Except for the vast difference in revenue (about 60m)Keep Emi , Godfrey, and Cantwell and get rid of crap like McLean , Steiperman and Vrancic , That would save us a few quid

Interesting read this morning on what Emi has to say about his future . Reading between the lines he would jump at the chance to stay in the PL with another club , but is covering himself by saying his head is still with us . He will go .

I agree but club will sell for much less i rekon, probably 17/18m knowing smiffsHe is the most important creative player we have and nothing less than £30m is enough to prise him from us.
The problem lies with the premiership buyers. They don't want a loan, especially if we do get back up because that player is then playing against them. Unfortunately a lot of the bigger teams buy to stop other teams getting them and also as a future big saleable assett.This may sound like an odd suggestion but why do relegated teams never loan out their stars when they get relegated with a view to sell if they don't get straight back up? if they do go straight back up - the players return in the prem. I know that sounds ridiculous but footballers careers aren't long and a season is a chunk of their career so of course they want to play in the prem - add to that international call ups and international tournaments - they need to play in the top league. Most people will be shouting "loyalty" but so much money is wasted selling good players and not being able to replace them. buying a player is a gamble not a science. i would be ok with Emi loaned for the season - and then return to us when we are promoted - with a season more experience in the premier league. Is this absolute blasphemy??

my thought process was that quite often the players end up at promoted sides - who then get relegated. if Emi went to Leeds they could go down - we would never buy him back if we went up. A loan solves that issue.
It is crazy. I do wonder why the other football clubs don't all chip in to help out their football family.BBC Sport this morning and 2 stories which show everything that is wrong with pay for footballers.
Bale to Spuds ?
Where Bale is concerned, a loan looks likeliest at the moment, although a permanent transfer has not been ruled out with Real keen to recover costs as they look to offload their highest earner.
Bale's salary is perhaps the biggest hurdle for Spurs to overcome - he still has two years left on a contract which is thought to be worth about £600,000 a week.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is working through the detail of the deal and how to make it work. Indications are Real would be willing to pay a proportion of Bale's salary but even then he would be getting more than England and Tottenham captain Harry Kane.

One weeks gross pay could save a complete football club !
