what the feck we doing wrong?

[growler]

Have a look around.

 

Chelski, despite swimming in it, sell Huth, HUTH for 5mil, and gujohnson for 8mil.

scum look to sell the horse for 12mil +

a*** sold overmars and petit for 30 mil

 

none of those players were wanted at the club, but still went for big money. Yet we continually find it difficult to sell players. I understand the dross like Diao etc, but come on. 5mil for Huth!!

[Rimbeux]

you can't sell rubbish

 

More relevent than these though, is thecash Spurs got for the likes of Mendes and Davis

[Guest Cally77]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! Mass panic!!! We're doomed!!! Why can't we sell players like Chelsea and Real Madrid!!!!

[RafaShanks]

Can I agree and disagree at the same time?

Mendes pretty much kept them up, I am sure they'd regard the £7.5M that they spent for 3 Spurs reserves as money well spent.

 

Also, if reports were to be believed we were getting £8M for Cisse, which more than he's worth in my opinion.

In retrospect yes, money well spent, but they were stinking out the reserves at a mid table club, and they bring that amount of cash into the football club, whilst ours go on loan, sometimes season after season. I suspect it's wages, ie they're on too much to shift easily, but that doesn't mean there isn't an issue.

 

As for Cisse, in the market, that's what you should expect to pay for him, a player who scores at his rate, it's a fair value imo, less and you've got a good deal, more and you're over-paying.

Huth is what, 21? ...and plays for Germany already... £5M sounds reasonable to me.

 

 

Have you seen him play ? He is in the national team because he was in chelsea.

[Maldini]

I think Huth is awful FWIW but hwas hyped up at Chelsea so in their eyes he's worth about £5m

How many years ago was that? The transfer market has changed in the last 3-4 years.

Russian money.

Apparently Bascombe had a bit in the Saturday Echo a few weeks back saying people in football were starting to suspect a bit of dodginess going on between Spurs, Portsmouth and Chelsea.

 

The three do seem fairly cosy, don't know if there's more to it than mutual interests though.

So how did he get picked by Mourinho in the first place then, 'cos of course Mourinho's got a reputation for buying shiit players ain't he, what with all the financial restrictions he works under....

 

 

Mourinho rarely picked him, didn't buy him, and his signings haven't been the best generally.

 

Obviously the two they've bought this summer are pretty damn good, but are more likely to be the work of the shady Russian
