Just saw that Becks was once again the highest earner with a whopping $50.6m banked in 2012!!
Messi's actual salary is $21.2m with sponsors etc it was $39m.
 
van der vaart

Completely forgotten about VDV, well remembered, though I think the reason I forgot him was due to him playing more of an advanced role in a sort of support striker role.

If the reports are true that Bale has asked to leave then we need to sort it quickly and try to find replacements as it has dragged on long enough as it is.

David De Gea has confessed he would like to see Cesc Fabregas end up at Old Trafford. With reports claiming the third, and possibly final bid in the pipeline, will be a record figure from United, surpassing the fee paid for Dimitar Berbatov, the keeper said in Marca: "Fabregas has to make a decision to stay or come to us. He would be a great signing, and would help us to improve." De Gea also admitted he did attempt to persuade Thiago Alcantara to come to Manchester. "Yes, I tried to convince him but it could not be," he said. "He would have been a good signing. He decided for Bayern Munich, who are a very good club, and I'm sure he'll do very well."

Try harder David.
 
One funny thing that is going around is that should spurs sell bale they will go after Suarez.

No offence to spurs but if arsenal can't get him with cl, then spurs have very little to offer.

nonsense. no idea why that rumour came about.

but there may be light at the end of the tunnel if/when bale departs

Tottenham Hotspur have turned to their technical director Franco Baldini to help convince AS Roma forward Erik Lamela to move to White Hart Lane, reports in Italy suggest.

Source: International Business Times

The future of Gareth Bale has been under constant scrutiny this week amid mounting reports that Real Madrid have launched a record breaking transfer bid of £85m for the Wales international.

With a number of sources speculating that the 24-year-old is on board with a move to the Bernabeu, Tottenham could be left with a huge creative and goal scoring void to be filled in their starting XI just three weeks away from the new Premier League season.

But according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the club have identified Argentine international Lamela as someone who can help fill the gap and will test Roma's resolve with a bid of €35m should Bale complete a move to the La Liga giants.

Although Roma themselves are in the process of rebuilding their side after a disappointing sixth place finish in Serie A last season, Gazzetta understands that Tottenham will dispatch Baldini to feel out the possibility of bringing the 21-year-old to north London.

The 52-year-old Italian has served as director of football at the Giallorossi on two separate occasions, his most recent being a spell from 2011 before he was snapped up by Spurs earlier this year.

In the early stages of his role in Rome, Baldini oversaw the club's purchase of Lamela from River Plate for a reported fee of €12m, and Tottenham are hopeful the former England assistant's influence over the youngster's initial move to Europe could have a hand in a prospective move to the Premier League.

After struggling in his debut campaign in Italy, Lamela was one of Roma's stand out performers in a disappointing season that culminated in a Coppa Italia defeat to bitter rivals Lazio.

His 15 goals and five assists in a front three alongside Pablo Osvaldo and Francesco Totti suggest he is likely to have a key role in Roma's plans in the new season, leaving Tottenham with a difficult job of prising the forward away from the Italian capital.

Simple fact of the matter is that Liverpool are not going to sell him to us or any other PL club unless we or someone else pays over £50mill for him. I read earlier today on the Daily Mail that we could have him for £55mill but i cant see Arsenal stumping that sort of money for him. Plus i think if say Real came in and said look heres £41mill, Liverpool would sell him and thats why they will keep hold of him as they wont sell him to another PL club.

I also read that he wont be fighting this so called clause thats in his contract as it seems to be pretty water tight from what i read.

So with that being said, Wenger is just wasting his time as per usual trying to sign Suarez. A monumental waste of time this transfer window has been tbqh, so many links to players but nothing, nada and it doesnt seem likely we will be buying anyone from what Wenger is barking about lately. So while Spurs strengthen with Paulinho and Soldado...Wenger foolishly thinks that our current squad is good enough to win trophies and get into CL again next season...i hope so because if we dont, then its only a matter of time before the chants of 'Spend some ****ing money you tightwad' begins:p
 
Can't believe Spurs have sold Caulker, looks like a great young English CB and I bet long term Spurs will regret losing him.

Shame Toon are a waste of space, would have loved to sign him and Sinclair. British players could only help us. :(
 
If he really wanted to move to you lot he would take it to court

You don't take matters to court without reason. If the contract is watertight and the release clause not met then what would be gained by going to court other than losing money and alienating the club.

we got £9m for him. i don't see the point in selling him for that tbh.

Usually agree with you Mr.Pigeon but all things considered Suarez had a better season than Bale? Really?
Scored more goals and got more assists. If he was English and not damaged in the head he would've been player of the season imo. As it was he ****ed up his chance when he auditioned for a part in the Walking Dead :(
