Champions league revenue

[seppo]

When we win the CL I think it's only right we thank Poch by letting him buy 1 100M world class player for the CL money alone - I'm thinking Hazard, once he turns down Real this summer for the new champions of Europe - and then, of course, we use the additional 150M war chest to buy understudies to Sissoko and Winks. It's written in the stars.

Wow, I did not know the money was not equally distributed. Utterly bonkers system, but completely something a corrupt organisation such as UEFA would come up with.

It's not equally distributed in PL either. Lower clubs and leagues get next to nothing. So corrupt PL/FA too.

Protecting the establishment.

It highlights how difficult it is to rise to the top without having a mega backer.

To have to be competitive in the top competition for 10 years to be on a level playing field is ludicrous really. How often does a team compete for that long? Not many!

We’ve seen it in the PL the challengers come then fade away.

Arsenal gonna be down over £100m on all other CL qualifiers this season. If they don’t make it this season it really will start to bite. Considering our 17/18 revenue was £380m. 18/19 figures with extra CL money and stadium revenue could be enormous and go past £450m leaving Arsenal way behind us.

I doubt it will this season, it's cost us more to rent Wembley, and the crowds where way down on last season, a lot of ST money refunded, and we have only had 4 games at the new stadium.

next season if we guarantee CL footy, and get as far as the QF you might get pretty close

True.

I think the only way a club can do it, is to be patient over 15 years and not be afraid to sell their best players and replace them with younger up and coming talent.

Costing arsenal money on their kit deal every time they miss out on top 4. Every chance of arsenal Chelsea europa final. Prefer Chelsea to do it .

Revenue is one thing, but expenses increases too when advancing this far in CL,
so net profit is not as extreme.
