Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Pour les Bleus]

Are we sure Spurs genuinely pay their players about two thirds less than the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal, etc? I'm sure their players all enjoy playing for them, but would they really stay at a club on comparatively tiny contracts when inferior players at other clubs are earning millions more? I've never believed that Spurs have such a small wage budget.

I saw Gylfi at Reading quite a bit before he moved on to Germany before to Swansea and Spurs. Not the quickest but controlled the pace of games even as a youngster and was clearly leagues above Reading and the Championship. My only concern is in poor team he is clearly the star man, in a better theam he can't quite put his mark on the game. I'm a fan and think he'd be a great addition to the team but not for silly money.

BOOM!!! Didn't he follow that up with a second thunderbolt from a free kick too?

Nah. He got 2 against West Ham. Watch that free kick from a different angle to get a better idea of the distance. The power on that shot from that distance is unreal. Against Newcastle (spit) as well

Ah right ok never mind.

Hope we take heed from last summer and move on to new targets quickly. Spent far too long chasing people to end to with Valencia.

According to SSN,just now, Siggy has turned down 100k a week offer from Everton....Spurs will have to change their salary structure to come anywhere close to that.

He'd defo take a cut to go to spurs due to Champos league. Although I think that's all a rouse to get Barkley.

As for us, there's no way I'm having him pull our pants down for £100k a week.

They can get away with it due to being competitive.

We, and clubs like is, have to entice with £££ rather than on the pitch.

How many times do I have to say open play? Most of Sigurdsson's assists and goals are from dead ball situations.

A goal from a set piece is worth the same as one from open play though

I doubt it. Spurs have won nothing! Why would their best players stay for 70k a week when they see their fellow England internationals earning double in the same city or over in Manchester? Perhaps their players are on huge performance bonuses too alongside their relatively low standard wage.

Yes but they have Llorente we have no one.

Spurs pay a base low wage, with very high bonuses - including some which are very very easy to hit the targets to activate

Who know who will have come the start of the season
