DANTHEHOTSPURMAN

Believable8 Unbelievable21

We desperately need strikers but he ain't worth no where near 29m

Agree0 Disagree0

More rollocks from Arry not capable of parting with that sort of money , small club mentality
Davo

Agree0 Disagree0

Eh... I'm not to excited about Llorente now ... I think I would rather Adebayor ...

Agree0 Disagree0

29m? you sure, we wouldnt pay that for him.18-20m max

Agree0 Disagree0

His class kinda like Torres from 3 years ago. Get in there Arry

Agree0 Disagree0

This rumour has been about all summer ffs

Agree0 Disagree0

Where the hell are we getting £28m from when we cant sign any of our targets As usual tight fisted Levy is playing the waiting game just like last season when we signed VDV Cmon Levy please show us the colour of your money

Agree0 Disagree0

Did anyone c the mention on BBC gossip section about spurs failing in bids with A. Young, Downing and Phil Jones. Mata also saying he turned down spurs. Seems like we have been trying but wages or aspiration have been a barrier??

Top 4 Wannabe

Believable11 Unbelievable3

Typical bulls**t by Arry and Levy to keep the supporters quiet Davo

Agree0 Disagree0

Bit like me asking if elle mcpherson,kate winslett,naomi campbell,beyonce and pippa with the cute arse if they'd like a night out with me.they'd all refuse,but hey,i tried
never had a cats chance in hell

Agree0 Disagree0

We have bin trying = yes but

if u notice all the transfers? the buying club has spent good amount to get their man.
all four transfers have bin big money moves as ..todays world its either u pay the prize n get ur man or u wont

HARRY N LEVY DONT DEAL LIKE THAT we simply look for bargain or swap deals n thats y we loose in bidding war

now i know we cant compete city ,chelsea or even pool now with money but at least ....a striker ?

we should have gone upfront n bite the bullet ,paid the money n get our man ..had we done this last year we would have been in champions league n hence it would have balanced the money spent

Agree0 Disagree0

no wonder modric wants to ship- out. every one knows last january we needed 2 new strikers. same old same old. we will always be the nearly team. so much gossip. no signings. y we go to the lane pay our money and what are we getting in return. a manager who plays someone who is ill. strikers who couldent hit a cowes arse with a banjo. what have we got to look forward to gthe promise of new signings just like january. roll on next season a new boss hopefully and some decent forwards

Believable8 Unbelievable3

About time , beginning to wonder if I was the only one with this belief About time the club was honest with us
Davo

Agree0 Disagree0

I am a Rangers fan but always had a soft spot for Spurs, just curious as to who u's would like to see replace Harry as manager? Ramos, Santini came with huge reputations and great records but were a big dissapointment. What about David Moyes, done wonders at Everton with buttons.

Agree0 Disagree0

Any spurs fan that wants harry out,
truly is deluded.More progress has been made in the short time Redknaap has been with us,than in the last 20years.
Get real fools

On 'the rad'? is that what the world has come to, the rad... make an effort mate

Agree0 Disagree0

Make an effort mate?

Agree0 Disagree0

BERBS is coming back. i know this.

Agree0 Disagree0

Berbatov does not want to come back as it would be a step down I personally think he'll sit on the bench and top the bank up

Agree0 Disagree0

Mate i'm not the 1 who posted earlier but i'm a spurs geek thats why we're on here so dont this is a rumour site not fight club. enjoy the site and if you aint got anything worth listening to..........

Agree0 Disagree0

Out

Modric - £25m + Sturridge
Bentley - £3.5m
Hutton - £4.5m
Palacios - £8m
Crouch - £9m
Gio - £5m

Gone

Keane - £4.5m
O'Hara - £5m
Woodgate

That's just under £65million in plus a decent young striker who's scored a few Prem goals already. Wages cut by up to £250k a week or more (after paying Sturridge).

Diarra in for about £9m, Ade paid a £6-7m sign on fee then paid lesser salary. Still around £50million left and nearly £100k per week saved vs current budget.

