Player Mathys Tel

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

You're arguing with the Geezer who lauded the Werner loan deal as a great piece of business
You always go on about how we should act like a big club, spend the money that we obviously have and now you're backing a guy who is arguing that £10m is too much to spend?

Why do we care about the 'business' side of it?

You always say we shouldn't. So £5m loan fee, £10m loan fee or £50m loan fee. Who cares?

Regardless of what pundits and commentators are saying now, Tel is a massively rated talent who could become an unbelievable player and the club, between all of them, have made it happen.

I don't give a shit how much it cost.

I can't wait to see him play.
 
This is going to go down badly ;
but I’ve just got to vent my anxiety
( in hope of reassurance/ being told
that I’m being unreasonably negative).

50 million for a 19 year old is madness
( unless we’re taking Messi / Maradona etc ) .

The kid comes to Spurs ( after a bit of
shilly-shallying with other clubs I don’t like to mention) . Clubs who weren’t able to commit to whatever his agent was asking for .

So ; we get him for 20 odd games; in order that he can audition; for us and OTHERS .

He turns out to be the second coming of George Best in English football; confirms his “ promise “ etc ; Daniel smiling from ear to ear ( as are we ) . We go for our option to buy ( for fifty mill ) .

But Mathys has to agree .

“ Other Clubs “ now realise his value/worth .

Given that Mathys ( and his agent) have the ultimate say in the matter ; what’s to stop him opting for MU
( or even worse ; pulling a Sulzeer ) ?

( And putting his decision down to
“ I only came because of the Manager”). Assuming Ange leaves (which isn’t unrealistic)

That’s what troubles me .

Reassurance greatly needed . Thank You in advance.

12 goals in 60 games is 1 in 5.

Spurs concede at least 2 most games.

I don't get our support sometimes.

We've gone balls deep, on a punt loan, for a teenager not good enough to play for Bayern, who has told the world Spurs are shit and he would rather play for at least 3 of our rivals rather than us.

Zipedee fucking doodah.

Then fuck him. Shit happens. We move on.

He might do something good for us this season, and you never know help win a trophy.

If he’s shit, we’ve lost a few million but nothing major.

Ah and there we see it again.

'Spend the money you bald bastard'
'Spend the money you bald bastard'
'Spend the money you bald bastard'
'Spend the money you bald bastard'
'Spend the money you bald bastard'
'Spend the money you bald bastard'

'No not there, you dickhead!'
