Lose as in lose out on? I'd say with CL we could earn about an extra £80m-ish a season, plus added sponsorship opportunities being in it. With EL we could earn about an extra £12m-£15m a season.
I weren't even against the appointment and a few times he's done some good stuff but if you look back over the last 15 months with him, a lot of the stuff he's done has just baffled me as to how he's had the career he's had.
I know he's had success since but he's never been the same since Madrid for me. He has one bad result and reverts to overly defensive tactics.
Think he'll be there til the end of the season. Got the cup final at the end of April and they'll be hoping he can win the Europa.
We need that though to help pay off the stadium. Without CL for a second successive season we'll likely have to go down the Arsenal route of selling best players to help finance it, not sure EL would help us avoid that route. And to be honest, as a ST holder I'm delighted I'm not spending any money at the moment, I reckon quite a few will be considering their STs for next season whilst members who get regular tickets will also lose interest unless something changes, considering we charge the highest prices in Europe, no one's getting anything near value for money.
I wanted to overlook the usual "negative style" that's been associated under him or that he's a dinosaur nowadays and for a period the counter system was working well but then he switched it to just going completely defensive and he's ran so many key players into the ground that they're not performing like key players any more, his team selections are dreadful as well.
