Tottenham Hotspur: "To Dare Is To Do"

[Twizzle]

yeh, he is definitely consulted but thats about it and they have had their moments from what I've heard especially in the previous transfer window. Harry f**ked up, we got no one and he admitted when the widow closed, we could have got Suarez and we had CL footy but he wouldn't pay what he was worth, so he went to Scousers.

Harry likes to look for bargains and wont pay market price, which he calls overs, whereas Levy has more ambition and believes if we want to be a top 4 team we need to pay the type of money and wages that top 4 teams pay (to an extent)

Harry probably had more of a say at other clubs but Levy is the man at Spurs.

Personally I dont believe Harry is a top 4 team manager, he's good at avoiding relegation and getting teams into the top half of the ladder and I think that is his strength. If Harry goes onto manage England it could be a good thing for spurs but that may also depend on who replaces him.

God damn it, was excited for that

 

[Twizzle]

so Adebayor huh ?

we pay him €75K a week while Citeh still pay him €105Ka week

this is what happens when you pay silly wages, not even Madrid thought he was worth that much

not 100% done just yet

 

[hellteam]

Still not 100 percent sold on him.... though he will like having a manager consistently complimenting him (like Redknapp will)

 

[Twizzle]

Dan the man hopped in his private plane this morning and took off for Portugal.

Wonder who his target is :-k

Falcao says the Metro.

 

[Twizzle]

another media outlet says the Hulk

we dont even know if its another striker, assuming Ade is done

no one at the club knows either, probably know by this time tomorrow

 

[HowHigh]

He'd be a good singing, on loan i'm assuming?

 

[Twizzle]

Ade is on loan and hopefully we buy another one, we wont go for Llorente or similar now

one tall and one No 9 I would think, I cant see us signing 2 talls

who knows

 

[boxhead]

I think if we keep Defoe and he finds form, him and Adebayor should fix our striker issues - at least for this year. Adebayor is too good a striker to be doing nothing at City, I am very glad that we have him and I think he will be an awesome buy.

I thought Falcao re-signed for Porto at the end of last season though, and he's suppossed to have a massive buy-out clause? Mind you though, if we managed to sign either Falcao or Hulk I would be jumping up and down like a mad-man.
On that note, I do recall Twiz that you said Harry wanted Adebayor but Daniel wanted a younger striker right?

 

[Twizzle]

those buy out clauses only apply to teams within their competition, doesn't apply to overseas teams

if Danny boy has hopped on his jet to go and talk with someone means he got past first base and has already put some type of proposal to his agent and lets face it, Falcao would only warm the bench at Chel$ki

I didn't think of it that way, I still don't really know how transfer negotiations work in sport, let alone football. So what you are saying is that because Levy is going over there to see a player or their agent/club, that probably means negotiations are in the advanced stage? If that is the case, and it is Falcao or Hulk, then I think Spurs fans around the world will all be getting very nervous.....because either of them would be massive signings!

 

[Twizzle]

we live in hope

 

[boxhead]

Definitely. Diarra looked as good as signed but it looks like that has been called off - it was the same with Leandro. Unless I'm wrong and we are still working on both of them?
If we do sign Falcao or Hulk I will go nuts. But I have severe doubts as to whether either would happen.....

 

[Twizzle]

Diarra is just waiting on Levy to sign off, he is a very difficult person to deal with, the only thing that will stop it from happening is if we find a better target

alot of outgoings have been agreed, Palacios, Dos Santos, Hutton, Crouch and Keane were all agreed then Levy added extra shit after they had been agreed and just maybe some of this could blow up in his face, so much so that Stoke may have already moved on from Palacios and Crouch for 20mill which is a f**king bargain for us

 

[Twizzle]

for example Dos Santos was done to Undies then Levy wanted 40% sell on which devalues the player quiet alot, so that deal is going nowhere and it was worth about 13 or 14 mill

Ah that's good, so Diarra basically is a done deal. Just him and Adebayor would probably tide over most Spurs fans. What do you mean Levy added extra sh*t after they were agreed, do you mean like he wanted a better deal for them? I agree, Crouch and Palacios at 20 million would be massive for us. I hope that it doesn't fall through!
