sell Modric to ANY foreign club who can match 35m and tell Kranjcar he is playing Modric's role and let him play there as he will score more than Modric
Get rid of that waste of space Crouch and bring in Gyan to play upfront with VDV supporting him

Ceballos was supposed to join today. Leandro was supposedly a Spurs player before he signed a contract. I'm getting really angry with this $%% . Don't mislead us anymore - only tell us the truth when you're 100% sure, not 80%. Really, really depressed. {Ed008's Note - Ceballos did sign today :/ Did i not explain that to you lot when i informed you of this news i tried to find info about this deal until i found out last night he signed a contract extension when Internacional offered a bigger wage to stay. I'll just quit if you want i'm frustrated too you know.

Come on don't take it out on the ed
I'm pretty sure everyone thought leandro
Was heading to us...
And I'm pretty sure every spurs fan is getting a little upset to say the very least with no players being signed ..
However ... I thinks for as much as Alot of people say redknapp and levy are such and such because of xyz reasons ...
I think we have to trust them and be patient that little while longer ... Hell last
Summer shows what can happen at the last minute VDV signing says enough really

It appears that most of our faithful are reaching for the panic button in light of the Modric situation. I'm not so sure that the knee jerk responses are well informed or just those created by blind panic.

1) Levy isn't interested in selling key players, if Modric does end up leaving, it will be on Levy's terms. The player will have to hand in a written transfer request, forfeit all outstanding bonus + contract related payments and in turn Spurs will put a massive price tag on him. If the team that finished 2nd last season want to improve their squad with Modric then they will have to pay top dollar to do so. Other interested clubs will find the negotiations with Spurs easier then Rom(mel)'s plaything.

2) Modric's departure won't result in the sale of Bale, VDV etc. The public reaction to Modric and players like him (Tevez, Fabregas etc) hasn't been at all good and displays a serious detachment from general society which Bale, VDV etc would understand better then Modric's botched attempt at player power.

3) Levy is prepared to invest in the playing squad but struggles with Redknapp's choice of targets, which are generally against the recommendation of club scouts and also his ability to talk to the media about any and everything.

Eto'o, Aguero, Rossi, Vucinic, Adebayor, Gyan, Drogba, Berbatov and Hazard are well out of Levy's price range and has told Harry to accept spurs wont sign a world class player this season and told him to accept Modric, Bale and Sandro will leave for big money and Harry won't get a penny to sign on transfers. if he doesn't accept Levy will show Harry the door

If there is any truth in this, and I will believe it when i see it, the end result will all depend on the supporters. I have little faith in football supporters per se, the Man Utd scenario proves a point, mass protests, all those yellow and green scarves/shirts sold and for what? The ground still gets filled every other week. So Levy wants to sell our best players for a profit? Why? To build a bigger stadium? Why? Wont he have lost 90% of the clubs supporters by selling our best players? How would the club fill the new stadium? This is the primary reason i suspect that a lot of b*llocks is being talked. Levy is far from stupid, he cannot afford to sell our best players, the club will go into a nosedive and he will be public enemy no1. The issue is whether we will continue to go to the lane if he does, i suspect that enough will for any protest to fall on its face. Im afraid its the fickle supporter that holds the key, not the chairman, not harry and certainly not Modric.

Ceballos has signed.
Chelsea have bid 27.5mil today according to ian wannabe mcgarry. 25Mil +2.5 add ons what a joke. After nasris representatives informed man utd and city that nasri is staying (judas campbell mk 11) both clubs alledgelly were straight onto modric.
I want the lil sh@t gone but not to chelsea, they are a pathetic lil club and are getting nothing. Levy will f@ck modric right up, why, cos levy is an animal and tottenham through and through.

Modric looks a ready made replacement for scholes to me.if hes going somewhere in this league, then man u is the lesser of the evils in my opinion.
unless chelsea want to pay way way over the odds of course, with possiblydrogba crossing to us.
levy will secure the best price possible for no 14, if he decides to sell.
although remember redknapp promised to quit[interview in may 2011] should any of our best players be sold.
he has a difficult decision to make.
no player is irreplacable, and we managed admirably without no 14 for part of last season.

