They have every right to expect actual cash money not promises and them gentleman's agreements Charlie Kane left with.

The fact that PoK not shooting the rumours down is a positive already.

Yeah I think so. Not the single tweet either. However, I think he is tempering expectations.

 

[Brian Fantana]

Shame we didn't get him from QPR I believe he went for less than £60m. Steve Kitchen I presume?

Mourinho turned the transfer down from memory.

Mourinho turned the transfer down from memory.

Probably better for Eze that he did.

If Eze comes in now, probably better for us that he never signed during the Jose days as well.

 

[White Hart]

Two things

1) he said he is spending it on a proven player not Gray , so it’s no clue whatsoever
2) It was a piss take of the i’’m as if it is his money, hence the fox and hounds , cos i presume he isn’t Levy

The actual name Gray not a clue?

All tied up tomorrow ...Eze on Sunday Morning?

Rules us out

 

[PatagoniaPhil]

Yeah but listen to what he says. Huge chunk up front. That will effectively rule spurs out.

Last time i looked we owed about 300m in transfer fees.

I doubt it does.

It might mean that budget other that Eze gets tight.

 

[Ulrikacoglou]

That is the type of player we need. We have players with pace but generally are shite at crossing and are useless b low blokes. I’d still be tempted to go 3 atb. Use Porro and destiny as the wide players. Any 2 in CM then play 2 10s say eze and MADDs behind son or another CF. That would instantly improve our defencive capabilities, improve our wide areas and give us 2 players who can create shit on their own. Imagine Kane with eze and MADDs behind and Porro swinging the ball in from the right!

Hello Mr Conte. Pleased you still have an interest in Spurs

 

[SouthCoastSpur]

Once again... Tottenham, Villa, West Ham and Everton are in for a player, yet it's only TOTTENHAM who are after a cut price deal...

I assume everyone else will be paying full whack for him...!

Only Spurs are interested in a CUT PRICE deal...

It's getting repetitive and boring now.
We GET IT!

You can't seriously be quoting Talksport as a reliable transfer source! Load of gumpf.

 

[Bazali]

Yeah but listen to what he says. Huge chunk up front. That will effectively rule spurs out.

I’m the hopeful type!

 

[Zomb]

And had a quarter of a billion in cash reserves

 

[ThePreacher]

Even 40 mil for Gray is way too much. He's an 18yo Champo kid with one season under his belt. One.

I'm spending 40 mil on a proven player, not a kid, I don't care if he's English/HG etc and whether he's got mad potential.

I know footy has gone mad a long time ago but come on, gotta get real.

Gray is not worth 40m.

Did nothing in the play off final to demand that type of money.

 

[Shotgunofmichalebrow]

Gray is not worth 40m.

Did nothing in the play off final to demand that type of money.

It's crazy the way folk are talking I'm wondering why Stammer I mean Southgate hasn't dropped Rice to accommodate him.

 

[nicoclaesen]

Gray is not worth 40m.

Did nothing in the play off final to demand that type of money.

Agreed but he’s the new shiny object for lots. £20 million max

 

[Richard Arlison]

Gray is not worth 40m.

Did nothing in the play off final to demand that type of money.

Because of one game?

The rest of his season firmly puts him in the top 3 British players in his age group.

Is that worth 40m? Who knows but it’s the going rate

 

[Richard Arlison]

It's crazy the way folk are talking I'm wondering why Stammer I mean Southgate hasn't dropped Rice to accommodate him.

Gray will end up twice the player Rice is now

 

[Jaynola]

Can't get a proven player for 40m mate.

Not unless they are in the last year of their contract and the stars align for them to only want Spurs.

40m for an 18 year old is very high I agree. Flipside is that 8m for Bergvall was unbelievably low. I gues the Championship is the reason why clubs are charging much more for young players because the pathway is established. Kids that do well in the champo usually step up well.

Didn't we pay 40 ish for Romero, when he'd just won Serie A's best defender?

Paid like 17 for Gugli, who'd been playing senior footy for a good few seasons.

Hojbjerg was a solid PL player when we brought him over from So'ton...25 mil think it was?

Defo doable.
