*Transfer Outs*

Rumours are that Peter Crouch could be on his way to either Everton or Newcastle as we look to make space for new arrivals. (Adebayor)

Roman Pavlychenko has held talks with Harry over the possibility of staying and extending his contract however Harry has other plans and believes he can do good business over the sale of Pavlychenko. (10 mill)

Robbie Keane is deffinately on his way out. has no future at the club. Rumours are that QPR are willing to make a 4 million bid for him.

Jamie Ohara. To be honest i like his passion for the game. I believe he would make a decent squad player. Rumours are, if Wolves manage to stay up, then they will make an official 5-6 million bid for him, which will be accepted.

David Bentley. Like Robbie Keane, he has no future what so ever at the club. First come, first serve as long as he accepts the offer. A deal around 7-8 million will be enough to prize him away.

Jonathan Woodgate. Injury prone. A complete waste of space at our club. Contract will not be renewed. I feel for whoever decides to other him a contract. If they do it should be a Pay as you play deal.
Ledley King, also injury prone but will be kept because of what he is capable of doing when he is fully fit. Next season he aims to make alot more appearances, as he look to have shaken off most of his problems. Will be carefully monitored.

Alan Hutton. will be a player sold to make space. hasn't got the package to be a quality right back.
Will be replaced by Kyle Waker. a deal of around 6-7 million and spurs will be tempted.

Sebastian Bassong. Decent defender however can be prone in making mistakes. Will not be sold unless he hands in a transfer request which look pretty likely. 8-9 million should be enough.

Niko Krancjar. What can i say about this player. Has bags of pure quality but hasn't been given the chance by Harry Redknapp. Has already held talks over his future and looks to be heading in another direction. Niko's one player who will not have any difficulty in finding a new club. Liverpool are interested but we are looking to offload him abroad. Serie A! 8-9 million looks to be on the cards.

Pletikosa. sad because he has not been given the chance when Gomes was making blunders, however, been told he has an attitude problem.
Cudicini. looks to retire at the end of the season. but may be convinced to stay on 1 more season. love his attitude!

*Transfer Rumours*

Its almost certain that if Harry Redknapp makes an official approach for Emmanuel Adebayor, he will join.
This is a signing that would improve us alot in the strikers department. Would cost us around 12 million to sign.

Mamadou Sakho has made up his mind about who he wants to join. Whether its Spurs, Arsenal or a Italian team who knows, but what i do know is that we will be making a big money bid for him. Somewhere along the lines of 22 million.

Shay Given. Wants to move to london and will not be staying at Manchester City. Purely because he wants first team football. We will make an offer for him.

Lukaku. Wants to join a team with big ambitions and we certainly are a team with big ambitions. supporting chelsea means nothing. Wants his next destination to be the premierleague and a club in london. We will hold talks over him with a possible deal.
With the current formation chelsea play it will be very hard for him to get games and adapt to the league especially with Torres signing and Anelka, Drogba and Sturridge willing to fight for a place. This deal looks extremely positive. 16 mill.

Falcao. A real goalscorer. We're certainly monitering his situation at porto. A bid will deffinately be tabled this summer however the price i do not know. its been rumoured that a deal of Pavlychenko and 10 million could be enough.

Finaly Pablo piatti. a deal kept quite however should blossem at the end of the season. young, good ability, potential and wouldn't cost us alot. a deal of around 8 million could be enough.
Podolski is another who Harry is a massive fan of.

*Wastefull Deals*

Players like Parker, Green, Demba Ba, Gyan, Charlie adams are all wastefull signings if you ask me.
I can give you a 100 reasons why not to sign these players. These are below average players who are not good enough for Tottenham Hotspur Football club(Even parker) he had his chance at chelsea and didn't make it, therefore cannot cut it at a higher team with bigger ambitions. Sandro is 10 times the player he is. We've tied down the likes of VDV, Modric and bale so why don't we sign and surround them with pure quality which would make it Hard for them to leave in the future. The ambitions are big at spurs.
Scouts have been tied up for like a year now watching the above names.
I would also like to say, Hulk is a player people mention regularly on this page. He is a quality player however, is not in our plans. A very lazy player who performs 1 in 3 games. No one can make there mind up about him.

Would defo love to see Corluka gone in the summer, very sluggish player and can't see what he would offer us with Walker and Naughton coming back to the team.
Real shake up in the summer, with many leaving but few coming in.

Out:
Pletikosa (Loan finish)
Alnwick (Championship team)
Woodgate (Released)
Bassong (Newcastle or French team)
Khumalo (Loaned out, never saw the point in him)
Hutton (Rangers)
Corluka (Don't actually care, just hope he doesn't stay)
O'Hara (Wolves)
Gio (Spain)
Jenas (Another prem team)
Bentley (Another prem team)
Pavlyuchenko (Russia or another prem team)
Crouch (Another prem team)
Keane (Another prem team

Possible Ins:
Given (Man City)
Walker (Loan finishes)
Naughton (Loan finishes)
Sakho (PSG)
Samba (Blackburn)
Parker (West Ham)
Chamberlain (Southampton)
Adam (Blackpool)
Gameiro (Lorient)
Forlan (Atletico)
Ba (West Ham)
Odemwingie (West Brom)
Falcao (Porto)

What you all think?
Asking your opinion too Ed
Wickham (Ipswich) {Ed003's Note -Quite a lot to disect there but I think a few will leave, as for Samba I'm not at all sure about him,I think you could find better, only my opinion}
