Surely in a game like this the instructions should be to hoof the fucking ball out instead of constantly losing cheap possession on the edge of our box

Not the most important thing to take away from last night - but I'm curious, how much more money are we going to get from the CL pot after reaching the semis?
As the accountant fella on a recent Fighting Cock podcast pointed out, that kind of statement win also puts us in the eye of the international market more, boosting the club's brand.
Fuck me, you might even find it's easier to sign up a player because they see us as a more desirable destination if they think we're going places.
An enormous night.

You've obviously never seen Shilow Tracey play for Spurs u23's or you'd know Spurs have already recruited Sissoko jnr !
How’s he doing?
Didn’t we sign him from Ebbsfleet?
Well, here's the numbers if anyone is interested...Not the most important thing to take away from last night - but I'm curious, how much more money are we going to get from the CL pot after reaching the semis?

Edit: that doesn't even include TV money, so my guess is that it's even more lucrative.

This is exactly why we do and should prioritize the league and CL over FA cup and Mickey Mouse cup.Not the most important thing to take away from last night - but I'm curious, how much more money are we going to get from the CL pot after reaching the semis?

All true.
And think of Sissoko in his first two seasons at Spurs for how Tracey is doing.
Tracey is a good utility player at filling loads of positions from full back to striker' - but he is 3rd or 4th best in all positions but has great strength and powerful running but very limited technically
Well, here's the numbers if anyone is interested...

2018/19 UEFA club competitions revenue distribution system | Inside UEFA
UEFA announced the detailed financial distribution system for its club competitions for the 2018/19 season in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League.
www.uefa.com
the 15m figure you quote is the " fixed amount' which aggregated for all such payments makes up 30% or 600m of the 2 billion prize money that is distributed from the CL pot so total earnings are certainly a lot more when the other 70% is distributed !
And on top of that is not only match day income but many sponsorship deals give extra payments the further we get in CL and PL .......
And then longer term benefits of maybe a more attractive stadium naming rights deal , players choosing a CL semi finalist to join rather than an " out if CL club like ManU Chelsea or Woolwich....etc.
This is a big one. Yes, we've missed out on some naming rights revenue - but it's clearly down to Levy playing hardball for a lot of money.
This CL run will have helped massively with a view to securing top whack for naming rights.

Sounds like a lot of free money to put towards a new CM and RB....?
Yep.
I still think we’ll end up with a US centric sponsor to tie in with all the NHL nonsense.
2 of our 4 recognised full backs must be replaced I feel.
Try and get Sessegnon for Lamela and probably 3 other additions.
Won't be easy or seamless but we need that I feel.

I’m just not sold on Sessegnon. I know he’s young but £40 million is a huge amount of money. He’s not going to be an immediate starter.
And he won't cost 40 million, at least not until he is part of anything that resembles success.
I think he will be a fantastic player but is not a defender.
We keep hearing on Eriksen that class is permanent and form temporary.
So yep, still a leap for Sessegnon but he has been in a poor team and saddled with high expectation.

Liverpool made £72 million last season as losing CL finalists

On this Forum too much as it is!!
Do you rate Shiloh?
Mauricio Pochettino will spend up to £150m revamping his Tottenham squad this summer and could look to sell 28-year-old England defenders Danny Rose and Kieran Trippier. (Mail)
