THAT BRAZILIAN YOU LOT HAVE BEEN POSTING ABOUT FOR YEARS ON HERE IS ON HIS WAY TO US..

MALAGA GOONER

Believable0 Unbelievable12

Get to a lot of home games do you Malaga!! Probably only ever seen the library on telly

Agree2 Disagree1

In your dreams , Arse only offered 15 mill so no hope ! Been kicked off your site again for spouting to much bullsh**e again have we ?? Not even your fellow gooners listen to your trash , its just a shame we have too . Still , like your team and their purchases so far , good for a laugh !
Davo

Agree1 Disagree2

It's the only brazilian you will ever see Malaga

Agree4 Disagree1

LOL we have been posting about him for years haven't we. I'm hoping this gooner is telling the truth.

Naz

Agree0 Disagree2

Ed's do you know if this Damieo deal is on or off? I keep reading loads of different rumours that it's on then others say not happening and then on again. {Ed008's Note - I got the impression Internacional didn't want to sell till at least 2013 all these reports of Damiao have been made by so called Twitter "agents" I don't believe its true. They don't need to sell having sold Oscar recently don't expect Damiao to be a Spurs player this summer.

Agree1 Disagree0

Can somebody remove Malaga gooner from the site,
It would be much appreciated

Agree9 Disagree0

Im an Arsenal fan and MALAGA GOONER annoys me with his stupid comments in the Spurs rumours site.

Agree5 Disagree0

I'm thinking that Malaga Gooner was a Santi fan that followed his favorite player out of administration....

Agree2 Disagree0

Can we ban people on this? I'd vote for him being banned. He makes pinky comparatively bearable!!

Steed {Ed008's Note - Maybe your demand might come true...

Agree5 Disagree0

Ed please ban him from the Arsenal site to please :) .....and davo, our purchases a good for a laugh? Seen cazorla mate, dont make urself look stupid {Ed008's Note -Can't just ban someone like that..

Agree0 Disagree0

You made yourself look stupid when you signed podolski,chamakh,giroud and gervinho.
Because you feed your players to the Manchester area, they will prob all end up at Bolton
Cazorla looks good tho, so he will be at a Manchester club next season.

Agree2 Disagree0

Malaga Gooner.....Too much Spanish sunshine pal,you are off your "carrito"

Agree0 Disagree1

So Giroud and Podolski have only played one game and already they're crap?

You need to stop being so biased and concentrate on Thursday night football.

I still believe we will sign Sturbridge as a 4th striker who can also play an attacking midfielder

Good relationship with AVB and also fallen down pecking order at chelskie

Gone quiet but reckon its our 4th striker

NorthernSpur

Believable2 Unbelievable3

No please not . Just not good enough for us , would rather let Kane take his chance !
Davo

Agree3 Disagree5

I think we might bid for clint Dempsey.
Only my option tho. No sources lol

Agree1 Disagree3

Why would he want to play for us when he has CL football and them west london lot have he has played as a sub in all 3 of there games

Agree0 Disagree2

With AVB stating in his interview (SSN & Talksport) that he is happy with ADE, JD and Kane, I would be very worried. Ade loses interest through the season but is excellent when he commits 100%, JD is not that LONE striker but an excellent option and Kane is not a proven player at this level yet and IMO won't ever be..(sorry).

We desperately need another Quality proven striker and maybe one that not only plays well as a lone striker but also one that can play with a partner.

To me I believe that Klaas-Jan Huntelaar would be the better option out of all the players that we are linked too..and the cheaper one at that mr DL....

Agree3 Disagree1

"Why would he want to play for us when he has CL football and them west london lot have he has played as a sub in all 3 of there games"

errr what ? can you try that again.
how does dempsey have cl football ?
shorty

Agree1 Disagree0

If we don't get another striker in we are in trouble. Every time Ade is out we'll be toothless away and against top teams and need another option that can lead the line. It will be ridiculous if we go with those three.

Agree3 Disagree0

I'd prefer see Coulibaly given a chance rather than using Kane or buying someone like Sturridge

Agree5 Disagree1

Does anyone actually watch the reserves on a regular basis...

Hearing lots of good things about Coulibally but never really seen him week in week out...

Opinions please as he sounds more like the kind of player we need breaking into the first team over Kane.

