£10m for a young british player in a market which over-inflates the price of those type of players......don't think so. Probably double that.

Berahino would be a decent buy...Im convinced Harry Kane has the abilities to be our main man 20 + goals a season and can also play 10 or 9 intelligent footballer. I would of loved Benteke or Bony but now I want Kane... sell Soldado keep Adebayor as cover to Kane

Kane
Berahino
Adebayor.

£10m sounds about what DL will offer, cant see him adding another 5 or £10m for a young english PL player, possibly tempt them with another £2m on the last day, hour of the TW :whistle::D(n)

10m? if they're going to make stuff up, they could at least make it believable.

To be fair the article says a bid of more than £10 mill and I guess you can construe that any way you want. In some ways it actually makes the rumour more believable insofar as the article suggests we are going to make a bid but has no real feel for what we might offer
I doubt Levy would want anyone to know what he might bid for a player, whereas it is possible that people hear of a bid through an agent or the other club

Missed a hatful against City. Good movement though. Dunno is he that good? They're going to want £20m for him and he seems massively unproven for that kind of fee. I remember Francis Jeffers was pretty shit hot for England U21s too.

There were two difficult chances from tight angles if I remember, may have been better squaring than the shot. Don't remember any others, which ones should he have taken?

A 3rd choice striker with mental issues on 100 k a week? Can't see it myself. Don't want that anyway.

Is 10+ million so unrealistic? Fuck me what's the kid done to deserve a bid more than that lol crazy world we are in.

One was pretty much a sitter I thought but I've not seen anything of him that doesn't make me think he's a huge risk for the inevitable English mark up. I know he's young but his record in various leagues really isn't that great. It's his England U21 and lower record propping him up

they were two difficult chances and if he had done those in a spurs shirt kane would have been at the far post to tap them in :)

Good player really like him. They will want nearer 20 than 10 so I doubt he's coming. Could we get Benteke for 12 to 15? Villa might want cash, DL might pay that. Bony too, likely to be expensive.
