And Modric, and Bale, and Walker... FFS mate, you've just had a player poached by a direct rival. Willing sellers.
It's hilarious mate. He said that he should give some of his money to the Russian people, I pointed out that he has. He then tries to say that he's a crook, I mean what the **** has that got to do with the point he raised?
Walker was allowed to go because it was deemed that no significant weakening of the team would occur. A stupidly high bid was put in for a player we could well afford to lose.
I don't respond to things like that. So, he's a thief and a crook. He 'gave' what was expedient to keep him out of Siberia. Berezovsky wasn't so lucky!
That goes for every player, if he's not allowed to go then they can't go FFS. You're making this a lot more complicated than it is. When you stop selling players to rivals, you'll be right. Until then, you're wrong.
We have Walker-Peters, a member of the under 20's WC winning side. Plus who's to say we won't sign another RB? City well overpaid for Walker, so it's your statement that's stupid.
I'm getting very tired of you consistently trying to 'prove' your non existent point. Walker was willingly sold as City overpaid and we can do without him, simple as.
Most clubs with aspirations have two decent players for each position. However at Spurs if a player goes for more money and more chances of success he's not wanted (Ka-Ching). Mate you've been mugged off so many times as a selling club you wouldn't see a levy bonus if it smacked you straight in the gob.
