He's now earning £40 a minute...
Different world for him now, Spurs are missing him...Bale would have come up with a wonder strike against the Arse. Townsend was trying to replicate it but he's no where near that level of quality.
Big challenge for Spurs now is how their new players integrate, Eriksen was a good buy. Soldado was ploughing a lonely furrow against Arsenal, I've been served better in Costa than he was yesterday. Eriksen *should* give you that although there's question marks over his workrate from what I can gather.
Agree mate! I remember I was earning 70 pence an hour, I bloody wish I were a footballer! No doubt we are missing him but we all know he'd go eventually, I thought we would get one more season out of him.
I've always loved Townsend, I probably sound like a broken record with him in the past but I've always wanted him to get into the first team even when he was playing at youth level. Him, Mason and Caulker were always stand out players. He still has a lot to learn but I'm hoping he improves. I'm hoping he doesn't do a SWP, Lennon, Downing etc where he doesn't take it to another level. The talent is definitely there.
Agree about Soldado, he didn't get any service at all,
he had two shots that were well blocked, I'm sure both would have gone in otherwise. Hopefully we see more of Lamela and Eriksen soon enough. We still have other creative players in Townsend, Lennon, Chadli, Sigurdson, Holtby as well, so I'm not too concerned just yet.
How do you feel about your signings? Great start you've had so far and Suarez to come back still
