"Wouldn't Tottenham look wonderful with (Hugo) Lloris, that back three of (Eric) Dier, (Jan) Vertonghen, (Toby) Alderweireld, (Danny) Rose on the left, (Kyle) Walker on the right, (Victor) Wanyama and (Mousa) Dembele, Dele (Alli), Griezmann, Harry Kane?"Wilkins is right, Spurs would look great with Griezmann in the team. They would also look great with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in their team, but that's not going to happen. That's not a slight against Spurs, who are an excellent team. But the club aren't going to break the world transfer record for a player, and Griezmann's wage demands would shatter their wage structure. They also have a new stadium to pay for. https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_UK/status/871003799221145600 However, Wilkins wasn't about to let reality get in the way of his theory. "You've got a chance of winning, you've already got the best defence, now you add Griezmann alongside Harry Kane with Dele sitting in behind him, you've got three players who score goals," he said.
"If Tottenham think they are going to win the league with the guys they got at the moment, then I think they're barking up the wrong tree for next season."You can watch the clip here:
