Haven't seen a thread on Spurs here to date. Good signing in Paulinho, hopefully turns out to be a good bit of business. I'm sure Sandro will help him settle in and if they click I can see them forming a great partnership. Hopefully he won't turn out to be another Palacios or Hossam Ghaly. Still need a couple of top strikers IMO, a centre half and it is vital Bale is held onto. Levy won't give up easy though as he proved with Modric last summer. Anyway good start to the summer window from AVB

Speculation is rife that Spurs have signed two 17 year olds from Dinamo Zagreb for a combined fee that could rise to 17 million Stg. Tin Jedvaj , a centre half & Alen Halilovic an attacking midfielder , the latter has played Champions league football & is already a full international - one or both of whom could be loaned back to Dinamo for the upcoming season. |

Soldado is a class act but perhaps Villa's signature is more achievable. Danny Rose as a left full might be recalled from Sunderland although Spurs seem pretty keen to sell him. |

BB I am sorry you seem to be having a bad day.....hope it improves.
I admire and respect your passion for your Club , but will respond on one or two inaccuracies in your statement.
I am (sadly) too grown up and do not "hate" Spurs (or any person).....it is just banter that was started over 30 years ago.
As for "never saw a guy get along so badly with his brother in law in my life" ........I wasn't aware you knew us both.
I met him shortly after I met my girlfriend in 1979 (who became Mrs.Hornet) and he was a passionate Spurs fan (like your goodself). Six months later I was visiting him daily in a London hospital as he was dying from lung cancer. Somehow his intensive treatment/ God's intervention stunned his medical team and he recovered to lead a healthy life (even fathering another child despite being told he was sterile after the gruelling chemo treatment). He sadly passed away 12 years ago from a heart attack brought on by an enlarged heart as a result of his earlier treatment. We had enjoyed many great family holidays together and I even allowed him to wear his Spurs rosette at my wedding. I carried his coffin at his funeral wearing my Watford rosette.His children (and grandchildren) are Spurs/Watford fans and they regularly attend Watford games with my family.
Sorry to bore you , but although Football is important........it's not THAT important.

Real & Barca seem be the teams that have little difficulties in attracting players from other teams including United , Liverpool & Arsenal , the attractions are myriad - huge salaries , vibrant cities , practically guaranteed titles & Champions League football every season. Hopefully Gareth Bale will remain for at least one more season as he appears to be a reasonably grounded individual , AVB seems to be the right man for the job & hopefully Spurs will make further progress under his stewardship - perhaps Gareth shares that view ! Let's not forget that Gareth also turned down a move to United when he was a 17 year old player with Southampton ! |

wouldn't the football world be a very boring place if all your intentions for it came true ...send all the top quality to the best/richest clubs and to hell with the rest? Modric was the one who wanted to leave and fought hard to do so , he whined and went on strike and complained and moaned to get what he wanted and then ended up on the bench . Fvck him the littel rat faced twerp! Bale does not appear to be like that at all, new family, only 23 and has earned and won all the plaudits this year as a player. It seems like he is still improvong and in the right environment right now to get even better on his football education. Why chnage this environment? Would it not be a better feeling for a person to earn the right to play in the CL rather than move club to do so? Is it not a bit of a hollow victory ...say if Bale went to a CL club after having failed to earn that right with Spurs? he will get to play CL one way or another next year . I 'd like to think that Spurs will earn it ( Not buy it) and Bale might even stay another year. If not he will be off and he will go with all our fans best wishes. This is an exciting time to be at Spurs , with AVB , new signings and the new stadium on it's way. Maybe he has a bit of loyalty? God forbid that there are any players left with that. You mention Carrick , great player , we got big money for him ...probably more than he is worth , we were indeed a selling club . The dynamic has changed since then ....the sale of berba and Robbie with him is the watershed mark for that and we learned a big lesson there. Hopefully we will not bow like that again ------------- "in di cup for Tottinghang!" |

I don't think any Spurs fan can relax until the season starts & we see Gareth lining up in a Spurs jersey , on the bright side Gareth hasn't to date agitated for a move although his agent seems to be quite active in this regard - only to be expected unfortunately from a breed whose raison d'être is to line their own pockets. Real seemed to have pulled out of the race pro tem & a Moyes led United may not initially be a good bet , although football is thankfully a game that cannot be predicted it appears to be a reasonable bet that Spanish & German teams may dominate the Champions league over the next few years & of such teams only real & Barca can afford Gareth ( perhaps his transfer value falls outside even Bayern's scope ? ). The reality for Spurs fans is of course that the views of other teams fans as to whether or not he should move is of little or no consequence as long as we see him in a Spurs jersey next season as he can only be a vital cog if we hope to push on . |

(3) Not sure if we need to keep him until we are sure we have new players in ....as he just might click again ?? wishful thinking I know but it would be worth a punt holding onto the lanky bollix if weren't on such high wages . ------------- "in di cup for Tottinghang!" |

