Look lads. Modric and Bale and under contract and we don't need the money. Unlike the worst team to ever win the European Champions league THFC is a viable business unlike certain other clubs beginning with "C"

So unless anyone offers really big bucks why would Levy sell now ? What would be the point.

I don't think Bale is ready yet, he is a great player but can be inconsistent. There are a lot of good players out there to be had not everyone wants to spend half a season sitting on the bench at Man U or City.

We need to splash the cash with purpose now and more imporatntly Harry and Mr Levy, please just for once can we try and do it now rather than later so we can get a settled squad for pre season.

We have been robbed by rubbish rules, poor refereeing and our own ineptitude in front of goal so now is not the time to throw all our toys out of the pram ! Now is the time for all the players and staff and fans to get behind this great club and show them that Spurs are in the top four to stay because we are right !

Chelsea won't ever win the Champions league again in most of your lifetimes, Arsenal are about to lose RVP, United have to rebuild, Liverpool are in a tough place and I am very hopeful that a certain Mr C who no speakka de english too good is on his way to the Bridge and there is an odds on chance RVP is goana leave the gooners.

Oh and dear Chels can't wait til your next visit to the Lane !

On the sky website it claims we are in the kwadwo asamoah? is this a realistic target and is he actually any good? i have seen him in one match and had bundles of pace and energy to burn, but is he really the calibre of player we need? and another midfielder? says to me that modric will leave, no less then 40 million though. are wants to stay but can't help thinking we will need another striker swell, more natural in front of goal. and get vertonghen in fast!
still optimistic for next season. no drogba and no vp. be hard for assnal and cheat ski next year!

Dream on spud..............

Agree5 Disagree5

Dream on ? I'm guessing this is still because we can demand over 40 m for modric .....
Truth be told gooner
He has a LONG contract we can demand whatever the hell we bloody well please if we dont want rid of him

But of course arsenal don't know whatomg contracts are
Nasri .... Cesc .... And now R v P

Probably why they are getting all their gloating in now actually because they know
That RVP is holding them in the top
Without him next year and without getting a good replacement .... Arsenal bets for 6th anyone ?

Agree4 Disagree2

Be lucky to get 6th with toon getting better and sunderland looking good under o'neil

Agree3 Disagree3

Oh dear bitter spuds at least chelsea have won the cl in there lifetime unlike you lot back to spursday nights for you

Agree5 Disagree3

....... Wow that's rich coming from a frakking gooner

Hi eds, love the site what's the latest on vertongen? (sorry about spelling)

is spurs still looking the most likely do you think?

COYS {Ed007's Note - Thanks. As far as I know it is just a choice between Spurs and Arsenal. I don't know enough about the situation to say who, and you might not like my guess :-)

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Hasn't vertoghen come out today and said that tottenham are the only English club he will join

Agree8 Disagree7

Above comment as much as I would love Jan V to spurs
Do players always say what they mean ?

I have just had lunch with a friend of mine who works in and around in agencies of which transfer talk is being negotiated. Not going to name the agency for obvious reasons. As a Spurs fan I was very nervous about the loss of a lot of our best players, but
Here is the some truth to helps us poor spurs fans smile again.
Modric - it will take a serious bid for Levy to sell him so probably not going anywhere. Levy will want minimum £40m plus player to let him go.
Bale - not going anywhere for at least another season.
ADE - at the moment in loggerheads negotiating a permanent contract (not new news but another confirmation)
VDV - he wants to stay with us as he is very settled in London.
Defoe - has stated that he wants to stay and will. The only thing that worries me is if Levy gets a bid for £15m then he might sell him.
Walker - going nowhere
BAE - possible move to Italy.
Gomez - either Brazil or Holland
Ins
Hazard - if anyone is wondering if this is going to happen just stop dreaming.
Damiao - this is a story that has been built up and up but the truth is Italy is his favoured destination - but saying that, he does like the Spurs outfit.
Vertonghan - absolute definite
Also I slagged off a message about Hulk coming to Spurs, this actually could be a possibility - sorry to whoever a said dream on to!
Huntelaar - this is actually the biggest name we can possibly get - VDV has spoken to him and said join and there has been a lot of conversations with Schalke since March (apparently)

Anyway, I hope this helps, I am not usually one to write an essay on here but certainly feel that this has some backbone to what I have been told by someone in the know. Your thoughts will be gratefully recieved unless your an Arsenal fan then DO ONE!

