Damiao is imminent as Internacional complete the signing of Dagoberto as his replacement. Soon that "Special Player" will be at Spurs and Cahill will follow.

The Oracle

Believable6 Unbelievable8

Oracle, all your doing is hoping for this to happen, just admit your guessing and move on.

Spurs Lad

Agree8 Disagree1

Look at it this way - for someone just guessing or hoping, whomever the oracle is he is very persistant.

So either -
A. He knows what he is talking about (hopefully - as Damiao is dam good) or
B. He's setting himself up for one almighty fall.

The oracle has not changed his stance on this for months. Lets just wait and see. I for one hope that he is RIGHT.

Flippit.

Agree6 Disagree1

Leandro is still very much a target but Internacional want the best price. No deal has been agreed yet as it would have all been done and dusted at the end of the Brazil season if it had.
Hopefully things may happen but there are a couple of other options that might happen if the asking price proves to be too high

Agree0 Disagree1

Thanks Flippit for acknowledging the facts. I have been a stuck record for months but our glory is coming soon. This deal was agreed months ago when I first reported it, ans clearly there were conditions such as securing a replacement first. Soon our dealings will come to fruition and our special player will arrive like a shadow in the night.

Soon the brilliant Damiao will show the world on the greatest football stage ever being the current premiership. His power, skill, strength, aerial ability and eye for goal will set the Premiership alight.

The Oracle

Agree4 Disagree1

I for one hope this is more than just hoping and guessing too... I'm sure most fans here
Would agree .... But the Olympic stadium prediction was wrong so I'm going on a whim and assuming these Cahill and Damiao deals are also false : (

Agree1 Disagree1

I so hope your right and not leading me to a trap

Oracle , is you real name Damiao or Jamie R ??
Davo

Agree2 Disagree0

I can't see an instant impact from him, I agree January seems the most likely window for signing him, but this is because it's convenient for them, not us, when Sandro first played he got destroyed. There well definitely be a transitional period to adapt to the English game, and Tottenham's game, we got very lucky with Parker and ade, they slotted in to what we do perfectly, chemistry was perfect. But it's going to be hit and miss with any signing whether they gel or not, he does look a quality player though and the type of striker that would do well in the prem. Hopefully get on the end of some of bales Crosses that mostly go to waste at the moment.

Zer0logy

Agree2 Disagree2

There is no pre arranged deal with Leandro, we have an agreement that will allow us to match the best offer they receive but that's it. Internacional simply want the best money they can get and you can't blame them for that. We still want him but I guess the price that others are willing to offer and of course Leandro's preference are key to this happening

Agree1 Disagree2

When does the brazillian season end? it seems to go on perpetually, hence why these transfers always take so long. Also how has brazillian football got so strong? a few years ago Neymar and Leandro and the like would already have been in europe for a few seasons. Think I read something about a new tv deal but don't know any details

Agree1 Disagree0

Brazilian season finished in December

Not looking good your predictions Oracle!!

I have solid info from an agent that Gomes is looking like being the key to the ganso deal that levy is pushing for not Harry. Remember levy bought sandro and vdv without Harry so don't be surprised if levy does a deal after all only levy really knows If Harry is gonna be in charge next season. This is the main reason aswell as the stadium that the purse strings have been firmly tied. Who ever is in charge at the start of next season might just have a rather large treasure chest provided we are back in CL

Modric in talks with Chelski over a possible swap with Lampard moving in the opp direction!!

Imagine Lamps in the heart of our MD!!!

Love this to happen!!!!

Believable2 Unbelievable28

Wrong board silly boy. Move over to the Chelski site.

Agree16 Disagree3

Lampard is past it would rather have Modric.

Agree21 Disagree0

Agree16 Disagree1

No chance lampard to old, Modric will stay at least to end of season

Agree11 Disagree1

back again. and got the latest from the wife ( if uve read my previous post few days ago ) it was regarding the real madrid represenatives that was at the lodge last week, just been informed by the wife (name i cannot mention ) and that a supposed medical was to take place with KAKA over the next week for a loan has stalled as now we are currently looking to buy in the summer, a negative factor is that real madrid are to offer £10mill for bale with the exchange on KAKA.. news i didnt really want to here. this is all to start poking its head out the water in july.

