Use our rumours form to send us spurs transfer rumours.

this is unrealalistic but this would be a scenario that losing bale isn't all bad

this is what i would hope happened if we lost king bale

spurs should sell bale to real for 50mil plus higuan (prevents arsenal getting him and he's a quality striker) contrao (fits our left beck need) modric (creative spark in midfield) and di maria (good winger who would bea top player for us) with the 50mil to cover wages plus some for transfers

with the extra cash and from other sales spurs should sign paulinho along with another winger for cover to lennon and di maria (preferably bernard who could possibly contest lennon or i'd settle for ince) and another striker (one of soldado, villa, damiao or benteke)

this would test rm to really see just how much they want bale

we should get rid of these players along with bale - adebyor, parker, huddlestone, bae, livermore, gomes, khulumo ( this guys been ghosting) and possibly dempsey and defoe

this would leave us not spending too much extra than recieved but perhaps increase our wages

this would give us a strong match day squad of roughly
4 3 3
lloris
walker kaboul vertonghen contrao
modric sandro paulinho
bernard higuan di maria

subs
freidel
caulker
rose
dembele
lennon
holtby
damiao/soldado/villa/benteke

we should loan out siggs and maybe carroll to bpl clubs

Dembele on the bench are u mad!
i don't think any of them strikers will join us to be on the bench.
and siggs on loan his better then holtby brings assist ang goals he saved us load towards the end of the season

conclusion you know nothing about football

Agree0 Disagree0

SO many things wrong with this post

1. 6 changes to our starting 11 from last season? You actually think tighta**e Levy will sanction 6 BIG transfers? Although according to you, you think Bale is worth £50m plus Coentrao, Modric, Higuain AND Di Maria?! Wake up. Plus, Bale will go nowhere this season now that RM have signed Isco. And Levy WILL NOT sell Bale to another British team. That only leaves PSG as the only real team who could afford him/would want him. And seing as AVB has snubbed them, I am 100% certain Bale will too.

2. Dembele on the bench? Wake up. I bet you our midfield trio next season will be Sandro, Dembele and Paulinho.

3. There is no chance in hell Spurs would have a first 11 with only 1 British player in it. Defoe will stay and players like Carroll and Townsend I reckon will be given more of a chance this coming season.

I think you need to be realistic in the fact that we have Daniel Levy as our Chairman. And even though we have Baldini to sanction and deal with transfers. again, there is no way in hell we will only have 1 British players in our First XI and sign those 6 world class players.

50million plus the 4 players from Real for Bale. Don't need to read any further. 30m plus Higuain and di Maria or Contrao more realistic. Secure Paulinho plus one other of similar quality and we'd be challenging for Top 3. with no injuries maybe higher.

Agree0 Disagree0

The original poster did say this is unrealistic. Jesus, people are so quick to have a go on here.

I know its unrealistic but I think we should sign messi and maybe ronaldo, throw in the spanish national team as well. what is the point in all this!

Agree0 Disagree0

If it is unrealistic then what's the point of posting it?

Get real.

I posted this idea further down, but I reckon a cheeky bid for Wanyama at £8m is pretty good value. He'd be great cover for Sandro, we could get rid of Scotty P (as much as I love him his age started to show last season at times, plus we'd get maybe £3-4m still for him?). Wanyama is 21/22 so would have a resale value, champions league experience (for the season after next -_-), thoughts?

(I know we need a striker before you start. )

Dont see how they will sell for £8M when they accepted £12M and on top the agents wanted another £1M. So is he worth £13M - no

Agree0 Disagree0

Apologies I thought I had read Celtic had accepted a £8m bid. to many rumours to little time

Paulinho says the only offer has come from Tottenham and that he will make a decision on his future after the Confederations Cup this weekend.

"It's not true about Real Madrid, the only offer that has come is from Tottenham, But I have already said that I will only evaluate it after the Confederations Cup. hopefully we get him and maybe villa nxt week

Believable0 Unbelievable0

David luiz has said that 'paulinho is a great player. He can come to England and he is ready'
With the paulinho comment about us being the only club, I'd say its already sealed and paulinho is a y*d.
Happy days. Should allow us to clear a few off the wage bill and get our squad down. I'd say he replaces scotty, Hudds and Livermore.

Considering we have this 'special partnership' with Real Madrid we haven't used it to our benefit at all, I would love to see Levy using his powers of persuasion and try and bring in Higuain and Coentrao with the promise that bale can go to Real next season, that way we keep Bale and if we add Paulinho and Villa we would give ourself the best shot at the title for years. I know it would cost an arm and a leg in wages but if it guarantees champions league football then it would be worth it.
COYS can't wait for the new season

How thick are some of you? You should know by now that Higuain is off to Arsenal and yet you keep going on about swaps involving him and Coentrao, Di Maria eg, and Bale isn't even for sale and the players would have to want to come to us as well which I would doubt. Plus Higuain is average anyway. {Ed008's Note - I feel as if I have to defend him his goal record says it all..

Agree0 Disagree0

There u no guarantee in football.
Gidfirbid, but what happens if bale gets a serious injury?
They may let one or two come on loan for a season then strike a deal next summer.

Agree0 Disagree0

You call some of us thick, then state higuain is average!
I think I know who the thick one is.
He us one if the best strikers playing in Europe.

Eds do you reckon RM will be punished for evidently constantly tapping up Bale even if they don't sign him, or is that just impossible {Ed008's Note - Highly unlikely.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

If you remember anything about the cashley cole to chelsea saga the only evidence that got chelsea into trouble with was the hotel meeting. If it wasnt for that chelsea may not have settled with a huge bid+gallas.

Remember these guys have the best lawyers and are able to freely compliment any player they wish, even if one is mentioned more often than the others, no matter how much we want to shove a ball gag in their mouths

Has anyone every officially been punished?

Ok, probably going to be suffering rumours and wondering until Aug 31st about Bale so, like another poster, I've started to think what would be worth taking.
For us fans it has to be players and cash or we're screwed because only a small percentage of a big fee would go back into the team.
Modric (£20m, value has dropped due to bad PR and not a full season), Di Maria (£15m ish), Higuain (£22m is alleged Goon price) and £35m cash.
If he had to go I'd take that I guess, if he had to.
Alternatively, if we got rid of some fringe/average players for up to £20m and we could get Villa, Negredo or Soldado and Paulinho or Bernard then we'd be right in the mix with Bale still here - that's what we need to do for once!

I hope we will do what we need to do, in support of AVB and Baldini and the fans. but until I see it.

Agree0 Disagree0

So 57 mill worth of players and 35 mill cash?

madrid want bale badly yes. but they are not stupid. and it also depends on the players willing to move.

if the players are not interested. do you want unhappy players?

there is a reason why player+ cash deals never happen.

Agree0 Disagree0

It was only 'banter' talk about if he had to go. I agree that player plus cash deals never work (hardly happen) but, just joining the bandwagon as these sorts of things will churn until he signs a new deal or 24:00 on August 31st!
I want Bale to stay plus Paulinho, Negredo and Soldado. I think we'll get two or three signings but, highly likely to not
be those we want and need.
