PSG pays all the moneys. Loads of trophies. Lives in Paris. Playing against farmers every week. It’s a great gig if we are being honest.
What's he always stood for?
Hope we can sign a couple of those farmers this window.
Doesn't care about money. Just wants to play. Which is why he's stayed at Ajax the last few years.
PSG is the ultimate "money" move.
Me too mate. Me too.
On the other hand, if he "just wants to play", he might as well play for the club who gives him the biggest wages...
He's only 19 where else would he have gone ? He couldn't have left holland until he was 18 anyway, could he?
Actually, I dont think it is.
France is a good development league. He'll win some cups. Compete in the champs league. Then in 3 years move to madrid.
PSG is just a rich ajax in a slightly bigger league. Makes more sense than joning Man U and ending up on the scrap heap.
Exactly. Its a good move for him.
Some people just cant handle other clubs having some doh
16 for EU players
If we didn’t have to lay out 60+m for a top class CH but we were guaranteed to spend that money elsewhere making sure we got the best possible player we could physically get for CM and elsewhere, who would keep Toby and let him walk for free next summer if he wants, and then buy that CH next season?
I’m in!!

I have a relative who works in the clubs accounts department, he's actually quite high up, he hears rumour and gossip around the office and also sits in on quite a few meetings. He was part of the stadium build steering committee for example. We speak fairly regularly and he tells me what he can ... all of this is caveated as just high level gossip ... he's been wrong on transfers stuff as often as he's right ... what he does have is very good info on finance, not that he will share much of that. The one thing he has said over and over is that Poch has always had access to a huge amount of money, he just hasn't been able to get the players he wanted. Let's hope that all changes this summer.
Something that may interest you - the stadium is/will generate income far in excess of even the most optimistic budget forecast ... Spurs are making more money on just about everything from ordinary ticket sales, to F&B, corporate, conference hire, advertising, sponsorship, etc. The accounts over the next couple of years will be mind blowing .... the idea was to close the gap on our rivals, think you will find we've done that and more ....

If that's true Levy isn't half the businessman we thought he was.
Oh he’s a businessman alright - he’s just not a football person and he’s never really trusted football people. I’m pretty sure he’ll fuck this up. I’m not too bothered though. I don’t live my life through this football club like I did when I was a kid.
Levy is our worst enemy
And who will pay good money for Tripps?
Children, please...
But you've still got Tripps and Sanchez in there which,means we have a back 2
Can anyone explain the relationship between Lewis and Levy to me?Where: TFC
When: Today
Who: John Thomas
Spurs Owner Joe Lewis thought to be preparing £55million offer to add another highly rated Picasso to fill gap in art collection.
