Pochettino, CL, Lo Celso, Lamela and Foyth. Can see why he would like to go there.
Paulo Dybala

Could be that Poch being from Argentina tips it in their favor? I would imagine Dybala forced to making a compromise on salary in order to facilitate a move like this? Unless Spurs are ready to upend their wage structure?
To him and the pop entourage we must seem like a burned out Winterfell if the deal materializes this way. Pretty sure he is a missmatch to this team, would have loved if we got a classy ball playing DM this window or next instead.
He's already been hyped up loads by various posters on the caf, but he's been the most disappointing player for me in pre-season.
I was expecting someone with more quality.
And he might be a mainstay in the first XI.
That still would make him one of, if not the top earner at their club though.
I’d be surprised if they did completely change their wage structure for Dybala. Surely it will mean people like Kane and Alli will want even more too?
Spoiler that shit ffs.
It could but more so the fact that Pochettino is highly rated anyway.
Bloody hell this just might happen, no way would we still be negotiating this close to the deadline day. Apparently we have agreed personal terms and transfer fee, its just the commercial rights. 
I hop the little shit doesn't flop if he comes, a fee of under £65M

This is really painful goddamn it. Will be a constant reminder of our failures if he ends up at spurs and ends up being top class.
This is my thought, fair play if they do it though.
Well, he wouldn't earn 350k a week as he was supposed to at United. Huge risk, huge wages.
He’s a speed merchant no more
No discernible technical quality and it’s obvious his ceiling isn’t particularly high - he’ll go on to have a Valencia / Young type career for us if we are lucky
This shit sums up where we are as a club and I’m not going to sit here and pretend to be excited about it
We are a joke
So, it's not the money.
Would he not be 350k a week? Surely Kane isn’t even on that?Bloody hell this just might happen, no way would we still be negotiating this close to the deadline day. Apparently we have agreed personal terms and transfer fee, its just the commercial rights.
Where would he fit for you? Ali moved to the bench?
And that's the problem with signing only him for our offensive positions which means we expect too much of him instead of let him just adjust to the level while others carry the burden.
that's how I see it as well.
They'd have to pay massive fees to two agents and a huge wage and have a battle over image rights...for a player who is effectively being forced to move. Doesn't sound very Levy or Pochettino like to me.
Nothing about this Dybala thing has made much sense though. I'd have been very wary of us signing him.

I don't really get it.
If we didn't sign him because he didn't really want to play in the PL, why does he suddenly want to play in the PL now?
If we didn't sign him 'cos he wants a crazy wage, how on earth are Spurs affording said crazy wage with their tight wage structure?
If we didn't sign him because the deal is too complex with this image rights shit, how have Spurs managed to sort it out?

I agree with a lot of you about the ineptitude of Ed. But to be fair, it just sounds like Dybala wants to play for Spurs and Poch a fellow Argentine. No matter how much we want to disbelieve, Spurs do have a better team at the moment and they have CL football.
So if he really didn’t fancy us, I actually agree with the Club that it makes no sense to pursue the deal and land another Di Maria. We have enough mercenaries as it is.
At the end of the day the Spurs are just a better fit and we have to accept that.

Well overdue
If Spurs pull this off then that's really a new low for Ed Woodward & United . I just hope that it doesn't happen but ornstein is the most reliable journalist around
Spurs looking to sign our rejects?
He would fit in well as we do actually play with a second striker (Dele, Lucas, Son role) around Kane, Id say Dele will be he main competition (he needs it). He wont be on £350K that's for sure, not even with all bonuses but he will probably be equal to Kane.
Kane is on around £200k per week - don't think they'll immediately make Dybala their highest earner so if he goes to Spurs, I expect him to earn a little less than £200k.
While I didn't want Dybala coming to United if he didn't want to, seeing him go to Tottenham would really sting, it suggests a changing of the guard in terms of PL hierarchy.
You do, you just don't want to admit it, it was an Ed Woodward breifing to control the narrative. Dybala simply didn't want to play for us in the Europa League for an inexperienced manager and would rather play for Spurs under Poch
Ed Woodward is a mug.
Probably not since the figures mentioned aren't special. People will have a hard time accepting it but it's the club and its circumstances. We may like Ole but he is a nobody in the managerial world and for a team that has struggled to qualify for CL, let alone perform in it, it's a massive issue because outsiders have no reason to believe that this club is on the right track. The club could be on the right track but it's not visible from the outside.
No doubt whatsoever about that!
According to mainstream sources personal terms are agreed, its just the commercial rights, if Dybala wants to come it will be sorted if not he wont.
Looks like he isn't a mercenary, we just aren't an attractive prospect to him. People need to wake up and smell the coffee if they think we can keep having average seasons missing out on CL and remain attractive to top players because of our history and money.
He has offered to play for free and actually pay Spurs in order to play for the club and play at their new stadium.
All the noise around him was that he wanted 11m a year, that’s quite a come down from him if true.
Maybe it just proves that the journos are fabricating an awful lot.
Well yes, sadly so, this seems like a further slide.
I'm amazed at how good Valencia was 2011/12 and it's just been forgotten by some people just think of him as average. He was a very good signing for United, people are clouded with his last few years at the club.
I'll believe it when he has signed for Spurs.
