    Eriksen is a £90m+ player in today’s money and Spurs will be lucky to get half that considering Real could sign him for nowt on the 1st January on a pre-contract.

    He'll get a kick-back so buy or sell it's all gravy for Danny Boy.

    They are honestly like us from a decade ago. New Stadium, massive debt, quality players on short contracts. They'll cash in on what they can and try to buy cheap and promote youth.

    Even cheap players are no longer that cheap. I can see Spurs going after the likes of Sessegnon, Bamba, Ward-Prowse etc once their clubs get relegated and even they’d be upwards of £25m each.

    They stalled on Grealish at £25m so I don't think they'd even really have that much joy getting players in that price bracket.

    If the unthinkable happens and either Arsenal, Utd or both overhaul them in the league this season and they miss out of CL football next year, then that transfer pot is even smaller.

    Looks like Valencia's time at United is up. They could have him for about £30m. I was going to say £25m plus add-ons but it's obvious we'd lose out there.

    We could probably do them a deal for Elneny.

    It's a fair point though, if you were selling to Spurs you'd never do it on the basis of add-ons <whistle>

    On a serious note, I’d be more than happy to let them have Phil Jones and Marcos Rojo in return for Alderweireld.

    It’s win-win for both sides then.

    Tbf, they have the right manager for that approach; Pochettino’s teams depend on commitment and buy-in from players, and the work rate he demands means youth is mostly preferable to buying Big Time Charlies with egos to match their transfer fees.

    If Poch goes, that’s when the wheels fall off imo. He’s the reason for their recent success (he got a bit lucky with Harry Kane perhaps. But then Kane got lucky with Poch).
