Hi eds any thoughts when tottenham will begin to blood our youth? when are we likely to see players like soulymain coulibaly and uvivi?

Thanks COYS {Ed008's Note - I'm guessing here but the way the club is going i'd say within the next couple of years with cup games being the focus.

Redknapp to chelsea? any news on this ed? {Ed008's Note - Highly unlikely but i'd check the Chelsea page for more info as he knows more than i do. All depends i think on Di Matteo winning the Champions League.

Hi eds love the site any idea on tottenham's top targets this window?

and do you think levy will spend big?
{Ed008's Note - All depends if 4th place is achieved and Chelsea don't win the CL. Realistically Harry needs to commit to the club before moving forward that's why Spurs haven't spent big last couple of seasons. Can defo see investment in the team in the summer if that's the case.

Clint Dempsey would be the ideal replacement if Luca Modric leaves

Agree0 Disagree6

How is dempsey a modric replacement? he's a second striker/winger. he's not a deep-lying centre midfield playmaker

Agree3 Disagree2

Clint dempsey is 29 nearly 30.........He is not the ideal replacement now is he.

Agree3 Disagree1

Dempsey replacement for modders??? do you actualy know anything about football?? u total nobber

Agree5 Disagree1

Eriksen or danny from zenit would be better

Agree0 Disagree0

IF we were to buy Dempsey (in my eyes good enough for spurs but will never happen), his like for like replacement would be VDV.

Dear ED

Some excellent posts by you lately, but one small gripe. You say 'All Depends If We Can Get 4th Place' like the present before you. Spurs will get 3rd place and we will secure Champions League Football.

According to the daily telegraph, which i would consider slightly more trustworthy journalism, our targets are junior hoilett, jan verthongen and eden hazard. I think these are realistic for us as I am of the opinion that Levy has cash to spend for players that will improve the team, but he's not gonna waste it needlessly. Hoilett is young with good potential, and in Levy's eyes, will have a potential transfer profit. I think we are in need of more pace out wide so obviously we will be sniffing around Hazard, especially if Bale leaves (imo he'll stay). Also I think we need some more solidity, pace and athleticism at the back so Verthongen would fit the mould perfectly.
It still leaves the situation of a centre forward with Adebayor still needing to prove he can score goals when he's needed, but is going to be freely available if we don't take him. I don't think Loic Remy will be going anywhere so it's hard to see who is available to us really... Except Berbatov?!
Other targets that have been banded about are players like Adam Johnson and Nigel De Jong, but i'm not sure whether any business is wise with City.
Any thoughts?

Bring in Bains lb vertogen cb hazard if possible Daimo striker with Ba and bebatov. push caulker and naughton into squad next season and we will be lot stronger.

According to Google Translate: AMSTERDAM Tottenham player Rafael van der Vaart says that the transition from Jan Vertonghen from Ajax to his club a close trade-off. The footballer said that during the presentation of his glossy Rafael.

Ajax and Tottenham Hotspur would talk about a transition from the central defender to the club from London. "I hope he comes. I think it's a close deal.Ik know from the conversations, they have asked me forward and I think he is currently a gain for us. If John is smart, he opted for Tottenham."

Van der Vaart played soccer Wednesday, when his former club Ajax champion himself against Bolton Wanderers. The Heemskerker scored and won 4-1. "When I was in the locker room came I went to the Internet quickly. I am obviously still a decent Ajaxfan so then it's awfully nice for the boys that they do for each other got. If they are smart, they drink, very drunk be. Maybe later tonight I close still for a moment. "
'

-Sounds like a wish to me. Both Vermaelen and Vaart have connections to Jan. At tottenham he would be an immediate starter. At arsenal he would play regularly (even with Verm and Metesecker starting)as they have one of the worst defensive injury records for the last two years. If he wants to stay out of the treatment room and play he should come to WHL.
