Spurs will pay the money for a top striker, which Villa is.
Whatever Villa does end up on it'll be less than Bale, and he'd probably be the second 'best' player in the squad on status alone. So I don't think it's that implausible.

Stop counting Zaha as a summer signing.
I dunno, Arnie.
I think you're forgetting the scrooge that is Levy. He may reluctantly pay Bale to keep him at the club, but I can't see him shelling out on Villa.
Sterling made 24 appearances last season, whilst Suso made 14, so there's not a huge difference in how much they featured.
We'll either loan Suso out for consistent first team action, or keep him and continue his progress. If we're selling Shelvey then I'm hopeful Rodgers wants to use him in the position he plays for Spain, which is central.
Rodgers really rates him, though, so he'll only play more and more.
Maybe you're right, but I've seen Spurs heavily linked to Villa, and that's with his wage demands being fairly transparent.
I think they'll pay him around £100k a week, he's a bigger player than the rest of the squad and that's still well below what Bale will be on.
okay, players joining up with United, that could play first team during the summer.
No idea he played 14 times last season. I Like that Rodgers gives youth a chance. Wasn't Shelvey wanted by West Ham?
Maybe one day we'll see Januzaj vs Suso.
Someone should tell England the whole World Cup is a friendly. I just did Owl face's job. The fucking cunt.England are the masters of friendlies.
Bottle it in the major tournaments
Played in some big matches, Everton, United, Chelsea. Rodgers trusts the kids, as long as they're good enough. Suso, Sterling, Wisdom, and during the final game Ibe all played for the first team. None made any glaring errors, or looked our of their depth. Really positive.
From what I've seen of Januzaj I still think he's a way off, and I don't really know how much Moyes cares for youth players. Rodgers was obviously a youth coach at Chelsea so he knows the demands of youth team football and how to get the best out of the players. Moyes did quite well with Rodwell, Rooney, and Barkley, so there's some hope there.
But still, Januzaj, not seen him do anything special yet.

I hope you're right.
Actually, a top class striker feels like the missing piece of the puzzle for Spurs, so in a way I kind of don't.
You have never felt the urge to scratch your nads?

Pretty sure it was Suso who passed Valencia the ball at Anfield.
Good lad.
Good lad.
I'm not gay but it moved, and that's ok.
Too beautiful for this world.
feels good man
Learning curve, innit.
Better to polish the flaws now than wait until you're 24, when you're replaced by some Elephant man part Spanish/Brazilian/Italian import.
Are you a woman? Nuts get itchy when playing, you gotta scratch those hairy bastards
and then smell your finger
It feels so good.
Too beautiful for this world.
Its like he is burdened with the task of playing with mere mortals. Sexy beast.

Tom's a pops now football is just something he does in his spare time.
Yeah, the utter contempt on his face - like he couldn't be partaking in a more trivial activity. I think Xavi had a similar reaction after his penalty.

Just you wait until he and Thiago start playing tiki-taka.
Danny Taylor, not exactly got a good record but I'm feeding off scraps here, reckons Thiago won't be completed until the end of next week. This is getting long. Woodward better not fuck this up. Pep and Ancelotti be circling. Moyes better suit up.
Tancredi saying Sky Italy reckon Baldini and Spurs are hijacking Micky.
:lol
Not even mad, more amused. High on Suso junkfood anyway, and I saw a baller Henderson video before.
A Russian football expert, when talking about the Anzhi bid, said Micky wants to join Liverpool.
Who the fuck knows anymore. Who the fuck cares anymore.

I suppose players like Pirlo and Xavi detest shootouts. They seem like the type of players who would like it decided from open play.

Loooooooool.
The Sun (I know) think Chelsea are bidding for John Ruddy. Back-up for Cech I would assume. Surely he wouldn't even contemplate it.
Can you imagine if the winner was decided by an accuracy shootout between Xavi and Pirlo.
Would be like Goku versus Superman.

Browsing cardiffs forums has been interesting, it's like a even more demented afer dark.

I've seen this rumour being touted a while, seems to have come to a bit of a climax tonight...
I don't know who I prefer. Both would walk in to this team. I think Belhanda is the more certain to adapt and fit in the quickest but he'll likely be twice the price of Kiyotake...
Kiyotake is a creator. Belhanda is more of a finisher.
I nearly shit a brick when Xavi hit the post right at the end

We bid £5m and they told us to double it, that would be more than we paid for both Cech and Courtois individually!
Suicide watch
Only because they are better at it than everybody else. :<
I'm not worried about Spurs, more worried about Dortmund.
We've got more financial clout than Spurs, and we're a bigger club. Micky talked about wanting to move to a 'big' club in terms of reputation, so the people in Armenia can see him and understand that they can realise their dreams. He wants to be a symbol for Armenians to show that they can achieve big things.
That's not Spurs. Does describe Dortmund, Champions League finalists, and previous Champions League winners.

Watched the first ep of Homeland tonight; it's on Canadian Netflix.
Interesting stuff, want to see more before I can form a real opinion.

Good show, not a great one.
Yep, Agree totally. Arnold here has good taste, so you know you can trust him.
Watch Hannibal instead. You won't regret it.
I don't mind Micky going to Dortmund too much, but Spurs....
don't want to see him in the premi unless with us.
I don't know what's better - finding out this news before going to sleep or waking up to it.
Hopefully it's just Tancredi bollocks.

Season 1 is godly.
Season 2 is pure shit, ruined the show for me.
Yes, totally. Hannibal is a great show, the best for me so far this year.
