I won't say those things I like De Gea and Pogba.I won’t win this.
I point out we have De Gea. You’ll say he nearly joined Madrid like 5 years ago.
I point out we have Paul Pogba. You’ll say he wants to leave.
England’s best CB joins us, you’ll just say it’s cause Man City dropped out.
We do, but on pitch performances need to reflect it
It is, and Levy will sell .. there's no way he's passing up even 50 million or so when he'll get nothing next summer. A deal can definitely be done between the clubs.I don't think we would recoil at £70m for Eriksen. It's in Levy's best interest to sell him ASAP.
He'd be mad to let our window close without signing a replacement and then being held by the balls to sell him well below his asking price. He's between a rock and a hard place. The only light is that if he does sell him to us, he gets the chance to reinvest that money this window.It's still £130m for United imo. Levy would be mad to sell to us, especially when we could take their CL spot.
It is. To reiterate I'm not saying this will definitely happen, but I can't see how it's been written off.It is, and Levy will sell .. there's no way he's passing up even 50 million or so when he'll get nothing next summer. A deal can definitely be done between the clubs.
But, to go back to the start of all this .. then it's all up to Eriksen, and the ball is totally in his court.
This deal makes sense on every level. I'd be disappointed to say the least if we don't even attempt to get it done.It is. To reiterate I'm not saying this will definitely happen, but I can't see how it's been written off.
Don't bring that up againLevy vs Woodward.
Eriksen is a much better player than Mata and Lingard but isn't he close to reaching a point where he won't get any better. Also what sort of wages and contract will he be after. He is effectively taking a step backwards leaving a stable Spurs side to play Europa League with Man Utd. Spurs selling to Utd makes no sense either. surely they'd rather sell on the cheap abroad than a direct rival. Is Eriksen a Lukaku replacement if it is that doesn't necessarily solve anything. We still don't have a striker capable of scoring more than 15+.
With Utd's track record recently when buying from rivals re: Sanchez and Matic. I am just concerned that might be another one of those. Eriksen leaving Spurs and CL to play Europa League. Why?
That doesn’t matter though? He’s one of the best players in the PL and if he can stay at that level for 4+ years then it’s a great deal.Levy vs Woodward.

Spurs fans tell me Eriksen hasn't beaten the first man in a corner in years. - Would fit right in at Utd.
Bringing Lingard into the deal would taking value away from the deal - we might go for it if you gave us £80 million plus Lingard vs £50 million cash.I think we should play hardball and not go through with the deal until, in addition to the purported £50m Levy takes Lingard as well from our hands. I'm sure that idea will seem very attractive to a bean counter like Levy.
Done!Bringing Lingard into the deal would taking value away from the deal - we might go for it if you gave us £80 million plus Lingard vs £50 million cash.
As long as it's particularly smelly and fancy cheese then it's a deal.Done!
We'll throw in a block of cheese as a sweeter. We're nice like that.
We should offer them £50m cash.I think we should play hardball and not go through with the deal until, in addition to the purported £50m Levy takes Lingard as well from our hands. I'm sure that idea will seem very attractive to a bean counter like Levy.
Would make sense if they're willing to sell to United for 50 Mill.talkSHITE saying Spurs want Coutiniho on loan.
cheeky bid for Steve SmithIf we get Eriksen before the window shuts thats it. We're winning the Ashes.
Sure thing.As long as it's particularly smelly and fancy cheese then it's a deal.
Is it sad or funny that I would take the last one?We should offer them £50m cash.
Or £55m + Darmian
Or £60m + Darmian + Rojo
Or £65m + Darmian + Rojo + Sanchez.
Not gonna happen, nor would I want it to happen.Tweet

Walker was dropped to the bench because he wanted to move. He was always better than Trippier and whilst not a 'prized' asset I'd still say he was an important one.When was the last time Spurs sold a prized asset to a Prem rival? Berbatov and Robbie Keane? Kyle Walker had dropped to a bench role when he was sold. He'd much rather sell to Real from 35mil than to us for 80mil.
Ffs. People moan when we don't buy the top class players. Then when we attempt to, they're all Argentinian snakes!Another Di Maria on our hands here...
Usually yes. But there's the very real chance he gets nothing for him in a season. He needs to sell before buying and wants to bring a replacement in this window. That's why this is being discussed seriously. Levy is between a rock and a hard place.When was the last time Spurs sold a prized asset to a Prem rival? Berbatov and Robbie Keane? Kyle Walker had dropped to a bench role when he was sold. He'd much rather sell to Real from 35mil than to us for 80mil.
Seen this said a few times, there's 4 CL spots and if Spurs sell Eriksen but replace him adequately then they'll still have enough to finish ahead of Chelsea and Arsenal. Maybe actually that's their ploy? Help ensure our qualification to stick it to their London rivals? Thanks Daniel never knew you caredI’d be amazed if this happened. Can’t see Levy selling to us, they’re effectively giving up their CL spot.
It depends entirely on which other clubs are interested. I agree - if Real, Barca or PSG come calling - we are likely to lose out. But there is no way Levy will allow Eriksen to run out his contract and and lose £60 million in the process. There simply is too much Money involvedBeen hearing about this from people in work. There's no way Levy will sell us Eriksen.
The rumour was probably started in order to boost Eriksen's value abroad, and also boost his wage demand. It happens all the time with us.
No wayTotal downgrade for Spurs that.
Everything they have done for him ? He has been arguably their best or 2nd, 3rd best players for the last 4-5 years. And what has he got to show for it ? What trophies ?One more thing, would Eriksen really stitch up Spurs after everything they have done for him?
