i have read many posts of ur mates talikn abt we signing these n that with foolish pries .
get ur self cleared guys n then write

afellay-asenal,pool also interested so wont even get his photo in 5m
j cole-4-5miln though we dont need him

out of above only diarra , cole n may be a striker we will sign

Agree0 Disagree0

I think you spent the night on the magic mushrooms mate . Dont get me wrong it would be nice but it aint going to happen . Going on your prices for our fringe players , you must be Levy's son or daughter
Davo

Agree0 Disagree0

What a load of garbage... Not to mention your prices are way off on some... Keane 5.5m? Bentley 7m and Hutton 7.5m Haha utter utter nonsense.

Agree0 Disagree0

I see Mystic Meg has found a job. Havnt you got anything better to do than dream? Playing Mr Manager.

Agree0 Disagree0

So what your saying is we get to sell our players for top prices and we get all ours at a discount. Most of that won't happen and practically none at those prices
And Cole isn't going to happen nor Pedroza

Agree0 Disagree0

Can i have some of what you've been smoking please - it sounds nice over there in cloud cocu land

Agree0 Disagree0

I think even with that 4-5-2 formation we'd struggle to win the league

Agree0 Disagree0

Go away

Agree0 Disagree0

Who's been playing Football Manager too much.
We wont sign half of these players, and Cole is still got 3 years of his contract with Liverpool - he wont leave on a free.
Some of the players leaving look about right though.

Agree0 Disagree0

Again spurs will never sign that amount of players in this short time they have left. 1 or 2 new players will sign and maybe 3 or 4 will go.

Agree0 Disagree0

For a start... you field a 12 man team AND... Sandro is away on loan so wats with the bull****?

Agree0 Disagree0

U talk Rubbish, there will b not transfers b4, start of season & maybe 1 b 4 end of Aug

With the dead wood still at the lane 4 another season
Get real

Agree0 Disagree0

Who wrote Sandro is away on loan? you numpty

Agree0 Disagree0

Caulker is on a season long loan

Agree0 Disagree0

Whilst this is one of the most comical rumours I have read, I have to say trying to field a 12 man squad just tops this off.

Oh and one of the comments said Sandro is on loan, I will just let you know he is not on loan, he is injured.

Caulker is on loan though.

Agree0 Disagree0

Erm... did i miss a new rule being brought in that we now half 12 men on the pitch?

Rich

Agree0 Disagree0

Whoever said sandro is out on loan is an person and shouldnt bother posting as you know absolutely nothing.

sandro has had an operation and is out for 3 months

Agree0 Disagree0

Actually there is quite a lot of truth in the above. I have a great source who has told me that 75% of the names listed are more than a possibility. When I mean good source, I mean very good, as in he was one of the guys who sorted out the VDV deal. I do know that Tottenham's PR team have been very busy with news coming out later this week regarding most of the above named. The ones going out are slightly untrue though. Cant say to much but COYS

Agree0 Disagree0

Well if you cant say too much, why bother coming on here? You know Zippo.

Agree0 Disagree0

With reference to fielding 12 men on the pitch, ITS TRUE MANU have been doing it for years and now its our turn, The REF will be our 12th man GET IN signing of the season COYS

Agree0 Disagree0

All that rioting must have got to your head ther is no chance of that happening

Agree0 Disagree0

Now we have 2 idiots on this thread, the original poster and his mate who knows that 75% of the post is true Please go back to Spurs Community you idiots

Agree0 Disagree0

75% of the above is true - seriously your are prize person so your saying between now until the end of the transfer window there will be 12 players coming and going
You are a prize fool

Agree0 Disagree0

********Actually there is quite a lot of truth in the above. I have a great source who has told me that 75% of the names listed are more than a possibility.

ok i got u ..u n ur sorce last night got drunk too much...that u piss this crap here

Agree0 Disagree0

Love the 12 man team... i reckon we'd stand a good chance with that. i wonder if we could have 3 keepers on at once too?

Agree0 Disagree0

I write a superb and informed article with real transfer figures, and thank those who supported it. Those of you who found the time to abuse me are typical misinformed arm chair yobs without a brain. So rather than write totally immature nonsensical nonsense, I suggest that you spend a little more time educating yourselves instead of looting shops and causing trouble.

Just before I receive a load of further abuse ask yourselves the following question:

'What did Spurs pay for Keane, Palacios, Bentley and others?' Then ask yourself when was the last time Levy lost millions on a player. Remember Levy paid £17m for Bentley, £9m for Hutton, £12m for Keane, £12m for Palacios and £13.8m for Pavlyuchenko. I am reliably informing you that we are selling them for a fraction of the total we paid and you tell me they are over priced.