I would just like to say that we should let modric go if he was such a brilliant player we would have beaten teams like Blackpool , west brom , west ham. Total 14 points lost . Let's get someone in who can break down the lesser clubs.

Modric to hand in a transfer request like Carrick, Keane and Berbatov have done to us. there is the smallest amount of players that are loyal in football today its disgusting how the players forgot about the fans and do what ever they please

Arry will resign this week because Levy wants to sell Bale as well as Modric to make a nice little profit but won't give the money to Arry to spend and wants to use the money for the stadium. im seriously worried now Levy is doing everything to destroy our club

Redknapp to resign as spurs manager hahaha you spuds are f***ed

Believable1 Unbelievable2

He's gone in 12 months anyway, if he wants to go now who cares

Agree2 Disagree0

What the F

spuds r screweeeeeeeeed. god it takes few mins n ur gone ....

if ARRY goes ..players would also follow
if modric forces the move ...lol bale n co would also go hence arry
if somehow u hold on to all of the
still
.....
ur screwed ..imajin what player would want to sign for spurs the sinking ship ....
n with all negativity ..no good signings or no signings ....u will struggle to even hold on to 5-6 forget abt top4

Agree0 Disagree2

Most of the squad were signed befoe Redknapp and when we only had Europa league to offer so your theory is b*llsh*t.

Agree0 Disagree0

Theory is not bullsh*t stupid cu*t...just because u don't want to believe

yes all players were signed be4 ARRY came but that is past ..they were 2-3 YRS younger then nobody knew them...
who the f cared who is modric then?

now all is changed all vdv bale modric r in there prime n hence want to leave 4 a bigger club/BETTER MONEY....all u guys dont understand ur not big...small stadium ...recognition in only england (a lil bit due to ur last 2 seasons) suddenly dont make u bigger than manu-che-pool-ars...or barca-real-valevcia-inter-AC-JUVE THE LIST GOES ON...

n im not saying just coz old a** arry goes they would leave ..the uncertainty n negativity will make them think abt moves which r already there .

u as a fan has great pride n respect 4 spurs they r big or s**t u dont care ....n that should be but what abt the players who can see ur great spurs pay sooooo much less compaired to others, , , from last two windows cant even buy a good forward all these things make players think that have i make it large or should i move on

Agree0 Disagree0

I would call the fifth most decorated team in English football history a big club, having lots of fans means you are well supported, having history and winning major honours makes you a BIG club, Spurs have won more titles than Chelski.
Stop being a tw*t and go post on your own teams web site.

Agree0 Disagree0

don't even joke like that...the situation ur in with arry, madric, bale.....wanting out it doesn't sound good..
i dont remember when u won something last time....no premier league title...may be in old days hmm 2nd world war? n if ur talking abt few cups here n there u can count them
but but that doesent make u 5th most decorated team ...lol(just coz u came 5th last season ? then wolvs would say they r 20th most decorated team lol)

ur fans? to be a worldwide appeal u need to perform consistently in both england n europe ...2 good season in england n 1 in europe doesn't make i big club....its just that a good run has excited the fans thats it...when u think abt worldwide support there r plenty ahead of u...n thats y players reject u for them...

n what history just hanging on in top flight doesn't make it a history..if ur so sure just cut down ur last 2 seasons ..when u were in drop zone n then think what history n all u have

