Davor Ban some great news, thanks for sharing, here’s to the future of LFC and the success of the club... Oh yeh and let’s bring the title home in 2019/20 !!!💯👌🏼
@@Tifo Side question really. What software do you use to produce this animation? I'm a lifelong Liverpool fan (Kirkby lad) but also a multimedia designer. You've done a cracking job with this.
They've been a really good ownership group for the Boston Red Sox here in the states. On the field - but most importantly off the field and are one of the few teams who DIDN'T go out and build a new facility. Not only has the team been outstanding on the field, but they've really made bank off of it. A few of your old school Sox fans - long running sufferers - don't like a lot of the commercialization - you can buy bricks at the park, Fenway is horrendously expensive (like... incredibly expensive), and you can't turn around a corner without getting sold something - whether it's a photo of you and your friends at the park, food, shirts, etc - but it's also been necessary to keep Fenway viable, but also keep the club competitive on the field. I think a lot of this is what you'll continue to see at Anfield... Henry can be a bit clueless at times, but by sports owners - he's very good to one of the best, tbh.
I hate the Red Sux but it was Henry that made the decision to hire Epstein, the greatest baseball GM since Branch Rickey. Eptein ended 87 Years, then went to Chi Town and ended 108 years. But the Sux won two more after he left and may well win again this year. New Englanders have won so much noe theyve become Yankee/United/City type insufferable. But it all syarted with Henry's decision to keep Fenway and fix it up.
And as of 2018, FSG have hired one of the most popular Liverpool head coaches ever in Jurgen Klopp, have expanded the stadium by over 8,000 seats, set the world transfer record for buying a defender, set world transfer record for buying a goalkeeper, bought a player who broke the all time Premier league record for goals in a season, and have made it to 2 European finals (both the Europa and Champions League). So naturally they have been, and continue to be, protested against. It seems to not matter that the club are inarguably on the rise and in a far better situation under FSG, but that they are American capitalists.
Liverpool FC economy is very healthy right now, no reason to sell the club. The club with Klopp can consistently play in UCL and even try to win it. It can only get better.
Liverpool's total revenue (Matchday + Broadcast +Commercial) for this past season is going to surpass 500M as well for the first time ever. Mark my words!
Yes liverpool been suscesfull club by wining ucl 2019 but it is because of only klopp(liverpool manager) his genius tactics made liverpool win ucl and what job gilet and hicks did for liverpool spends somany money?. By spending somany money for a club is bad idea team will not be suscesfull team need good tactical manager and good pĺayers only
Outstanding presentation! I can only imagine what the 2019 sequel would be like, especially after their next shirt sponsorship deal gets worked out. Under FSG, Liverpool will be the model all clubs not swimming in oil money will look to emulate.
Fantastic. I’d love to see how the last 4yrs has improved things. Middle eastern pre season tours, recent player sales, tv money, champions league qualification and reaching the final, sleeve sponsors like WU all this must make our finances sower
One of the best video presentations on the net. Is that Prezi you are using??? Incedentally, you are correct that the club came very close to administration and a related demotion. The problem was not that RBS wanted repayment, they had all but written the debt off. The problem was that Hicks and Gillet were insolvent and if the FSG deal had collapsed because JH became impatient (and he did), there was no one (however much H&G liked to pretend there was) who could have taken over the club and complied with regulations before the salary bill forced administration, as RBS had their own problems and could not put more money in.
This year Liverpool will have 250m broadcast revenue and total revenues of ~550m. Club kit deal is up next season and apparently Nike willing to pay 80m/yr. They have done incredible work
Nowt wrong with blue and white, I wouldn't say no way if Liverpool unveiled a retro style away shirt in Liverpool's original blue and white, we should be proud of our origins and our heritage.
lol you typed a comment on this video 2 years ago saying Liverpool need to consistently qualify for the champions league and now they've not only qualified for it 3 seasons in a row, but made it to 2 finals and won the European cup a week ago lol.
Well this probably explains why they couldn't win EPL for last 30 years, team had financial crisis until 2010, then it needed time to achieve level of other top english clubs, and only starting last year we could see them as potential winners. So far, i see that who invest more into clubs, like Chelsea and Manchester(s), gets more power, consequently winning trophies. Pure business, babe
Great video Joe....A 4yr update in2020 would show how much of a healthy place Liverpool are in and with back to back CL finals and huge sponsorship next season it's looking good at L4
I know it's hard to stay away from red ink when creating a graphic about Liverpool, but as an accounting man I can't reconcile so much red ink in a positive way!
