Net spend hides big spenders who also sell a lot of expensive players. If Man C spend tonnes and tonnes pre 2018 then they have a very expensive squad form which to generate sales.South Coast Royal wrote:I would think that being captain of your country would be something to look back on with greater pride than winning a few club team medals.Vision wrote:Also worth bearing in mind that as far as Top flight football is concerned most of the Premier League era has had 4 fewer games played so over a 12 year career period thats 48 games fewer in which to get them. For someone with Kane"s record that equates to about 38 goals in total. That's just a rough guess , I've not done the maths so don't shoot me.
Shearer was a funny one. He'd already won a title so I think the lure of wearing Newcastle's iconic No9 and the chance of winning something with his boyhood club outweighed the almost guaranteed trophies that would come with signing for Man Utd. I doubt he regrets the choice too much.
Kane on the other hand may end up never winning anything but being a genuine one club man. I guess it depends what motivates you really. Different players will look at things differently.
BTW on Spurs I was looking just now on some net spend figures in the transfer market from 2018 until and including last week as follows:-
Chelsea £730.24 million
Man Utd £610.8
Arsenal £561.96
Spurs £404.60
Man City £323.61
Liverpool £235.03
Some perspective on a number of things including the preconceived idea that Spurs/Levy don't spend much.
Probably a good thing, last time he tried a manager search it lasted months and they ended up with Nuno. Levy handled the Conte dealSilver Fox wrote:Tottenham's DOF receives worldwide ban from FIFA for shenanigans while at Juventus, somewhat hampering his abilities to recruit a new manager

That's as engaged as I've been in a game as a 'neutral' for a long time. Ended up on my knees in front of the TV at Son's miss. Which was probably a bit dramatic, but yeah, what a result that might have been. He'll bury one like that next week.Franchise FC wrote:Although they did try rather hard to do soSutekh wrote:Even Chelsea couldn't screw up a 2 man advantage for the last half hour or so!Royal Rother wrote:I loved watching Spurs for most of Poch’s reign, now they are back - a superbly entertaining team.
A hairline (pun intended) offside decision and a better Son finish and who knows

BTW "what comes round goes round" is apt for the Spurs left-back who got Curtis Jones booked in the Liverpool game for tripping himself up.South Coast Royal wrote:C4YRoyal Rother wrote:I loved watching Spurs for most of Poch’s reign, now they are back - a superbly entertaining but dirty and reckless team.
I haven't watched a second of PL football for years but I reckon there may be a hint in who you're asking... is it Liverpool?Royal Rother wrote:Which team has had the most red cards so far this season?