Good post although i think 40m and a player is crazy thinking by Levy. hope you're right about it though as no one will pay that. Agreed Gooners get off our site

COYS

Agree4 Disagree2

What a load of rubbish, defoe wants playing time has come out and said so, Modric will be off, VDV stated this weeks ago so old news, walker never going to move after he's first season, Ade stated this on twitter so again old news, Bale no one really knows if a real madrid or Barca come knocking do you really think he will stay, gomez who cares, Ventonghan was looking good but is now talking about Milan so thats Tottenham, Milan and Arsenal he would have loved to played for when each club was interested and Huntelaar didnt we hear the same rumour last year and the one before.

you know nothing you have no source so just write this is my opinion rather then pretending to have a inside source which you cant name

Agree4 Disagree3

Huntelaar,Vertonghan,dembele and adam johnson please would be well happy then Mr Levy

Agree4 Disagree4

Cheers pal, Damiao, Ade and Vertoghen would make me very happy and if we can keep Bale and buy a top keeper then next season no doubt we will be stronger. COYS!

Jimmy

Agree9 Disagree2

Hello mate, While i am an eternal optimist i think that Modric was already gone last season and that it was agreed then, I agree that Bale and Ade will be with Spurs next year and that Vertonghen is a done deal. Judgement is still reserved on the Huntelaar one my old chum. Thanks for trying to lift our spirits though. COYS FOHR!!

Agree1 Disagree1

Well, in all fairness, If this another load of bull by a cyber t*t its a very well written and articulate load of bull. That makes me, for once, want to actually believe that there really is somebody here ITK...........hopefully.
Super Y*d

Agree0 Disagree1

The vertonghen to moan story was an interview dated feb 2011. This had been proved on vital spurs. Just journo's raking up old stories.
I tell you wot, if he does join, after weekend we have just had and still staying we are his preferred choice, then he is already a WHL legend in my eyes

COYS

Agree0 Disagree1

'Milan' not moan lol

Agree1 Disagree0

Absolute rubbish, who did you have lunch with? the Oracle !

Agree3 Disagree0

Well I think one or two people took my post the wrong way. It was all information that was given to me. So I thought I would share. To the grumpy old fart 8 above this one - it is not bull s**t simple information that was past to me. If you dont like it well just stop moaning. The other thing about old news MATE is that when it re occurs it can change the outcome to positive news. If this is rumours from last year then Levy must have been working for 12 months to make things happen, how do you think Ronaldo moved to Real Madrid... it wasnt done over night! - yes the Adebuyor info was old the and rumours starting with Huntelaar last season is true yes, so well done for stating the obvious. All I am doing like any other Spurs fan on here is just passing information so dont get your nickers in a twist. For the rest of you please more comments as I would love to hear what everyone has heard and what they think are the right plans for next year. Thats why the boys created this site yeah?
COYS

Agree2 Disagree1

Would like to see Damaio who may still come if we act now. Ba from newcastle, vertoghen and berba back and not ade. Need a LB to fight for place with BAE too and another right sided player to compete with lennon...adam johnson maybe..bring in al habsi from wigan to fight friedel for gk spot.

Agree2 Disagree2

Why would Ba go to Spurs?

