That's a great story, but how the negotiation went down is irrelevant. If Spurs paid players closer to what they're worth on the open market they wouldn't be in a situation where they stop playing some of the best players towards the end of seasons because Pochettino's feelings are hurt, and certainly wouldn't have to sell them to title rivals or occasionally lose them for way below market value like you will with Alderweireld next summer.

Spurs pay what they can afford to pay. It might not be as much as City can afford to pay but it is still more than all but 10-15 other clubs on the entire planet can afford to pay. Spurs will inevitably occasionally lose a player to one of the few richer clubs. No getting away from that.

Do you think the current squad have more to give or would you say it is a bit of a concern regarding pushing on. One other thing bud, do you think that Alderweirald (no idea how to spell his name, sorry),Rose and Dembele will be a bad smell or get stuck in? Not really sure of the situation with them and the management myself, maybe you have more of an idea?

Around about the same I reckon mate. Some will be in decline and some will kick on. Moura and N'Koudou had a great pre season, they could become a great attacking option off the bench or giving players a rest. Davison should get better every season, hes very raw right now but there are glimpses of a decent player there. No way as good as Jan or Toby mind

I'd like to see Skipp and Amos given a chance this year. Both youth players look decent!

I never have high expectations as a Spurs fan. If we won a few medals along the way I'd be laying into them a bit. People are always pretty black and white saying chuck money at it and we will win. It's not really worked for Liverpool, Arsenal and even United the past few seasons and we are talking each club spending 5 times as much in some cases and quadruple in wages

Spuds bunged Wembley more money to play there as their super dupa stadium is nowhere near ready.

No surprise really been looking at the YouTube updates of the ground and realised months ago that there is no chance they’ll play there when they said they would. Also thought they had a deal with an American football clubs to play games there in October is that now been cancelled.
 
I'm sure the PL rules state clubs have to play all their home games at the same stadium

If they play at Wembley they should have to play all 19 matches there

In the short term - no. But it lays the foundations for the sale of Spurs (and a possible London NFL franchise) to, for instance Facebook, and then we might be in a position to challenge City.

Liverpool spending £170m on goalkeeper, a two defensive midfielders and a someone who was a bit shit at Stoke will not challenge City either.

Facebook is a terrible example, no media organisation with their reach will ever be allowed to buy a PL team.

They do, but they applied for a special exemption and nobody objected.
