Chelsea's financial loss on missing out on the Champions League revealed.

Chelsea missing out on Champions League qualification implies a massive 65m loss.

Chelsea failed to qualify for the Champions League after a disappointing 2015/16 Premier League campaign
West London super-giants Chelsea have missed out on a staggering €65m qualification bonus by missing out on Champions League qualification for this season. The UEFA revealed these numbers after they put out a list of financial documents that read the television money each club earned from last season with the approximates for this term. Chelsea went into last season as the reigning champions and just didn't click under manager Jose Mourinho, with Hiddink brought back to the club to steady the ship, as they finished in a surprising tenth, not just missing out on the premier European club competition but the Europa League as well. The club lost out on two N’Golo Kante’s in terms of money, due to the club's terrible tenth place finish which resulted in a large financial loss for Chelsea.

However, the Blues just wrapped up two massive commercial deals with Nike worth €60m and Yokohama Tyres worth €40m balancing their expensive spree in the summer with the acquisitions of Kante, Luiz and Alonso to name a few coupled with the loss of television revenue. Although the club isn't in financial peril, the staggering loss of income comes after Chelsea topped the earnings from television revenue for English clubs for five consecutive seasons. Manchester City could change that statistic towards their favour due to Chelsea's failure to qualify for Europe, the first time since Roman Abramovich took charge of the club. In a shocking Premier League campaign last season that saw Leicester crowned champions, Chelsea endured the pain of missing out on Europe to London rivals in Arsenal and Tottenham, with City completing the top four. Since Chelsea’s dismal last campaign, Antonio Conte has come into the club and resettled them somewhat as they currently sit in fourth place with four wins on the bounce in the league. Conte’s arrival at the club has brought stability at the back with his shift to the back three and aggression all over the field for the entirety of the ninety minutes. Conte and Chelsea, given a minimum goal of reaching the Champions League by Russian owner Roman Abramovich, get set to welcome an excellent Everton side under Ronald Koeman.The Toffees have had a brilliant start to the season as they look to put a dent in Chelsea’s Champions League hopes and increase their chances of breaking into the top four, in what could be an equally enthralling season as compared to the last one.

The teams: Chelsea v Everton
Antonio Conte names an unchanged side from the one which won the previous three league outings.
Cesar Azpilicueta, David Luiz and Gary Cahill are again the three-man defence with Pedro continuing in attack with last weekend's goalscorers Diego Costa and Eden Hazard.

For Everton, goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg is back after injury, Phil Jagielka returns to their side and there is a place for Tom Cleverley.
Chelsea are expected to line up in the following 3-4-3 formation:
Courtois; Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill (c); Moses, Matic, Kante, Alonso; Pedro, Diego Costa, Hazard.
Subs: Begovic, Aina, Ivanovic, Terry , Chalobah, Oscar, Batshuayi.
Everton:
Stekelenburg; Coleman, Jagielka (c), Williams, Funes, Oviedo, Barry, Cleverley, Barkley, Bolasie, Lukaku.

Subs: Robles, Holgate, Lennon, Valencia, Davies, Deulofeu, Mirallas,
The referee is Robert Madley

Today Bayern and Atletico dropped points, So how is it different from other leagues? Why do I feel inferiority complex is why EPL fans need to reiterate that often and compensate for their failures in Europe

If a team equalize late we hear its EPL, if a team scores 4 goals we hear its epl, If a keeper saves 2 penalties we hear its EPL, when Leicester win the league we hear its EPL

Dayo, claiming the EPL has been a failure in Europe is significantly false and makes your subjective argument quite ridiculous to engage. you may want to be particular about the era you are speaking about.

The EPL has dominated European footy for decades, battled and dominated teams in that competition, presenting reps in the semi-finals for consecutive season during the era. Do i need to dig appearance facts of Man-Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea and even Arsenal who are yet to win the champions league.

Stop making general statements when you are trying so hard to be particular about an era.

Obviously the EPL has been a failure in EUrope in the last 5yrs which is the relevant time for consideration what you did in the past is irrelevant to current form

Like it will be ridiculous to call Celtic, Nottingham Forest Ajax or even AC Milan top teams now despite whatever they've achieved at some time
yet there was a time Milan, Liverpool Forest and Ajax were reccuring in Europes top competition final stages

Currently Atleitico and PSG have more relevance in Europe than those 4 former giants

EPL dominating footy for decades have no relevance just like Milan, Forest Ajax dominating for ages have no relevance currently except youre reviewing historical records

Currently Milan, Forest Ajax are poor clubs in Europe currently EPL is NOT a top league in Europe regardless of what theyve achieved in the distant past

Altetico did not exactly dominate the match. In the first half yes, they had a couple of chances (one off the post) and that was it. Mind, RealSocidead dey top half of the table, Middlebrough aint. The EPL is a different ball game.
