Another season of the English Premier League has come to an end. Manchester United solidified its 6th position and Arsenal made history for all the wrong reasons; they failed to qualify to the UEFA Champions League for the first time in twenty one years.
However, did their poor performance affect their bank account?

Chelsea received a total amount of £152.8m for winning the league while Sunderland received a consolation amount of £99.9m for working hard to close the season at the bottom of the league table.
