I could understand Suarez as he's a versatile player but Jackson Martinez is a #9, we've just spent £26m on one of those.
We haven't yet.

Cannot stress enough that every player has a price but on the sellers terms. So RM want to pay arguably 100m euros over 5 years at 20m per year which is a touch over 17m sterling. And we are to accept that crap and negotiate similar with our replacements?
Bale behaving like a spoilt brat apparently though he has not asked to leave, but made it known he wants to talk to RM. His advisors wants us to accept their terms and because we wont they use propaganda via all their trusted.
Bale would have gained a lot more respect had he availed himself to begin training stepped up to be included in our last friendly, Berbasulk written all over it. The board are totally right, and sooner that is accepted the better. If RM are so cash rich then pay up or simply shut up! The bank assurances that the seller would demand as per usual cannot be guaranteed by the buyer at this present time and not for now. certainly not over 5 years would anyone expect us to cave in.
Footballers can be selfish beings and is this now the case here with feigned injuries may one ask. My fear is what effect it has had on our preparations, along with the problems we have in midfield and center back.
What does AVB and the board to now? Stick or twist? It is safe to say we will not deal and Joe Lewis is not to be messed with when he feels someone is taking the mick.
Honestly if it ends up being like Modric the year before he left, which is in the end we don't sell, but the player is missing from first few games ... who cares
Bale, with last years team +Soldado, Paulinho, Nacer and return of Kaboul, Sandro ... in a year where every other top 4 challenger except the Scum have changed their manager ...
Absolutely worth any short term pouting from the player/agent
the whole team was pretty crap for the first few games that season....
Doing the business while Bale sulks....plus any new additions of course
Why do you say that Bale is sulking?
Its pathetic the way Spurs fans do this - some team like RM start publicly tapping up our players and then our fans turn against said player. Give the guy a break - with supporters like you saying things like that, I wouldn't blame him if he wanted out
What do you think he's doing? Let's not kid ourselves, he wants to go to Madrid and as things stand he's not allowed to. How do you think he's reacted to this? Do you really think he's just shrugged his shoulders and gone oh well, never mind. His convenient injury suggests not....
As long as he hasn't publicly said anything, we shouldn't, as supporters, just assume that he wants to leave and that he is sulking. That doesn't make sense at all. I'm all with AdamB on this one, give the guy a break, he has not yet said anything about wanting away from Spurs.

JJetset on SC:
We are going to be very strong this season and really be a force to be reckoned with.
Sorry but i do know what is happening with Gareth currently as of today and a load of crap being spoken. I appreciate all the other ITK's passing on info but you really have to take with a pinch(like mine) as you dont know how far they are from the source and who is telling their source. What i can guarantee (this is why i'm retiring)that they arent as close to the actual story as me. I dont mean that in a derogatory way at all its just a fact.
I personally really hope this all falls over and we get to keep Gareth however its just not the case unfortunately at this point in time.
I wont comment either on why AVB is saying something different.
Either way its going to be an exciting season for us IMHO.
