Tottenham Hotspurs: there is life after Bale

Last update 12 September, 2013 by Alberto Llopis

Tottenham Hotspurs has strengthened a lot this summer, it is a completely renewed team. The foreseeable departure of Gareth Bale from London to Madrid led to the arrival of fresh money, that has served to pay for everything that the "Spurs" were buying. It will be a tough season for Vilas Boas, but the team is more compensated than last year.

The exorbitant price of Bale, exaggerated for a player who has not won anything, has fostered the arrival of young talents. The “Spurs” have entered 126 millions, of which 100 millions come from the transfer of the Welsh player. In the expense item, Daniel Levy, president of Tottenham, has destined 118 million reinforcing all lines of the team.

En la portería seguirá de titular indiscutible el internacional francés Lloris, uno de los mejores porteros de la Premier. En defensa el equipo no ha movido ficha, los Vertonghen y Dawson seguirán siendo los jefes de la zaga, flanqueados por Walker y Rose. Hasta aquí todo normal, porque es en la media y la delantera donde Levy se ha dejado la pasta. Del Corinthians llegó Paulinho a cambió de 20 millions of euros, excelente medio de corte defensivo que se incorpora con peligro al ataque, el brasileño fue una de las sensaciones en la pasada Copa Confederaciones.

La estrella del Ajax, Eriksen llegó a cambió de 12 millions, el holandés es uno de los jugadores más prometedores para la “Orange”. Capua, arrived from the French Saint Etienne for which the “Spurs” have paid 11 million euros and is being a fundamental piece in the line of creation of "The Lilywhites" at this start of competition. Finally the big surprise among the newcomers, the Belgian Chadli, ex del Twente, another crack for Marc Wilmots, Belgium manager. Added to all this talent are the well-known Lennon and the very young Icelandic midfielder Gylfi Sigurösson. for the front, los 60 millions invested halfway between Lamela and Soldier are a guarantee of a goal, although at the moment only the Spaniard has seen the door and a penalty.

Roberto Soldado será la referencia arriba del Tottenham.

Habrá que estar muy atento a la evolución de este equipo del norte de Londres. Tottenham es un barrio humilde y multiétnico, donde la tasa de desempleo es de las más elevadas del Reino Unido. En el corazón de esta conocida barriada londinense se encuentra el estadio de White Hart Lane, where 36.243 almas ven jugar a este histórico del futbol inglés desde 1899. Los “Spurs” fueron el primer club británico en ganar un trofeo UEFA, it was in 1963, superando por un contundente 5-1 al Atlético de Madrid en la Final de la Recopa en Rotterdam. Cuenta en sus vitrinas con una Premier League en la temporada 1960-61 y con dos Copas de la UEFA, ganadas en 1972 y 1984. Pero su último título fue en 2008, en la Football League Cup (League Cup), anteriormente conocida como “Carling Cup”, minor trophy considering the history of this club. In the shadow of Arsenal and Chelsea, regarded as London's third team, this season is presented with an opportunity to consolidate an exciting project.

The defeat against Arsenal in the Emirates has sown some doubt but their "hooligans", one of the most troublesome and noisy hobbies in the UK, they breathe optimism. Your boss, President Daniel Levy, he is one of the toughest negotiators, known the cases of Modric and Bale, which the English tycoon has turned into the "soap operas" of the summer, for two consecutive years. This graduate in economics from the prestigious University of Cambridge, who presides over the “Spurs” with tenacity and cunning has put together a team to be reckoned with, not only in the Premier but also in the Europa League, where he is one of the top favorites to reach the final at the Juventus Stadium in Turin. I firmly believe that there is a future after Bale.
