    Market Pool is something to do with the TV revenue from CL games, it's split between the qualifiers. Read that somewhere last week, no idea how it's shared out though.

    market pool appears to be directly related to finishing position in the group

    Group A finished

    Monaco
    Liverpool
    Oylimpiakos
    Deportivoo

    But the money table for market pool is

    Liverpool
    Monaco
    Deportivo
    Oylimpiakos

    So no-one finished in the same position.

    Any idea what exactly "Market - Pool" is? Arsenal got almost €17m from that.

    I believe this is the money allocated to each country based on TV revenue within that "market". England provides UEFA's largest yield, so they share the largest slice of the pie. I was also led to believe that of this amount, the largest share was awarded to the league champions, and subsequent qualifiers received a lesser amount working from 2nd to 4th. However, Liverpool received €13+ million and ManYoo only got €9+ million, so I'm not 100% sure of that.

    Actually, found this:

    http://www.xs4all.nl/~kassiesa/bert/uefa/news/000925b.html

    Its from 2000, but it sheds some light...
    Share for the 32 clubs participating in the UEFA Champions League
    The net amount of CHF 611 million (CHF 643 million in revenue less CHF
    32 million for the professional leagues of the participating
    associations) available to the clubs will be split into a fixed amount
    of CHF 332 million (starting bonuses, performance bonuses, match
    bonuses) and a flexible amount of CHF 279 million (market pool).
    1. Fixed amount (CHF 332 million)
    • Each of the 32 clubs involved in the first group stage will receive
    a starting bonus of CHF 1.5 million.
    • In addition, they will receive a match bonus of CHF 500,000 per
    match. This bonus also applies to the second group stage.
    • On top of this, there will be performance bonuses: CHF 500,000 for
    a win and CHF 250,000 for a draw in the group stages. The eight
    quarter-finalists will receive CHF 4 million each and the four semi-
    finalists CHF 5 million each. The UEFA Champions League winners will
    receive CHF 10 million and the runners-up CHF 6 million.
    This means that a total minimum amount of CHF 4.5 million per club is
    guaranteed for the first group stage. A club can be allocated, at
    best, up to CHF 32.5 million, not counting the market pool share and
    gate receipts.
    2. Market pool (CHF 279 million)
    The remaining balance of CHF 279 million will be distributed according
    to the proportional value of each TV market represented by the clubs
    taking part in the UEFA Champions League, and be split among the
    number of teams (4, 3, 2 or 1) participating from a given association.
    • Half of the amount representing the value of each market will be
    split among clubs, based on their performance in the previous
    domestic league championship. The following split among the teams
    from a given association would apply:

    4 teams 3 teams 2 teams 1 team




    Champions 40% 45% 55% 100%
    Runners-up 30% 35% 45%
    No. 3 15% 20%
    No. 4 15%

    For Spain, since Real Madrid CF did not qualify through its domestic
    league but as UEFA Champions League title- holders, the split among
    the Spanish teams will be as follows:

    4 teams

    Champions 30%
    Runners-up 25%
    No. 3 15%
    Real Madrid CF 30%

    • The other half of the amount representing the value of each market
    will be paid in proportion to the number of matches played by
    each team in the 2000/01 UEFA Champions League.

    The various amounts distributed club by club via the TV market
    share can only be confirmed once the 32 teams involved in the UEFA
    Champions League have been confirmed, as the markets concerned are not
    yet known at this stage, nor how many teams from a given market will
    be represented. These questions can only be answered when the third
    and last qualifying round is completed on Wednesday, 23 August, two
    days before the draw. UEFA assumes that the five strongest markets
    will receive a share of between CHF 40 and 62 million each, depending
    on the television contracts signed with each market.

    The exact amount for each club depends on four factors:
    1. How many clubs from a market compete in the UEFA Champions League
    (for example, two may qualify automatically, and another two via
    the third qualifying round).
    2. The league standing of the club in the previous season's domestic
    championship.
    3. Its performance in the UEFA Champions League.
    4. The performances of other clubs from the same country in the UEFA
    Champions League.
    Depending on these four factors and on the respective market value of
    its country, a club can be allocated, at best, up to about CHF 30
    million as a market pool share.

    Its down to the TV difference I presume, ie SKY and ITV paid more for the Liverpool games than French Tv did to show Monaco.

    Note: earnings reflect performance bonuses plus share of market pool (money from TV, sponsorship and new media) distributed according to the proportional value of each TV market. Clubs' earnings depend on number of matches played in Champions League and where they finished in domestic league the previous season.

    Mike.
