    But we won't be spending what United and Liverpool spend as we won't have that revenue coming in, neither do Chelsea or City but those two are bank rolled by Ogliarchs. So we will need to be smarter with our money. Tottenham will have to wait a few years before they can start spending the same amount of money as we will be able to. Unless they sell first. Will Pochettino stay for that long without winning anything?

    Unfortunately ticket sales represent a very small part of a clubs revenue. TV deals and Sponsors are the way clubs make money. United are the most marketable team in the EPL, hence the highest revenue.

    1. United.
    2. City
    3. Arsenal
    4. Chelsea
    5. Liverpool
    6. Tottenham.

    And pretty sure Tottenham have half the yearly revenue of United.

    Plague, that's why he would be enticed to go there. Mo money = Less problems when it comes to football.

    All of this is accurate. Even as a Spurs fan I've been impressed with the way Arsenal kept pace with the big boys whilst paying off the new stadium.
    Spurs are in that boat now, will be for many years and you could argue already have been for a few years in preparation for the stadium debt.
    As a Spurs fan I am worried about Poch heading off to either Man Utd or Real Madrid. He has done amazing things in getting Spurs to where they are (people can define success however they want), and with **** all money spent. If Spurs had the spending reach of Man Utd, City, Liverpool i think we would have kicked on and won the premiership (or at least given it a proper crack) last season or this season. We just haven't been able to invest like Liverpool have (for example) to take that next step.
    At Man Utd it wouldnt take much to turn it around, and he could go after those top quality players he just cant afford at Spurs. As Frodo says, doubt he will be willing to wait another 10 years to get the $$ to spend he could at other clubs.
    Who knows what personally motivates the bloke, but I think he will go. We were a step up from Southampton, and Man Utd (in an overall 'big club sense') are a step up from us.

    Just watching the Man U game and watching Pogba

    **** ought to be fined for his efforts for the last 4 months for the club


    Regardless of whatever gripe he had with Mourinho the way he is playing now the certainty of him having downed tools is nigh on impossible to deny

    Yeah and Jose wanting him to play a holding role and Ole wanting him to be box to box has nothing to do with it.

    Any comments from United boys? Di Maria definitely had the last laugh.

    Sanchez is fat now.
    Jones still starting.
    Anyone think for one second Sir Alex would have let Chong turn up at training with that hairdo?


    Geez this club has gone to poop.

    Damn.

    Surely a new manager figures out how to get better results out of Ronaldo, Pogba, Sancho, Rashford, Fernandes, Varane.
    Unfortunate.
    Was enjoying watching that cluster**** unfold.

    Somehow 2 wins outside of Top 4 though.

    Looks like it might be Poch which is good for the other top 4 teams. Means we don't need to worry about United for a little longer
