I am a big fan of Lescott but the fact Mancini played Kolo Toure against Bayern Munich away seems to me that Mancini might fancy a CB with more CL experience especially for the big games.Thenumber1blue said:Sorry he did put fact,so surely that means thats it and end of that mini debate!pudge said:Can you provide a link/interview as to where Mancini has said this?ANY1aBLUE said:Blimey, who have thought it - what a coincidence - and there was me thinking every time I see your name, the content can invariably be dismissed as; pointless,banal, tosh, and without substance............... and here we go again!
ps. Lescott is still an pretty good Premiership footballer; no more, no less - but not Champions League ability - our manager thinks the same, which is why he's trying to buy the finished article - fact.

Jnr Kisby said:If we do buy bale, will Mancini play him on the left wing, or the right?! lets not forget Johnson is a left winger...
It wasn't even remembered in the first place. Johnson's a right winger, a RIGHT WINGER. Even he said so himself that he's most comfortable on the right.Jnr Kisby said:If we do buy bale, will Mancini play him on the left wing, or the right?! lets not forget Johnson is a left winger...

Welcome to the board Dave. Daniel Levy's a very shrewd operator but players have the whip hand these days and Spurs have a tight wage structure like United used to before Rooney screwed them. But unlike United, Spurs can't offer regular CL football. Plus the transfer fee agenda is going to be shaped by FFP and fees like £50m are going to be harder to achieve possibly.DaveTheYid said:Bale will not be leaving Tottenham and when he does, It will be abroad for a fee that is over £50million pounds.
At the end of the day, You can say it's inflated or he is not worth that much, That's the price Levy will set out and considering the transfers that have been made recently where youtube hype jobs like Hazard playing in a league where Chamakh looks like a striker costs £32million, Levy has every right to demand £50million for Gareth because he has outperformed Hazard and Hulk in the Champions League with relative ease.
Well, then he'll never be sold and you will have an unhappy player, especially if you fail to get CL qualification next season again. If it's true he's on <£30k/week then if I was him I'd be really pissed as he could treble that wage at half a dozen clubs in the PL alone, us, dippers, rags, Chelsea, Arsenal - I'm fairly sure even some clubs like Sunderland, Newcastle would at least double his wage.DaveTheYid said:Bale will not be leaving Tottenham and when he does, It will be abroad for a fee that is over £50million pounds.

No-one will pay £50m for Bale (even us) when players like Nasri, Silva, Yaya, Mata, Sanchez, Fabregas etc are all going for £25m-£30m. Hazzard was an anomaly and Chelski are reverting to their 'buy at all costs' mentality. I'd say £25m would be a fair price with £30m being steep but not too unreasonable.
