Hello.

A number of Spurs fans have been reported to be, ‘devastated, but stable’  this morning after discovering that Eden Hazard won’t be a Tottenham player in time for Sunday’s game against  Stevenage.

“Of course. It’s always more fun when it’s beautiful [the football]. In addition, at Arsenal, there is a coach and French players. And Thomas Vermaelen,”

Hazard confessed to Sport Foot Magazine.

“There are several clubs that interest me in England and Arsenal is really a part. That’s the championship where I think I can express myself better. Where I can learn more, too…”

Arsenal and indeed Chelsea were relentlessly linked with this Adel Taarabt 2.1 for the bulk of last year. Chelsea saying that they had scouted him 20 times. 20 times! What were they waiting for, balloon animals, close up magic or his famous ‘Vera Lynn’ impression? 

No, I think Chelsea’s sluggishness was to do with Mata being a superior bet and the lurking specter of the Financial Fair Play regs.

With Arsenal the problem is twofold of course. Aunty Wenger doesn’t like spending Christmas so how quite how he’s going to be coerced into dropping €30m is anyone’s guess.

If this is anything to those of you joining us grown ups late in the game, it’s a gentle introduction to the world of light whoring  that is modern football.

    (first post here so be gentle) This kid has at least won the title and Les Bleu of the year last year – at 21 does look the real deal.

        Very good player! when you have a player who can beat 2-3 men @ a time that makes it much easier for the rest of his team mates, it just needs a good manager/coach to discipline the player as to when and how, like Alex ferguson did with Ronaldo !Levy should stop farting about and if he is genuine in wanting to possibly join spurs we should grab it ASAP ! players like that dont come round that often, especially @ such a young age where virtually every top club wants him !

          I’m sure Harry will have had a very detailed analysis from Mr Joe Cole as to whether or not Hazard is the real deal.

    The rest of the quote goes…

    “That’s the championship where I think I can express myself better. Where I can learn more, too,” Hazard added.

    “[It’s] difficult to explain why. [It’s a] question of feeling. The level of the matches, the atmosphere in the stadiums.

    “This is still well above anything Ive experienced so far in France and that attracts me.”

    “the atmosphere in the stadiums. This is still well above anything Ive experienced so far in France and that attracts me.”

    That rules out the Woolwich Wanderers then…

    I can only go by what I have seen of him via youtube. Granted youtube could make me look good, but he looks a very clever player with lots of skill. Correct me if I am wrong but do we not have a £5m sell on clause for Adel with QPR? So we did’nt actually lose out on him. And at 21 years of age time will be on our side.

    If Danny can weave his magic on this one, I for one would like to give him a chance.

    Mr bean was at his usual best last night. He saw that Ibrahimovic was off side, which granted he was by at the most four inches. But did not see Djourou try to shag Ibra in the penalty area, superb.

    Artita and Szczedisney still think they have a chance, hilarious.

    Sunderland will knock them out of the cup this weekend.
    Could being a Spurs supporter be any better right now?

    Every year for the past 14, we have had the pleasure of seeing those bunch of arrogant git’s get turned over by inferior continental opposition. Sometimes it comes in Feb, other’s, a little later, but it happens every year.Why can’t we call this day-Embarrassing North London Day?

    “I have seen [that game], yes,” he said. “Milan had a lot of the ball and Tottenham caught them on the break at the end of the game.

    “You never decide when you break, you break when you can. It was a game which was vastly dominated, especially in the second half, by Milan.

    “We will not decide at the start of the game that we will sit in our half if we have to, like Tottenham did. We will do it and then try to catch them on the break.

    “But at the start we will try to get out of our own half and try to get up there and play. Spurs won the game when they were dominated, but that is football today.”
