Spurs can offer better wages than us and the offer of CL football (having played at a club with consistent European football) would be too good to resist over a club that could only 'challenge' for a European spot. Saw a Spurs twitter feed yesterday stating they weren't interested any more ? Looking at their forums and a couple of apparently more reliable contributors say they aren't in for him.

Poch is all about brining young talent through. Can't see them spending £26m on Silva when he's just gonna get in the way of winks development.

Ok Stan, thanks. Only been on FT 4-5 years & still don't know who the 'reliable ITKs' are! But I think in one respect you're perhaps wrong? We can offer & do pay higher wages than Spurs. Kane for example is said to be on £90k pw, less than several at the KP. i hope Abrasive is misinformed, but if not that we're after a CM of comparable quality.

His basic is around 110k but with his appearance bonus (levy likes these), he pulls in around 150k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joachim1965 Posted 28 June 2017 Share Posted 28 June 2017 How you can say we are not as attractive as Stoke is beyond me, have you been to Stoke? It is an absolute shithole. Nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah.. other than a few 10s of millions maybe that we've won, it's a bit bias to say we're much ahead of them in terms of attraction I think personally. Sure money talks, but it's not like we have Man City money.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair they wouldn't offer more than us. Majority of Spurs players are on low wages and rest of contracts made up of bonuses so if they don't perform they don't get good money which is brilliant to be honest. Other clubs should operate like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the last 20 years we have won 2 league cups plus runners up, L1 champions, Championship champions, played in Europa League, quarter finalists of the champions league and won the premier league. Won the premier league! Had to say it twice. Plus we've been major worldwide news. That's a stack of silverware. Stoke and West Brom? Lets just say that they don't need to invest in buying any brasso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, we're a rollercoaster though aren't we. One minute we can't be beaten, the next we're horrid, the next we're back on track. We've been hugely successful, ahead of wba and stoke and we do have more money, maybe I'm wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Spuds were quite parsimonious with their wages. We have ambitious owners with money to match their ambition and, with a few astute additions, should be aiming for a Champs league place next season. We have just won the league. Lots of pointers that make us an attractive proposition. I don't think you can assume that Spuds have a drawing power much greater than ours.

StanSP Posted 28 June 2017 Share Posted 28 June 2017 i think some of us have delusions of grandeur Spurs are challenging for titles consistently now and are playing regular European football. In comparison to us, they're a far more attractive club to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 28 June 2017 Share Posted 28 June 2017 Suggesting we are more attractive prospect than Spurs is almost as stupid as suggesting Stoke and West Brom are a better proposition than us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
