I think as Chris says above, while Parker would be expensive the difference he goes straight into our first eleven without doubt - he's not a Beye and its those sort of mediocre high earners we should be avoiding.

How the fuck has Harry come up with this £30m over 3 years bullshit?

Let's say £7m transfer fee to West Ham and be generous and say £1m signing on fee to Parker (which would include agent fees).

That would mean paying Parker £141k a week!

Wasn't he signed by the Icelandic chumps who were paying the likes of Upson and co. mental money?

I'm sure he was, but I'm sure it wasn't for that amount of money per week.

And even if he was, there would be no way in hell that another club would pay him that much.

It was reported that Parker was given a contract in the region of £70-80k a week at West Ham.

well i got 16m for 3 years based on 50k a week, 8m transfer fee and 1m bonus, so i'm not sure where 'Arry's calculator is. To be fair he's on probably nearer 100k than 50.

I can't help feeling that the Redknapp comments mean that he's about to swoop for him.
He's always feeding the media bare faced lies.

Dunno. I reckon Levy would probably veto the deal. A lot of Redknapp's comments seem to have undertones  of criticism of the financial restrictions he has to work under

According to Radio 5, Levy will not break £70k a week for anyone. The highest paid player at Spuds is Van der Faart. Levy won't break his wage structure.

find it very strange that reo coker hasnt picked up a club yet. Unless he is looking for crazy money. We need a brute in midfield still as the jury is still out on Makoun and Delph hasnt done it at EPL level yet either. Petrov is finished, will only be a sub next season for us and I think we should be using him as bait to get signings in. Barton is a better footballer but Reo Coker is a good character and getting him back would be a good signing I reckon.

Luckily for Spurs its the London attraction. Imagine what we would have to pay to get VDV to move to the Midlands

I don't. The blokes a legend in his own (and his agent's) mind.

Parker earns £70k a week at WHU.

Nigel Reo Coker has just signed for Barcelona.

Yes.  He'll be cuddling up to Redknapp on Sky Spurs News before the weekend.
