Good self-congratulation skills oh wise seer.

Not congratulating myself at all, just acknowledging your own post has inadvertently pointed out I backed the players when they were performing while others wanted them sold to West Brom and Swansea

Funny how none of you was behind Winks back then isn’t it
 
Declan Rice would be the perfect addition to our squad, what sort of price would the Hammers demand? I also like the look of Jarrod Bowen as a creative force. Probably unlikely West Ham would sell given the positive nature of their season.
Yeah and Antonio would be perfect compliment / backup / competition for Harry and soucek is twice the player hojbjerg is

Im sure spam will be up for us destroying their best ever prem side

I highly suspect the Barcelona financial crisis firesale meant the terms of the deal very likely suited better.

Edit: Well imagine my surprise...


The move is initially said to have stalled over the structure of payments after a £17m fee was discussed.

Spurs were ideally looking to spread the payments over a series of instalments but Bologna would prefer the cash upfront.


Additionally, Royal was a 5 year deal, so longer to pay it off. Thrifty.
IF this story is true (I don't doubt it) one should seriously question Levy's way of doing business! Spurs could easily have agreed to Bologna's demand as they could easily afford the £17m (Woolwich did agree and Spurs are in a better financial situation than them) and instead decide to buy another player because of a payment structure that suits Levy & Lewis better.
That may not be the case but it sounds like Levy & Lewis
