Maybe Willian But Certainly No Leandro Damiao

Good evening.

The boss gave a presser earlier in the day here are my thoughts upon it.

Everybody tells you that modern football is rubbish, I’d argue we’re making real progress – if only in the evolution of football speak or as my old man called it, ‘footballees.’ Where we were once told of endless poorly parrots, spoke to men who claimed to have orbited the earth’s moon and of course more recently survived The Day Of The Triffics, we are now living in an age where Michael Dawson is recognised as being ‘a player of an immensely human dimenson.’

And they are wasting all that money looking for life on Mars. I tell you this mush; we’ve got all you could ever want right here.

For all the grim emissions online today from the fretters and bed wetters, it puts things into perspective when your hear players spoken about so respectfully. Who knows, maybe this is what intelligent people do. You know, show some in the hope they receive some back.

Defoe is so obviously a man waiting to hear if he’s had a stay of execution. What does Villas-Boas say? He acknowledges his qualities and again says nothing that could be vaguely twisted to convey any devaluation in the eyes of the Club.

Modric is clearly still being held hostage in a dimly lit cellar at an undisclosed address in Enfield. That’s the spirit.

Willian is clearly being negotiated for. Is this guy all that? Well, interesting that the boss repeated the fact that he wanted him when he was managing Cheatski.

Leandro is a dead duck. Think rice pancakes. Think Hoi Sin sauce and finely cut scallions and cucumber. You’re thinking of what someone else is having for their dinner. Adebayor, you better have a belter, old girl.

      Spot on fella. It’s waiting for the right incumbent is all.

      There was a time Asamoah Gyan wanted to play for Spurs. I did think he was good at everything, maybe that’s why he wasn’t a brilliant striker. Plus, playing in the center forward position he wore number 3 or was it number 2? Either way, the guy is so powerful that it is hard for one defender to contain him, so even if he wasn’t scoring goals, the field would open up for others to do damage. Defoe is not as agile, powerful and is even shorter than Gyan but he can score goals. Regardless of his goal scoring ability, his lack of height and power has caused him to miss out on several other goals, so he can’t start in the lone striker position. Will Ade be motivated throughout the season? Makes you wonder why we never treated Pav better.

    Maybe I should become a Leyton Orient fan.

    Only a handful of people know what’s going on and none of them are hear however the debates are great and we’ll find out soon enough. My gut feeling based on nothing is one more signing

    Willian looks to me to be exactly the same type player that Dos Santos is…..a sort of Anderson lite

  • aidyj7 says:

    I think AVB conducted himself well, not whoring other teams players openly but I think you can guess the wilian is possibly a goer buy what he did or didn’t say. I still think we’l get a striker but who i’m not sure. I think we need one more or someone who can play the role I’m probably in more need of a bird at the moment, she’d keep me off newsnow. I should realise nothing really happens til the 31st and then its last minute bids for charlie adam, as long as I don’t have to go though shit like that again

      :shocked2:

      I wonder why we so quickly gave up on the attacking midfielder Dzagoev and the striker Levandowski. Quite strange. I would still like to see Pjanic and M’Vila sporting Lilywhite even if Willian isn’t signed. As for getting a striker, well, I hope if we refuse to treat Gio better and he gets traded to Inter or Sevilla that he comes back to destroy Spurs in the Champions League, and that is IF we make it back there anytime soon.