Agree0 Disagree0

You need to do some more reserach, in terms of major honours won Spurs are the fifth most decorated, you can verify this on any sporting web site you choose, major honours in this case include 1st div/prem league title, F.A cup, League cup or any european trophy.
As you don't have the guts to tell us which team you are defending its not really possible to asceratain wether or not you have been more successful than Tottenham and I seem to remember, albeit not a great deal to brag about but still more than Arsenal in last six years, winning the league cup three years ago and beating Chelski in the final.
I don't know where your getting this information from about Spurs not being a worldwide leading brand but you're certainly mis-guided, you should also look up which English team were the first to lift any European silverware.
Can't remember either last time Spurs were involved in a relegation scrap come the end of the season but still if you view success as savouring fourth instead of having ambition to go on and do better like Liverpool or Arsenal do every season fair enough.
Before coming to a site like this bro and spouting rubbish do your research, check your facts and prevent yourself from looking like a fool, if you are so anti Tottenham go post somewhere else, its that easy, no-one here needs your wailing about how badly Spurs are doing or your opinion as to the state of the club, its supposed to be a Tottenahm site, why are you on here if you don't like the club?
Or even more bizarre bothering to post.

let modric go and bring in paulo henriquie (excuse spelling) I believe he plays for Santos and is 21 so good youngster and plays in Brazil senoir team...nico should be offered chance to play modric the judas's position and we should push harder for marin and diego. Judas can go. sell him to man u with nani in return

Is anyone else starting to get p*ss*d off with Harry and Levy??

They going to end up doing the same as every transfer window... Leave it til the ed trying to snap up bargains and get no1.

Unless we let Modric go now to raise some cash and get signing i cant see us even getting top 5 next season

Oh dear; Modric is furious and now hates Tottenham. Meanwhile Cesc and Nas are commited to Arsenal.

I for one hope they either

A) Get rid of the little s**t as soon as possible

B) Make him ROT for the next year, training alone with no games and no contact so he cannot be a bad influence on the rest of the squad.

Screw the money, teach the bi**h a lesson

Ed and anybody else who wishes to comment, of course.

With the Leandro saga now cleared up and him signing a new contract and with all the issues surrounding Modric the mercenary, I was wondering can we actually expect any new signing in the near future or are we destined to get left behind by the rest of the league?

I personally dont see losing Modric as a big loss. We just have to look at how Sunderland reacted to losing there best player (Before everyone jumps all over that, in now way am I saying Henderson is anywhere near as good as Modric but he was arguably Sunderlands best midfielder). They just sold for a top price and brought in several good young players who will improve the team as a whole.
{Ed008's Note - If Modric leaves expect Kranjcar to stay and play in the middle.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

Ed I think that's 'when' Modric leaves the little bag of s**t - swap him for Marin and Mertesacker (maybe some money in that swap) but get him as far away from WHL as possible

Agree0 Disagree0

Actually Kranjcar and Corluka want to go now because Modric is going

Agree1 Disagree0

I totally agree with ed 08 he was always far to good to be benched... And as I keep saying whilst maybe not as good creatively
As his counterpart .. He is better when it comes to finishing ... something which modric lacks..

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree 100% to that. At least we would get more goals from midfield. more than we get from MMM...... I cant even say his name already.

Agree1 Disagree0

Can't see us doing much in the transfer window, really can't see Levy giving 30-40m to a manager who is gone in 12 months

Why don't we just sell the f***ing unfaithful arrogant little p***k.

He moans that Levy said this and said that blah blah blah but at the end of the day it was him (Modric) who started all this s**t off by saying he wanted to join Chelsea.

Sell him to any f***er who wants him except Chelsea (there partly to blame as well the ar**holes)

Realistically guys does anyone really want the little s**t in the squad anymore?

Believable5 Unbelievable0

I cant understand y r we sooo obsessed with modric , as if modric = tottenham?

y not just sell him at max price ...as the F**kin LEVY doesnt has funds , 20-25miln + players for modric is best for us as how long r we gonna keep a unhappy player?

look at liverpool ...torres wanted out? BANG..dalglish didn't cared ..sold him to mad money 50miln ..lol n signed carroll, suarez ..n finished better than expected...

this saga is a shame .its insulting us ....what player would want to sign us ..if this continues ?
just get good money n get back to our transfer activity as fast as we can
