German TV Channel Sat 1 says Spurs have bid for Marin & Podolski and will get both.

Oh I hope your right, but unfortunately can't see it happening.

Would be an amazing coup, both are fantastic quality players!! but alas they are both out of our league!!
Agree0

Heard this also. Go get Demaio. Swap Bassong for Cahill + cash. Get rid of Crouch and Hutton and we'llnot be too far away.
Agree0
Disagree0
These are not out of our league. They play for mediocre German clubs, one of whom we put to the sword with ease last year and the other weren't even in Europe.
I'm not saying we'll get them, but they're not out of our league...

Daniel Levy is fast becoming an embarrassment. Unless he has some stars to come tomorrow were gonna finish a mac of 6th. Even Wenger has been buying ffs!
Agree0
Disagree0
We will not sign anyone! You only have to look at the way this has been played out, a player on loan because this is the best they can do, there is no money left at spurs .
Agree0
Disagree0
Lewis apparently has pulled the plug - that's why Levy is hanging on for as much as possible for Modric - it'll be £40m or no sale.
Even though it's too late to re-invest that, the money isn't there to spend without selling

M'villa? where did you get that one from ?
we already have sandro and huddlestone, modric and parker
Agree0

Just heard a rumour we are in for a younger diarra currently in the french national team so i guess its him, but as we are only hearing it now i would say it would be too late also maybe pjanic (i just get this from a friend on a certain forum who has told me that this info has come from a very trustworthy person). I am guessing that pjanic would be a replacement for modders or VDV is out for a while

I like the potential of the young Andros Townsend. He looks to have some good qualities about him. I wonder if he could be worth a shot at playing in CM role. He just seems to me he has what it takes to control the area. Hard working and commited. Obviously experience is needed, but I feel he could do a good job there. Any Thoughts?

Hi Andros Townsends mum, dont think your son is good enough for CM role. i wouldnt even put him on the bench!

Just another krancjar-like player, we need force in the middle of the park. cant wait for sandro to get back!

First comment is a bit mean... i like townsend and do agree that he has potential.... but hes not a cm player....
and as to the last post
Sandro please hurry and get better
:( we NEEED you
Agree0

Lol @ Hi Andros Townsends mum, dont think your son is good enough for CM role. (had me in stitches)
Townsends is a winger, and nothing more. maybe you mixed him up with Livermore in CM! He has potential. Townsend is ok but not a future star for a big four team.
Agree0

Looks good,can beat people.gunna blow hot and cold i think(like lennon).

We will sign by the end of the window;
Gary Cahill
Scott Parker
Bryan Ruiz
Klaas Jan Huntelaar
That is all. Cahill for around 10-12 million, Scott Parker for 6 million, Bryan Ruiz for 12 million and Huntelaar for around 10 million. Modric will go to Chelsea for 35 million. Not sure if one of their players is coming to us though. Hutton will leave to Villa, Palacios to Stoke, Bassong to Blackburn and Bentley will out on loan.
Up The Spurs!

Agree0

Why is Parker taking such a battering? Player of the year, voted by ALL the other players, says quite a bit, and yes at a poor team, which makes it even better performance.....didnt see anyone from Brum or Blackpool nominated??
Agree0
Disagree0
Tell me Azza where was this team when Harry found us? Look where he brought us to. Cut the man some slack he has done wonders for this club and deserves some respect not a slagging from clueless idiots like you.
Agree0
Disagree0
Who's this Azza?he does come out with some crap! {Ed008's Note - Very loyal Spurs fan
Agree0
Disagree0
He wasn't voted player of the season by the players he was infact writers player of the year which is voted by the journalists who mostly support west ham
Agree0
Disagree0
Yep Azza is a loyal fan who deserves respect . At least he has the balls to put his monicker after his posts . Yes Arry did get us out of the s**t but now , thanks to his crap purchases and useless tactics , we are back in the same sort of s**t we started in . Lets face facts , Arrys tactics are , lump it up to Crouch and lets see where it drops ! As for his purchases , lets not even go there !!

Parker was top notch last year and lots of teams inc goon scum have thought long and hard and so have chavski so he cant be that bad..still england int. worth a punt for 6m. Knows prem why gamble on foreigner that will take time to settle.

Oh look mr levy the gooners know they are s**t so have started to spend some money! wtf are you doing??? {Ed008's Note - Arsenal are panic spending though lol
Believable6
Unbelievable3
I'm tired of people presuming that Levy is doing nothing. Football transfers are not as easy as on a computer game there are plenty of factors that make transfers take longer than the fans would like. He obviously is trying to bring in players and with Parker expected to join later today is proof of this. Also we have a large squad and so need to sell players to bring in others, but sadly our players that we want to sell, nobody wants. In an ideal world players like Gio, Betley and Hutton would have gone weeks ago and we would have strengthened the squad with world class players such as Ribery, Robben and Rossi, but this isn't an ideal world and things aren't black and white. Wait until September 1st to moan about Levy/Harry. It's not unreasonable to think that by tomorrow night Parker, Cahill and a striker (Possibly Huntelaar) could all have joined
Agree0
Disagree0
Shouldn't we panic spend too? Were crap!
Agree0
Disagree0
If they was panic spending ed they would have tried grabbing cahill whom they dropped there intrest maertsaker young poss klaas van huuntler and whom ever aw his in talks with in france reports ssn 30 mill bid for gotze nocked back panic buying looks good to santon 7 mill the kraut only 9 milland they still have money to spend {Ed008's Note - AW always buys his players in July early August they got smashed 8-2 on weekend they know they have to buy quickly and pay over the odds Gotze is not worth 30Mil but could be in the future.
Agree0
Disagree0
Agreed there panic spending but hey we need players so shouldnt we?? i mean come on i know transfers take a long time but lets cash in on modders and get the wallet out. we could easily sign 4 maybe 5 players with money from modric, palacios and who every else goes by the sounds of things crouch and dos santos( of which im gutted about i like dos santos) but i think cash in on mod and buy cahill, ruiz, bellamy, johnson and 1 other not including parker which is done. or even if we dont get bellamy and johnson one class siging personally i would like a new right winger.
TCYID
{Ed008's Note -Panic Spending = Debt spending more than you should! Bolton want 15m+ for Cahill a player who has 1 year left on contract i wouldn't go near him. You need to negotiate deals better than what Man City have done otherwise you'll suffer in future.
Agree0
Disagree0
You want people to pay top dollar for crap gio de santos 8and half mill crouch nearly 31 60k a wk price [rumour]8/11mill the teams that would take these players cant afford them at silly money levy moans about players not having a sell on if you trim 2/3 mill of certain players they would sell?
Agree0
Disagree0
Exactly my point if they panic buy they would gone for cahill 3 england caps12/15 mill price age 25 meartsakers spelling 26 yrs old 9mill 26 international cap numerous euro comp exp that sounds like a quality signing to me
Agree0
Disagree0
Think wenger knows he has to buy but still prefer foreign players to english. Cahill is top quality potential metersaker is slow and has poor distribution but can read game well. but i think if we get cahill he will be a better signing. need prem proven players who can hit ground running. wengers foreign legion will take time to adjust. parker and cahill will help us become more of a force than wengers. Look at chamahk and arsharvin and how they have failed.

