I don’t know what you’d call this …an exercise in gun jumping or simply endemic of a football transfer rumour market that flat-lined a fortnight ago… but the call I suggest you resist making is to your lover asking for a Tottenham shirt with Hazard on the back for a Valentine’s gift.
Look, the good news is he was asked about us and he didn’t have to suppress giggles. My French is on a par with my English, but even I got that he was flattering about us. Acknowledged we had a great win on Saturday before an enthusiastic crowd, we’ve a decent squad that sort of thing…we’re on the up and up .
“Maybe it will be Tottenham. This is a big English club. I said I will go to England and there are very good players.
I have not signed anything yet. It will happen soon…
Spain is perhaps more my style of play but it must be either Barcelona or Real Madrid. It is therefore limited.”
There is a gulf here between this faint praise and him replying, ‘naturalmente’ when the Burger Man in Paxton Road yells at him, ‘You want onions, Colonel?’
The other issue is of course is that the boy ain’t going nowhere for free. Arsenal were linked with him on an almost weekly basis for the whole of last summer and as you can imagine, the rumoured buy out clause of €30m did nothing to speed up that deal.
My suspicion is that he’s simply engineering a move after neither Cheatski or the lot from Woolwich anything much more than make equiries..
He’s undoubtedly perceived at least as a top, top player™. So whilst it’s not a deal anywhere near as is being suggested/hinted at by some, it does rather reflect we’re almost a big deal these days.
We have just signed Bruno Uvini on loan until the end of the season. He is a CB and Brazil’s under 20 captain.
Cool, nice to see we are not standing still.
I don’t understand this deal, can we play him this season? If so,on what grounds?
Emirates, Goodison, the Bridge, etc etc
:lol:
Arf, arf..sensible answers only etched on the head of a pin..just read the briefing and it makes sense.we can look and evaluate and have first dibs..great move if it works out-great move if it doesn’t.
He`s only here on approval, he can train and learn English but he`s not registered.
Thanks for the update.
Bit like a fish really, if he trains well and copes with the trial games we buy him, if he`s not up to scratch we throw him back. No risk on our part and we might have a gem. Rare type of scenario in todays market.
Yeah ‘specially at Billingsgate
You shall have a fishy, on a little dishy, when the boat comes in.
or five mebee, booger me, like Pet, Bonny lad thoose Spoors dun us bad mun

Sheffield Wed 0-1 Stevenage
West Ham 1-1 Southampton
Birmingham 0-0 Hull
Listening to Moose on TS while walking the dogs..
“And West Ham thump the ball upfield…again!” When exactly did they knock the academy down?” Must have missed that!
When they got fed up with Harry raiding the Academy they decided to close it !
He was really scraping the barrel.
Karen Brady and the two kings have now turned it into a Lap Dancing training centre.
7:30-9:30 Mon-Sat, No Mingers.
Ah, C’mon Raz, we’ve always raided their academy, It’s the law-we take their cream they take our crap, always have always will ;-)
I wondered why Brady was waiting outside, now I know
Taylor sent off again.
Chris Houghton is doing well with B`ham, didn`t have much in the way of funds and they sold about a dozen of the players that were relegated last season, good show CH.
You have to love politicians. Quote from this article.
He [Richard Wilson, lib.dem.] said “not a single affordable home” will now be built[…]
That’s right. Each unit will be priced at South Kensington levels, and nobody will be able to afford them. The club won’t be able to sell a single one. Supply-and-demand will cease to function. Well done, Dick, for spotting that one. Bravo.