Agree1 Disagree0

21 May 2012 13:48:23
Bale going to Real Madrid
Modric to Man Utd
VDVaart going to Chelsea

Cost of Chelseas win I am afraid - I was told it was possible now confirmed probable - bids tabled

In: Junior Hoillet, Fellani & still being told Kaka but that might be out now so who knows

maybe a year of consolidation is best we can hope for now - Harry will sort it

Adebayor has just put on twitter that he enjoyed his time at tottenham and he is working hard with the chairman for a permanent switch. As much as i see this as a positive move for tottenham i believe we need back up for ade as defoe may leave through lack of football. Luka i feel has kicked his last ball for spurs and i would like to see spurs collect a extremely substantial sum for are star man. I have a season ticket at the lane and he along with scott parker is what makes the team tick, we need to bring in a central midfielder with creativity to go along side parker. I dont know what you guys think but i believe bringing back berbatov wouldnt be a bad move for the club, he has a lot to make up to the fans but hopefully that will give him motivation along with the reason he hasnt played any real football lately. I see berbatov and adebayor forging a great understanding for the spurs next season! we also need to improve on various other departments. Such as a world class CB. as much as i love lennon i feel because of his injuries we could do with another young winger with potential, someone like adam johnson would fit in at tottenham i believe. Anyway if you dont agree with anything i have said i would love to read your ideas!
COYSSS!!!

Believable7 Unbelievable3

Berbatov was class but too old now, Modric deserves to show how good he is at a bigger club, Defoe should be given a starting place and Adebayor pants

ou812

Agree4 Disagree10

He said exactly the same thing at Arsenal and then a couple of days later he was hinting at a move to AC Milan.

Agree5 Disagree3

Ou812
What do you mean Modric deserves a chance at a bigger club??
Not sure Mr Levy held a gun to his head and made him sign a 6 year contract.
If he and along with others pulled his finger out for the 11 games where we was rubbish he may well of been playing CL football with spurs.

Agree6 Disagree1

I would give berba another go over ade. Got more to his game and used regular would score more goals. Better finisher.

Agree4 Disagree5

I would take Ade and another striker. If Modric does leave then we should replace him with a creative midfielder who can get us 9/10 goals a season.
Ade + Damiao?, Dembele, Vertonghen and Maarten Stekelenburg.

Jermain

Agree5 Disagree2

If what Vertonghen is saying then he has already earned my respect. Spurs legend in the making.

Jimmy

Agree10 Disagree1

Modric class act could have just sulked and refused to play but just got on with it played well, we didnt make it to CL cos HARRY didnt go for it against the worst team in league Aston Villa brought defensive midfielder when we needed a goal.Contracts are worthless which is a pity with Modric but fantastic when involves rasiak/gilberto/ghaly and postiga

ou812

Agree1 Disagree2

Thats what i love about us spurs fans ,berbotov why he wanted out why you want him back also not good enough for fergie and also some mentioned ask yourselves why we finished fourth in any season apart from this due to ruskies would be progress got to kick on no cast offs please

Agree1 Disagree0

If Luka leaves(most likely) I would like either Eriksen fron Ajax and if he goes Madrid then may a P/e involving Sahin, Xabi(unlikely) or Ozil/ Di Maria.

Luka Modric is the subject of a 35 million bid from Real Madrid.

Loïc Remy is set to sign for 17 million after the euros competition.MoleMan..

Not trying to stir the port but since the chelsea win, a few european clubs now feel that they can open talks with the club on a few players.

the milan duo, juventus, madrid, city, malaga, psg, chelsea are all going to line up bids for players.

the price tags are the only hope of keeping the players. with modric and bale priced about 40 mill each.

that being said it seems a few players are going to force their way out.

bale it seems is wanted by milan, along with arsenals alex song.

private rye

Believable1 Unbelievable4

We need to do what we do best forget big names discover the talent like we did with bale modric walker sandro. The trick is not in trying to do a city or chavski and buy big names but to buy the potential big names. In levy we trust. Just dont leave it to HR.

Agree6 Disagree2

You wont believe who i have just seen being shown aroundwhite hart lane.......brand new cleaner they reckon she is the elite in her field of expertise. So shove that in your pipe chelsea.

Agree6 Disagree0

Discovered talent like Modric?! he cost 16.5 mill!

Agree3 Disagree0

And he's now worth about 40 therefore a small price to pay!

Agree0 Disagree2

Was modric the player everyone wanted when we brought him no. Therefore point made.
