Spurs most expensive XI

Stole this from the United board, but thought it was interesting. Our most expensive starting XI:

Tottenham

Lloris

Aurier Alderweireld Sanchez Vertonghen

Sissoko Paulinho

Lucas Son Lamela

Soldado

Total cost: £244.4m

Average player cost: £22.2m

Record signings (4): Paulinho (£17m, July 2013), Roberto Soldado (£26m, August 2013), Moussa Sissoko (£30m, September 2016), Davinson Sanchez (£42m, August 2017)

Players no longer with Spurs: Paulinho, Roberto Soldado

Players signed by each manager: Mauricio Pochettino (7), Andre Villas-Boas (4)


Not too far off our current XI and the two no longer with us have been replaced, for free, using academy players and massive upgrades in quality:

Winks > Paulinho
Kane > Soldado

By my reckoning AVB signed Hugo, Vert, Paulinho, Lamela, Soldado, which is 5. Poch signed the other 6.

Also, Dembele cost £15m, which is more than Vert or Toby (approx £11m each). Room for him?

yeah take verts out and whack Son left back

Interesting that 75% of our record signings in your list are flops.

Also you're missing Lamela from the list, who was £26 million I think.

I was going to give this 5 stars but peer pressure got to me.
