Ah, in that sense yes. I agree.
I was more pointing to the fact that in quality-wise there is a difference. Say it's different either you buy Mbappe or Clarke
I absolutely think that we should go mainly for youngsters but spice it up with experienced veteran here or there. Say like Juventus when they brought in Matuidi from PSG. Or Liverpool when they took on Milner. But this should not be main way to conduct business.
Quite. But levy will be on the phone to Piateks agent. If the player wants us we are still in the driving seat.
Naive to think this deal started on Sunday, it's a 25 million pound deal for heavens sake it would have been in the works for months

Just because it would wind up the goons and chavs I want giroud
Fair enough I won't argue that point. My post was more in response to a post from TheSpurEst regarding the stadium bringing in more income and vs. outlay and so forth. More than a few people have been banding it about as reasoning one way or another.
Spurs are bringing in a ton more revenue compared to a few years ago (Willl from CartilageFreeCaptain and SwissRamble are my usual go-tos), and even with the stadium debt, the principle and interest on the notes will likely be covered by additional sponsorship opportunities, primarily the stadium naming rights.
In short, we have a lot of cash on hand because the stadium was financed with debt, we are making significantly more money on an annual basis despite these debt obligations, so we have a great deal more to spend on transfers, wages and additional staff (DoF!?!)
In my view, we began offering more significant contracts to players in 2018 and started spending significantly more in the transfer market in 2019. This lines up with the increase in revenue and the stadium completion, respectively.
Spurs are now a financial power in Europe and globally in football. Not on the level of the Spanish giants, the Manchester clubs or PSG - but Chelsea? Woolwich? Juventus? Bayern? Assuredly. And in my view, the club is starting to act like it based on the last 6 months.
I feel this angle is not getting enough play around here to be fair.
Is that a real thing?
Apparently so.
To be fair, the club has good liquidity at the moment which gives them the flexibility needed in order to...I seem to have stumbled upon a forum for people playing Football Accountant 2020 online.
If anyone mentions carryovers, impairment of liquid assets or non-current trade receivables I may go full Chuck Norris

They’ve had the donation box out the last few days. It’s embarrassing. Absolute spods lining up to hand over their cash.
Igi Jedi - is not ITK per se, he's a fella that works in the media/it department of spurs - or their IT subcontractor - who is also a spurs fan who posts on SC. He never got any ITK about deals etc, he just used to know about media announcements just before they went public. So he'd tip of SC about 5-10 minutes before the club sent out an announcement of a signing.
I think you will find Hercules is in a class of his own - Tier 5.
I’m really not sure I could stomach Giroud
