    With Danny Rose openly criticising Spurs' penny pinching wage structure and seemingly agitating for a move, we've also seen the Standard reporting that 'Senior Spurs players are frustrated' at Spurs' wage structure.

    It's no secret that Spurs cannot continue to pay peanuts and expect their best players to stay put. With a new stadium to pay for Levy and Pooch have said that they will develop youth instead of buying in new players on big wages.

    With players like Kane, Alli, Erikson, Lloris, Vertonghen, Alderwiereld etc all knowing that they can triple their wages elsewhere and improve their prospects of winning trophies, surely it's only a matter of time before more Spurs players voice their concerns. We've already seen one of their top players jump ship for Man City, could others follow ?

    Who will be the next Spud player to openly criticise Spurs' penny pinching ?

    Alderwierweld probably, I think he's been stalling on a new contract. Kane won't

    My money is on Alli.
    He is young and influential, when he spends more time with the England squad and sees the like of Cahill, Lallana et all, earning 3 times his salary, he will start to feel aggrieved.

    Gone for Dele Alli.

    Would have gone for Eriksen too if he was listed.

    I've gone with 'other' as I think it'll be Dier. He's been heavily linked with an exit and I reckon he was all for leaving until his unrealistic price tag was slapped on his head.

    Alderweireld appears to want a wage rise/new contract more than an exit at this point.

    I would have gone with Dier had United not signed Matic.

    United appeared to be the only club that were really interested in Dier although I can't say the story interested me.

    If Dier continues to improve, I could see him at Arsenal to replace Jack Wilshere whose Arsenal career seems to be done.

    Kane will be okay for a while, seeing as he can't count past six.
    Until his agent corrupts him.

    I'd say we'd still take him if he become available for a reasonable price.

    The last time he counted past 6 he was rushed into A and E over fears he'd drowned in his own saliva.

    It will be whoever wants a season in the developement squad out of the limelight and almost certainly out of the 2018 World Cup

  14. Kane has said that he won't leave Spurs, and that it isn't about the money.

    Do you think he is grazing on Poncettos ball sack?
