nothing on the news but alot bout 'arry getting sacked!! anyone know anything?

He has been offered a huge amount to go to the middle east, believe Qatar.

Luuk de Jong from FC Twente could be one of the inbound strikers, seems we're looking at two from a pool that contains him along with Adebayor, Remy, Damaio and an unnamed Premier League striker (Demba Ba perhaps?).

This along with a replacement for Modric, if he goes are major priorities. That's where the Lavezzi link may come from, also Belhanda, Martinez and Ganso have generated interest from Spurs.

Vertonghen appears a done deal and will be announced on or after June 1st.

Spurs also showed interest in Pedro of Barcelona recently but are not keen to enter negotiations with them if any kind as the subject of Bale will arise.

Redknapp has left!!

What a load of rubbish

Re Cavani and Martin reply, sorry i dont have any prove, but i do have a dictionary!

So basically you're just guessing that they're in talks?

Vertonghen, Marvin Martin, Adebayor and Leandro Damiao are all negotiating with Tottenham.

I hope the vertonghen, adebayor and damiao deals can be done. it'll put us in a good position for the beginning of the season. WE NEED TO KEEP OF LUKA

Keep hold of*

Where is your source, a h p bottle

Heard shalke are bidding 12 mil to get rafa VDV. klass jan hunteelar wont sign an extension to his contract and they think signing rafa will help. luckily for us he loves tottenham, just whether tottenham want to cash in.

hope not, rafa is a pain in the arse but he's a legend. lets hope he persuades Klass to come to us instead.

vertonghen
remy

Maybe hunterlaar is coming to us? If he won't sign a new contract and wants to play with vdv.. Maybe that means he will just have to come play with us? Wishful thinking.. I know!

Who else thinks VDV wouldn't be sorely missed ? Yes yes he's a great player but .... He's a slow link in a fast spurs team

Neymar my arse

Neymar a rumour his gona cost more then hazard, that is impossible more chance of signing tevez

Besides Johnson, forget about Neymar and Kaka!!

Neymar, more chance in getting Messi.

Huntelaar is klaas, and VDV is happy at Spurs. The pair playing together would be mouthwatering

VDV should not be sold, regardless of our opinions. We already have to do a lot of business this summer with new strikers + vertonghen and maybe a new winger, plus a replacement for modric if he goes. Selling VDV, who is one of our 'star' players (Bale & Modric too) plus the only one who has expressed a genuine desire to stay and become a legend will only increase the uncertainty in the dressing room. It's not worth it for the disruption it would cause our season

A legend after 20 months and unable to play 90 mins ... Your standards have slipped a long ways... Oh and what have we won since he arrived ? Mmmm

Did I say he was already a legend? No. What you can't avoid though is we have a world cup final captain in our squad who is one of the classiest players I have seen at spurs in a long time, who has publicly stated he will only move to spend the last few years of his career in the eredivisie.

Which is why he is so quiet about the Schalke rumor ?

Quote: A legend after 20 months and unable to play 90 mins ... Your standards have slipped a long ways... Oh and what have we won since he arrived ? Mmmm.
This is some kind of joke post? VDV is one of the few players Im happy to shell out an arm and a leg for to watch at the lane. He is class, period. No we havent won anything since he has been with us and we didnt finish in the top three with Adebayor, Modric, Bale etc, etc. You think its all down to VDV?As for not being able to play for 90mins, thats utter bullsh*t. Injuries aside, he has shown that he is more than capable of staying on the pitch for 90mins but Redknapp has proved that, more often than not, he cant keep the fella on without taking him off. To the other poster, when you are as clever as he is on the pitch you can compensate for a lack of pace.Are you going to criticise Parker for no pace? Sandro? Huddlestone? Modric? Nah. IIRC, his goals tally isnt too shabby either, right? How soon people forget, eh? Some of the stuff on here is utter cack and you seriously wonder if some of the posters have been watching Spurs with blindfolds on. To repeat: He is top quality, scores goals, creates goals, is experienced and to replace him with as good or better will cost us about twice the amount of the £10 million that has been suggested Shalke would pay for him. Do the maths if you cant do the football phillosphy.
Super Y*d

VDV class yes, a legend no.

I reckon before you reply you really ought to learn to read peoples posts. NOBODY has said he IS a legend, have they? The difference between the good, the great and the legends is, possibly silverware and, without a doubt, the supporters perception of them. Loyalty can make legends just as much as trophys can. This club has many "legends" but not all of them were great players just loyal hardworking Pros who understood what being a supporter meant. Dont assume that great players automatically become legends, they dont.
Super Y*d

"rafa's a pain in the arse, but he's a legend" try reading the initial post.

I have been friends with a family
member of Harrys for 45 years. Last
week they told my brother that Harry
was at loggerheads with Levy over
the length of his next contract. Harry
has now spoken to two other clubs. He
thinks Harry hopes Levy will give in.
At this stage Levy is being stubborn,
which may see Harry depart. Last i
had heard this was to be Harry's last
job. Levy seems to still be upset
over the England speculation and
Harry's refusal to go public and say
he was not interested.

What utter twaddle why if you had been friends with his family for 45 years is his family member speaking to your brother...? Jog on you gooner mug

This sounds like complete bull.

Dipstick i'm a Spurs fan who went to school with a family member in East London. I live in Australia now my brother is involved in football in the UK. I have no idea how true it is. I'm definitely not a gooner though.

^^^Calm down mate! Others have also expressed similar sentiments!

I believe the rumour. Personally I'm hacked off that Harry didn't commit and so would Levy especially how we stood by him in the tax case. I read somewhere yesterday that we may be copying the Barcelona system by promoting within. Harry will stay for at least a season but Tim Sherwood will take over as manager when he goes.

The Rabbit

Re: Rabbit, I've not heard that but I do know that Sherwood is highly thought of at Spurs and wouldn't be suprised if he did manage us one day!
Mo

Mo, I've heard rumours he's being specifically groomed for the spurs job in a few years
