VillaChris Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Kane's scored loads against Arsenal hasn't he? Wembley factor will probably hurt them this time. 53/57 points at WHL was outstanding, plenty of teams have won the league with significantly fewer points at home. Got an undercooked Chelsea first up. Winning that would be a massive boost to them but then I remember they bottled the cup semi final when Chelsea left Costa and Hazard on the bench. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I hope the Wembley move costs them greatly. If they flop this year how will they be able to hold onto the likes of alli and kane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Dont really understand why people want Spurs to flop and lose their best players. Its not 2009 they are not our rivals anymore. The more likeable of the scummy top teams 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I don't want them to win the league because it'll reinforce the nothing's broken how **** awesome is the premier league mentality in the same way that Leicester did not bothered by them doing well though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 having a bit of a wobble in the build up to the season starting, seems like rose might not have started it he might just be the first one to speak out, a few of their players feel undervalued (underpaid...) and could earn up to double what they're currently paid if they moved sideways to another top 4 challenger add to that the fans grumbling over not signing anyone and the arsenal fans constant reminders that the stadium will curtail their finances for the next couple of years not ideal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 It's going to be a bad season for them. Doubt they will perform as well at Wembley and Rose (despite being an average player himself) is absolutely right, they have a ridiculous lack of depth. Only a matter of time before their 'top' players jump ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eriksen was on 30k just a year ago. Kane only just hit 100k after 2 contact renewals. If Dele Alli for example moves to City, he could have his salary tripled.

Popular Post Rodders Posted August 11, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) only 30k a week, blimey. tough break for a footballer. yes I know it's all **** relative, but I really hated Rose and his public saying they were all "worth more". You're footballers, not essential contributors, but entertainers. You're already set up for life, just **** off moaning like that.

villa4europe Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 rose showing a lack of understanding of the general publics perception of footballers (and rich people in general) he's looking for sympathy, he wont find it still got a way to go before he tops ashley cole's "how could they do this to me" comment in his book but purely in the context of the market he works in...he doesnt sound wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, in our societies, status and standing in your profession is largely dictated by money, so on that basis it'd be of no surprise to see some of these players being unhappy. Erickson would rightly argue that he's among the best in his position in the league, but he's paid as much as a very 'average' premier league player, and sees the likes of Jesse Lingaard on more than triple his pay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think there are a lot of people at Spurs who could earn better money elsewhere. I imagine they stick around because they had belief in what the club were doing, and wanted to win some silverware for them...but Spurs not even looking like going out and spending is just mugging them all off. Rose has every right to be pissed off...but that interview is only going to hurt him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Danny Rose, on £65k a week, feels undervalued. That's Danny Rose. £65k a week Undervalued. When the time comes and someone asks you "When did you begin to wish the Premier League and everything associated with it would collapse?" this may be one of the key reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alderwield arguably best centre half in the league and he's "only" on 50k apparently. To compare if Van Dijk gets his move, Liverpool will probably give him 150k deal.
