The news that Moon Sports Service Company was preparing for the European Youth Champions League appeared on major mainstream websites around the world after the press conference, which immediately attracted media attention and reports. The next day, it quickly landed in major newspapers and media around the world. Almost all newspapers concerned about football were reporting on this major event.

UEFA President Certificate Platini personally signed an authorization agreement with Paul Newman, CEO of Moon Sports Services.

At the end of the press conference, Paul Newman also announced the 32 participating teams, including Ajax, Rennes, Sporting Lisbon, Marseille and other teams with excellent youth training, as well as Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Tottenham Hotspur and other giant teams.

Moreover, this time Moon Sports Service Company has specially rebuilt the logo and brand of the European Youth Champions League. This is obviously a conscious act, and the purpose is to be able to distinguish it from the Champions League one day in the future. But for the time being, this event has to hold on to the thick thigh of the Champions League.

Fans around the world have given high praise to Moon Sports Service's move. Many people even believe that if the event of such a 19-year-old young player is well organized, the viewing will not be lost to the adult team, because many adult teams now play more physical competitions and their playing styles are more conservative.

Moon Sports Service Company has already had its own plan for how to operate this event, but it will not consider expanding the army or forming the so-called European Youth League Cup in a short period of time. After all, it is impossible to eat too much. Now the most important thing is to build the European Youth League first.

As long as this event is successful, then the so-called Youth League Cup or a series of other events will not be a natural thing? And if you expand blindly now, it will not be a good thing.

Paul Newman said at a press conference that someone introduced him to him that this person was Ye Qiu.

When Mark > Woburnton and Frank > McPalland hoped that Tottenham Hotspur could support their plan, Ye Qiu had in-depth exchanges with them and asked about their series of situations. The final result was that he was very optimistic about the plan and said that he was willing to support it vigorously, and even invested funds.

Mark > Woburnton and Frank > McPalland are not rich people, and they have no ambitions. They have been planning for two years and have never found investors. So when Ye Qiu agreed to support them, they immediately realized that the opportunity had come, because Ye Qiu's connections and financial resources in European football are well-known.

Later, Ye Qiu recommended it to Paul Newman. After all, if Tottenham Hotspur participates in this kind of thing, it will be bad. On the contrary, Moon Sports Service Company, which is becoming larger and larger, has stronger competitiveness, and has enough resources and financial resources to operate such an event independently.

So now Moon Sports Service Company has set up a subsidiary to operate this project.

Regarding Moon Sports Service's plan, experts have all expressed that if it is successful, it will completely change the current European football landscape, especially for young players aged 17 or 19, which will receive great attention.

This has certain benefits for young people, but it also poses great risks.

At the same time, this may greatly improve the mobility and value of young players. The reason is very simple. If the European Youth Champions League is successful, then they will form a transfer operation system similar to the existing European adult teams. The mobility of young players will become more frequent and the value of players will also rise.

Of course, everything in the world has advantages and disadvantages. It is beneficial to you, but it may not be necessary to others. It is impossible to have a good situation for you and I, everyone. Therefore, everyone maintains a wait-and-see strategy for the possible impact of this event, but they all believe that this is an improvement.

No matter what, everything will have to be done until the European Youth Champions League is successful.

But it is obvious that Tottenham Hotspur has made sufficient preparations in advance. As soon as the European Youth Champions League was announced and the group stage schedule was announced, Tottenham Hotspur logged in the ticket booking window on its official website. The game will be held in the Theobord training base, where there is a stadium that can accommodate 12,000 fans. If the seats are in full swing, it can be further expanded.

Judging from the ticket booking window, Tottenham Hotspur’s Ministry of Commerce clearly locked the potential football watching group of the European Youth Champions League in teenagers, so their ticket prices are also very cheap. Adult tickets are five pounds and children’s tickets are two pounds. Compared with first-team events, it is really good and cheap.

Tottenham Hotspur's youth team is very strong. This season, players including Lucas>Mora, Pogba, Coutinho, Neymar, Nick>Powell, Varane and other players may participate in this event. After all, they are more of a substitute and a reserve team competition. If they can participate in this higher-level European Youth Champions League, it will also be a help to them.

Because of this, as soon as the ticket booking window for Tottenham Hotspur youth team appeared, it immediately became the target of fans' pursuit in a few days. Many people even bought all the tickets for the entire group stage in one go, that is, three home games. Even if it was calculated based on adult tickets, it was only 15 pounds.

In September, in less than ten days, Tottenham Hotspur sold more than 7,000 European Youth Champions League tickets, which made other European teams feel out of reach, because many of them even sold less than 1,000 tickets, while Tottenham Hotspur’s tickets are so popular.

