Looks like Belhanda has agreed personal terms with fenerbache, but has to negotiate with the club. If levy wants him he has to do it soon.
We'' know soon

I really don't think that Tottenham will sign the names being banded about. Levy will pluck some unknown youngster from obscurity and hope the Spurs coaching staff can get him playing well. Levy is all about youth development, I wouldn't be surprised if we see Obika and Colubay make thier debuts whilst Ade is away. Remember Levy is as tight as a ducks butt and does not want quick fixes, with the exception of Dempsey of course. He is building for the next 3 years aka AVB's project. I believe in what AVB is doing, but not sure Levy is giving him the correct resources.

Why do people say Levy is tight ? Do you lot know anything, this is not football manager where if you go in debt you start again - he is without doubt one if the best chairmen in the game and runs the club excellently, hence us making money building new training facilities and new stadium in the way
Yes I'd love a 20-30 m pound player but the fact is we can't afford this caliber

I'd resign modric all day long! He's the missing piece! Any one agree

Essex Spurs it is great that there are some people on this site with a brain like you. These Daniel Levy naysayers are the dangerous negative undercurrent that we have had for many years. Levy has been nothing short of amazing, and for the first time we actually expect to qualify for the Champions League. The new training facilities are arguably the best in the Premiership, and the financials are healthy and aligned to our new stadium aspirations. The days of Leonardson, Armstrong, Rebrov, Taricco, Austion, Edinburgh, Cundy and Dozzell are over. We now have seasoned internationals on the bench, and some top superstars like Bale, Vertonghen, Lloris, Sandro and Dembele. It is the depth of quality that Harry eluded to. We could put out two Premiership sides or maybe even three.

Harry is absolutely correct that our 2nd XI can beat most teams. When Damiao arrives next week and Moutinho follows I expect the boo boys will go into hiding for a while.

The Oracle

I completely agree! In my opinion the best chiaan I. The league! These people that jus say spend £30 mill here and then another £25 mill on him don't realise they are talking about real money. I just have I ask though why orical? After a well worded good reply to a great post do you have to drag that name up that just makes me skim past all of you posts! Give you a clue it begins with a "D"
Jakethespur

They might oracle, but also, when damaio and moutinho don't turn up next week, they will be all over you like a rash. I think you will be the one in hiding. Just give it a rest will ya.

COYMFS.

Damiao, sign for us, I doubt he will be even within a mile of london next week.
moutinho may be looked at in the summer, if we have champions league football.
contrary to belief I doubt we will sign any world beaters, however after watchin schalke against hannover the other night, holtby does look good.
his post match interview he was asked if he would be leaving, and his direct response was 'i just want to play football......which could go either way. to bring him in early to cover sandro, would prove fruitless as his defensive game is below par, but going forward and his eye for a pass is very good.
in regards to Son, he is pacy, has an eye for goal....which for 10 million is not a bad price, and there would be a potential for a good profit if we sell.
Sneijder remains an option, but along with everyone else, would have to drop his wage demands dramatically. his option is sign for another club, or rot on the bench and miss rio.
please remember there is a budget due to the following factors, new stadium and lack of champions league football.
as far as modric coming back....sod that, I do not even have to explain that.
tottenham will probably sign a striker on loan, and I would likre us to blood coulibaly......he is ready.

any heres to three points this afternoon

yod mark

Ore bs from Oracle, if our 2nd team can beat practically anyone in the PL, then why the f**k didn't our first team ??
Davo

Yod mark: Damiao within a mile? More like 1000 mate.

TSGMO {Ed008's Note - Try 100000...

I think if we had a world class sticker like damiao or others we would if thrashed Man U. We were all over them they only had 2 shots on target. We had loads.

Come on levy we so need that world class striker it will pay dividens in long run even if initial out lay high.

Please sign one.

Fredy Guarin (Columbian at Inter Milan) is being looked at by Spurs and Man Utd. Moutinho is only available for the 40m release clause due to his amazing form this season and he does not want to leave Porto until the summer. AVB knows Guarin inside-out and made him a world class central midfielder at Porto. He can create, score, has steel, is strong, can head, can tackle. I think he would be a good signing. Even better if we can lure him away from Old Trafford!

No chance

Ed, When will lewis holtby join spurs? he had a great game yesterday with 2 assists and a goal! so when do you think he will join? this month or july? {Ed002's Note - I can't say.}

I am not itk but anyone got a feeling we may grab a striker on the last day of the transfer deadline. Also maybe not one we have been linked with. Can actually imagine someone like Torres. Obviously we couldn't pay 50 mill but if they suddenly get in hulk or falcao then he could be moved on and levy could work one of his deals. Just a suggestion so don't shoot me down. More likely to panic sign Danny graham. Any views on a Torres move?

Torres Would more likely be used as a player plus cash deal for Falcao. It seems the most logical thing as Athletico will need to replace him anyway.

Willian is very close to joining Tottenham.

Ted Twoizacarnt

Knowing DL, more likely Saha.

The spuds have got more chance of signing Will I Am, the black eyed spuds
