how sound good are spurs financially?

because if he accepts them it would mean he was offered a good salary. but would we be able to compete? i think max Juve can offer is 5 mill yearly, and that's pushing it so spurs would have to offer a significant increase over that.
Owned by a billionaire called Joe Lewis, which they have been for years, although they generally don't spend much that isn't generated. They could fire €25m out on a player, put it that way.

anyone else thinks that Llorente is not Marotta's main target?
Yes. Has anybody considered that Marrotta could well be using this ploy to feed Llorente to other clubs by focusing on him with an approach that's almost certin to be rejected, while his real focus could very well be on Dzeko. I still think Edin is Marrotta's no.1 preference and once City move on the market, maybe even for Llorente, Marrotta will have an opening to Dzeko, most likely trying to close a loan deal coz them City will have to take him off their books.

In the end when all deals fail and Pazzini arrives we will all know that all that was what Conte wanted, refusing to have RVP, Cavani, Dzeko, Llorente, Higuain and really wanting Pazzini.

I think City said to Mancini that he needs to sell players before buying, so if they want to buy striker they need to sell one of Adebayor or Dzeko

I don't think it's funny anymore.
RvP was long gone buddy. You're right though, enough excuses on Beppe's behalf... we need quality up front.

They'll realise it when they wach Pazzini misses.
Right. Because I have no idea who Pazzini is, and don't shit talk him constantly. Obviously we need help up front.

And now Arsenal has the money to buy Llorente
This is true, something my Gooner pals and I were just discussing. Interesting situation, as their management always contended that Giroud wasn't RvP's replacement (ha).

Marotta loves his bargain deals. What nobody understands is that Marotta sees numbers, not players. Vidal was a top signing by chance. Marotta just saw he was cheap option after not getting Nainggolan or behrami. Marotta still has two weeks to prove he's capable of being a ds for a top European club such as Juventus.

Of all the attackers that we are/were "linked" to, which one is your preffered?
I'll be happy having our attackers as they are now if that means we won't get Pazzini.

Now that RVP is gone (not that I ever thought we could land him), out of Cavani, Llorente or Dzeko I think Cavani is the best. Dzeko and Llorente are on the same level but I prefer Llorente, not that I mind Dzeko.

Now to answer which we will sign? None, it will definitely be Pazzini by "request from Conte".

You wanna bet that it will be otherwise? Just for fun.

Nah man, Marotta's just waiting for other clubs (City, Arsenal) to buy their attacker, then he'll go for the excess one they have, "on our terms". And if they don't buy, there's Llorente.(I don't consider spurs serious)
