I'm not talking about just prize money. Gate receipts, additional advertising revenue, etc. Well over twenty million pounds for an extended run. They have nobody else to repace Michu. Hernandez plays more as a winger than in the middle and he's their only other true attacking player who is Premiership class, other than Bony.
