Tottenham should have about 75 players on their senior roster before the season opener.

Transfer rumours in football are the most unreliable in world sport. They are to be laughed at more than anything.

LOL @ Torres to Chelsea. In England he's in a group with the likes of Ronaldo, Gerrard and Rooney in a group titled "not for sale".

Oh and Titus Bramble.

Matiudi is a DM from memory, Arsenal have also been linked with the captain Perrin who is also a DM.

I can't argue that we need to sign Nasri + another midfielder following the Hleb and Flamini sook-off.
