Hi ed's, now that we have unbelievably completed the signings of Lamela, Eriksen, and Chiriches; would you expect that to be it for us now or is there any chance we could still look to bring in a new left back? {Ed008's Note - I think Rose will be given his chance all depends if Coentrao is part of the Bale deal, club haven't been able to shift Assou-Ekotto he needs to go.

Im not a spurs fan, but an admirer of the club. You have definitely one of the top 3 squads in the league, possibly top 2. Over-taken arsenal haha they don't stand a chance against you now you have lamella erikson soldado chadli and ALL the other great signings! TEAM TO WATCH

Will take time for the new players to gel. I think first target is to try to get more points than last season. I think next season will be more realistic for a title challenge. personally I think we have gone this far why not just do the complete squad makeover in one window. I think adebayor has to go therefore requiring another forward and a right back to put some decent pressure on walker. I thing mcnaughton is constantly an accident waiting to happen

hi ed
now that erikson is a spurs player is that our final piece of transfer business reguarding players coming in or is there still more to come. {Ed008's Note - Maybe 2 going out I think theirs no need for transfers in unless a bargain comes up?

Fan-f*ckin-tastic signing! This is the guy I've been clamouring on about for what seems like two seasons. Great vision, delivery and brain. Once he gets up to speed with the pace of the EPL, this guy is going to be Soldado's best friend. Have to say I'm absolutely delighted with today's acquisitions, but especially this one. Levy, Baldini and AVB - take a bow! Good work my friends, good work.
Now all we have to do is delay the Bale sale to prevent any Real players strengthening our rivals.
The last few weeks have been unbelievable. No club has ever been so active in the transfer market, and whilst personally I think we might experience a few teething problems in terms of the team and squad gelling, I think we have just set out our stall for not necessarily this season, but certainly the 2014-15 one. Roll on the good times. COYS!

Hi All,
An update for you all, although not new to us Spurs fans but Bale will be sold to RM, however deal will not be announced until VERY late on deadline day, as Levy doesn't want to give the gooners any chance of strengthening with signings from RM.
Another clever move from Levy. Also IMO Chiriches will be announced today, with Lamela announced Tomorrow, not sure what is happening with Eriksen, he seems keen on a move to us and he was granted leave from Ajax yesterday so hopefully he will sign soon as well, although Liverpool are looking to do a chavski and snatch him.
Still think we need a LB and a striker and to get shot of BAE, Ade and as much as I like him think moving Siggy on as he will not get much game time. If we can sell that lot for about 12-15m along with Bale for 86m along with the others we have already sold, this window could prove to be the best in our history, several recognised world class players in, fringe players out + Bale and we will still be about even on the transfer funds.

Don't u mean do a spud and snatch him

Liverpool ended their interest in eriksen long ago. we're looking for a winger. and we don't need another player with suarez type ego
Agree3

Why would he go to Liverpool for over Spurs. lol {Ed008's Note - Eriksen might go to Milan now that they've sold Boateng between the 2 clubs IMO.

Suarez type ego? What are you smoking? They are nothing like.

Great business by Levy, Baldini and AVB this summer . but if I have a concern, I'm concerned about the lack of pressure experience in either big games or a tight fight for Top 4/ title. Though I think talks of tittle challenge are premature until this group of players settle in together.
Agree2

So I take it lamela wasnt registered in time to play on sunday or could they of registered him before they announced before hand? really hate the internationals for 2 weeks before we see him and erikson. {Ed008's Note - He might have been registered in time...
Agree2

Hopefully the amount of spending done will be that extra something to attract eriksen.
AC Milan are not what they used to be by a long shot, so I don't really see the appeal of going there right now. hopefully they don't have the funds to convince him otherwise either. {Ed008's Note - They've agreed terms with the player but not a fee with Ajax don't think it'll be sorted till deadline day.
Agree2
Disagree0
Cant see eriksen going to milan now, he has already passed a medical as far as I know and we defo wudnt let another slip through cause he agreed terms before his medical when levy travelled to holland, i'd say soon enough be announced he's a spurs player later or maybe early tomorow hopefully

There he is again the famous Vertongen1 spouting absolute rubbish, you post all have the same end product absolute rubbish . Hulk, Lemela. remind who did we sign today?
Agree1

Straight from S S N:
Speaking of Christian Eriksen and he looks set to become the latest player to join Tottenham. Ajax coach Frank de Boer has been quoted as saying "the only thing missing is the signature. The transfer of Eriksen to Tottenham is as good as final".
Agree2

Many apologies Vert1 it was the Ed I was refering to . please refer to my post of the 15th when I said Lemela will sign and he questioned it! Erikssen is done . nothing like creating a situation Ed hey. {Ed002's Note - your post was about lemele and not lamela and then for some reason you brought up spanish fascist dictator franco.}

After the Willian balls up in getting squeaky regarding the lamela, chiricas and eriksen deals, any idea how close we are regarding medicals etc ed? {Ed001's Note - they should all be confirmed as done over the next couple of days, depending on how long the medical results take. Each club is different, but I think Spurs are among the two day medicals bunch now, if I remember correctly. It has been a long day, so I apologise if I have that wrong, though it will just mean they should be confirmed sooner. Well, barring any issues being uncovered by their medicals.}

Unbelievable1
Medicals, when carried out take a day with readings and results generally instant but require analysis so 2 days is generally correct however in that time contracts are drawn up ready for completion. We should see Chiriches and Lamela today, depending in how accurate reports are on eriksen being in London also today / tomorrow - Director

I see that Eric Lamela is listed on the premier league official website as a spurs player (although it is listed as 'Not Active').
Does this mean that he has been registered, or is this just the webteam there getting it ready?
