Why Is Tottenham Not In Champions League
Spurs announce plans for Champions League final vs Liverpool screening at new Tottenham stadium.
Why is tottenham not in champions league. Tottenham failing to make the Champions League could see swift end of Jose Mourinho Jose Mourinho will be eyeing transfer funds in the summer but no Champions League coupled with stadium repayments. Kieran Trippier reveals why he quit Tottenham and claims club would have won Champions League if they kept Mousa Dembele. Liverpool are well aware of the ticketing allocation laid down by Uefa having been to the Champions League final last year losing to Real Madrid.
While every team desperately wants a win Spurs have a lot more riding on the line. Spurs have won their last three to rekindle hopes of a top four finish. Tottenham failed to win their first three Champions League group games on their way to the final last season Striker Harry Kane said Tottenham had not learned from their mistakes.
The reality is Spurs are not afraid of anyone and if they take care of business against Royal Antwerp they will top the group and avoid the top 19 teams left in the competition including all 8 from the Champions League. Tottenham and Everton also have an outside chance of a fourth-place raid but none of that may matter if both London clubs secure both European trophies. But fewer than 17000 Tottenham supporters will be there to witness the Champions League final in Madrid.
If one incident summed up the lack of savvy that Tottenham have shown in this seasons Champions League it came in the 53rd minute of the Monaco game on Tuesday night. What has to be especially frustrating to Tottenhams management team and their supporters is how much bad luck has played in the team not being in the Champions League. For example it doesnt appear a farfetched scenario that if either Liverpool Leicester or West Ham finish fourth they might not get to play Champions League football next season.
City take on Spurs in the final match of the season at the King Power Stadium a game which could turn out to be a shootout for Champions League football next season although City will be. Jose Mourinho believes the Europa League is not Tottenhams level but is motivating his players by telling them they will win it next season if they qualify. The bottom line is Tottenham will have one eye on the matches tomorrow to see what happens.
If a restart is not possible however Tottenham - who sat in eighth place when the season was suspended - face the prospect of missing out on Champions League. As they are still competing in the League Cup and the Europa. Jose Mourinho believes the Europa.
