How did not signing Ashley Young "bite us" - unless you're saying that it is Tottenham's obligation to sign every promising English player in the market?
He was a good player whom we let go to another club when they outbid us and then he developed into a better player. You may as well say that not signing Rooney when he moved from Everton to Man U "bit us". Or, for that matter, that Villa let us "bite them" when we signed Luka Modric last Summer.
We can't sign all of the good players, you know.
Can't beleive we screwed this transfer up so royally - he was at the bloody Wembley cup as a guesat of the club. Transfer was proceeding well and suddenly he's gone to bloody Villa - talk about dropping the ball!

Villa represent his best chance of playing first team football from day one for him and so surely it's an honorable and football related decsion on his part to want to join them.
