Hallo.
I trust UK viewers are enjoying the heat. In some parts of Scotland men are turning from grey to white as they prepare to burn.
Speaking of getting burnt, Jan Vertonghen has an interview in Nieuwsblad today. It emerges that Levy & Co. were over on Monday, but the deal is far from done.
“The chairman of Tottenham was Monday in Amsterdam. But they are still out.”
It weighs on you?
“Not really. I did not expect that I would feel so little stress. Otherwise I stay another year at Ajax and I can then leave a free transfer. “
Tottenham will miss the Champions League. Plays a role?
“With me, but perhaps at Tottenham. It might affect their budget.The chances are that there does not seem the first week and a half clarification. But I want to prepare for the new season to startwith my new team. “
Is it true that you said to Ajax, ‘I want to Tottenham if I’m not going anywhere?’
“So I have not said. I said my preference goes to Tottenham. On my feeling. I feel best at that club and I am a feeling person. They have already invited me and want to act fast. They say I’m their only option. That’s a compliment. “
BIYODC!
I don’t know why i even bother still thinking on this, but I really do wish we would sign Hazard. I realise there is a slim to none chance of this happening but it feels like such a long time since we got a player who is truly exciting. Aprt from the fact we would then have the best midfield in England. And he scored more goals last season then Remy who we want as a forward… Ahh one can dream. If only Jan could talk to him when he joins… If he joins…
We Can sign Hazard or we can…well this is a sign that Hazard…..

Some movement out of squad apparently. Saha and Nelson have been released. May mean deal done for CB and a forward.

Or it might just mean that someone at the club finally realised that they were both were a bit pants.
Is there not one week – either during or between seasons – when supporting Spurs doesn’t involve some kind of mental torment or mangling of your hopes?
We targeted the Champions League and, by an evil twist, we didn’t get it. Can we at least target one decent player and sign him without our intentions unravelling? Can we?
Because you just know that, once we’ve fought off the invasion of reptoids descending in their star-cruisers, made our way through the plague of scorpions, defeated Cthulhu, successfully crossed the Zone of Absolute Terror and finally got the player to sit down with a contract in front of him that he wants to sign… you just know that the pen you give him will turn out to be as dry as a nun’s gusset.
