I tried to sell just one of those on E-Bay......... but it was a a flop.....
Didn't Davies and Winks also sign contracts this summer? Is that what you meant?Moura's contract extension is the only one announced.

Davies and Winks sign new Spurs deals
Ben Davies and Harry Winks both sign new five-year contracts with Premier League club Tottenham.www.bbc.co.uk
Let's suppose you're correct, what length of contract and how much would you offer the 3 players and how does it compare to what Spurs have already offered them?
Not seen anything on Lamela but maybe yeahAlso I read somewhere on here Lamela has extended his contract?

Yeah, I was going to say. I thought that's what you were talking about.Point I was trying to make is I'm pretty sure a lot of contract extensions have been offered - for example players like Kane and Son are almost certain to have been offered new contracts and likely accepted them.
However only a few have been announced (and no reason why the new deals should have been announced, but fans expect to hear) and imo its probably linked to European clubs having a 3 week period before their TW where some of our players could be sitting ducks if those overseas clubs knew which players to target.

I think Levy is concerned our wage bill could get out of hand if Eriksen, Rose, Jan, Toby all sign new contracts. We got Trippier and Jansen off the books (and probably Nando), but they were low earners anyway, and almost everyone else has signed a new deal in the last couple years.
(Yes I know our wage bill is still lower than other top 6 clubs.)
That's my point though (to the OP) - we don't know what's been offered, maybe we've been really generous, maybe we haven't but without that knowledge the way we choose to react is just a reflection of what we think of the board.Who knows what Spurs have offered them - any more than it would be appropriate to publish your bosses assessment of you and pay rises. We'll only find out when/if the contract extension is announced
But fair to say that Spurs have offered lots of contract extensions and pay rises on a regular basis to most of the players.
Look at all the childish idiots that immediately jump on me for making this thread because they already dislike me because I dared to say during that transfer window that we needed to sign players.
And because now I am saying we need to keep our best players like Jan and that's it's clear something not quite right is going on they are immediately calling me negative again showing their pathetic little agendas.
And funny enough, it was a player that we signed who scored our first goal yesterday which led us to victory as well so I was incredibly wrong in my assesment of us needing to sign players apparently, what a negative cunt I am for wanting the team I support to improve or not lose its best players.
Absolutely bang on the money, mate.There's that word again, "melting" a lovely word that all the deflectors use when they don't have a reasonable argument.

TFC translation for the newcomers
Melter: Someone who asks the awkward questions, rather than brush them under the carpet. A passionate fan who would like to see our club push on and keep their best players etc...
Melter and proud.
You just have an ulterior motive to drag the club down at any opportunity. Most decent fans see through this and can see what a negative boring twat you are.