Small point but...(2:34) in 2010, *FSG* did not pay _anything_ to become total shareholders of the club. John Henry's group was known as *NESV* (New England Sports Ventures) until March 2011. Then it changed to Fenway Sports Group.
I just stumbled onto this site today and I'm impressed with the way it put together, Well Done. Would have liked the references as to where you got these figures from though. =)
Interesting video, and LFC has now well and truly smashed that shortfall of not qualifying for the Champions League. I hope FSG and Jurgen Klopp stick around for a long time.
Today Liverpool are profitable club that they can even pay for the most expensive defender on virgil van dijk and most expensive goalkeeper in Alisson becker before chelsea bought kepa arrizabalaga. Also another expensive transfers like Mohammed Salah, sadio mane, naby keita and fabinho that is prooving to be succeses with they are now are through the UCL final 2019 in madrid and EPL tittle contender with manchester city in the same year. They are one of the most powerful footbal club in europe now.
I think Michael Edwards has done excellent job in dealing with the player transfer. Whether it is about selling players or buying a new one, he done it wisely.
Extraordinary analysis! This certainly helps to understand why the entire set of aged and higher waged players were sold during the reign of Brendan Rodgers. For that period of mediocrity, Liverpool can now challenge for better players and higher honours under Jurgen Klopp as financially the club is in a comfortable position. Long may it continue!
FSG the best thing ever to happen to LFC. The thought of my beloved LFC going into administration makes me shudder. Awesome video. Can we have an update please because the new numbers will be staggering to say the least - YNWA
What gets me, is the stupid shite thats going around, Lpool are buying the league, while offering no context. Other teams hate the term net spending because it put them in a poor light. However Lpool have spent a bit of money. But lets get it right, Lpool lost a world class player in coutinho. and sold quite a few players that didnt suit Klopps style of play. Lpool took apart what they had, and used that what was gained, and put it to great use. However buying the league, is vast spending without selling to raise funds. Like Jose, under Klopp liverpool have spent just 18m of new money. All the rest is a result of having to sell before buying. Its like this... Lpool had a house, it wasnt great, so they thought, lets sell it, and with the money they made in selling it, they put 18m towards what they raised and brought a much much better house. Jose however, saw he had a ok house, but instead of selling it, he asked for 100's of millions, and brought a massive house, without selling the one he already had. there is a huge huge difference.
We are better run than Arsenal and getting more bang for buck via player transfers. Arsenal are stagnant under Kroenke and Tottenham success under Pochettino shows even with 6th largest revenue, Spurs can still get into Champions League 2 seasons in a row now (and beat Liverpool to CL for several years while Liverpool had financial problems in 2010/2011, 2011/2012, 2012/2013). Liverpool can take advantage of Arsenal and United's slump via Klopp's tactics. City too are also wasting money on expensive players that do not fit into a team dynamic. Liverpool have the best balanced team dynamic vs Arsenal, United and City currently in my opinion. A few defensive additions to add solidity and more attacking depth to cope with injuries will make Liverpool a consistent Champions League club.
Oliver Marawueke well we will see how Liverpool will do this year when they have to play more games. My opinion is that Liverpool is inconsistent and that they have poor quality bench
Takeover is impossible now. They have grown so much. John Henry and Michael Edwards are the real masterminds behind Liverpool’s incredible growth and success these past few years. They both deserve statues next to Klopp in their own right.
Hey Liverpool fans, be happy, because Henry spent so much that he told the Red Sox general manager that he didn't want to pay the luxury tax again so that ended our season
Great video. I'm interested to see how liverpools finances could change with the resignation of Ian Ayre and with the higher chance of champions league football under Klopp.
Not much to criticise about, but the Benteke sale was not a profit, if more of a break-even. Jordan Ibe, brad smith, joe allen and on a lesser extent, Skrtel provided enough funding to buy Mane without breaking the bank
Tifo Football this video is great... is it possible to do one as at 2020 maybe pretty season ending and then later post season ending, to show how much a league win adds to revenue, profitability and performance etc. Thanks!
i don't know what Henry would benefit from selling. the club is running well financially, good points, i'm not an accounting expert, but seems pretty cool.
they never paid the debt as early video says, transfer fees was very helpful, sponsorship from US is coming wildly Henry was a good entrepreneur because red boston sox was managed very wisely and investor had a good trust on him
Fenway haven't invested their own money, but the money is from selling players, sponsorships, gate money, merchandising and television contracts. The net spend per year is very low compared to other Premier League Clubs and the success of Jürgen Klopp and the back room staff is the reason for Liverpool Football Club on an upward curve and current European Champions. YNWA

