    Breaking our transfer record for the third time, potentially. Does anyone else think that a Spurs fan has found the door to Levy's mind like in Being John Malkovich?

    It's begining to look like: Gareth who?

    Given the choice of the squad that we're building without Bale and the squad we had last season with Bale then I'd go for this season.

    Yeah, me too, assuming 1 of Willian/Lamela (or both)

    I hope we have a buyback option on Bale for when it doesn't work out over there for him, for maybe £20m?

    Is Willian really worth 30 million? that's more then RVP, Tevez, and these Russian clubs pay way over the odds for players.

    potentially we're spending 38 million on two wingers in chadi and Willian who both could be crap in our league.

    Anyway not excited by this Willian chap but hopefully Baldini and Avb know what they are doing.

    Levy has always dreamed of having a Bale on his books.
    This summer we see the possible reality of it :

    a top 4/5 PL squad + a lorry load to spend + a DoF who
    will identify class players in as replacements.

    I don't know.
    But the wage slut aspect (Shaktar to Anzhi) and the fact he is not a Brasil
    mainstay (for 30m quid) concerns me.

    mate in all honesty I reckon whoever buys this guy is being robbed and some of these deals we're going to regret.

    is he worth £30m? no, is he worth £30m in this summer's transfer market? yes.

    There will be a high number of flops this year, the market has gone crazy and some clubs will be stuck with duds.

    lol

    I said this before, if townsend was in the Dutch league we would pay 8 million for him.

    and Carroll will be a huge mistake to not give a chance.

    Willian on the bbc now, which usually means there is something in it

    Liverpool fan here, if you;
    Sell Bale for £80m + Coentrao

    Buy Lamela/Willian (or both <yikes>)

    I'm tipping you for beyond 4th, I honestly think third is well within your reach, maybe even 2nd if both Manchester clubs can't keep up consistency.

    Well done Spurs, getting rid of Harry and bringing in AVB and Franco Baldini is the best thing that could have happened to you lot, Bale's wonders aren't worth £80m but my have you spent that well!

    Why would I judge a player on one match agaisnt a club he has a porint to prove?

    Thats like saying "did you watch Adenayor last year agaisnt Chelsea & Arsenal"....Yes he looked great, yet crap for the rest of the season.

    Paying 30 million for a player like Willian imo just shows how crazy the transfer market has become.

    Fair play to you lads. You've had an amazing Summer, even if Bale ****s off you have a title challenging side.. Tempted to put a cheeky score on you to be champions. Gutted we lost out on Willian <grr>. How solid are the Lamela rumours?