NorthernSpur

Agree1 Disagree0

Coulibaly is a more influential player, can hold the ball well and given time would IMO be able to play as a lone striker. Kane is very good at the lower level IMO and wastes more chances that Coulibaly...sorry if my spelling is bad :-) i'm uneducated you know :-)

Agree1 Disagree0

Dont shoot me down guys, but Damiaos wiki page shows him as a Spurs player, apparently signed today for undisclosed fee

Glenn {Ed041's Note - that doesnt matter anyone can edit wiki! i could put me as a spurs player if i wanted

Believable1 Unbelievable4

Just checked no reference to spurs at all

Agree3 Disagree2

What page are you looking at? I certainly can't see that. OR is it you want to see how many Spurs fans will look at the wiki page? even tho its NOT showing him playing for Spurs but International....

Agree3 Disagree2

No it doesn't

Agree2 Disagree3

He is still down as playing for Internacional... Glenn, sorry mate but you are; Todays MUPPET !!!!!

Agree5 Disagree3

Errrr it does say he plays for Tottenham and wears the number 9 shirt ....! Granted it could be rubbish but it does show this on the mobile site ....

Skidz14

Agree1 Disagree0

Glenn is right he is down as a spurs player....look at his profile on the right. Muppet. However, ed is right, anyone can update wiki.

Rufus

Agree2 Disagree0

Current club down as Tottenham on wiki page but doesnt mean a thing as ed said
ou812

Agree1 Disagree0

Thanks to those who have also seen the Wiki page, I did say he has aparently signed, ive not gone out like the others saying HE will sign or go on about having connections with the club, just letting people know what his page says, no reason to go calling me a muppet

Glenn

Agree2 Disagree0

I apologise there then Glenn, it's just I call everyone a Muppet when its wrong... no hard feelings..:-)

Agree0 Disagree0

Just left white heart lane with my two sons- just had a stadium tour. When we left we saw a number of photographers chasing after Eduardo. We also heard that aanother Brazilian striker was meant to be signing on Friday from an official at the club- he said the player signing was based in Russia but that's all he could say.....who could this be

Believable0 Unbelievable6

Willian.... Shaktar Donesk

Agree3 Disagree2

Can't even spell our stadium correctly.

Agree7 Disagree1

The only one I can think of is Vagner Love.

Agree0 Disagree2

It must be horrible having to lie. Where is White HEART Lane by the way?

Agree2 Disagree1

If you had the stadium tour ( which finished quite late I might add), then you must be a spurs fan
So why are you spelling our stadium name wrong?
Fool.

Agree4 Disagree0

The ex-arsenal Eduardo?

Agree1 Disagree2

Ive been on a stadium tour before Harry left no club official says anything even when i primed him about Harry going, this was on the same Wednesday as harry getting the sack and i had already placed a bet on AVB at 20-1 for next manager from inside info

Agree1 Disagree1

Was hoping for doumbia ... But I think he's ivorioan

Agree1 Disagree0

Shaktar is a ukranian club not russian! person

Agree2 Disagree0

THERS A STRIKER CALLED WILLIAN FROM SPARTAK MOSKOW I THINK HE IS CLASS LETS HOPE ITS HIM {Ed008's Note - Erm I think you mean Wellington and Willian plays for Shaktar Donetsk.

Agree0 Disagree0

We won't sign another striker but that player you're thinking of would be Dzagoev

Ed041 re Fryers, a tribunal will set the amount of compensation and not Man Utd themselves.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

To late he has gone to Standard Liege on a two year contract

Agree2 Disagree1

I know zeki personnaly, he's going belgium

Agree4 Disagree3

Is that like a brazilian?
b/spur

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Aug 2012 17:26:58
Ed any truth on the following:
Standard liege have signed Fryers?

please tell me its not true

Haymaker {Ed041's Note - i seen that on a website alrite not sure to be honest only seen it in one place but if its true reason why we didnt sign him cud be cause man utd were looking for to much compensation.

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Just spotted it too hope it's not true

Agree1 Disagree1

Its on Wikipedia, we couldn't agree compensation with Utd so he's signed a 2 year deal with Standard Liege.

Agree0 Disagree1

Yep its true. signed 2 year deal..source standard liege website...

Agree1 Disagree0

What surely it couldnt be more than 5. evem.thatbis good for a promising young player. will triple in value in 3 years.

