Ofcourse the top clubs like Real Madrid, Barcalona and Milan are going to be similar to top premier league clubs, but it's more the mid table clubs that make the big difference, like the wage bills of Spurs, Man city, Aston Villa etc are much higher then clubs in similar positions in other leagues. I read somehwere that last season the overall Premier league wage bill was over £1billion where La Ligas, who were second to the Premier league, was not even £600million.
