Hi Ed I see a few websites saying we're going to sign Alexandro pato is there any truth to this?

{Ed001's Note - he has been offered to just about every team in Europe, but there was little interest. I know Spurs need a striker, but I don't see why they would suddenly show interest in an injury prone playboy that they have already rejected as an option earlier in the summer. I haven't checked in the last few weeks, but I can't see why they would change their mind.}

ED I accept Charlie Austin might not be your favourite player, but you didn't need to make him sound like a cross between Madonna and Darren Anderton!

He isn't the best passer of the ball, strays offside far too often, has a few injury setbacks, but his heading and finishing is sublime!

He is only 26 and in the Championship promotion season he played 31 hard games scoring 19 goals. Last season in a weak QPR team that was relegated he once again played 35 games and scored 18 goals. He can hardly be described as injury prone or a bad finisher. He is a great player and would be useful as backup this season if the price were £10m.

{Ed001's Note - I think you might have got the wrong end of the stick, this is about Pato, not Austin.}

Austin is a lesser version of Kane! He is a good finisher in the box but offers nothing outside the box . We desperately need some pace in the team , Dembele , Chadli good squad players , Lamela totally useless , Townsend is fast but useless , at least Lennon is a trier!
Teams that play us know we have no real width or pace . We need the Ukrainian midfielder , and To give Delle Ali and Pritchard their chances . Stop using the excuses they are too young , and set them loose . They would be better than Mason and Benteleb!!

Complete Rubbish. I told you before Saido Berahino coming to Spurs, but with Levy involved will always take longer than its supposed to. 20 million is the kind of offer west brom will accept and this hasn't happened yet hence why he's still a west brom player
