And one more is still more.Come on now, you know that's not fair since Soldado's goals were mostly pens.
Soldado £2,363,636« per goal.*
Dempsey £500,000 per goal.*
*Does not include assists.
«Included penalties.

I fucking hope not.Not true though is it because we haven't paid £26m yet
I fucking hope not.
I'd feel like my beloved spurs were bent over and taken from behind in the same way Newcastle bent Liverpool over after Liverpool themselves bent Chelsea over.
Bottom line is, we both got shafted.That's ridiculous. When we bought Soldado, he was a world class striker with a proven record in one of Europe's top leagues. Buying Andy Carroll off the back of a 9 goal season for £36m is clearly ridiculous, the only thing which was questionable about our purchase really was why AVB didn't play a system to support Soldado's style of play. £16m with add-ons for someone of Soldado's quality is incomparable to buying Andy Carroll for £26m.
I thought Andy Carroll cost Liverpool £35m? Are you detracting add on's you know about that were not triggered? If so where did you get this information from out of interestThat's ridiculous.

Oh my mistake - I read your post as saying £25m which made me wonder where the extra £10m had goneOkay 35 then, thought it was 36 off the top of my head
Let's face it, if Dempsey wasn't American, you wouldn't be saying that.
looked good last night, probably now shaken off the avb effect.
Except for the fact that when Donovan was in the side, he was always the star of the show and Dempsey still netted goals and did well.I've said this so many times on this forum before: Dempsey will always do well for teams like Fulham, Seattle, the USA, because he can run the show. He is the star of those sides. His problem comes when he is just one good player amongst many, and then he goes missing, like with us. He was invisible in most matches. Fortunately, he wasn't a terrible buy or anything because he has a knack for scoring and being in the right place, so he bagged some important goals.
But that's wrong. As someone who has watched Dempsey play for the US, Spurs, Fulham and Seattle, he is a good footballer. Gets important goals, makes good runs, and is always in the box. He is someone we really could afford to still have on our books. We really missed Dempsey last year, almost as much as we missed Bale. It was unfair to him that he was essentially signed as the replacement for Van Der Vaart because it ensured expectations would be absurdly high from the fans and he would never live up to them leading to garnering the amount of hate he got.Let's face it, if Dempsey wasn't American, you wouldn't be saying that.