When the sky sports news reporter asked AVB bout tim sherwood being at the malaga game to watch isco he says n i quote " i didnt know that,i didnt know that" sumtin is up there and the willian thing he answers were like he cudnt say to much and not telling anything something is goin on behind the scenes

Believable5 Unbelievable2

IS THAT YOU SHERLOCK ? lol better than Harry running his mouth off to anybody who would listen.
shorty

Agree6 Disagree1

Awful spelling!

Agree6 Disagree1

You can read it can't you! Why bother to even post about his spelling?

Agree3 Disagree4

Don't believe a word avb says, he dont tell the truth very often!

Agree0 Disagree0

THFC are back in for Joao Moutinho and made a fresh bid this morning…
Originally ended interest in July after being quoted £30 mill

Believable2 Unbelievable8

23 Aug 2012 16:43:53
Joao moutinho deal back on!! Might mean van der vaart to leave though? Joao would be a great signing. London evening standard - source

Believable1 Unbelievable6

I don't believe you but thank you for leaving a source! We shal see :)

McYid

Agree3 Disagree2

I think we are better off goin for isco

Agree2 Disagree0

23 Aug 2012 14:44:04
AVB interview just been on and he said that Damaio not happening and the striker situation is finished. He did not directly say no to willian so i expect that but if you are to take the interview as the truth we will not be buying Damaio or any other striker for that matter!
Unless we are not making it public we are in talks with Damaio, i am sure people just post rubbish on here. I know it is a rumours page but the person who posted it was done has just plucked it from thin air!
Slightly concerned again!
Dan84

Believable8 Unbelievable1

So where did you see the interview then? Liar

Agree0 Disagree10

I said this weeks ago, the AVB plays its 1 up top with 2 wide men. He's always said he's going with 3 strikers. The damiao deal isn't happening.

Wattspurs

Agree4 Disagree3

Course they won't go public with it until its all official. They don't want Milan cominig in or barca and matching our bid and terms. If that happened who do you think he would choose. Levy is plain clever top secret. Mission leandro

Agree1 Disagree2

Its true AVB said today at lunch time that he isnt bringing any more strikers to spurs but was sketchy on the willian talk...wilian deal will happern...looks like damio wont

LEDLY SHERINGHAM

Agree2 Disagree1

The interview was on TV! Moron. Check before you call someone a "liar"

Agree6 Disagree0

Interview on Sky Sports, looks like just willian and thats it. Very disappointing, really hope levy has something up his sleeve. Please, Please gives us a big name to shout about

Stuaikman

Agree2 Disagree1

It true I just read the article on the metro news app
Avb saying just that!!

Agree1 Disagree0

The interview was on SSN

Agree1 Disagree0

The interview was to espn check spurs news now its all over it

Agree0 Disagree0

So you've never heard of a rotation system then ? one big strike up front isnt enough we all know that . defo is a good finisher but cant hold that ball up so we do need another striker ... watch this space as we will get another before dead line day who that is ????

Agree3 Disagree0

Makes a difference from Harry tell all and sundry who we are looking at.

Agree0 Disagree0

Spurs are unable to agree a fee for willan typical levy offering small fee which will alert other club to his availabilty

Agree0 Disagree1

AVB likes to play with one striker and two wingers playin behind him..avb will see defoe,adebayor and kane as good enough strikers for what he wants 2 play.personally i think we need another striker but i ent avb...what ever he chooses to do i will support...

Agree2 Disagree0

Does the person calling me a liar feel stupid enough yet.

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Aug 2012 14:32:17
If the runours are true and we go for isco id be delighted he looks total class a mixture of cazorla and nasri type of player looks brill can only get better,the willian deal i think will depend on price there looking 20 mill and we have had two bids rejected already so it will be a case of we either pay for him the money they want if not shaktar wont sell o id say isco is our plan B.

Believable4 Unbelievable1

ISCO IS SIIIIIIIIIIICK BLOOD...

23 Aug 2012 12:43:40
Dawson to saty at spurs...atleast till december

Believable6 Unbelievable1

Hope so

Agree3 Disagree1

Afraid not, this is going to happen this window. Loyalty bonus just holding it up.

