Also whats the point in havinga player like Bentley whos best attribute is crossing and hasnt got muxh else and not have a tall big striker who will get in the box and head the ball in. Eto'o wouldnt do that so i dont think that team would work Jono.

Id like us to line up like this

_____________Goalkeeper__________

Hutton___Woodgate__Centre Back__Bale

___Jenas/Zok___Diarra___Huddlestone

_____________Modric______________

_________Bent__Keane____________


I think that would work, people will say we have no width in midfield but with Bale and Hutton bombind on forward wed have plenty of width wouldnt be our main focal point in attack, it would be getting the ball into the feet of Modric and Huddlestone who can slip balls behind the defence for Bent to chase or passign the ball to Keane and allowing the midfield to make runs past him and he can lay the ball off to them.

Palace determined to get fair price for Bostock.

Good info, 100% reliable........


i dont post much info and only like to when im sure its very very good info and mabe only once or twice removed from the horses so to speak.


ramos in spain on holiday...but a working holiday, levy ready at a moments notice to fly out and do any deals...ramos looking at spanish goalie (have no name but we have been linked) and a spanish left sider.


Berbatov

been told if someone comes in for him before start of june for the money we want he goes ....if they dont come in with the money he stays.....that is the bottom line and berbatov accepts this as he respects ramos and understands that every player will have to do a full pre season under his regime....so i can assume from that our business will be conducted quickly (subject to those at the euros)


ramos has told levy that he cant have a business and a champs lge football club. ramos told levy everyone is gonna have to wipe their mouths of any profits for at least two seasons and even go as far as to go into an operating loss 'gambling' on breaking the top 4. ramos has told the board that there is almost a religious fanatacism of support that will go through the roof if we break the top 4 and the money will go through the roof too...its all about the current board taking the risk or not.


only 2 players deemed first squad ability at present. berbatov and woodgate...bale and hutton have the most potential to get into his plans keane steed zok are at best squad if he gets the players he wants ...the rest can fcuk off as far as he is concerned.

ramos doesn't want players that are cast offs from Chelsea etc...he expects the club o challenging to sign the same players that manure and co are after and is confident that his status as a coach can lure some of them to come especially the spanish portugese and S.Americans.

So there you have it.....hope to get some more, sorry there isnt anything more juicy with regards to named names but imho that is great that no names come from ramos as he is really that proffesional.

take it or leave as to what ive said, i know where its from and i know that its good info

some more but from different source, someone i dont know

Bostock:
medical sunday.

fee will be decided at tribunal

Taarabt:
Ramos has told him he wont sell him but has promised him a loan.

It will either be to Bordeaux or a lower half premier league team so he can get some guarenteed games

I think we will be loaning alot of players out, people like Taarabt, Bostock if we get him, maybe even a few of our younger players Danny Rose, Dorian Dervitte and TroyArchiebald-Henville, Pekhart also. I would like to see these players playing regularly even in the Championship so we can see what they are made of.

Please let this rumour be true it would really sure up our defence imagine our centre backs being Woodgate and.............................................Richard Dunne. Apparently he wants to join us so we could ge thim for 5 million or less. This would be a huge signing, both him and Woodgate are 28 so they are still very good defenders with at least 4-5 quality years ahead of them.

That'd be a magnificent signing for Spurs in my opinion. I highly rate Dunne and alongside a fit Woodgate you'd have a very assured defensive duo - a fit replacement for King really.

Would take Dunne too, another who I heard is unhappy with goings on a Man City.


Talksport fellas last night saying Spurs have signed Dos Santos from Barca, apparently the Levy flying out there to sign Etoo was a smokescreen to hide the fact we are going for him.

He scored a hatrick tonite v murica that dos santos. What a class player but i just feel he wont be going anywhere

I hear hes definitely off somewhere, rest of squad arent too keen on him and Barca are worried he'll head the same way as Ronaldinho. (apparently enjoys the Barca nightlife a little too much) Also they have Messi, Bojan, and Henry they are definitely keeping to play his position.

Paper rumour...



If this were to go ahead does it mean...

a) Bales not going to recover in time for the early part of this seasons campaign

b)Bales is going to be playing left mid

c)He doesnt rate Bale

d)Bale and this fellas playing on the left, Gilberto and Steed as back up...

I definitely hope there is some substance behind that rumour.

The papers here in Ireland have him linked to his old manager, Keegan, and possibly Arsenal too. I think he is a very good defender and quite underated.

I hope Spurs dont steal another player from us . In my opinion he is one of the best CB's in the Prem so whoever gets him, it will be a great deal. I just hope its Newcastle!

We are linked with Sevillas Adriano and you are still talking about Richard Dunne? This guy would be a massive signing, having him and Bale on the left would be immence.

You lot are also being linked with Diego Forlan this morning. What do you think of this?

I havent watched him play at all recently but I think he is too quickly dismissed as an option for a Premiership club because of his time at Man U. The guy is a very good goalscorer and given the chance will score whereever he goes, id take him on a free as long as the wages arent to high giving us another striking option.

Is his contract up?
He scored 23 goals this season, he has been consistent for the last few years and even though it didnt work out for him at Man United, he is stil worth the risk. Spurs do love their striking options

I have no idea if his contract is up or not.

He only moved last summer so i dont think it is. Not sure how much he would cost though

He signed last season for 21 million euros
