Typical Madrid tossers

So much for our special relationship! Can't say in surprised as it was only about Madrid getting what they wanted (Modric last year and Bale this). they've just omproved teonof our closes rivals - Can't see how we've benefited from it all.

Rumour that paperwork not done in time for Coentrao?

Talk that the Coentrao to United loan deal wasn't done in time.
Shame, I was hoping that this might be the deal that could have been the final piece of the puzzle for us. Don't get me wrong, I don't think that Coentrao is the finished article, but he's an upgrade on Rose, whose penchance for attack and lack of defensive nous exposed us for the goal on Sunday, and it's where we will be exploited all season. But anyway.
And can anyone tell me why a bid or an expression of interest in Baines wasn't even submitted.? Could have given us two English international fullbacks! Oh well, I don't seriously think any of us can have any gripes with the efforts and productivity during this window.

For a loan it would be fine.

The goal was Dawsons fault . 1 for not holding the line and playing Walcott onside. He does this all the time as he is worried about his lack of pace, and 2 for losing Girroud when he darted to the near post. We need Kaboul back Asap.

Dawson should be 4th choice. Chiriches is much much better.

Ausspur,
Whilst Dawson was not quick enough in tracking Giroud, it was Rose who was at fault, he was sucked inside and out of position and left Walcot in loads of space to pick out the ball, as previously said Rose is very poor defensively and we will be exploited time and again this season on the left.

THFC4EVER,
It should never have got to that point if Dawson held the line that Walker, Vertonghen and Rose kept, the fact that Dawson was 2 -3 yards towards our goal allowed Walcott to beat the offside trap. Watch it again mate. What happened from that point does not matter as Walcott should have been offside from the ball put through by Ramsey. Dawson does this in every game and plays players onside all the time. He's a loyal player and good captain but I think we have out grown him.

It was my understanding that Benny only has one year left on his contract and as such can sign a pre contract agreement with A.N.other in 6mths and walk away free next summer. As such, a season long loan deal makes no financial sense for us at all. AVB clearly doesn't want him so sell him now and get something for him while we can.

Suddenly making sense couldn't work out why Benny was out of the picture, think you've answered your own question BAE must want to be a free agent Spurs can't be happy with that and told him to keep away

OU812 - Now that makes sense. Was wondering what he had done to be told to stay away. Thank you for waking me up!

Apparently the Coentrão deal was a no-no. Benoit definitely going to QPR, unless he is having a giraffe on his twitter (wouldn't put it past him!)

Why would the coentrao deal not have been part of the bale deal? {Ed008's Note - It was always going to be separate.

If true surely we would already have a LB lined up

Zeki fryers is a left back and also jan has played there for us so maybe tottenham think we've got enough in that postion

Tottenham has made a 7 million pounds offer to Catania for defender Nicolas Spolli

Doesn't seem to fit AVB's profile for defenders. Fairly solid but not pacey or great on the ball. £7m seems too high too. Maybe it's just agents trying to meddle on transfer day.?

Reports on twitter from Russia that zenit are looking for a striker, and out of desperation more than anything else could look at ade, and apparently it was spurs that offered £10mill for hulk on loan and zenit turned it down! Thoughts eds? {Ed008's Note - Zenit wanted £10m not Spurs offered according to Sky, Adebayor is available for transfer I know nothing of interest from Zenit

Check out Arthur petrosyan on twitter, on his tweets he talks about it! {Ed008's Note - Don't believe everything you read, but you never know..

Ed - any news on Hulk could it happen and do we really need him!? {Ed008's Note - I would say it's highly unlikely but wouldn't say never because AVB rates him.

Hi eds, any news, I not big on ince, anything on chicarito or any first team additions? I will feel robbed if we do nothing on deadline day, I booked day off work and everything! {Ed008's Note - Ince won't happen this summer IMO, Hernandez has only returned to fitness from injury don't think he'll be leaving either, as i've said a lot of focus is on letting players go Adebayor,Assou-Ekotto etc maybe a signing will happen if at the right price, Sky just said Zenit qouted Spurs 10m loan fee for the season for Hulk can't see that happening either..

Can't see hulk happening personally, Torres maybe? I can dream!

Hi ed. who do you feel we will sign today if any1. I hope once does not come. I feel he is over rated and think James Forrest would be a better option and cheaper. I say this as being Scottish I see him on tv all the time and think he wld do we'll in the pl but that is just my opinion. {Ed008's Note - I don't feel who will be signed today will be more about outs then ins as I said if a player becomes avaiable at a good price eg Van Der Vaart couple of years ago I'm sure Spurs would be interested.
