Good morning.
This might be another ‘Vertonghen’ by the looks of it.
Which is to say that it’s all over bar the fine tuning of the fee. It is important to remember that football player transfers these days are highly complex beasts. And buying or selling with Spurs is not dissimilar to arranging a hire purchase deal on a second hand washing machine.
Lyon goalie Hugo Loris is supposedly happy to get measured up for a Lilywhite shirt with L’Equipe among others suggesting a fee around about the €20m mark.
This would be a super duper addition as the brave new world that the boy Boas is building will almost certainly run what they call in the trade a high line and quite frankly, for all his plus points I’ve seen nippier static caravans than the Bradster.
All this activity and we are still in July? £100k + a week for Bale, silly amounts for Adebayor when it completes, Gylfi joins us for the money. Now we have serious links to Moutinho and Lloris. Can anyone tell me where the ££££££££££££ is coming from????? Not that I am complaining!!
Actually – the real question is why the major change in wage structure???
Would think that de-listing from the stock exchange last season has had a major part to play in this. There’s probably new investment come in, but they don’t have to declare it anymore.
Still hopeful of Lloris, Moutinho, Oscar and Damaio to come in, but who knows. We’re on the up and up and I’m enjoying every minute.
New squad is shaping up..Lloris, cudicini, new young keeper, walker, naughton, kaboul, vertonghen, dawson, caulker, bae, rose, modric replacement, parker, sigurdsson, huddlestone, livermore, sandro, new goal scoring RW, adequate, bale, lennon, defoe, gio. plus room for another defender midfielder and striker in the 25 many squad!
bassong gallas king bentley pienaar and jenas probably wont make the cut for various reasons but will have a few friendlies to prove otherwise
Think the back line although young and exciting looks a bit inexperienced. We looked a bit shaky without Ledley’s influence.
Think we still need an experienced Central defender to hold it all together – but not Gallas, Ledley or Carvalho.