As early as last season's English Youth Cup final, Tottenham Hotspur played against Liverpool. This game was arranged to be held at the White Hart Lane Stadium. The stadium was full and full. Countless Tottenham Hotspur fans came to watch the game on site. A group of young people led by Nick Powell defeated Liverpool and successfully won the championship.

So, Tottenham Hotspur youth team is popular, which is traditional.

At the same time, Tottenham Hotspur official announced the team's financial situation last season, and the transfer income was not included in this financial statement. After all, Tottenham Hotspur is now owned by private owners, and the announcement of the financial situation is just to let fans know more about the team's situation.

In this financial statement, the team showed all Tottenham fans the team's operating results of the past season. The first is that the salary of the players was reduced by 12 million euros, mainly from the club's sales of several core players including Yaya>Toure, Fabregas, David>Silva.

But in the European arena, the team eventually stopped in the quarterfinals, resulting in a sharp drop in Tottenham's Champions League income. Relatively speaking, it is almost exactly the same as the reduction in the salary of the players.

In the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur successfully defended the champion, with revenue basically the same, without much change, and there was no breakthrough in daily income. It was just an increase of three million euros compared with the 2009/10 season, which can almost be considered no progress, which also shows the bottleneck of the White Hart Lane Stadium.

You should know that in terms of stadium operations and game day revenue, Tottenham Hotspur will be about 70 million euros less than Arsenal in a season, and the gap with Manchester United is about 70 million euros. It can be seen that Tottenham Hotspur’s biggest problem is home management.

The attendance rate is not a big problem, mainly because of the stadium capacity and the lack of potential to be tapped. At least the rent of an Arsenal restaurant is as high as 15 million euros a year. Not to mention ticket revenue, this is something that the White Hart Lane venue does not have.

However, Tottenham's commercial revenue this time was as high as 160 million euros, which undoubtedly greatly hit Tottenham's highest commercial operating income in history.

Compared with other European teams, Bayern Munich is the leader in business operations, with 178 million euros, but this part includes the commercial operation income of the Allianz Stadium, such as renting it to others to host some activities, etc. If this part is deducted, it is not very different from Tottenham Hotspur, about 40 million euros.

Real Madrid is 6 million euros less than Bayern Munich, Barcelona is 156 million euros, and Manchester United is 114 million euros, and they will all fall behind Tottenham Hotspur if they put aside the stadium's commercial revenue.

Manchester United's commercial income has not increased much, but this does not include a newly signed training service sponsorship contract of up to 10 million pounds. Moreover, in the past few years, Manchester United has indeed not made much breakthrough in commercial income. David > Jill has supported Manchester United's fiscal situation on the surface, but in fact it is not a big breakthrough.

You should know that Tottenham Hotspur's fiscal revenue has been setting new highs almost every year in the past few years, and teams such as Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Barcelona have also set new highs repeatedly. However, relatively speaking, Manchester United no longer has the sharpness of the early century, and the Red Devils' business empire's current reputation is somewhat unworthy.

Moreover, it also has debt and interest that has troubled Manchester United. They have paid £51.2 million in interest in the past season, and have also increased by 36.4% in terms of player costs. So although Manchester United has done a good job in opening up the source, severing expenses is a problem.

In general, Manchester United is no longer the position of business overlords in the past, but the value of the Red Devils brand is still quite high. However, in the field of business operations, veteran teams Real Madrid and Barcelona have performed well, but Bayern Munich and Totnam are undoubtedly the newcomers in this field, especially Tottenham.

If it weren't for the stadium, Tottenham Hotspur would have become the highest-paid football club in Europe now.

Tottenham Hotspur’s business revenue hit a new high, mainly due to the sponsor system.

BMW and Tottenham Hotspur re-signed a sponsorship contract with an amount of 12 million euros per year, which is the highest among all car sponsorships in Europe, and it also reflects BMW's emphasis on Tottenham Hotspur.

In addition, Tottenham Hotspur has ten chief partners in addition to Adidas and Qatar Airways. They pay the team 6 to 12 million euros in sponsorship every year, including BMW, Coca-Cola, Yingli Solar from China, etc., and there are also fifteen first-class partners, with annual payments ranging from 2 to 4 million euros.

There are also a range of other sponsors and partners, such as telecommunications companies in some Middle East and Asian countries.

It is such a huge sponsor system that has built Tottenham Hotspur’s business empire, allowing Tottenham Hotspur to make such excellent business breakthroughs every year. The business team led by Peter Kenyon will continue to further develop and tap the business potential of Tottenham Hotspur.