Besiktas made a bid apparently. Besiktas have made a bid for Tottenham striker Emmanuel Adebayor, according to the Turkish club's director Ahmet Piper. The Togo international struggled for form in the Premier League last season, bagging just five goals in 25 appearances following his £5million move from Manchester City. Adebayor initially shone at White Hart Lane during a loan stint from City, only for the scoring exploits which earned him a permanent deal with Spurs to evaporate. He could now be offered a route to pastures new, with Piper claiming that they have tabled an offer to Tottenham for the former Arsenal man. Piper told Turkish news outlet Fanatik: "It is certainly true that we are looking at the idea of a transfer. We have made a serious bid for Adebayor. "That, in turn, has given us a figure for the player, which is slightly above the amount that we imagined. "However, making a signing as big as this immediately is nothing but a dream. "Negotiations always take a long time. I hope that we will get a chance to have a meeting soon." |

In fairness to Chadli, he is easily one of the best wingers in the Dutch league and is a regular in a very good Belgian side. At 23, he is a very good signing for the money Spurs paid for him!

Chadli has played for one of the top Dutch sides of recent years & is a regular on an the extremely talented Belgian national side & I'm quite sure that Vertonghen & Dembele have been consulted by AVB on the players talent - so is Barna Bee's assertion that Chadli " might " ( note the word - might ) shine this season be a reasonable assertion - I think the answer must be Yes.

Roberto Soldado ...like him but i don't think we are going to get him .....at 28 Levy is not going to spend the reported 25 million they are looking for so i see Liverpool getting him failing a miracle . Pity as he has a great record and would be a great addition. Looks like all the talent will be accounted for again in this window before Spurs finally decide they need to spend big to get the player they need. ....thats the symptom of not qualifying for CL ....unless you can splash mega bucks you're stuck with tier 2 strikers. ------------- "in di cup for Tottinghang!" |

I have a feeling AVB may be planning on playing Bale as a striker next season. It would explain why he has signed another winger as opposed to a striker and why he does not seem in any major panic to buy a striker. I could be way off the mark but it's just the feeling I get. |

100% another striker is required but I can't see that happening until they get rid of Adebayor. Levy will want him off the wage bill before he will do any further business in that department i think. The speculation of him heading off to Turkey seems to have gone away |

On his day he can be good yes but his good days are very few and far between now particularly last season. He scored 5 goals in all competitions last season which is simply not good enough for a team competing for a CL place. On top of that his work rate is pathetic. If he loses the ball he stands up with his hands on his hips and the majority of the time he looks disinterested. The reliance on Bale to score goals in the second half of last season was crazy. |

Latest round up see Spurs getting close to signing Soldado , really hope this one comes true ....also meantion of Lisandro Lopez from Lyon and James mcCarthy. I would like the McCarthy one to come off if we can use a few players in a swap deal. We are very heavy with midfielders right now so there is a list of 3/4 that could go Livermore, Parker, Thud, anyway We might also look to move on one of Siggy Dempsey Adebayor and or Defoe Interestingly if we could keep them all we could have enough to mount another challenge in the Europa league while maintaing a consistant chaleenge in the league...but that's alot of wages ------------- "in di cup for Tottinghang!" |

Despite the interest from Barry Town FC he has decided to stay at Spurs. Well at least that's what I have heard. |

Hah. Like Gareth Bale either 1) speaks a word of Spanish or 2) believes a word of what is written in Marca. I wouldn't even trust the results in Marca, cf: Pepe's goal v Sociedad on the 18th September 2010 awarded by them to Ronaldo. -------------

| Good run out. Easy 6-0 win in the end. Pitch was a disgrace. Good to see Townsend play a part and get himself on the scoresheet. |

€100m bid from Real turned down by Spurs as reported by the Guardian. Levy has lost the plot...and more importantly Bale is ripping! ------------- "One of the dominant facts in English life during the past three quarters of a century has been the decay of ability in the ruling class."

Anybody else think we should take the quoted £85M for Bale - if we can get Modric as part of the deal, get Soldado and one other striker I think we would be a better team for it. Bale is definitely at his peak value right now - I rate him highly but not in the same league as Messi, Ronaldo ------------- |

First of all, there is no way Modric would go back to Spurs. He would not take a step backwards in terms of his career. He was very good for Madrid towards the end of last season and you would assume he will look to improve on that and cement a regular first team place for Madrid this season. Secondly, Spurs should not sell Bale to Madrid this season. Spurs look to be on the verge on signing Soldado. They already have 2 new signings in and are close to signing a promising young Romanian defender too in Vlad Chiriches. If Spurs want to get Champions league football they need to hold on to Bale for this season. They were very close last season with Bale so to sell him would be a massive step in the wrong direction. With the new players and probably Soldado they will be in a much better position to get Champions league football. Sell him next year with Champions league football got. They will be a more attractive option to potential new players of a higher calibre playing Champions league football than if they were in the Europa League. |

Good to see the Saldado deal is finally done and dusted (well subject of him passing a medical). Deal is apparently very close also for a Romanian CB from Steua Bucharest. |

I support Palace and was looking into getting tickets for the match. £45 a ticket and you have to buy a second one too. So £90 to see Palace, it's fecking Palace like. ------------- 'The younger generation as in 17 -25 are certainly gayer than their predecessors.
