When spurs sort out Lamela as a replacement for Bale it will make a mockery of the way we have gone about our job of replacing sold players from Vieira, Pires, Gilberto, Flamini, Henry, Ade, Toure, Nasri, Cesc and Robin v. Persie. They have gone and strengthened and negotiated an amazing inflated fee when the player only wants one club + they have done so without confirming the deal and getting screwed over on their side.
If Wenger was managing that lot then they would be talking up Andros Townsend's ability to replace bale and storing the money in some vault as far away from Tottenham as humanly possible.
We really bent over and took it from Barca over Cesc when you compare the situations.
