Kyle Walker

[Lancet Fluke]

I didn't highlight him as a bad buy. I pointed to the fact they've got a bench (which Son is on) that costs well over £100m when someone said how brilliant they were for having a starting XI that only cost £100m.

Apologies, I misunderstood. Probably because he was in a list where the other players were fairly poor.

I have no idea what Pochettino earns but I see no rationale as to why Spurs wouldn't pay the going rate for a top coach should they need to replace him.

Because they don't pay anyone the going rate? They pay their players half what they get elsewhere, and their managers are the same. Same reason they failed to get anyone decent before Pochettino.

Spurs look solid to me. I don't think managerial change is imminent, but if it was they'd be able to appoint a really top coach.

Spuds are in the classic win / lose situation they have done well to get where they are but they don't pay top whack in wages so they are not going to sign any 'BIG' players and all the players they have are going to want big pay rises as soon as they sign average players on the same rate as the so called top players I think they are very close to falling apart.

Daniel Levy is Bill Kenwright but with better PR and a club in London making certain things a little easier.

Like who? They pay Pochettino less than Everton pay Koeman. They won't pay for a top coach, their only chance of replacing Pochettino is if a smaller club like Southampton manage to find another gem and Spurs can bully their way in.

As for solid, lets see how long it takes for all their players to start leaving when they decide that coming close to trophies for half the wages they could be earning isn't that great. Walker is leaving us and his £60,000 a week wage will defintiely have something to do with it. Alderweireld is demanding 2x his wages and running his contract down.

Just out of curiosity how do you know what salarys managers are on. Also players?

Because it's widely reported FFS. Stop trying to be edgy and claim no one knows anything about the financials ever.

We surely need at least one new RB and LB for the pre season tour?

Alves and Kolorov no problem, must have some kids give them a whirl it is only pre season.

Would be fantastic if that could happen mate. Didn't Tolmie mention that the buying would be finished for the start of pre season? Guess it can't be helped if levy and Monaco up the price suddenly
