I don't want Spurs to pay for another Frenchman's taxi

I can see some similarities between Freo and Spurs too. Both have some absolute young guns who look like tearing it up over the next decade.Freo here mate. Our fortunes haven’t been as dramatic as yours the last 15 years or so but we’re not far off. At least you have flags, but I guess that’s where the similarities with Spurs are for you. We’ve got a lone McClelland trophy on the mantelpiece from ten years ago.
We paid £60-£65 mil on both Richy and Solanke£40 to 50 million transfer fee
£60,000 per week salary

Son is finished at this level mate. My prayer is we get an unsentimental manager in the summer who sells him to Saudi for £40m while we can still get that for him off his name value. Wissa would certainly be a stronger option than Son at 9 who offers worse than nothing. Kulu only really plays off the right when he plays wide so not massively relevant, Solanke does likely start at 9 over Wissa but Wissa would very likely start off the left for us even with all fit right now.I'm not convinced Wissa starts for us when we've a fully fit team available (if that will ever happen again!). Kulusevski Solanke Son would all start over him. Debatable if he'd be much of an upgrade on Richarlison and Brennan too (when they are on form). Tel would start for us. I think he'd push all 3 close and he'd be well clear of Richarlison and Brennan

Don't forget go-carting down in the basement after games!We can offer something no other club can, I think it gives us the edge . Working for Daniel Levy is character building, look how many players have been successful once leaving Spurs . All that success is due to the appalling way our club is run , what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger . So come on Tel are you brave enough to suffer 3 years of abject failure with us for glory elsewhere in the future.
Thing is, Brentford don’t want to sell Wissa and they know how much we need a forward. Plus we fucked them over with Gray. They were in the race for Bergvall too.
Wissa is the much harder deal to do with the club.
