London, Oct. 6 : If you own Liverpool, right now a Premier League point will have cost you 156 times more than a point gained just across Stanley Park.
A unique chart has attempted to show just what return club owners get for their multi-million pound investment and, as Liverpool are the latest club to change hands, points were always going to be expensive.
Since John W Henry''s Fenway Sports splashed out 300 million pounds to take control of the club last October, plus the 144 million pounds spent on transfers and wages, Liverpool''s cost for every one of the 59 points gained works out at 7,525,423.73 pounds each, The Sun reports.
In contrast, at Everton, where Bill Kenwright paid 20 million pounds in 2004 to become the majority shareholder, have got points on the ''cheap''.
The 415 points earned while Kenwright has been at the helm come in at 48,192.77 pounds each.
Arsenal has spent more per point than Manchester United — but cannot hold a candle to what has been won at Old Trafford.
American billionaire Stan Kroenke is regarded as the biggest shareholder at the Emirates where spending is in the region of 730 million pounds since he took over in 2007.
That includes Kroenke''s equity stake plus money laid out on transfers and wages.
The richest man in football is Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour with a fortune of 20 billion pounds, while David Beckham is rated the richest player with 135 million pounds and Fabio Capello the richest boss with 38 million pounds. (ANI)