As a model of healthy Premier League operations, Tottenham Hotspur is very frugal in spending while achieving high income. The players' salaries are ranked seventh after Manchester City, West Ham United, Newcastle, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool in the Premier League, which is only seventh, surpassing Arsenal after a contract renewal in the past round.

It is precisely because of this that many media have previously believed that Tottenham Hotspur has some financial problems. For example, the team has never announced the use of transfer fee income to the public, and the team has made annual surpluses recently, but where has the funds been used?

But Tottenham Hotspur is not a listed company, so there is no need to make such a thorough announcement. And almost no one will believe that Ye Qiu, who has not received a half-cent salary from the club, will use Tottenham Hotspur to make money. He is now worth an amazing person. It is more than enough to buy ten Tottenham Hotspurs. Do you still need to make money by relying on Tottenham Hotspurs?

Therefore, fans only find it funny or curious about the media's bombardment, but there is no objection.

…………

…………

After two weeks of national team matches, Tottenham Hotspur reassembled to prepare for the match against West Ham United at Theoborde, and the team's youth team was preparing to meet the challenges from the Leverkusen youth team. This was also the first game of the European Youth Champions League, and the time was arranged in the blank time between the Premier League and the Champions League.

This is also the cunning point of broadcasters, who use this time difference to attract outside attention.

Ranieli's team learned from the lessons learned from the first two rounds of the game this time and played against Tottenham Hotspur. Even when playing at home, the Hammers still focused on defense, actively played in front of their goal, and then took advantage of the opportunity to counterattack to sneak attack Tottenham Hotspur, hoping to defeat their opponents at home.

Tottenham Hotspur did not dare to underestimate this time, and sent all the main players to play and visit Upson Stadium. Although the team was stubbornly sniped by the Hammers, they also withstood the defensive pressure from the home team. Although the two sides scored 0:0 in the first half, the initiative and advantages of the game were still firmly controlled by Tottenham Hotspur.

In the second half, Tottenham Hotspur finally made a strong effort. With the goals of Cavani and Messi, they defeated West Ham United 2:0 away and won a not-easy victory.

In this game, Tottenham Hotspur showed its steady and steady playing side. The 57% possession rate is in line with Tottenham Hotspur's usual effective ball control. The fourteen shots were ten more than West Ham United, but only five shots were on the goal. It can be seen that West Ham United has done quite well in defense.

Ranieri, a tutor, does have the strength. He is very clear about Tottenham Hotspur's strength and the free kick skills of Pirlo, Messi and others. Therefore, he must ensure defense, but at the same time, he requires players not to easily give the opponent a free kick opportunity within the 30-meter area, especially a front free kick opportunity.

You know, Pirlo is a monster who can use a free kick as a penalty kick.

West Ham United did a pretty good job in this regard. As a result, Tottenham Hotspur suffered fourteen fouls in the entire game, but failed to get a good free kick opportunity, and twelve corner kicks failed to create a threat.

Regarding the team's performance that seemed to have declined, Ye Qiu said at a post-match press conference that all this was within his expectations. "No team can maintain its best condition, especially considering that the players have just traveled a long distance to participate in the national team's game, I am very satisfied with this game!"

Ranieli said that Tottenham Hotspur's current strength is the only one in the Premier League. Other teams need to make more efforts to defeat Tottenham Hotspur, and he has repeatedly reiterated that the most important thing for West Ham United is to enter the top four in the league.

In this round, Liverpool lost 0-1 away to Stoke City, and the Reds will also visit White Hart Lane Stadium in the next game, while Manchester United slaughtered Bolton 5-0 away, showing their good competitive state, while Newcastle played a 0-0 dull battle.

After the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur youth team welcomed the youth team of the Bundesliga team Leverkusen at their home court on Monday, and set the clarion call of the European Youth Champions League. Ye Qiu also gave him enough sincerity in this game. Players such as Nick Powell, Lucas>Mora, Varane, Nastasic, Phil>Jones, Pogba and other players all started.

Tottenham Hotspur's group of young players are all under nineteen years old, which is in line with the experience of playing games, but they are also rich in professional experience. Leverkusen's youth team lost a terrible 0:7 in Theoborde!

This battle once again made Tottenham's youth team appear in front of all the fans. All Tottenham's fans who came to the scene were so lost. All the media said that the biggest opponent of Tottenham's youth team should be Barcelona's La Macia, or Real Madrid's Castia, or Ajax and other teams.

Two days after the end of the European Youth Champions League, on Wednesday, Tottenham Hotspur beat Leverkusen 2-0 at home. (To be continued)
