Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit

[Syn]

if Alan Sugar gave a shit about what Tottenham (in general) thought about him, he wouldn't keep praising Wenger at every opportunity. I don't think he particularly cares what Levy thinks of him either. Maybe he's right. Maybe not. I don't know, thought it was interesting anyway.

Because he doesn't have the balls to have a go at Levy. Picked the easy target because otherwise he`d probably be banned from the Shite hart lane

Probably the case. Think he also had some personal beef with Villas Boas as well.




On to other news, we can certainly cross out Javi Martinez from the potential DM/CB targets. Just been stretchered off with what looks like a horrible knee injury.

If you want to classify the likes of Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar and Muller as out & out strikers then you have to put in Alexis for us.

And the throw Theo in that mix too, because he wants to play up front!

We're one good CB short. And we're probably going to sign one.

Can't see anyone coming before KO Eagles but I see us doing a little more this wind....people have a point to say no one/CB of quality would want to come and warm the bench but we need to bring in someone because even reserves are short....WUMger loves a loanee and I won't be surprised if we go down that path

In other news...we are being linked to Chiek Tiote again. Before you go out to hang yourself.....remember. It may never happen.

Too soon bro.. RW just passed a few days back

More`s the pity. I genuinely loved the guy

The curse of Aaron Ramsey strikes again - that's Robin Williams and Lauren Bacall he's taken out now with that Community Shield goal...

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Regardless of how much we have or haven't spent, the failure for us as a top club to secure a top CF is a little farcical left to drag on this long.

Bayern Munich were the exception before signing Lewandowski, but we don't really want to compare ourselves to them do we?....and Muller has had the canny knack of not being quite a forward but still producing the goods of one for some time now.

As so many of us are in agreement that World class players aren't attained easily....I hope fans feel the same when we finally have a world class player....and a team like Manure come sniffing around him and we say NO SALE because players that good aren't attained easily.

Monreal must never cover at CB. Sagna playing CB is one thing, Chambers another, but please never Monreal again.

This summer has gone swimmingly, the only thing I'm bothered about is padding out the defence because we are laughably short there. WUMger is still alive and well despite all the good we've seen so far.

Yep

That's why you need to have someone good enough to actually challenge the first choice CBs for a place in the first team. If you have someone who is nowhere near the level of the first two like Vermaelen, he'll know that he will only play if there's an injury and wont keep his place. Obviously nobody's going to be happy to do that. It's different from midfielders and forwards because they'll always get some minutes as a sub but generally managers don't play around with CB subs or even rotate them much because you want a settled back-line.