Get it done ffs, we don't have any other realistic targets and the players mentioned to leave are not any better than what we've got (except Modric but what's the point if he's going to be that much aggro).

Other realistic targets; Hoillet, Kevin Davies, maybe Benayoun chucked in for a few less quid on the Modric deal. Not sure CB is really a priority, got Daws, Gallas, Kaboul, Bassong, Ledley and Charlie/Hudd at a real push.

Would love Berbs back but can't see it. {Ed008's Note - Was gonna say great list until you mentioned Benayoun as part of the Modric deal useless player.

Believable4 Unbelievable8

Sturrridge is going nowhere and will be first choice this year.
Benayoun is a possiblity and despite the comments above is a very uesful squad player for around £2/3m.
He has looked good in pre season with Chelsea so he would be a decent acquisition.

Agree0 Disagree0

You only 2half mill for keane the rest you have,nt sold except o,hara heard joe cole going to teaming up with arry

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree with you Ed , was happy until poster started smoking the mushrooms and mentioned benny
Davo

Agree0 Disagree0

Chelsea still sticking by Torres ahead of Drogba and just signed Lukaku so Sturridge isn't going to be guaranteed the bench let alone a start.
Ed, i don't rate Benayoun but I think
it would be a typical Harry move like
Piennar, if shifting out a few midfielders he'll want at least a couple back in.
Keane deal is £2.5m up front but then rises so I heard - yes I know the others aren't sold hence 'out' and 'gone'

Agree0 Disagree0

So you have seven and a half mill then? now draw up a shopping list...

Agree0 Disagree0

Not overly excited by adebayor or diarra to be honest, Really hoped that levy and harry could see what the lack of a quality front man cost us 4th place last season getting seriously about the ambition of Levy and think harry should go now not when England come knocking. No decnt strikers, a manager who is tacticaly inept and a chairman whos more intrested in the stadium than the league position, welcome to tottenham hotspur plc.

Believable10 Unbelievable3

Last nite was the worst tactical decisions I've seen Harry make The whole team looked lost apart from brads Shocking game.

Agree0 Disagree0

Stop moaning mug,playing best football you have ever seen at spurs. unless you are 80

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah really inept.

4th and 5th Finishes
Champions league quarter finals

jog on Chelsea boy

Agree0 Disagree0

What position were we in when Redknapp arrived? and where are we now? Your a complete idiot. This club owes Harry a lot and he deserves more than a few chances.

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes thats true , we do owe Arry a lot
But no one can afford to stand still and Arry is proving he is a small club manager , inept at tactical awareness and a total lack of balls when it comes to dealing with the star players . This is the main reason he wants to fill the team with his ex pets and relations , so they all just get on with the job without him having to make too much effort or raise his voice
Davo

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree that harry is a small club type of manager but he has done wonders for are club and has made us who we are.but i dont think we need to worry or be negative about this season.de will be a great signin even if he was a gooner...and diarra is a very decent player...a center bak and one more striker should sort us out

Agree0 Disagree0

Anyone else getting the feeling that Levy isn't going to twig that we need to up our wage limit? What is it, £65k, £75k - fair enough, keep a cap but work with inflation As for yesterday's performance, where's the belief? Vander and Gareth looking lost out there. The only ones with any composure were Benny (never thought I'd say that) and Brad. Kaboul was rock solid but couldn't pass, Niko is clearly not a central Midfielder and Lennon's going to let that mistake screw with him for a while.

And somebody get Jermaine some goals so he can start passing the ball again.

