The whole wage structure thing is a bit of a myth - as proved by Bale's new deal and signing Ade on a permanent deal.

There is, however, a wage budget which will not be exceeded.

There are no more than 10-20 clubs in the world that pay higher wages than Spurs.

Thing is we do not know the truth of those deals? Sure the wage ceiling is not as low as some thing but there has been suggestions Bale's contract was an automatic renewal for 4th and Ade is heavily subsidized by ManC.

The only thing im alarmed about is I wish we had one for either Hoilett or Moses as a backup to Bale or Lennon. They don't hav to be orthodox wingers, just pact tricky players who can go at the opposition.
I think both Dempsey and Dembele can support Ade in the absence of Lennon and Bale.

just heard we are thinking about re-signing Spase Dilevski to replace Modric
 
Re: Summer transfer thread, do NOT believe everything SSN "understand" #Levytime

If the time it took for the Lloris deal to be confirmed is anything to go by, we'll find out they probably signed Moutinho at about 7:30.

Yeh but it's who we've replaced them with, moutinho is the only player we have talked about bringing in who is on a par with modric or VDV ability wise with a ball at his feet, and were not even getting him.

Ability wise? How many of Sigurdsson's goals could Modric have scored? Did Modric score?

How many set-pieces did VdV score?

How many successful dribbles per game did either of them make, on average?

That is utter flimflam.

I think Moutinho might still be on...we are specialists at sneaking a signing through. And considering Lloris was seemingly done hours ago, I reckon we may have got most of the Moutinho stuff done already, just a matter of agreeing one sticking point maybe.

already done hours a go, Levy gets off on reading Glory Glory and seeing everyone having a meltdown, hence the delay

Dempsey the new Krancjar? and in other news SSN told us that Bassong is suspended:)

I'm glad you'e noticed that

also noticed that Thudd and Danny rose went out on loan...not a coincidence about those two for me personally

another thing i have noticed are the ages and serving length of the people removed. And the mentality associated with some of them, then compare it with the menatlity of the ones we have bought.

i sense a trend here

Not sure if your agreeing with me or argueing with me?? haha I'm thinking you are saying AVB is trying to get the older players with a rather 'fragile' mentality out to be replaced with younger mentally 'stronger' players?

Why not replace them with younger mentally stronger players with the same ability?

Have I picked you up right?

the real question is:

Does Lloris count as a sweeper keeper??
Click to expand...

Most definitely. He's lighter than your average big keeper - so more agile on his feet despite being 6.2

No afraid to come for crosses either, though his lighter weight may see him bash around by the stokes of this league.
 
Re: Summer transfer thread, do NOT believe everything SSN "understand" #Levytime

sorry, how much did Sunderland pay for Fletcher ??
 
It's a bit like getting a new pair of boots and a Spurs kit for Christmas, but not the Playstation you desperately wanted.

Erm....Dembele's magnificent at dribbling, Dempsey's scored 20+ goals last season and is a brilliant attacker of the ball, Vertonghen is the current Dutch player of the year and is renowned for his technical ability, Sigurdsson's got fantastic technique from long range, and Lloris is a keeper who likes to recycle possession.

All the creativity we had last season didn't help us when facing those 'ten men behind the ball' teams. Now, we can dribble through them with Dembele, fire in long shots with Gylfi, use Dempsey as an inside forward/attacker of the ball or use all three. So yes, we've lost this nebulous 'creativity'. We've gained some magnificent new options, though. I don't think we'll see so many teams frustrating us anymore.

Great post Dubai. Helps us all look on the positives of the window. Well done.
