No offence mate, but you have to be absolutely deluded if you think spurs who have had shit wealthy backers for ages, won't have money after going into the CL. They always have money, its just that Levy wants a part in what gets bought. Very hung up on re sale values etc. Which is possibly why Cole wasn't signed, but exactly the reason why Milner may be.
I find the idea that Levy would sanction a £24m bid for Milner absolutely laughable, it simply isn't going to happen. Totally at odds with how he's run the club. And Spurs have already bought young Sandro for their midfield needs.
Add to which there's the new stadium and training ground to finance, and, well, you do the math as our cousins would say.
