Oh sorry I didn't realise you had sat down in a room with all of your top players and listened to them all promise you that they won't be moving.

My bad, as you were pal.

Pretty piss poor attempt at trying to ignore what I said. Which was the truth.
 
I don't reckon they'll lose many this Summer.

Next though after they have a big drop off in the league I can see Poch leaving followed by a few...

I'll put my neck out now and say if Mourinho, Guardiola or Conte want to sign Deli Alli this summer and money is no object then Spurs fans have seen the last of Deli Alli in a Spurs shirt.

They'll probably keep the majority of the squad for sure. I'm not suggesting the entire team is about to be flogged off.
 
You think I'm hurting <laugh>

You spuds are as deluded as they come.


Well, your first post after the game does rather seem to suggest that, yes!..

But, I'm sure as you're not in the slightest bit obsessed, you'll be celebrating your win rather than mentioning Spurs in every post you make <ok>

Don't see Levy selling to Chelsea but otherwise I agree.

Just don't reckon Alli will push for it this year, next Summer certainly <ok>

But it makes no difference. Do you think players put transfer requests in and then look for a new club or something?

Deli Alli earns probably less than half of what Fabregas earns at Chelsea or Pogba earns here.

Your turn, give me one good reason he'd stay.

And of course had you had won the FA Cup your lot wouldn't be ripping the piss out of Arsenal would you?

He's already started muttering about not knowing where his future lies.

Levy doesn't get players to stay, I don't get why this keeps cropping up, who has wanted to leave Spurs that he has convinced to stay?

Of course it makes a difference.

Dele is a player who's been brought on by MP. He acknowledges that.

We know that he's potentially a world class talent and that we have to keep improving to retain him.

You lot are busy trying to sell off our squad every summer. Maybe Walker will go, if he does it's because MP has decided he's not crucial to us. But if you think Levy is going to suddenly start selling off all our top players to Prem rivals, you're dreaming!....

I agree that it's a bit of a false narrative about Levy, don't remember him selling anyone to Chelsea in particular though?

Missed the reports of Alli questioning future?

That really won't be the sole reason if you're honest will it?

Or you're dreaming of you think otherwise <ok>

Although I never said 'all'.

I don't think Kane will leave.

I think Alli could, and I think he'll choose, not Levy.

Levy will not allow him to go to another Prem club, unless MP agrees it.

Levy accepted lower bids for both Modric and Bale rather then see them go to Chelsea and Utd.

All the 'you never know what the future holds' spin, classic spiel that Ronaldo perfected here every time he was asked about Real Madrid.

We'll see, I hope for this guy's sake they don't lose any as he seems a little bit attached.
 
It'll be the reason of Levy allows him to go to City.

It really won't.

If he goes it's because he knows he'll get more money and better chance of winning trophies at City than at Spurs and he's made it clear he wants the move.

Not because Poch has decided he's not cruicial <laugh>

He's on a long contract, as are nearly all,of our squad. If Levy doesn't want him going to City, he'll sit on a bench instead.

He's contracted to us until 2021!....

So, it really will....

Ah I see, depends if a serious offer comes in or not then.

Doesn't matter. It's a nice idea in theory but in reality a club like yours can't have an asset worth £25m sat around doing **** all not contributing, if it gets to that point then you're better off letting him go.
