Wesley Sneijder

[Mostar]

Tottenham, another club doing the things we should be doing.

We're doing very similar things to Spurs but they're a few years ahead if us in terms of squad development and whilst Sneijder is a good player I am not sure he's what we need.

You may be right but the fact that they are pursuing good quality players and are succeeding in attracting them is a big concern.

what spurs have over us too is the fact they are a london club,its big pull for a lot of overseas players.

London is definitely bonus but if they are able to attract and sign big players on huge wages tables are sadly turning in their favor.

Too much stock is put in what the papers say.

On the subject of papers, I've just noticed an article in today's Telegraph which reckons Spurs average first team wage is 44k p/w and that Adebayor is top earner on 80k.

Probably not entirely accurate, but if it's even half right it'll be interesting to know how they're going to fit Sneijder into that structure.

i'd guess off shore accounts

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Really worrying coz their wage structure was significantly lower than ours.

Signing a player like Sneijder can influence how other top players see Spurs going forward.

It's a risky game they're playing though if they get Sneijder in. He'll surely be on 150k+ a week, he's already supposed to be on £200k at Inter.

If they want to keep Bale, he'll want massive wages too added to that Adebayor's. Loosening the strings definitely.

London as a 'pulling factor's is way behind a) money and b) European football

Spurs can offer 2 out of 3 which we all know ain't bad.

Looks very likely to be going to Galatasary

[Fivex]

Wow, if that's true.

If that is true it won't be even close for the money he is currently getting with Inter.

Gala will still give him access to CL but to play in Turkish Super League seems very premature for his age.
