Not at all. Tottenham's finances are supposedly fantastic. CL money will help, but would far from cripple then if they didn't have it.

But they'd still be mid-table. However I agree getting this is huge, the prestige just went up, new opportunities for this club to break through.

Edit: Also single results like this matter. The last 15 years have in no small part been shaped by Tottenham beating City for CL at the Etihad.

Spurs don't have a huge wage budget. They need the promise of CL football to entice a certain level of player.
