The fact that we are selling first team players to rivals is not good. Not at all. What kind of signals are we sending here??
Walker was/is a good player. But it seems he he going for the money. To be honest, now that hes gone, I hope he bottles it and wins nothing with that piece of shit club.
I hope that this was a calculated sale by Poch and Levy. If I see one more first team player leave this window I will have a total melt down...FFS.

Well we're not though are we? Your use of the plural "we're selling players to rivals" implies that it's now a free for all and any rival club can come along and just pick and choose who they want.

But that isn't true is it? We've sold one player who Poch didn't want any more and we won't be selling anyone else. And that's that.

Can't help but feel Levy was the catalyst for these silly prices with the Bale sale (although Ronaldo was £80m before him) - opened the door for the rest and coupled with the new tv deal, everyone is jacking up their prices...

Levy is trying to ramp up the price of a home grown player, whilst simultaneously trying to find value at the other end of the market. He's a crazy fool/genius.

Sickening that a small club, who basically won the lottery, can just come and take one of our players.
Honoured to play for Man City?
Is Walker serious?
All he's honoured about is the extra money going into his bank account each month.
Now he's gone couldn't give a fuck about Kyle Walker.
A totally depressing transfer window so far.
All quiet at Tottenham whilst rivals strengthen.

Get a grip! This is clearly not a simple case of selling players to our rivals or sending the wrong message. The manager didn't want him to stay so, instead of having him stinking up the place with his negativity (and likely sending genuinely bad signals to the rest of the squad) we've sold him to a club willing to pay a world record fee for him.

Walker is a good player prone to the odd clanger. Are City strengthened? A little yes but it's not like we've sold them Kane or Alli. He's a right back who gets caught out of position and uses his pace to compensate, and isn't anywhere near as good going forward as the one we're left with.

It's really frustrating that, despite two years of success, where we genuinely came close to winning the title twice, there is still a section of our fans whose default position is negativity. Do you trust the manager? Because you bloody well should do. I think he's proven he knows what he's doing, and he knows a hell of a lot more than any of us about whether we can afford to sell Kyle Walker to Man City.

You are right, I'm payed by Levy to go on here and post that Walker is dogshite. Every time I use "dogshite" I receive 1 penny now and 1/10 of a penny over the next 50 years. Every time I write "Trippier will become better anyway", I earn a performance bonus of 1 penny per rating (good, bad or otherwise), paid out in equal instalments over 1000 years.

Trippier will become better anyway, Walker is dogshite, so dogshite.

Don't be silly!

I don't like this transfer bec we are selling to a title rival. I hope Poch gets his targets now. Period.. Levy should back his transfer now.

You think he is overpaying me? :nailbiting:

Funny!

It's interesting (but sad) to see all these negative comments on Walker flowing like a flood on here. I'd say that the Spurs PR department has done a super job of preparing the way for this move. Well done.

At the end of this window maybe they'll all get a bonus as well as their regular salary.

There is no discussion about that.

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but we weren't close to winning the title in either of the last two seasons. at best we were closest "challengers", but to say we came close is pushing it.