In respect of Affellay he is a bargain price but will sign for that figure. Do you think Ruiz is worth £30m ?

Please stop being ignorant ranters and start posting responses with some substance.

Agree0 Disagree0

You so called Spurs fans who whinge and moan and write your grey immature replies are irrelevant. You make a pathetic attempt to belittle the transfer figures, but you actually show your ignorance. Why is it so hard to believe that Keane, Palacios and Bentley are worth around half of the total
we paid for them? Why do you feel that the top goalscorer of a Champions League Quarter finalist who suddenly be worth slot less than the attractive figure of £13.8m that Levy paid for him?

Next let's look at the transfers coming in. You talk of Affelay being too cheap at £5m and you are right as he is worth nearer £12.5m. However Barcelona will sign Fabregas and hardly need Affelay when they have Busquets, Iniesta, Masherano, Xavi, Keita, Thiago, Hleb and the incoming Fabregas. Immediate cash flow is also a concern as they finalise the deal with the scum, and this immediate payment will help finance the deal.

Sadly I feel Spurs will try to build around Van Der Vaart and as such 4-4-1-1 will get utilised more and more. With the new strikers coming in I would be disappointed if we didn't go back to 4-4-2 again. Van Der Vaart is a great option if used strategically, but playing him in this stupid 4-4-1-1 shape is not the best option IMO.

Agree0 Disagree0

As u quote-
*****'What did Spurs pay for Keane, Palacios, Bentley and others?' Then ask yourself when was the last time Levy lost millions on a player. Remember Levy paid £17m for Bentley, £9m for Hutton, £12m for Keane, £12m for Palacios and £13.8m for Pavlyuchenko. I am reliably informing you that we are selling them for a fraction of the total we paid and you tell me they are over priced.*****

what a stupid logic is that... Bentley has had terrible few years of his carrier .from being next super star he has become nothing
when we signed him he was one of the hot property thats y we paid 17miln(too much for that time)
dose that mean just coz levy spent this much he will want near abt same amount for him this is so stubid ,,
no one will pay more than 6miln for him oe in a cash+player deal

affelay...god u rated keane more praised than him....he wont be on bargain n even if is ...there r pool,arsenal n other lot of clubs fighting 4 him so y would barca do us a favor?

n u ask is ruiz worth 30miln?

well strikers r not on sell that easy mate ..if there any there is tough competition thats y they r soo much pricey .
n abt rossi at 23mln ...mate if u know anything abt this last January spurs made around 35min+ bid for him...n we were in champions league last 16 he rejected it n now y would villereal would want to take 15miln less for him?

Agree0 Disagree0

Poster - i have seen your response and it is comical to say the least Your opening sentence has you praising yourself for your original post,WTF There was only one person who thought you was talking any sense (i am going with your best friend) The rest of us thought you was talking complete and utter B******s. You know nothing about what is going on , that is a fact I see you did not address your 12 man team in response to your "superb" post.... and so for questioning peoples intellect is nothing short of idiocy.

Agree0 Disagree0

Daily mirror says Levy has hold talks with Hulk´s agent... would be a great signing, but 35 mil is quite expensive..

Agree0 Disagree0

I think that the problem is, we are a very shrewd club and that many transfers for our club is unheard of. I can see a few of those deals happening,

Namely Keane leaving but believe to A.Villa
Hutton to A.Villa
Palacios to Stoke.

I hope we keep Pav as I still rate him, I'd prefer to sell string bean Crouch(Sorry bt it's true)

As for the incomming, I can still see Alvaro Negrado and Diarra as the only two coming in. Failing Negrado, it will probably be Adebayor in the last few days of the window, on loan with option to buy. and maybe Samba if he gets over his injury

Either way Good Luck in your predictions.
Also any realistic time frame on any of the deals?

foxspur

Agree0 Disagree0

That is a bullsh*t but would be nice to be true apart from modric as he is world class

Agree0 Disagree0

More fantasy football as good as it gets 4 the yods u cant get rid of the dead wood to bring in decent players when u do it will to late, picking up everyones cast of

Agree0 Disagree0

Poster go back to Spurs Community, they will believe you there....

Agree0 Disagree0

Once again you reply with complete and utter rubbish. The point which I made is the figures we WILL sell at are much muhc less than the total we paid for those players. Sure Keane has lost his way, as has Bentley and Palacios but that doesnt mean they are suddenly worth £1 or even £3m does it?

If you look at the actual statistic transfer value of each player you will find that the figures I comfirmed that will be paid are actually very close to the statistical values.

If you honestly think people will pay more than £15m for Ruiz or £20 for Hulk then you are foolish.

Remeber the figures quoted and let time demonstrate who has a clue and who is the douche.

