One of Spurs's
defensive signing, Johnathan Woodgate.
Tottenham's re-signing of Pascal Chimbonda from Sunderland has
the Londoners spending over £64 MILLION on their defence in the
last three seasons.
In the last three seasons alone they have splashed out on
THIRTEEN keepers and defenders.
Chimbonda, 29, re-signed yesterday just months after leaving for
Sunderland to take Tottenham’s spending on FOUR right-backs alone
to £27m, says The Sun.
Signing Chimbonda twice has cost Spurs £7.5m, Alan Hutton was a
£9m buy from Rangers, Vedran Corluka arrived from Manchester City
for £8.5m and Chris Gunter signed from Cardiff for £2m.
But despite Tottenham splashing the cash, they have continued to
leak goals with only bottom two Stoke and West Brom having a worse
league record on the road.
Spurs have conceded 19 on their travels while tonight’s
opponents Stoke have been hit for 24 and rock-bottom Baggies for
21.
