Truth is, it's all about money and CL has almost nothing to do with it. Spurs had CL football for a number of years in a row, made the finals and we didn't have players clamouring to play for us. It's cash, plain and simple.
In other news (that I'm surprised isn't in this thread), Harry MacGuire had a little altercation on vacation in Greece. It's hard to know what happened there, but apparently some kind of fight with a police officer. There were conflicting reports that he and his friends tried to bribe the officer (while they say they were asking about what the fine was) and things got out of hand somehow. Now Sky Sports is tweeting that he was found guilty:

Surely if Eric Dier got a suspension for running into the stands, a fight with a police officer is going to mean some lengthy time off for him?