Agree3 Disagree1

From what I heard its both a loyality bonus and also the still unresolved dispute around the CL bonus, or should I say the finishing 4th bonus.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Aug 2012 12:18:35
Savage said it, it's official Arsernal are no longer a big club!!

If we get Isco, Damiao and Willian :o; My life will be perfect

Believable9 Unbelievable1

Coudnt agree more...i didnt think we would sign these 3 but with willian looking like he will join us and with sherwood watching isco in his last game,talks with damio on going,things look really good for us ..IN LEVY WE TRUST
DAPZ

Agree5 Disagree1

Surely it's one from Willian and Isco, pretty similar players who can play wide or central in the attacking midfield 3.

Agree0 Disagree0

Those 3 come off and al give levy and AVB a double hand job.
Barry

Agree5 Disagree0

It wouldnt be perfect, you would still be a spud!

Agree2 Disagree5

Typical gooner, worrying about spurs more than your own club, getting worried about the players we could be getting? Silly gooner

Agree3 Disagree2

I look at saucy girls all day long, dont mean Im getting any....

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Aug 2012 11:34:51
Damiao done. 4 year deal 80,000 a week. 25 million rising to 32 million in add on fees on appearances and goals scored Levy masterstroke. Premiership watch out. It took 2 years to make a big signing but boy will it be worth the wait. Spurs no.9 yeeesssss. COYS

Believable7 Unbelievable11

Source? Proof?

NorthernSpur

Agree5 Disagree0

How'd you know this?

I have also said a few times like the oracle about damieo but still not sure i can see it happening it would be amazing though?

JON1979

Agree2 Disagree0

Ed, has damiao signed? any new information on the matter? {Ed008's Note - I can neither confirm or deny...

Agree0 Disagree0

Hope so.. Where did you hear abuout this? would be an Immense signing and a signal of real intent by both Levy and AVB.
Dan1882

Agree2 Disagree0

Why would you not say your source if you are so sure?

Agree1 Disagree0

SOURCE!!! Why does nobody put the source of their post in!!

Agree1 Disagree0

U best b right boy desperate to get him

Agree1 Disagree0

How can u know so much about this deal? The lengths people go to for attention....

Rufus

Agree1 Disagree1

Were is your proof?

Agree0 Disagree0

And after all these posts, still no say so on source....gooner trolling for sure....
yid mark

Agree0 Disagree0

Adebayor hasn't got the 9 shirt. So hopefully he's right... Chances are he's not.

Agree2 Disagree0

Contracts were faxed from w.h.l last night signed by Daniel levy awaiting leandros signature. They have returned today signed,subject to passing a medical scheduled as far as I know for Monday evening. How do I know? I know the person who handed the fax to Daniel levy himself. Apparently the smile on his face was that big it looked sore. I'm so excited this is going to be massive klinnsman esc.

Agree0 Disagree1

I've heard figures around these amounts before. Can't remember where either a website or on this thread.

I so hope we get him but this could be at the expense of Van de Vaart. Be warned.

The Rabbit

Agree0 Disagree0

Forgot to add before you ask how do I know the person who handed him the signed contract I work at fuglers We have a lot of dealings with the club. Usually I can't speak about stuff cause I could loose my job but this is worth it. Leandro damiao tottenhams

Agree0 Disagree2

Bollox

Rufus

Agree1 Disagree0

Well that smells like rubbish

Agree1 Disagree0

What a load of crap, seriously. No way we will pay 25m with add ons for Leandro, he is not worth that and Levy would NO WAY IN HELL pay that. source........previous transfer windows and we don't have the money.

Agree3 Disagree1

Funny how the guy spouting the contract crap above, didn't leave a sign off name.
Funny that.
Damaio will not be coming to spurs.
I would bet my mortgage on it.

COYMFS

Agree3 Disagree0

I am contrcted to repair and maintain the fax machines at spurs and had a call out today... I have a full history of what has been sent and received plus can confirm there were only 2 faxes today. The first was a special order for the Spurs shop from some guy at fuglers and was for Ladies spurs bra and panties (size: Large Male) and the second was a signed contract.....

I can confirm Rocket Ronny Rosenthal has been locked in boot camp all summer and is back baby!!

I'm so excited this is going to be even massiver klinnsman esc.

We have been favourites to sign Thomas Muller all transfer window but have not heard anything linking him to us, would be a great signing. Any news? {Ed008's Note - Spurs were never favourties for Muller.

