Village Idiot Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Yeah, I absolutely don't get people cheering on millionaires getting even richer Fair enough you don't care about owners pocketing the money, but I give two fucks whether footballers can buy two private jets instead of just one.

leffe186 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Matic to Man Utd I have to confess, I'm not looking forward to this season. The money is just...I dunno. I feel like the only thing holding me back from the tipping point is that Spurs are (a) doing well and (b) doing well in an admirable way. I don't think I'll ever be able to walk away entirely, but that taste in my mouth is getting worse and worse. Its a bit like Trump. So much everywhere you turn that you want to just give up. The Neymar debate is a perfect example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Getting use of a 90,000 seater stadium while you upgrade WHL is very admirable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Spending big brings pressure with it.. Only one of Man Utd, Man City or Chelsea can win the league. Leaving two of those teams with a taste of failure. Manager's get sacked and players move on. It's the circle of life. My point is, if I was a Spurs fan of be more than happy to keep my powder dry and let the other "big guns", cut each others throats. If Spurs spend smart they won't be far off the pack. They have already leapfrogged Arsenal and Liverpool IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 I doubt Spurs are keeping their powder dry so to speak, it's probably more to do with the fact the players that would improve them are either not interested or too expensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 They should be starting to give the likes of Alderwereld, Alli, Eriksen and Rose wages that they'd get at the likes of City if they're not going to buy players or want their current players to follow Walker.

Guest palnese Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 They've not got the money to pay top wages. The richest clubs will pick Spurs' players sooner or later. Players like Kane, Eriksen, Alli etc aren't going to hang around forever if players of similar quality or worse at City, Chelsea and Man Utd earn twice or three times as much as they do at Spurs. I think Tottenham have peaked and the only way is down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another year of TV money, Champions League money and then they'll have the upgraded stadium, they should be able to get better players moving forward.

triggs Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Don't know why everyone cares so much about Neymar leaving or not. If he thinks he'll be happier at PSG, whether that's to do with money or not then good luck to him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of footballers come from humble beginnings. If the sport is going to make billions off of their talent, them making lots of money is one of my least concerns. If not then the money would go to Adidas, Sky, Billionaire owners, shareholders etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm.... that's kind of my point. I'm not going to see Neymar making 500k a week and say the "oh the game's gone mad" when I know other parties are making x1000 more off his name and ability. Now the game has gone mad but it's not because Neymar is making half a milli in a week. Or at least that's probably the least unsavoury element of the whole thing.

Interpolic Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Regardless that'll be nearly £150m spent by Man Utd this summer on top of mental fees already paid previously while Mourinho moans about penny pinching. Not that they can't afford it like, just pointing out what a prat he continues to be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
