I think the Top 10 players are pretty much predictable apart from Robbie Fowler. He seems to have done ok for himself to say his career as under achieved.

Birmingham have a couple of real money men behind them. Abromovich is about 15 years younger than he closest rival and has about 5 times more money.

From the Telegraph:
1. Roman Abramovich, 38, Chelsea -- £7.5billion (last year £5.5bn).
2. Joseph Lewis, 67, Tottenham, Rangers - £1.8bn (£2.2bn).
3. Dermot Desmond, 54, Celtic, Man Utd - £850m ( £660m).
4. Trevor Hemmings, 69, Charlton, Preston - £700m (£700m).
5. The Walker Family (Jack Walker deceased 2000) - £650m (£650m).
6. Malcolm Glazer, 76, Man Utd -£560m (£650m).
7. David Sullivan, 55, Birmingham - £550m (£550m).
8. John Magnier, 56, Man Utd -£520m (£500m).
9. David Gold, 68, Birmingham -£495m (£465m).
10= Mohammed Fayed, 71, Fulham - £470m (£560m); Harry Dobson, 57, Man Utd - £470m (£460m).


Top 10 Players:

1. David Beckham Real Madrid £65 million
2. Dennis Bergkamp Arsenal £37 million
3. Michael Owen Real Madrid £30 million
4. Robbie Fowler Manchester City £28 million
5. Alan Shearer Newcastle £22 million
6. Sol Campbell Arsenal £20 million
6. Rio Ferdinand Manchester United £20 million
6. Ryan Giggs Manchester United £20 million
6. Roy Keane Manchester United £20 million
10. Thierry Henry Arsenal £18 million

I would have thought there'd be other players on there, say from the Italian league and not all players that have played in the Premiership at some point.

Thierry Henry deserves a bit more than Roy Keane but they're all a bit too overpaid don't you think :P hehe gits.

I believe this is from english based players!!

Henry will eventually earn more than keane, as he has about 7 years on him!!
