Sissoko goal was played through by Lemar. Great through ball. No clue who the middle man was like. Sissoko is a different player for France and the French fans appear to love him...
Sell, Daniel, sell. For the love of God, there won't be a better time

I still don't understand his transfer deal with Spurs from Newcastle...£30m but in instalments and his new club will foot the bill etc etc....anybody know just how it works ? Mike Ashley must be laughing his socks off !

It's 6m per year I think, irrespective if we sell him or not. It adds to the total of 30m (5 years)

It's just £6m per year for 5 years. Any new transfers involving him leaving have no bearing on it - we pay the same amount over the same time (presumably Ashley would let us pay it early if we wanted to). If we sell him we'll need the money to keep paying his original fee.

No doubt 30m included a load of unrealistic add ons that have not been met though too. Stuff like Sissoko winning the balloon d'or, spurs winning the Super Bowl

20-22m plus add-ons to total 30m would be my guesstimate

No that's the weird thing that's come out of this deal from all the various sources who are willing to say anything - it's not the usual Levy deal of 3 multipacks of Walkers and 500 Nectar points up front and £30m if Spurs win the Intergalactic Cup - it's literally just £6m a season for 5 years.

It's one of the (many) reasons why so many journo's who have the inside track were surprised by it. Ashley literally put this take it or leave it offer on the table and Levy wanted to support Poch so paid what they wanted, how they wanted it.

I love how we're still seeing posts that we won't have to pay the whole 30 million as we're selling him already. Makes my brain hurt.

Starting for France tonight.

How bad a manager must deschamps be!

Shop window hopefully!
He almost always plays well for him so I guess Deschamps is a pretty good manager to be fair.

Lets not forget we bought him off of the back of Sissoko putting in a very good Euros tournament for Deschamps. There's plenty of precedence here to go off of Deschamps playing him and him playing well.

I just think, you can't argue with the stats...

In 52 appearances, Sissoko managed 0 goals, an incredible 2 assists, but more importantly, he accrued 3 yellow cards, took 0.7 shots per game and he won 0.5 aerial duels per game... outstanding!

Marseille will be lucky to have him for a measly £22 million pounds...
