For one thing So’ton wouldn’t sell period because of Premier League TV money they wouldn’t have to.
But they were Champo then, if the next Bale popped up at Hull or something he’d cost 50M without breaking a sweat.
He was twice the prospect Sessegnon was at a similar stage of development, and it took Sess flopping horribly in the PL to nab him for 25M
Wow I forgot Jan was only 9.5 , that is definitely up there!
No beating the value with Bale, but in some sense I’ve always felt that we (‘Arry most of all) built the player he became.
He'd be in the top 20 for sure
I’d put Bale closely behind Modric and Hugo for the simple reasoning that in his position there is an abundance of talent and for example Sonny shortly followed Bale. However I do believe that a world class centre mid and keeper are much harder to come by compared to a world class winger.
we did, just most the team around him wasnt good enough. playmakers need quality around them.
Wikipedia is telling me Hugo was 12+4 in variables and that’s my recollection too.
That was an old school vans-in-the-dark deadline day swoop.
Then Clint Demspey out of nowhere the same day after his move to Liverpool fell through.

9 mill for vdv was a good deal
him and bale for value
hugo and modders next

Spot on, pal.
Real would ask minimum 25 mil for VdV if it was today. And So'ton wouldn't let Bale go for less than 20 or even 30 mil plus ridiculous incentives.
I'd be curious to know how much Boro may want for that Djed Spence. I bet it's like 15 mil minimum plus 5 mil in easy bonuses plus like 20% of resale benefits

Bale, Modric, Vertonghen.
Son is probably in the top 5. For what we paid and the 7 years (and hopefully more) of great service he's given us, he's been a great buy.

Modric was a club record fee at the time.
This whole thread is a lesson that the best transfers are not the biggest discounts, or the cleverest financial deals, or even the quickest profits (no one’s ever beating Kevin Wimmer on that one), but the best and most impactful players in a Spurs shirt.
We paid too much for Lloris and Sonny. Means nothing when you get it right.