Believable2 Unbelievable11

Crap mate your wife is most probably a lovely woman but I think she might be telling porkies. She is having you on kaka would be a massive gamble the kaka that was at Milan I'd have all day long but you look at him now and he doesn't look like he could get in our starting 11. Sorry mate

Agree7 Disagree0

Big gamble kaka.
for a world class player he doesnt seem to grab the headlines anymore.has had injuries as he gets older and in my humble opinion,hes not the player he was several years ago.
i would be more excited by younger up and coming players,but that have proven ability.
same sort of wage demands and a sell on value if the need arises

Agree1 Disagree0

Your wife stating Kaka literally !!

Please stop it with these stupid rumours. Spurs have £37m in available transfer funds excluding the sale of players. In addition Levy knows investment to secure Champions League football is sound business practise.

With Pavlyuchenko, Dos Santos, Pienaar and even Krancjar all possible leavers, selling players is simply not required. Damiao & Cahill will sign and perhaps we can steal Kaka as the window closes.

According to some die-hard Norwich fans i know, spurs are in for winger Anthony Pilkington. Haven't seen enough of him to make a judgement yet

From a spurs players mouth in a restaurant last night samba will be signed in time for Saturday's game. Pav extremely unhappy although he adores the club and fans he wants to play football and if he leaves a replacement will be bought, but not a big money superstar that everyone is craving for. I also asked about the kaka speculation it was very much a goer at the start of the season but this player feels it's now dead in the water. First team player. Top bloke. That was all the info he had. From the barman at nobu

Believable2 Unbelievable8

Find it hard to believe that a player in a restaurant would explain the ongoing transfer deals with anyone.


why do you people do this?

zer0logy

Agree5 Disagree0

Look mate why would I make it up I told this to a friend who reads this site all the time he told me to post on here. And the player didn't just come up to me and spill his guts about way was going on. I told him I was a massive spurs fan and I asked him loads of questions while he was havin a drink some he answered ie. The post and some he didn't and to be perfectly honest I don't owe this player any confidence it was Tom huddlestone so put your tail between your legs an jog on mate

Agree1 Disagree6

Tom Huddlestone told you "Pav extremely unhappy although he adores the club and fans he wants to play football and if he leaves a replacement will be bought, but not a big money superstar that everyone is craving for". . .in a restaurant. . .over a drink. .

seems unlikely

zer0logy

Agree5 Disagree0

Lol@zer0.... they way you just stated your post above made me chuckle. Just imagining Tom with a drink, and saying the things above would be a sight to behold.

You get a like vote for making me chuckle

Not saying it's untrue but just a little hard to believe

Lets face it guys, IF he did say this in a resturant and bearing in mind his post on twitter at the end of the last transfer window, the T'hudd has previous in winding up all those who will listen....

As previously mentioned on this site, the rumours about Spurs interest in Krasic is gaining momentum and a proposal could be made by the end of this week. Any signing of Krasic is not likely until deadline day as Krasic's Agent likely to hold out to see who else will make a offer.

I have only posted twice, correctly telling you last summer that Parker, Adebeyor would join - I posted a few weeks ago to say that Spurs were after Samba (two weeks before it appeared in the press), however, they are talking to two clubs about CB's - one is Samba the other I am told is WHU. Levy will play hard ball and see who he gets, but negotiations have speeded up because of Ledley. We are also continuing to talk to Ajax, but the prices are being pushed up because it's January and we are doing well. We will also attempt bring in a Striker before the deadline, but it will be 11th hour brinkmanship (as usual) - I can't give you any names as there are several targets and we'll see who bites! The Mole

Believable3 Unbelievable4

In relation to our centre back problem to tomkins has potential but we are 3rd in the league people and samba is tried and tested at prem level so he is a must.striker situation is simple we need a good one before the 22nd and Harry knows it cause ade can't play against city and the game is massive and with city missing kompany and toure at the back it's a game we can defiantly win. So its time levy gets things done early an out the way if he is a true spurs fan then spending a little extra in jan should be the last thing on his mind seeing we have our best chance of winning the league since 61

Agree9 Disagree0

Hi Mole.

You say there are several names on the list. Can you tell, us who are they please or are you just hedging a very obivous bet so you can say told you so in the future - without actually telling us anything now that we didnt already know.

