Negredo goals per game: 0.42.
Soldado goals per game: 0.49.

Soldado gpg for Spain: 0.55.
Negredo gpg for Spain: 0.43.

Soldado for Valencia: 0.58.
Negredo for Sevilla: 0.50.

Soldado wins.

You're stats aren't fair, the quality of teams that they verse for Spain are different, they don't play the same amount of games and the quality the teams they play for are different (Valencia are better)

Based on last season Negredo was better

By 1 goal in the league having played 1 more game. Negredo had better stats last season. However over the course of his career Soldado has better stats, had better stats the year before than Negredo and if you think it's just a Valencia thing then Soldado also outperformed Negredo when he was in a much inferior Getafe outfit compared to Negredo being at a well performing Almeria.

My stats are perfectly fair in reality.

IMO they're just as good as each other both have a goal per minute ratio of 121 minutes (1 minute off van persie) but Negredo had a much better year than Soldado.

Even if Spurs keep Bale, bring in Soldado and a few more they are nowhere near title challengers. Strong top 4 candidates and title challengers are completely different. Compare their expected starting 11 to those of Us/Chelsea/united there's only Bale that would definitely get in the others starting 11. Couple of midfielders would make the bench and the rest would be lucky to make the squad. Top 4, very real possibility, title challengers, no chance.

Lloris? Vertonghen?

Paulinho is keeping our new £30 million signing out of the team for Brazil.

No, playing in the Ukraine was what was keeping him out of the team. And remember, this manager consistently picks Hulk, David Luiz and Luis Gustavo over Lucas Moura, Willian, Ronaldinho, Bernard, Dante, Marquinhos, Ramires, Lucas Leiva, Sandro and Fernando.

The location of Fernandinho's previous club is keeping him out of the Brazilian team, nothing else. This has been well documented and Fernandinho himself has said he had to leave because Brazilian selectors don't even go to watch players in Ukraine most of the time. At least not since Scolari returned.

RM bound.

Madrid can't afford him, they still owe us money for Modric. Read Madrid as a club is extremely political, what they are doing now is to appease their fans. If their supporters think that the club did everything they could to get Bale, but Daniel Levy refused to negotiate, that's good for the people running Madrid.

What will really happen imo (gut feeling), is that they'll sell us a player (Coentrao) to eliminate the debt they owe us for Modric, and hopefully since they need a striker now they'll buy Suarez. It makes far more sense than him moving to Arsenal - he wouldn't be banned for the first 8 games of the season, he wants to leave England because of the negative press, Liverpool would rather sell him to a non-rival.

Real Madrid can afford anyone, they're Real Madrid and they always find a way (they also have monster revenues to bypass FFP restrictions). Their net spend is also -£7million so far this summer despite them splashing out on Illarramendi and Isco. Napoli have given them over £50million for three players already and if they know they can sign Bale, they will probably cash in on one of their quality attacking midfielders.
