well the video goes into the financials of whether or not it's worth for them to keep him even if they finish top 4.
to which the answer is: no
To be fair they didn't factor in, because it's hard, the intangibles. Yeah you get X amount for finishing top 4 and for playing CL, but what about the money you have to spend on players? it's presumably cheaper/easier to sign players when you are in the CL.
I understand that in a direct comparison the answer is no, but from a sporting perspective remaining in the top 4 is imperative and I'm sure there is some value there that is quite subjective.
I don't know how they compete in the market at this point in time, given how much their competitors are willing to spend on fees and wages. CL would help in attracting talent but that doesn't seem like a reality in the next 2 or 3 years.
they also show the trend for them, Tottenham making top 4 last season was the fluke, not their current trend, which kinda means they are ripe for rebuild.
They also already have richarlison, who as shown in the video is a better fit (obviously not a better player) than Kane for their new manager.