VDV out, Willian In ??

Reports that we are in talks with Shaktar at the moment, Now dont get me wrong i love VDV but fitness is a big issue with him and could see this as a good bit of business for us.

Believable4 Unbelievable2

Has all that damiao talk from last night gone anywhere?

Believable2 Unbelievable0

Van der Vaart's return to HSV as good as certain, according to "Telegraaf". Reportedly only a matter of the fee. THFC want 12m Euro

Believable2 Unbelievable3

Surely not, this would be a bit out of the blue

Agree2 Disagree0

I will be gutted if VDV leaves, total footballer!

Agree5 Disagree1

Realy?!?!, even if we signed wilian and damaio, I still couldn't imagine us selling VDV, especially for 12m euro (Which is about £9m) after we just sold Daws for around £10m. Plus would we really sell 2 of our most productive players in him and Modrat in one transfer window.

THFC4EVER

Agree4 Disagree0

I have suspected all summer that VDV would head to Germany. His wife works there full time and despite his ability I suspect he is a little slow for AVB not to mention seem to struggle to play a full 90 minutes for whatever reason.

Agree2 Disagree0

23 Aug 2012 08:09:11
Apparently Mourinho doesn't care who Sahin goes out on loan to, was thinking we should try and make a seasons long loan part of the Modric deal so we get 1st choice on him should he be sold next season. Very good young player. {Ed008's Note -He's pretty much agreed a move to Arsenal.

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Some articles are reporting the Sahin-Arsenal deal as dead in the water, leaving the door open for Liverpool, and yep, you guessed, Spurs! The article in question suggested Sahin may well feature as a makeweight in the Modders deal.... Perhaps there is some truth in the VdV rumours after all....?

Agree0 Disagree1

He has already stated that he does NOT want to join you!! haha

Agree2 Disagree2

And from the look of it , he doesnt want to join you either !

23 Aug 2012 01:05:06
I've been looking around for when Willian's contract expires at Shakhtar. Wiki says he signed a 5 year deal on 23rd of August 2007, meaning his contract runs out today. The other date i got was 30th of June 2014. Do any of the eds know anything about this? {Ed008's Note - It's 2014

Believable2 Unbelievable0

23 Aug 2012 00:48:38
Further to what I posted earlier, a Brazilian striker is signing my source is a big time agent although not involved in deal said the rumour is its a big name from the Olympic team , as everyone has said looks like we might get leandro after all, further movements mentioned to me by said agent is we have lined striker from Dortmund as 2nd choice we will see, I asked about gk and was told we are after butland still trying to agree fee with his club, here's hoping something big happens, just wanted to say cheers Dawson wish you luck good player hope this works for him shame! Hope AVB keeps the huddle available for second half of season after loan

BUNNYDAYID

Believable6 Unbelievable2

Am i the only spurs fan who doesnt want butland?i know hes young but makes mistakes often and we could sign better then him..he may come good but we cant risk it

DAPZ

Agree2 Disagree0

Prefer Fraser Forster to Butland every time

Agree0 Disagree1

Fraser Forster is overrated, has nothing to do in the spl as celtic's defence is barely touched. Would like us to look at Akinfeev

Whys Levy not even considering Lewandowski? Hes a class act and still young! anyone else think we should go for him or just me?

Haymaker

Believable11 Unbelievable2

I dont see why a player would move from Dortmund to Tottenham. Dortmund have Champions League football and are the Bundesliga Champions aswell as having one of the most exciting squads in Europe, I can see him moving this summer, but to a club which is a step up, not down. {Ed008's Note - He's hasn't signed a new contract that was offered to him though...

Agree3 Disagree2

Mostly because Dortmund are refusing to speak to anyone regarding him!

Agree0 Disagree1

Dortmund said they will rebuff any offers made for him.

ANT

Agree1 Disagree0

I don't think you understand the Premier League is the best in the world, granted dortmund have done well but you can't say that spurs is a step down, play great football, good wages! Tottenham, Arsenal and City play the most exciting football in the premiership! Anyone who disagrees obviously never watched spurs last season!

Agree4 Disagree1

How do you Levy's not considering him?! The truth is none of us know exactly what's going on behind the scenes. The only info have to go on is from unreliable ITK's and equally unreliable press!

Agree1 Disagree0
