Optimistic Nut Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 How much we got of the wage bill now then? Owen - £105,000 Viduka - £70,000? Cacapa - £30,000? Edgar - £10,000? Martins - £65,000? Bassong - £6,000 Beye - £50,000? Obviously only speculating from what we read in the papers but its got to be £300,000 at least. The thing with that is, we knew £200k of that was going off the wage bill anyway with Owen, Viduka & Cacapa out of contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leazes1986 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 £12m for somebody with one season's experience in the PL, great business. £12M? The Times reckons it's £8m up front, rising to £12m. We'll never get that extra £4m like, unless it's based on Spurs going for top four but ultimately being rubbish. That'll do! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Very much doubt we'll see the full £12m like. The £8m upfront will please Barclays but we're now short. I can totally understand the need to bring in a bit of cash and slash the wage bill but we do need to start bringing a few bodies in asap. The squad was thin before, it's fucking anorexic now.

Guest Heneage Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I tell you what Midds, watch us get lots of loans, and include the better reserves in, Baheng, Kadar, Lua Lua,and Vukic all be playing this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewellander Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I tell you what Midds, watch us get lots of loans, and include the better reserves in, Baheng, Kadar, Lua Lua,and Vukic all be playing this year. We'll only get loans if we have a proper manager in and show some stability, though. Who would want to loan out a player to us right now? Typically you loan out players because you want them to develop. I think sending anyone to us would be a risk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto2005 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Good signing for Spurs, with the right coaching and experience this guy could go all the way to the top. He's got everything to be a world class defender and I don't think that's kneejerk even after one season in the Premiership. Bassong is strong,fast and has good technical abilities for a center back, positioning can always be improved on but he's only young and that will come with time.

Wullie Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 GREAT BUSINESS. Meanwhile we start our Championship campaign on Saturday while Aston Villa and Wigan who we MUGGED for Milner and N'Zogbia will have to put up with the Premier League. Fucking losers.

Skirge Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 They get upto £16mill for Bent of the SMB and we sell them Bassong for £8mill... fkn crazy shit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto2005 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 They get upto £16mill for Bent of the SMB and we sell them Bassong for £8mill... fkn crazy shit That is bullshit and Bassong is worth more than 8m,clearly, but the departure of Bassong was inevitable because of relegation which means the price dwindles as we need the money and also because he's already declared he wanted to leave. In terms of Darren Bent, how the fuck can you pay 16m which is completely over the top anyway by about 6m considering his performances at Charlton were good and then sell him for 14m after he does fuck all? It goes from one extreme of a terrible signing on a financial level to great business on the same level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Past caring, he isnt the first player thats left that I would have liked to have seen stay, he wont be the last either.
