – £24m (January 2017)

Jordan Pickford – £25m (June 2017)

Davy Klaassen – £23.6m (June 2017)

Michael Keane – £25m (July 2017)

Gylfi Sigurdsson – £45m (August 2017)

Above both Arsenal and Tottenham are Everton, with Ronald Koeman accounting for six of their seven £20m+ signings. That’s ambition (and a billionaire investor combined with ridiculous TV deals and selling players for loads of money) for you…

Liverpool – 14

Fernando Torres – £20m (July 2007)

Alberto Aquilani – £20m (August 2009)

Luis Suarez – £22.3m (January 2011)

Andy Carroll – £35m (January 2011)

Christian Benteke – £32.5m (July 2015)

Sadio Mane – £34m (June 2016)

Georginio Wijnaldum – £25m (July 2016)

Mohamed Salah – £34.3m (June 2017)

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain – £35m (August 2017)

In a pretty unspectacular list of huge hits and massive misses, one thing stands out: Liverpool went three years (and six transfer windows) without spending more than £20m on any one player from July 2011 to July 2014. Fingers were burned by Stewart Downing, and that is understandable…

Manchester United – 19

Juan Sebastian Veron – £28.1m (July 2001)

Rio Ferdinand – £30m (July 2002)

Wayne Rooney – £27m (September 2004)

Paul Pogba – £89.3m (August 2016)

Victor Lindelof – £30.75m (June 2017)

Romelu Lukaku – £76m (July 2017)

Nemanja Matic – £40m (August 2017)

Sir Alex Ferguson spent £20m or more on just five players during his 27 years in charge of Manchester United – as many times as David Moyes and Louis van Gaal in the 15 months after his retirement. Jose Mourinho has already done it six times…

Chelsea – 25

Alvaro Morata – £57m (August 2017)

David Zappacosta – £25m (August 2017)

Danny Drinkwater – £34m (August 2017)

After all the (valid) talk of Antonio Conte not being backed in the transfer market, he did buy five players for more than £20m this summer. It’s hardly a crisis…

Manchester City – 28

Robinho – £32.5m (September 2008)

Carlos Tevez – £25.5m (July 2009)
