And they’re off.
I am indebted to a gentlemen I made the aquaintance of last week at t’Reebok who tells me Tottngham Hotspur’s name is doing the rounds as the club that has gone in today for t’Trotters defender.
What class of news is this? In short it fits in with the breaking tale that Arsenal have ‘withdrawn’ their interest in the player. Bizarre gig that. They pitch in with a frankly Mickey Mouse bid and then ‘withdraw’ their interest. Bit like me asking the woman in the shop how much the Cartier watch in the window is, she says fifteen grand and I tell her it looks ‘clunky’ before vacating the premises.
Cahill is no Cartier piece, but he would be a worthwhile addition. As I am sure anyone who witnessed Sunday’s debacle will attest.
Will we land him? When questioned about this last week he looked every inch a man who knew he was off, but was too polite to say so in front of the wide and the worthy before him occupying the Platinum Lounge.
all the done deals will be done today ITK :hae:
After reading that “one in the hole” article copied here for those who missed it:
http://oneinthehole.wordpress.com/2011/08/29/why-harry-redknapp-is-no-longer-the-manager-to-take-spurs-forward/#more-144
We can buy 22 Cahills, but whilst Old Redders is in charge they would be like pearls before swine. We have a con-artist as a manager.
Modric def staying then. Result. We need to get behind him now otherwise December will be as miserable as august
It’s like staying with a bird who keeps sucking your neighbours cock
I predict crouch stays pav goes :hae:
haha (at the first sentence)
Concerning the second sentence: Who cares, theyre both shit and Ade and Defoe should start.
Interesting to see now that VDV is out, how we play.
My team would be simple however:
Bale ____ Ade_______ Lennon
Modric___Parker_____Vdv
BAE____Cahill_King___Corluka
______GOMES________
I must say the article Eastanglianspur linked from “one in the hole” is remarkable. It pretty much sums up everything i feel concerning Redders.
Also, i am shocked to rediscover what he said about tactics:
“You can argue about formations, tactics and systems forever, but to me football is fundamentally about the players,” says Redknapp. “Whether it is 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1, 4-3-3, the numbers game is not the beautiful game in my opinion. It’s 10 per cent about the formation and 90 per cent about the players. If you have the best ones and they do their job, then they can pretty much play any way you want them to.”
No wonder we cant beat crap teams with five-man-midfields at home.
oh, for games where Lennon is shite and we need steel:
replace him with sandro, and push VDV forward in roaming role.
