Gaspode Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Rumours this morning that Spurs want Hart to boost the number of English players in their squad - no doubt a big wage packet on offer, but does he want his career to wither away as a bit part player?

Scott Carson and Lee Grant seem ok with it. Rob Green was happy to do it. The player can guarantee to be financially well off after retiring, although I'm sure Hart isnt shy of a few quid anyway. Honestly cant see us signing Hart, we all know keeper is top priority so with less than 4 weeks to go til kick off, if Hart was signing I would have imagined he would be here by now.

Leicester Ram Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Nice to see this homegrown rule working a treat, I expect another big improvement in the England set-up now young English talents like Joe Hart are getting a chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePrisoner Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I'd be a bit surprised if he did this, I think he'd want to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OoooMarkWright Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 If Hart signs for Tottenham it would go against everything he said about wanting to play football again. He’s been sat on his arse for 2 years at Burnely. No chance he plays ahead of Lloris. Money talks I guess, all clubs will have dodged a bullet if that is his motivation. I don’t think we’re interested anyway, his wages will be too much for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretsquirrel Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Reporting that the salary at Tottenham would be 50k a week-not bad for just playing cup games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamsFan10 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 He’ll probs play a handful a matches, cup games and maybe europa league early rounds. They’ll also be able to pay him a lot more, which it’s a big thing especially for someone his age. Can’t blame him to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Absolute classic move that is. Can’t blame him though to be fair, he’ll be getting paid far more to warm the bench at that level than he would playing regularly at our level. Easy money really, just like Scott Carson. We couldn’t compete with the wages Spurs can offer if we were ever genuinely interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that but then when you look at Spurs over the last couple of years Lloris has had some terrible form and also a couple of bad injuries so he will inevitably get some game time. Guess he's backing himself to try and dislodge him as number 1. At least he's doing it from a position of number 2. He was 3rd choice at Burnley.

Given the choice I know which one I'd be taking and its the one that pays the most. I don't blame Hart for taking that route at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he thinks he can unseat Lloris as number 1. However unlikely it seems that he could replace the World champions' first choice when he spent a good deal of time failing to replace England's 2nd/3rd choice keeper, perhaps we should admire the ambition.

If your a struggling footballer I get that money is important, limited career and all that. But Hart is a comfortable multi millionaire no doubt. Would you not want to play games and aim to finish your career on the pitch, not on the bench? Seems a waste to me. First choice on 25k top trumps 50k on the bench for me, especially if you’ve earned big money for the last 12 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbados Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Haha just comical! What was that massive shirtless article piece he put out about wanting to be first choice “finding himself” and the right project, irrespective of league etc and repaying the faith to a club who believed in him to play football again. Goes on to sit on Tottenhams bench for the next 2 years ? hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
