We've been left short before so I understand the worry you, I and alot of us have. But you have to give it until the end of the window.

You know absolutely nothing about me.as a man nearing 40 ive seen the grim teams and managers of the 90s so am in a good position to know currently we have our best team and certainly manager ive seen and possibly will ever see. The game is currently awash with cash and for me if the best manager we have had in 30 years is telling you that the only fit right back isnt ready to start a premiership game then i do believe we are missing an opportunity.i aint craving signings for signings sake im craving we back our manager as i think he is mustard and worry like some of the earlier ITK have said he is getting increasingly frustrated.if we lost him over penny pinching after what he has done to this club would be sheer madness. May never have a better chance.

It was probably unfair to @paulcumpston to single him out, I should have made a separate comment rather than 'reply' to his. It gets tedious, the sheer panic and bed wetting that goes on when we still have a month(ish) to go.

I'm not quite sure what you're asking...if there is a clause that says the owning team must release the player from his contract if an offer that meets x conditions is met, then yes, that player is released upon meeting those conditions. If it was possible to activate a 100 million release clause by paying 80 million...what would the point be or setting it at 100m? The clause will have specific language about what conditions must be met for the release to be activated.
Apart from walker we still have the same team that got us 2nd last year. I can understand the disappointment in not having a new player or 2 by now, but its not all doom and gloom. Key injuries have not helped matters though.
Levy is one smart cookie, I dont blame him for holding off while all other clubs are spending way over the values of players. Just got to have faith in the bald guy and poch.

And the same squad that performed disgracefully in the CL, a competition that for a decade has worked as a guiding star for the club's ambitions. Just saying, every version of reality as portrayed in this thread is founded on a rational truth.
The same info also stated that Barkley was done for 20m

I think it's the margins these days that gets fans worried. It wouldn't take much to lose a few extra games miss out on CL or trophies for more years due to inaction.
We are so close to being a top club again and most spurs fans have never seen us at the top. Levy is a master at selling but fairly shite at buying, its like he thinks hes smarter than everyone else and these Alli gambles or kane revelations will keep happening, but in all likelihood they won't.
You are right about the whining on here but there is some justification we are literally a world class signing away imo from a league win so spunking 30m last minute on sissoko or grabbing njie in hope seems like false economy to a lot us.
Overall though for me I supported spurs since '73 and this is the best we've ever been yes we haven't won the fa cup but we are a team to reckon with these days which is good enough. .... end of ramble.

I meant do you have to pay it in one hit? (eg PSG and Neymar)

Off Topic: As I understand having to pay it in one go is rare and Barca did that because they were mad. Normally you notify a team you will pay it and then work out a transfer payment plan for that same amount over time. Depending on the amount, etc.
On Topic: With the news that Trippier may be out for weeks from the Telegraph and Daily Mail I really hope Alli Z is on the money with his ITK for a RB. Probably too early for Newcastle (where we might be boned if Wanyama is also out - Dier can't cover both) but maybe in time for after the international break. Especially of they stay and focus on fitness.

Doubt it, nobody, even city, keep £50 mill in cash. PSG only got it together because the buyout clause requires all cash, up front

And other ITK has said he has no problem with Levy and how we are going about our business. We don't know what is going on for sure.
What I do know is that this non ITK talk is not allowed in here so can we stop the rants guys, and just wait for some new ITK.

I've tried to be patient all Summer but it's getting a bit frustrating. If we drop points in the first few games because we don't make any signings until deadline day and this costs us CL football then what's the point? The money saved leaving it late certainly won't cover the cost of not making top 4. We all know it's probably going to be a lot harder to get top 4 this season, it's pretty feasible there will be only a few points in it.
Going into the new season we have 1 fit full back. That's unacceptable if you're Huddersfield never mind a team trying to challenge for the title. I'll never stop loving Spurs but if we ever lose Poch because of stuff like this I would lose a lot of faith in the club.
