Synopsis 

While Arsenal have regressed from being a UEFA Champions League club to a UEFA Europa League club – the only top six Premier League club not to have increased their revenue in 2018 – Spurs have gone in the other direction, and when financial results for 2018/2019 are revealed they will show that they have overtaken Arsenal (2017/2018 revenue: Arsenal £389m, Spurs £381m).

To have a successful business one must have a successful team. Both clubs are at the crossroads. What has brought them to this stage? In this presentation, Alex Fynn will argue that Arsenal, both on and off the field, have done a disservice to the glorious Wenger years, while Pochettino and Levy have taken Spurs, in European terms, to a higher level than they have ever reached in their entire history.

Can Unai Emery and Josh Kroenke restore Arsenal’s values? Can Mauricio Pochettino and Daniel Levy exploit their UEFA Champions League success?

The presentation draws on the just published: Fynn, A. & Cloake M. (September 2019). One Step From Glory: The story of Tottenham Hotspur’s Champions League Campaign 2018/2019.
