- The page says early-season wage figures come from contemporary press reports and should be treated as estimates.
Field notes
The page names Transfermarkt and Wikipedia for match and fee data, fbref/Capology for wages from 2013–14 onward, and press reports for earlier wage estimates. Its controls offer slow, normal, fast, and instant simulation speeds, plus season navigation and share options. The project describes itself as unofficial and says Manchester City have denied wrongdoing and are expected to appeal.
