If I was Spurs, I'd sell for £85m. Then buy Leandro Damiao for £20mil and go for Ericksen for £16mil. That gives them a proper CF and a creative midfielder to fill the void. Still gives them money spare to get a CB which I think they need.
What about the extra wages? The players you mentioned will want £100k per week. Thats £5.2m per season or £26m over five years. Bale going would save enough to cover one of them but can they offered two more?
AVB is now moaing that Madrid made public their interest in Bale and that they are talking to Spurs. "Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas said Tuesday Spurs are in talks to sign Valencia and Spain striker Roberto Soldad"
"Normally, situations like this in England are scrutinised by the Football Association with lots of care and attention. We have seen lots of people speaking about a player that is not theirs and we are due some..." Good advice AVB! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23566119
