It really is the only way he can get out of this with his pride and ego intact.
No-one wanted Solanke or RicharlisonThis is precisely why most of Spurs recent deals have come out of nowhere. Spurs know that as soon as it is public knowledge that a player is available at a certain price - the bigger clubs will simply take over. That is why Spurs were forced to outrageously overpay for the likes of Solanke & Richarlison.
Eze's camp made the move public - Spurs were allegedly fuming. Palace accepted the offer early, and Eze agreed personal terms - but stalled signing the deal. Clearly his agent went to Woolwich and was asked to wait whilst they worked out the finances.
If Savinho is available for 50-60m, Spurs will lose out to Newcastle who will desperately overpay.

We didn’t like it but we should have gone in for Ramsey and Grealish. They can at least get you up the pitch, really good ball retention, good technically. Grealish can draw fouls, handy if you’re putting in a lot of time on set pieces.
They’re not the top drawer signings that everyone’s dreaming of but the owners aren’t capable of doing those signings. We’re a fairly poor side that needs to start improving. We’re still think we’re the prime Kane/son team, we’re not we’re far off that. People got excited about the Burnley win but that wasn’t an encouraging performance to me. Really struggled on the ball against a promoted side. Up until the second goal the game was in the balance. If the club sit fairly idle these last 11 days we’ll be struggling near the bottom half of the league, that will happen.
I'd happily see us do it purely to fuck over Palace now, leave him at Leicester for the season for all I care, but just scupper Parish.
But that won't change in the coming days his reputation as a fucking clown will be enhanced 100 fold.
Oh, so you want to keep him???
He’ll be going to Palace. If that was the type we are going for then shut the doors
Plays on the right and certainly not one we should be spending £50 million on. We have kudus,deki and Johnson for the right. Sign a 10 and a LW y for fuck sake.Very true. Watch them waste a stupid amount of money on Dibling now.
Keep deluding yourself with that thought. The cunt will never leave. I've made my peace with it. I'm 27, so I have time ahead or me, but I do feel sad for the poor souls who will have to endure Levy's reign for the rest of their lives.Levy needs a very strong 11 days or he will be hounded out and forced to sell.
We need more than one. We have 60 games this season.
Don't worry, it's not sustainable. Soon all the other teams will go bust and we will win the lotgooner scum
Zubimendi = 55m
Madueke = 55m
Gyokeres = 65m
Eze = 65m
Noorgard = 11m
Mosquero = 11m
Kepa = 5m
They fucking finished 2nd..2nd....but trying everything to better that.
Meanwhile we fucking finish 17th and they give us
Kudus = 55m
Tel =40m
Takai =5m
Within weeks they realise "maybe the Tel signings wasn't very smart" and are desperately scrambling for a left winger hahahaa. It's so fucking incompetent it's actually semi funny.
This aged well.....
