That is having an academy. Tottenham buy players between 20-24 and then, people think they have a good youth system, think at the team minus Ledley King all from elsewhere. Arsenal buy foreign players aged 15-17 when good things are expected then get credit WHY? only west ham have a proper ACADEMY, NUTH SED West ham get the players under the age of 15.

I am a huge Spurs fan but can see the problem for Spurs as well as all premiership clubs, they are having problems keeping hold of their players that have improved over the last year because most players would get a signing on fee as part of their contract plus a huge hike in wages to move, also the agents get a huge cut and they tend to listen to their agents, the clubs can't win!!!! Look at Fulham, they buy a player for peanuts, turn them into a great player and then are forced to sell because a big clug comes a knocking, sad but a fact of football and NO CLUB gets away from it not even Arsenal / Chelsea or Man U!!!

In the wonderful new world where the Champions League is everything and is almost a closed club, a player at a club not in the CL may move to one that is. Big surprise. However, Tottenham are the only team outside the CL who could break into it. Then the boot will be on the other foot. THFC are creating a squad capable of getting into and staying in the CL. They are doing this by buying the best young talent and tying them to long contracts. If a club want to pay ridiculous money for one of our players (e.g. Carrick) and we have ready made replacements (e.g. Huddlestone) then we may sell. However the club is so well run that it doesn't have to. When we sort out our ground the club will prove what we already know - that we are bigger than Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool(Man U are sadly untouchable). What a pointless article.

Lennon going for the lure of champions league football. My arse. Spurs will be there soon. No one should be stupid enough to move to Chelsea!! They don't play good players when their staring them in the face! I hope the guy who originally wrote the article realises he is talking about football!! Cos all i can see is a bunch of silly predictions that are about as likely to happen as arsenal fielding more than 3 english players in a game!!! This is ridiculous.

Clearly they cant, they sold Carrick. Player pressure (from carrick) dictated this, any of Spurs young, grown-elsewhere, tallent can refuse to sign a new contract and leave for nothing. Also Chelsea are having to sell the players they have accumulated because these players wanted to move and get regular football. (Gallas forced the issue). My point is all clubs are selling clubs and since bosman the players will always dictate this. Sam Fields, Youre on a different planet! Are not even close to Liverpool or Arsenal. They both spanked you. Also Your chairman sells instead of hanging on to the talent (Carrick). How well have you done since selling him? Good business? yeah, like selling he best talent english football ever had...Gazza. Well done on that one.

Simply good business, not selling for the sake of it. Carrick: cost Spurs 2.75m, sold two years later to Man U for 18.6m.
