Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

It just goes to show how we can buy any player we want to, it Levy holding us back. We are never linked to top players when they become available.

But when theres a Dibling, Tel or other youngster, they are all over it. All over it after other hipster youngster clubs have their quotas full that is (Chelsea, Dortmund, Leipzig, Brighton etc...)

Weve basically turned into a poundland hipster club.
 
If I were him I’d want a loan. The other Bayern attackers are hardly spring chickens in football terms. He could easily come to England play some football and see where the land lies in the summer. I certainly wouldn’t be rushing to sign for us or Man Utd that’s for sure and if his agent is thinking of the player rather than his fee, that’s what he is telling him too.

They’re probably gonna try and sign Wirtz in the summer. We know what it’s like with Harry, he wants to play every game. The fact he doesn’t wanna wait around shows good charcter really.

Our 50m pays for half of Wirtz

They will flip Sane and another one and bring another talented winger.

I think Tel has an emotional decision to make because he’s attached to Bayern but as you say, it’s looks like he’s got the strength of character to accept what he’s actually needs to do.

I don't think we're Poundland. I think the potential problem with the hipster route is we pay Sainsbury's prices for a Poundland strategy.
 
As has been said, he's a 19 year old kid with a huge decision to make about his career so taking his time is understandable.

That said, I don't think he signs for us.
I think some people forget these are mostly young adults making life changing decisions sometimes. When me and the wife moved from Edinburgh to London when she got offered a really good job even we took a good week or so think about it, and that was a move we'd wanted to try for a long time. If we were pressured into a 24 hour decision window we'd have never done it.

Levy is too cautious in the the transfer market, but in this case it's just a kid making up his mind.
