    Cameron Carter Vickers will be better than either of them!

    Gentleman's agreement? We know what Levy thinks of those. No chance.

    Saido Berahino

    When Peace says that he (or WBA) has no interest in selling Berahino, that's not entirely true. Berahino only has two years remaining on his contract. Short of a season of seasons, he is never going to be more valuable to them than he is now. With only one year on his contract, he will be worth...

    Assuming that there has actually been a Fazio bid and that it's not just another wildly inaccurate rumour.

    THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR TRANSFER EVERYONE LOOK AT ME TOTALISER EXTRAVAGANZA

    Analogy time: You own a manufacturing company. It's a decent, well run company (because you run it well) worth £1 million. But it requires a significant investment in new premises, machinery and technology for it to grow and reach its potential. So you go to the banks for borrowing. The banks...

    It is? News to me! Even if we don't sign Berahino (and I'm fairly certain that we will), it doesn't mean that Llorente is our only remaining option. We don't even know if he is an option at all.

    THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR TRANSFER EVERYONE LOOK AT ME TOTALISER EXTRAVAGANZA

    Apples and oranges and, with respect, as nonsensical as some of your previous arguments! If you pay £2000 for a season ticket, then your return is that you get to watch 21 Tottenham Hotspur home games from one of the best seats at White Hart Lane during that season and you get priority booking...

    THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR TRANSFER EVERYONE LOOK AT ME TOTALISER EXTRAVAGANZA

    £66m is the money they have invested into Spurs. £120-150m is the total amount that they have spent on accumulating their shareholding - the £66m plus the total paid to buy shares from other shareholders. All profits that the club makes ARE reinvested.

    THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR TRANSFER EVERYONE LOOK AT ME TOTALISER EXTRAVAGANZA

    This post beggars belief! Firstly, investment is absolutely not "always the the best way to better an asset". It's a bizarre notion! For instance, nationalised companies back in the day had money literally thrown at them - and they were complete basket cases. The key to increasing the value...

    My understanding is that that loan has now been converted into equity.

    Firstly, ENIC have put some of their own money in. £40m of it a little over a year or so ago; £15m five years before that; and £11m five years before that. £66m in total, give or take. Not a huge amount in the context of what has happened at Chelsea and City, granted, but not an inconsiderable...

    THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR TRANSFER EVERYONE LOOK AT ME TOTALISER EXTRAVAGANZA

    Gazzasrightboot has already answered the first part of your post very well. For the time being, at least, ENIC's best interests and Spurs' happen to coincide. It therefore makes no sense to criticise or begrudge ENIC for increasing the value of their asset by building a new training centre and a...

    No, thanks. Not the player he once was or promised to be. Not suited to the Premier League.

    THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR TRANSFER EVERYONE LOOK AT ME TOTALISER EXTRAVAGANZA

    It's not as if Spurs have spent some £160m on the training ground, stadium property acquisition and stadium planning and site preparation in that time, eh? Nor is it as if Spurs will have to spend a further £400m odd on stadium costs over the coming three years. Nor is it as if lenders will need...

    I don't mind Fazio. But the truth is that we can't accommodate him now. We have four other centre backs. And we have Cameron Carter Vickers as backup if required.

    I can believe that he might do so. But why should he do so?

    Hopefully, we wouldn't have agreed the Fazio deal without first (or simultaneously) getting an agreement from West Brom for the Berahino deal. I can't imagine Levy wasting such a bargaining chip.

    £21m for Griezman? Arf! Atletico paid more than that when they bought him last summer - and he has since had an outstanding season for them. Furthermore, there is a huge buyout clause on his contract. Two or three times £21m. Chelsea would be lucky to get him for a penny less than £30m...

    The youth players/on-loan thread 2015-16

    Warburton is a big Spurs fan who already has a very good relationship with John McDermott, among others at the club. I think it's safe to say that he would be prepared to make a whole heap of compromises (that he wouldn't make at a club like Brentford) if he was offered the Spurs job!