Ins:
Adebayor FREE
Diarra 8.5m
Barton FREE
Parker 5m
Cahill 14m
Marin 11m

and the best news, once Modric goes, is the signing of IKER MUNIAIN from Bilbao. Expect the fee to be around 12-14m upfront, with add-ons related to CL qualification

Outs:
Modric 35m
Crouch 4m
Palacios 5m
Kranjcar 3m
Hutton 4m
dos Santos 6m
Bentley 2.5m

That's all I know for now, but there might be more to come. Expect some movement by Thursday

Believable6 Unbelievable19

Are you on something? How do you know? Are you Harry? Marin for £11M? Why would cahill come to us when CL teams are in for him? Adebayor will only come to us on a load as we cannot afford his wages - HR has confirmed this Wake up man

Agree0 Disagree0

Another daydreamer your going to sign next to no one modric one of your best player on 50k a wk thats why no 1 has signed you clown

Agree0 Disagree0

I can't reveal my sources, but they're close to harry

marin for 11m, yes. bargain. wants to play in england

cahill will choose spurs because liverpool have pulled out, arsenal are signing scott dann, and chelsea won't guarantee him first team football and he wants to be an england regular

adebayor would be a free transfer, with huge sign on bonuses. no transfer fee paid to city, providing adebayor drops the future payments he would receive from staying with them. that's what's holding the deal up at the minute

Agree0 Disagree0

Crouch for 4m pretty much sums this 'rumor' up.

Agree0 Disagree0

1st of all ....guys please post here when ur drunk ....

there is no time left to sign this much players ..neither we have that much money

only a striker, diarra n may be a midfielder(only if modric leaves) are gonna come in

striker- adebayor on loan only we simply cant afford his wages
midfielder- diarra

except that .... if u want more just hope that modric leaves ...only then some swap+money can come in
... HARRYS PETS LIKE COLE,PARKER N ALL R ALSO HAVE GOOD CHANCE ,

OTHER THAN THIS ...ALL MARIN,HULK N ALL R RUBBISH STUFF

Agree0 Disagree0

Well it seems the line between reality and the world of Championship Manager have somewhat become mixed up for this poor deluded chap. What's more disturbing is he thinks he's Harry Redknapp's friend. Bet he also believes he was Napolean in a past life.

Agree0 Disagree0

Modric has gone to Chelsea for £30m + Daniel Sturridge coming the other way.

I feel this is the best of a bad situation, and will allow Levy to start the usual end of window merry go round. Let's hope that Crouch joins Stoke, Palacios to Real Madrid, Bentley & Jenas join Fulham and Pavlyuchenko finds some Russian money laundering club to give us our money back. The wage bill would be considerably lower when you add O'Hara, Keane and Woodgate.

Come on Levy, stop messing us all around. Ditch that mob and bring us Diarra, Adebayor, Damiao and Hulk.

Audere

Believable9 Unbelievable15

30+ sturridge, take it. Screw diarra, let's go for moussa sissoko. Still think we need a top goal keeper, center back, and striker. Forlan I would welcome. I'd also like to see Stephen Ireland at tottenham too if all else fails. In the end we should've done
25+ Anderson with Manchester united.

Agree0 Disagree0

The final chelsea offer is 30m plus benayoun,and the loan of sturridge for the season.
Tell chelsea no thanks,especially after seeing niko in the centre v man u

Agree0 Disagree0

I believe the deal which was actually accepted was £30 million+Kalou+Benayoun. 2 players who are either awful or injured. Sturridge said he wouldn't move even if the club tried to agree a swap deal. I think you have heard £30 million+Player somewhere and assumed it was Sturridge.

Agree0 Disagree0

Modric has not gone.......yet

Agree0 Disagree0

This is all rubbish How many times do u need to be told MODRIC IS NOT FOR SALE

Agree0 Disagree0

Time to let go of luka, he is not irreplaceable at all. But get a decent
Replacement because last night against the Manc scum kranjcar was awful at times, most notably the first twenty minutes.

Agree0 Disagree0

Please stop believing Modric is staying. Palacios, Crouch and Modric are all supposedly carrying minor strains, but interestingly only King, Gallas, Pienaar and Ranieri are receiving any treatment officially. Believe what you like, but Modric Crouch and Palacios are going for sure. Hutton and Bentley have been banished from the main team. The other players like Pavlyuchenko, Jenas and Krancjar may go depending on the success of the deals in.

Love them or hate them Diarra and Adebayor are coming. The only question is who else is on that list.

My choices:
Eden Hazzard
Damiao
Sturridge
Cahill
Huntelaar
