I sincerely hope not!

Did you know that Arsenal are closing in on deals for Richard Cresswell and Dele Adebola.

Jonjo Shelvey joining is about as likely as Spurs signing Messi and England beating Brazil 5-0 in the final of the World Cup!
Or damaio, Olympic stadium etc etc. pot and kettle oracle
Eds any genuine spurs targets?
{Ed002's Note - These are the players that Spurs have shown some level of interest in over recent months. Most predate the change of manager but were from a time when the club knew that Tim Sherwood would be moving on:
LB: Kolasinac, Radu, Bertrand, Cuadrado (but Barcelona are looking to replace Alves with him), Moreno (looks very unlikely)
CB: Lovren, Caulker, Mangolas, Hecotor Moreno, Savic
MF: Dzemaili, Aaron Hunt, Lallana (if Lamela is sold), Sadio Mané (interest might well have gone), Onazi, Pjanic (really, really unlikely), Fischer (really, really unlikely).
FW: Lacazette, Morata, Emenike, Jay Rodriguez (if he can prove his fitness), Konoplyanka, Lukaku (unlikely), Hernandez (but there is significant interest from elsewhere), Jackson Martinez (looks like he has nearly agreed to a move elsewhere), Heung Min Son

You must be kidding! I'd rather get Jake Livermore back,or even John Pratt!

Gazyod you have the audacity to hold me to ransom over two things from 10 that didn't happen.
1. Damiao - Are you suggesting it wasn't literally a done deal. Even the club has confirmed subsequently that they were shocked he didn't sign back then. More importantly I stated that I thought it was our biggest mistake, and no one was happier than me when it fell through. What has he done since I ask you.
2. Olympic Stadium - The KSS plans for a 56,000 seater stadium have been scrapped, and Populus has been brought in to put forward fresh ideas only a few months ago. As I said all along, this is all a clever ploy to engage premium commercial and residential property on what would otherwise be a low cost site. If we regenerate the area with all the funds from the major and Haringey, the value of the land we have left will be worth a fortune.
Drum roll. Levy has the funds and we move into the Olympic Stadium as West Ham are relegated.
Tell me again, can you see the new stadium at White Hart Lane? People keep reporting it is being built, and my eye sight is fine as I pass there each week.
So as crazy as I am, don't write off the Olympic Stadium just yet.

Oracle you are soo wrong. Work on the stadium will start as soon as we get the cpo granted, that's what is holding it up. We will never move into the Olympic stadium.

2 from 10 Oracle I think your failure rate is a tad higher than that . I'm still waiting to hear the January announcement of Darlow which you had as 100% done back then. Looking a little more possible this summer, but still not 100%.
On the subject of john joe and not oracles success rate, with all the recent talk of who every one thinks will be leaving, if siggs + Livermore leave is he the worst back up player, assists and scores. We have no champions league so forget world class signings, his used to premier league and young enough. I think if the price right why not
