UCL - Tottenham v Werder Bremen - Match thread

[mattyspurs]

I really don't care about him being cuptied, we need him to fire us into the top 4 and the CL again next season, we've already exceeded our CL expectations this season

if we wait to the summer we better make top 4 again or it would be a big opportunity missed

I agree with that mate

Whatever happens now and however far we go in the CL is a bonus, and the players who have got us there are good enough to take us further if they can

Whereas a shiny new striker is needed to consolidate our CL status for next season. I really don't want this to end now I am amongst it. I feel like we belong here

 

[Viva la Tottenham]

we definately belong here, we're such an entertaining club to watch and our results have been fantastic. man shity would just go all italian and bore the bollox off ya

we have to do everything in our power to remain a top 4 club, slumping back down into the wafer cup would be heartbreaking stuff for sure and losing any top players because of that short coming would be unbearable

just the thought of it makes me hate man shity even more the big time charlie ****s

Actually the amount earned is much greater than :

[x] € 2.100.000 for reaching Play-Offs
[x] € 7.100.000 for reaching Group Stages

[x] € 0.400.000 for draw vs Bremen
[x] € 0.800.000 for win vs Twente
[x] € 0.000.000 for loss vs Inter
[x] € 0.800.000 for win vs Inter
[x] € 0.800.000 for win vs Bremen

[x] € 3.000.000 for reaching R. of last 16
[_] € 3.300.000 for reaching QF
[_] € 4.000.000 for reaching SF
[_] € 5.200.000 for losing Final
[_] € 9.000.000 for winning Final

[_] € x.xxx.xxx TV Revenue Pool

€ 15.000.000 Prize Money so far

In addition Spurs will have earned a proportion of the 'Market Pool' which is awarded on the basis of 'the commercial value of their domestic television market, the number of UEFA Champions League matches they play this season and their final position in the domestic league table last term' Last year Liverpool, who did not get out of their Group, earned € 19,777,000, so I would guess that Spurs are likely to get more than that by getting into the Group Stages ie Spurs will have earned more than ie. € 35 million in total.


In addition Spurs will have kept their home gate receipts.


There will be additional costs as well (players bonuses etc) but the net profit of the Champions League campaign so far is a lot of additional cash - but a good deal of it paid at the end of the season even if earned already.

The dilenmma of buying a top striker in January is likely to be that all the best strikers will be 'cup tied' from the Champions League for the knock out stages this season.....and those in the Group Stages may not want to move....so maybe we will find ourselves waiting until summer as Levy/Redknapp probably will not buy unless the striker is a step above those we have.

Gotta agree with the others posters, we already achieved what we wanted in the CL, everything else is a bonus. But the striker would directly help us from January till the end of the season to finish Top 4 again and qualify again for the CL. We belong here.

And as the Market Pool is always decided at the end of the season i put a x.xxx.xxx on it "TV Revenue Pool" on it, so i didnt forget it, just didnt want to put inaccurate figures in it.

For the first time at spurs I watched the game from a box, had a quality night and I'm over the moon we've qualified. Despite the warmth and 3 course meal I felt myself yearning to be in the south lower with all the atmosphere and definitely prefer being in the stands.

Anyway as I was leaving I literally bumped into bale as he was making his way to the box area. I couldn't believe it and was like a little kid star struck meeting his idol. I asked for a photo and he obliged (my mate fucked it up and it's shit quality whereas I nailed his photo!) I then shook his hand said he was a legend and apologised for being a pest knowing he'd probably just want to get to his family and relax. Seems like a down to earth and nice fella.

Hope you enjoyed my story and thanks for listening :up:
