KingArthur Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 51 minutes ago, Froggy said: That's just for winning the final. We made over £20m in the group stage from prize money alone. These tournaments are worth a fortune to teams. For a smaller teams even Conference League is. UEL really is not for a team like ManU. With your squad cost, CL is essential. Only point being in the EL is to win it and get back to CL. The hit your league form takes with it and each league position is woth couple of millions.

I know what you're saying, but it's far more lucrative for us to be in the Europa League rather than no European football whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Gate receipts will worth a fair bit on top of prize money. Froggy and the boys can’t help but buy their Big Jim Popcorn when they’re over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRL Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 18 minutes ago, Ash said: It’s nowhere near that. Sadly it is. £9m for their coefficient payment and £3.5m participation prize, as well as other prizes per win and draw. All in (according to ChatGPT at least) they’re about £45m to the good from the run to date. Which is pretty nuts. Stand to lose about £15m on PL placing and the £50m or so from the CL last season, but if they went on to win the Europa League they’d likely have better revenue than last season.

WilliamPS Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Either spurs or Man Utd will win the EL and Chelsea will walk the EC. Time to make your peace with that. A spurs / Man Utd final would be pretty funny, the loser will be wrecked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A spurs / Man Utd final would be pretty funny, the loser will be wrecked. Spurs face an away tie in Frankfurt and needing a win, somehow to go through. Man Utd have a better chance at home against Lyon, but I still think Bilbao will prove a tough test. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sturla Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Isn't it likely that 67-68 point would be enough for a 5th place CL spot? That would be 5 wins from the 8 left. It is doable but not easy. ManU (h) W Palace (h) W Villa (a) L Ipswich(h) W Brighton (a) L Chelsea (h) W Arsenal (a) L Everton (h) W This would give us 68. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
janpawel Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I think at worst we will draw with Villa. We always match up well against them Less confident against Brighton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We earned €22.7m in the group stage from prize money alone. Sorry I should edit: prize money and participation money alone.

STM Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) Theres my prediction and that's us getting beat at Villa, Arsenal and Brighton, as well as drawing at home to Palace. Edited April 11 by STM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibierski Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 6 wins and a draw in Man City remaining games is still believing they’re some top side this season. Nothing has indicated all season they will click into form. 66 though is fair reflection for us, and based on everyone’s season, should be enough for 5th.

Ketsbaia Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Wins - Man Utd, Ipswich, Everton Draws - Palace, Chelsea, Brighton Defeats - Villa, Arsenal That's 65 points, which seems about 50/50 for fifth place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonAbroad Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Chelsea home game is such a massive one. Game will be moved to Sunday now as they'll play on the Thursday, which certainly hurts them more than us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, they’ll probably be out of sight after the first leg as well! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
