Spurs roundup with a variety of news, stats and info

Spurs Wages

Daniel Levy reveals that Tottenham pay the biggest bonuses in the Premier League,which goes to show all wages negotiations are not equal. You can't simply equate the basic wage we pay with the basic wage another pays, bonuses need to be taken into consideration as well. There is far more to the Toby Alderweireld wages negotiation than the fan in the street knows.

It's basically performance related pay. If we win, you get a big bonus. What fans need to look at is the overall wage bill against the total income. Our percentage of income wage bill is roughly the same as all the other top four contenders, it's just that our total income is a lot less than theirs.

Burying a head in the sand and pretending that doesn't matter leads to the silly comments about paying a player anything he asks for, which of course leads to every other player then wanting wage increases. Before you know it your wages budget has gone through the roof and other areas of the club suffer, suh as money available for transfer and the ability to borrow money at the best rates.

Thank you to the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters Trust (THST) for publishing details of their meeting with Tottenham Hotspur once again. It is information we don't get in any other way..

SPURS BLOG REPORTING OF ROCHDALE GAME

Many of the players who featured were returning from injury. A lot of these players have seen their replacements thrive. Of the players still coming back, only Danny Rose put in a good display. He and new signing Lucas Moura were two of the few bright points for Tottenham. The likes of Victor Wanyama, Kieran Trippier and Fernando Llorente can have no complaints regarding snubs in the next few weeks.

That is an excerpt from a blog I came across on my travels - Last Word on Football

I do like finding new blogs so if anyone wants to list any Spurs blog they visit it would be most helpful.