Agree0 Disagree0

Poster - I wil be keep reminding you daily that you don't have not a clue and certainly no inside knowledge on transfers Still struggling to come up with an explanation about your 12 man team i see....

Agree0 Disagree0

God this guy is a gem ..
hats off to u man....

while levy has bid 35miln for hulk(assume it true) N EVEN IF NOT chelsea being intrested if we want to sign we must pay BIG MONEY
diarra bid refused they want 20miln for him n is on 120k per week
now we cant swap a player with real thats sure n at least we will have to spend 15miln+ for him if not 20miln

n here is a gem of a guy a *transfer magician* who wont fookin pay a penny over 20miln for hulk,ruiz n all n still he is soooooo confident abt signing them

what r u doing here sir....sack levy our new chairman should be u

Agree0 Disagree0

Be glad when this infant goes back to school

Agree0 Disagree0

Unlikely but good

Agree0 Disagree0

Thank you all for acknowledging my brilliance and accuracy. You said Keane wasn't worth £5m+ and now three clubs are after him, you said Ruiz won't come for £10.5m just you watch. You think the price for Diarra was too low and I say start buying The Time or Telegraph and throw away your copy of the Daily Mail. Soon you will all eat humble pie as the Levy and Redknapp pull off the biggest transfer successes the club has ever known.

Lastly to the person who called me a school kid, shame on you old boy. You see the funny thing is this school kid is brighter, far more accurate and certainly more mature than you. Stop reading the Daily Mail you looted from Tottenham High Road and start providing sensible factual responses instead of pathetic cheap shot insults.

Agree0 Disagree0

For someone who is so "bright" you have still not commented on your 12 man team.... you really are an person Please please move over to the Spurs Community forum , i promise that you will fit right in

Agree0 Disagree0

To the clown that asks again about my 12 man team, you have the intellectual capacity of a highland goat. As you seem to lack the capacity to think for yourself let me help you find the answer you require from the information that you already have. You see when one makes an assumption, and then apportions his stupidity to the origin of the article, he is actually the fool. So slowly for you one last time:

1. The positions are those which are generic to those players.
2. The team formations depends on the opposition and location. Therefore 4-5-1, 4-4-2 & 4-4-1-1 can be selected.
3. Therefore players in the generic categories are selected based on formation.

So in you language just to simplify things, please stop looking at categories and using simple maths to conclude 12 positions. Remarkably you can actually count to twelve, but try to think next time before asking the same question again, particularly when it has already been covered above.

Now back to the transfers expect big news to be announced over the weekend.

Kindest regards
Your Master
The Oracle

Agree0 Disagree0

What a fool. Who's to bet this kid is some 9 year-old posting his weekly-updated wishlist online. Either that or he's on the wind-up.

This Spurs site was a bit crazy and unrealistic before, but I find it hard to believe your not on the piss take.

Martin

Agree0 Disagree0

Dear Martin

You are grey, dull and exceedingly boring. you have nothing better to write than insulting those who bring you real transfer information. This site is here to provide rumour and yet you seem to disagree with every point that people make.

Best we leave the insult tennis here, and let my original post do the talking.

Lastly to all you arm chair fans and shop looting pessimists, have a look in 11 days time and tell me if things didn't start to look a little more accurate.

Agree0 Disagree0

This guy is a buffoon of the highest order, i actually think his older than 9 ,he is just very very sad individual.He obviously very insecure due to the fact that he has to praise himself and refers to people respecting him .I have not seen any of that on this thread.How many times do you think he has pressed the believable icon at the top of the thread (10 ) He is a keyboard warrior who would melt when confronted about his b******t. He has taken 4 days to come up wih a very weak argument for his lack of intelligence when it comes to maths.Once again he has made a comment about this weekend and potential transfers - we all know its not happening.I suggest he changes his sign off from The Oracle to Mr Clueless and The Master to The Butler because even dummys can open a door

I've tried posting the link for the palacios photo 2times and it hasn't been put up, I jus suggest if you want to see it go to google type in planet spurs and look on page 99 on the itk forum, shows a car with the number 1WP outside the britainia stadium. Cheers {Ed001's Note - it's probably because you put the http:// in the link, that just gets swallowed by our spam filter.}

Thers been a lot of discussion that this is a photoshop anyway but we will see. i'd like to keep him, unless his going (and wage bill reduction) helps us bring in better talent

VDV saying modic will not be going anywhere this year. SSN

Believable10 Unbelievable10

The truth about the Modric situation is yet to be played out I think.
If Levy doesnt invest around £50m in the squad AND keep Modric I really cant see us making the CL places this year.
If the offer is right eventually he might well conclude that to add £35m plus to the existing warchest might be the way to go.
Anyway only time will tell as I still think its a 'phoney war' at this stage.
