The video on the OS makes him look like the boss of the century. He certainly has scored a few brilliant ones, like.

Clock says he's been there all day!
And Pienaar's like, "Oh ffs Phil, I've only been gone a couple months!"
we sold him for 3m when he was 28 and now buy him back for 4.5m thats not great business. he is a great player at the moment but so was cahill at that age, who would ever have predicted cahill would get that bad so quickly
Best option was to loan him for another year pay a small fee to loan him and then sign him for around 1m when he was 31.
we used to be one of the best clubs around for doing transfer deals especially selling players for double sometimes triple for what they are worth, recentlyu there have been some stunners
bily cost 9.6m sold for 5m
yak bought for 12.25m sold for 1,5m
cahill sold for just 1m even at 32 he is worth more then that and we know it
and now pienaar sold for 3m bnought back for 4.5m

Contract was up; contract wasn't up. It's just business neither good nor bad. Do you want to sign an inferior player to Pienaar for 4.5m (not that we know that was the real figure) purely because we didn't sell him for less a year or so ago? There is a nose related saying for that.
Why would Spurs agree to that?
Tell NY that. Or for that matter tell any other club who was free to make an offer since it was well known we were shopping him. He may not have wanted to play for another Prem team so options were limited. Who knows maybe it was a partial make-weight in an eventual LD deal.
There is more to it that "get more money EFC FFS." If the other clubs aren't interested or the players aren't interested in moving to that team then what are you going to do? Not moving Cahill (because we are stubbornly holding out for 2-3m which nobody wants to give us doesn't just cost us 1m in lost transfer costs it costs us 2.5m or so in Cahill's wages).
Anyway I'm very happy to have Pienaar back. Welcome back! He's the bestus!

£4.5m - £3m we got for him means we have paid around £1.5m.
I think we paid at the very top end for Bily and its a deal I suspect could do with further examination one day. The Yak got a serious injury which no-one could factor in and the issue with both him and Cahill the relatively 'massive' wages for players of their age and years left on their contracts would mean the prices naturally fall its the nature of the business.
On pienaar i've said before that I think from a business sense the whole transfer saga is awful however it makes perfect footballing sense. The issue as I see it with your plan is we'd have to have convinced Spurs to loan and also have told Pienaar we actually didn't want to sign him any more and loan him when othr clubs were prepared to sign him and hope his 'love' for the club would bring him back under those circumstances and frankly i'd see that as unlikely. Then we'd also pay a 'small ' loan fee, most of which similar fees for players of his standard are around a £1m whilst hoping Spurs would drop £3.5m from his fee in 12 months. To be honest that all sounds a bit hopeful to me

I reckon Moyes's missus accidentally ripped out the July page on the calender along with June.

If you think of the money being spunked on some players, I am made up with Peanuts coming back home. We know what we are getting with him - guile, creativity, hunger. He knows he is the creative pivot of the team, and that gives any key player a boner. He knows the fans love him, same effect. He will boss the team going forward, he feels at home, and we got him for a bargain price these days. Better than some newbie who doesn't know if he will fit into the system or if he is really wanted. Some players belong at certain clubs. Peanuts belongs at Everton. We are going to have a better season with him around, that's for sure.
