2017/18 Ross Barkley

[riddick]

I don't think you are arguing against Spurs, I think you are arguing against Levy.

I mostly disagree with arguments against Levy because it really just comes down to the maths of the situation from the official accounts which I take a look at every year. We earn a certain amount per year and it's significantly less than those other 5 clubs and the only thing we can do about it is what we are currently doing.

Also I would say that one of those players we bought with the Bale money was Eriksen who in todays market is probably worth close to what we sold Bale for so it's ended up not bad at all.

I argue with me mate on a weekly basis, wasn't Eriksen bought before Bale? Regardless, he's 2nd/3rd best playmaker in league behind Silva/DeBruyne..

Here's a pic of our fab 7 at the end of the summer we sold Bale. All were pretty much failiures apart from Eriksen and Lamela.

Chadli served us well as well to be fair and made us a nice profit on his sale.

He will be sold cheap. The club won't risk losing him on a free

They will we don't need the cash remember lol well if we don't then he won't if we do then maybe.but I can't see us going oh here u go spurs 50 mill Na 25 he's yours - just can't see us doing it

Stay and learn from Rooney or Tom Davies will and take your England squad spot

Not everybody at all. Everton couldn't afford to pay them more, or if they could it would only be by having an unfair wage structure where 1 player earns way more than everybody else.

The whole situation is very simple maths so I really can't undestand where you are coming from. Levy can't pull money off trees, he pays them the same proportion of turnover he has always paid the players and it's directly linked to how much money Tottenham get.

What would your idea be? To make it 80% of the clubs turnover and run the club into the ground like Leeds or Portsmouth?

We aren't around you tho are we? We are the best of the rest.. but nowhere near top 4... which is where you are

I wonder if Ross knows who Franny Jeffers is.

 

[d34noj]

Christ, fate worse than death.

God he must be desperate to leave if that is the case. To take a potential 30% wage cut is unheard of in the modern game. I'm sure Daniel Levy is hoping he can have the same effect on the rest of the spurs dressing room unlike Danny Rose.
