With Tottenham's ambition, would selling Dimitar Berbatov be such a bad idea?

spurs actually mate! we whooped man city!

I AM A MALTESR GREAT SUPPORTE OF SPURS FOR THE LAST 50YEARS ,SO THAT'S WHY I FEEL I HAVE TO VOTE.IF WE WAN'T TO COME BACK GREAT LIKE THE PAST WE HAVE & WE MUST KEEP ALL OUR BIG NAMES.WE MUST ALSO ADD MORE NAMES TO WHAT WE HAVE.COME ON YOU SPURS KEEP IT UP .

of course he has to stay. 30 million wont get you a great deal. imagine if we still had carrick this year.. its pointless to sell your best assets to build a team, whats the point in building if youre buying mediocre talent to replace 30 million stars? And if you believe every newspaper then we have every striker in the known universe lined up in the Summer.

I dont see the point in keeping him now tbh- if he really wants to sell out and play for a "big", soulless club like utd etc, then at least try and sell to real madrid or Barca and try and get some decent players in return - £30m is worthless when theres noone to buy.

I agree in the most part with you Luke, except that Manchester City are not a big club, they have had a good start to the season with Sven at the helm but look at where they have been for the last five years..... struggling for premiership survival. But thats another topic for debate! :) With regards to Berbs, he needs to publicly dismiss his agent, if he wants to stay at Spurs and does not want to leave then he should have his agent declare this if he will not do it himself. Perhaps, all this is a ploy to re-negotiate his pay deal (a bigger club wants me so give me more money because i want to stay! syndrome). I would really like him to stay, i think that Defoe should stay also. The strike partnership should work around Defoe, Berbs and Keane. I believe that Defoe and Berbs up front and Keane sweeping up in an offensive midfield position with Lennon tearing up the wings. Having £30million for selling Berbs would indeed allow for some new players but are they going to be as prolific as Berbs? I doubt it.

If Spurs are the reach the dizzy heights of the Top 4 then they obviously need to keep hold of their top stars, surely the fact that Man U and Chelsea are keen on Berbatov proves he is world class. If we were to lose him what sort of message does that send out, especially if we sell to teams we are plaining to compete with in the coming years? If we really are to progress we need to sell the dead wood Ghaly,Routledge,Staltari,Lee & the vastly over rated Bent and spent the returns on one or two established defensive and midfield players, we certainly have enough youngster for the foreseeable future.

id sell berba hes an idol sh*t and david villa is a much better finisher than him and defo although i do like defo alot... i say let utd have him in part exchange to bring carrick back and maybe wes brown too if chimps on his way out oh and plus 10 mill as well ... cisse is available too he would make a good addition if his legs fixed up good strong and pacey then bent can go too if the hammers are stilll willing to splash the cash our front line is lacking pace when defoe dont play so im all for changing the whole lot...

Are some of our so called fans, lets sell the best and biggest assest of the club, and replace hime with?. yeah really well thought out. Every new manager has different ideas and plans, but the one thing they should have in common is a desire to make us a 'top' side, and that cannot happen without quality players such as Berbatov. We got good money for Carrick, but so what! with hindsight would you have kept Carrick, of course you would