Thanks for the Info Davor. If I were owner I would keep Liverpool FC until they carried me out Feetfirst.
@Davor Ban i think LFC is signing a deal with Nike which is supposed to be a record signing for jersey than all clubs
@Davor Ban Holy crap that's amazing

2019: LFC make it to a second straight Champions League final
2019: LFC win their first Champions League Cup since 2005.

As an economics student and a football fan, a channel couldn't be more interesting.
The level of research in your videos is both unrivalled and even in the positive comments undervalued
Bertie Woodcock So true.
Absolutely!
Yup so true
The fact they explain in layman's terms and whilst also appealing to economics/finance academia is so brilliant
Hicks and Gillette were horrific, John Henry has given the club room to improve and they’re reaping the benefits now
Though I am disappointed they didn't chase after Timo Werner aggressively.
@@AdarshKumar-nj7rp really?

Thanks!
@@Tifo Side question really. What software do you use to produce this animation?
I'm a lifelong Liverpool fan (Kirkby lad) but also a multimedia designer. You've done a cracking job with this.
They've been a really good ownership group for the Boston Red Sox here in the states. On the field - but most importantly off the field and are one of the few teams who DIDN'T go out and build a new facility. Not only has the team been outstanding on the field, but they've really made bank off of it. A few of your old school Sox fans - long running sufferers - don't like a lot of the commercialization - you can buy bricks at the park, Fenway is horrendously expensive (like... incredibly expensive), and you can't turn around a corner without getting sold something - whether it's a photo of you and your friends at the park, food, shirts, etc - but it's also been necessary to keep Fenway viable, but also keep the club competitive on the field.
I think a lot of this is what you'll continue to see at Anfield... Henry can be a bit clueless at times, but by sports owners - he's very good to one of the best, tbh.
Good to hear. Congrats on Red Sox champion! Hope Liverpool follow. Would be epic.
I hate the Red Sux but it was Henry that made the decision to hire Epstein, the greatest baseball GM since Branch Rickey. Eptein ended 87 Years, then went to Chi Town and ended 108 years. But the Sux won two more after he left and may well win again this year. New Englanders have won so much noe theyve become Yankee/United/City type insufferable. But it all syarted with Henry's decision to keep Fenway and fix it up.
This aged poorly, traded mookie and raised ticket prices, all in the name of payroll flexibility. Wouldnt amaze me if he injects that savings into LFC
And as of 2018, FSG have hired one of the most popular Liverpool head coaches ever in Jurgen Klopp, have expanded the stadium by over 8,000 seats, set the world transfer record for buying a defender, set world transfer record for buying a goalkeeper, bought a player who broke the all time Premier league record for goals in a season, and have made it to 2 European finals (both the Europa and Champions League).

Stop talking sense mate, they hate we on the rise!
yet the FSG out idiots still exist!!...i think they forget our last owners!
Also going to be the first club to announce 100 million profit 💯
Capitalism will bring them victory.
Now we are champion league winners 2019
Liverpool FC economy is very healthy right now, no reason to sell the club. The club with Klopp can consistently play in UCL and even try to win it. It can only get better.
80m Kit deal with Nike 💪💪💪
At the moment, so proud to have John Henry as the owner of my favourite club
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 what about now??
This video was made a few years ago. It's all gone gloriously right for Liverpool. John Henry is a winner.
This season 150m+ and 100m+ from PL & CL respectively. 1st club to cross 250M
Liverpool's total revenue (Matchday + Broadcast +Commercial) for this past season is going to surpass 500M as well for the first time ever. Mark my words!
Yet still less than Man Utd
You are so neat, precise and most importantly correct. You earned another subscriber, keep up the good work! #LFCFan
Would love to see an updated version of this video
Exactly..That's was thinking and went looking for because I thought he done updates every year..