Klaas-jan huntelaar has been reported to have been spotted in London in talks with tottenham god help us.
Source Talksport about 15:10 {Ed008's Note - Huntelaar is a good player a very good player why you moaning ?
Believable12
Unbelievable3
He is a quality striker. however you lie, its not on there {Ed008's Note - I am not aware of him being at Spurs. I just said he's a very good player.
Agree0
Disagree0
Ed you just told me that its all waffle on t/s now your buying into klass van huntler {Ed008's Note - Little mistake on my behalf their is no info to say he is in London i am not aware of him being around i don't look at Talksport as it's a load of rubbish and misleading many times. He is a very good player though.
Agree0
Disagree0
Another slow striker. That's probably "why he moaning" {Ed008's Note - Quicker than Crouch ;) He is a very good finisher you don't have to be quick to score goals.
Agree0
Disagree0
I do not lie i herd it on talksport i don't need to lie so please don't call me one ty. {Ed008's Note - I think they should change it to Talksh*t very unreliable site but if their right for once good signing i'll try and find some more info regarding him.
Agree0
Disagree0
You are a liar because it didn't say that. And as ed says they always come up with their own awful rumours. {Ed008's Note - Go easy with "lier" let's just say he "misinformed us" leave it at that we move on.
Agree0
Disagree0
Huntelaar always seen in london every transfer window, bet some guy from burger king confused to why people taking his photo and asking for autograph while he's on his fag break
Agree0
Disagree0
Again you call me a liar i am sorry i did here this on Talksport maybe thats why i said god help us maybe you should be a arsenal fan i have better things to do than make up total crap about spurs. {Ed008's Note - Like i said leave it and we'll see if anything happens.
Agree0
Disagree0
Huntelar is a good finisher alright but his overall game is awful can't hold up ball or pass so don't know how I feel about it better than crouch & pav alright but nowhere near as good negredo who scored twice wkend and has an alround game , I'm still expecting Abel hernandez to sign {Ed008's Note - Are you silly ? He is a much better player than Crouch and Pav even put together his goal ratio is amazing even for Real Madrid he scores goals that's what we need. Abel is not good enough yet need's to improve a lot more.
Agree0
Disagree0
Hes not a lier i heard it on talksport aswell so hopefully its true! and for everyone slagging harry and levy, wait a couple of weeks and your soon change your tune when we start smashing in the goals! {Ed008's Note - This debate will contiune till tomorrow! We shall see! Ade+Hunt=GOALS
Agree0

AWESOME PLAYER DOUBT THIS THO WE HAVE TRIED FOR 2 YEARS TO SIGN HIM

Shouldn't be fighting as we are all spurs in this together! Hopefully it will happen.

Huntelaar is crap, another player who scored loads in Holland but can't do it elsewhere!
Mo {Ed008's Note - Scored in Madrid and Milan actually some people here dont watch football.
Agree0

Would be a great signing and he'll be full of confidence after banging in 12 goals for Schalke so far this season in only 7 games
Agree0

Big name could link well with vdv and make modric and vdv think we mean buisness. Think english game could suit him more. if it does he could do a real job for us. hopefully vdv can help get him however i doubt we will show that determination to get top draw striker that we have lacked since berba went. Id even take him back. still quality
Agree0

U lack charachter............... {Ed003's Note - And you lack patience,the posts are waiting for the Ed you are in debate with to return and reply to you}
Agree0
Disagree0
30 Aug 2011 15:06:31
where do you think modric will be after the transfer window closes?why cant they just get it out the way and move on for a replacement? {Ed008's Note - To be honest i don't even know if he stays he could affect the whole teams morale if he leaves it makes us look like a feeder club and a top class player leaves and players like Bale,VDV will see no ambition and will soon follow my opinion only.

Second last day of the window and Hargreaves is having medical at city, cole on his way to Lille, and diarra could be ac Milan bound. We don't seem to be moving mountains for players at the minute and panic buying on the last day will be a nightmare.
"dear santa, I know it's early but all I want for an early Christmas present is Gary cahill, modric to bugger off to Chelsea with one of their players plus £30mill coming the other way (maybe malouda), Scott Parker (cos it's all we can get right now) and one of; Ruiz, llorente or Rossi!".