Agree2 Disagree0

All the names that we want Llorent, Hulk, Tevez, Cavani or the Brazilian Guy Leandro are really non starters as none of the clubs will sell mid season and ruin there own chances. Adebeyor definately won't stay after May. We may get Loic Remy of OLM or Dembele of Fulham which will push Pav closer to the door (but he won't be allowed to leave till the summer) The Mole.

Agree1 Disagree0

Dearest Mole

1. You certainly did not post Parker & Adebayor prior to my 3 posts on the same.

2. Your generalisation in this current post is open to a billion possibilities with no substance at all.

3. Your knowledge of football seems flawed as the player you call Leandro plays in Brazil. Your comment regarding him not signing due to his club not wanting to sell mid season is utter tosh. The Brazilian league runs from May - December and they have just secured a new replacement for next season in Dagoberto.

In summary you follow those really in the business and make up generic Nostradamus resembling predictions. Why not just elaborate a little more and say we are looking at a few male footballers, mainly right footers, but some are left and a couple are duel skilled. They come from leagues covering 5 continents and a few are regarded as really good.

Please Mr Mole stop stating things that reiterate previous posts, and if you are going to share news make it clear and relevant with no place to squirm out.

DAMIAO + CAHILL to sign in January as predicted by me months before the paparazzi linked them with almost every club in the World.

So Monsieur Mole. tell us your news and retract your Leandro Damiao mud season statement!

My mate lives in Spain and apparently Barca are in advaced talks over Bale.

Believable4 Unbelievable17

Bale not going anywhere in January nor is Modric or VDV they are key players were not a selling club any more !
Of what im hearing on the rumour front BA is quite likely to happen but dont be surprised if Mr levy is doing buisness elsewhere.

Agree10 Disagree0

My mate lives in Spain, therefore he also knows everything about Spanish football. Y'know, with it being such a small country and everything...

I also have a mate who lives in Poland, and he tells me that Lech Poznan are in for Luka Modric.

Wait for it... FACT!

Agree7 Disagree6

Quote from above...

"Of what im hearing on the rumour front BA is quite likely to happen but dont be surprised if Mr levy is doing buisness elsewhere".

Jesus - talk about hedgeing your bets. In one sentence you have said his arrivial is likely and unlikely. So which one is it?

Another fence sitter.

Agree5 Disagree1

I live in Spain and whilst there was comment in the sports press that Barca were interested in Bale there has been no meetings, no agreement with Spurs which they would need to even have a meeting also Abidal has supposedly now agreed a new deal.
No doubt Barca would like Bale but currently with money tight they wouldn't want to spend the money it would cost to get him and besides Bale is happy at Tottenham and knowing he's developing as a player there

Agree5 Disagree0

BA is set to sign a new 4 year contract when he gets back from ACON you heard it here first.

Agree2 Disagree2

I heard Harry has fallen back in love with crouchy and he's on his way back dan south

Agree4 Disagree8

For the guy who says he has a mate in Spain and described it as a small country who would all gossip like some tiny Yorkshire village.

Spain is a major European country with 46,081,574 people as at the last census in 2010. So you are actually more likely to win the national lottery than bump into some random guy in the know that tells you all about Barcelona genuine transfer targets.

In summary I suggest you and your mate stick to eating Paella and drinking some more San Miguel so you can dream up a few more stories.

The Oracle

Agree1 Disagree1

Regarding Luka and Lech Poznan. Your friend is taking you for a ride. Im Polish and i can tell you that the club couldnt afford to buy anyone of this profile or even close. Come on you Spurs!!

Agree2 Disagree1

The comment that starts 'my mate lives in Spain and therefore he also knows everything about Spanish football...'

is obviously a joke, poking fun at the original post. people seem to have missed that

zer0logy

Agree1 Disagree0

Zer0 is right, C'mon Oracle, I love your sarcastic posts about Assenal, surely you and (guy who posted 2 up from me) can see it was a sarcastic over the top comment.

Naz

From above -

"BA is set to sign a new 4 year contract when he gets back from ACON you heard it here first."

With us? Newcastle? PSV? Man Utd? Kinda missing the vital piece of info dont you think......
