Good afternoon.
We play Newcastle United tomorrow teatime and the transfer window doesn’t close until the 31st of the month but judging by snippets from a good many sources last night and this morning we could still be in for more shocks than Fabrice Muamba got at The Lane.
The chairman I am told was in talks yesterday with Bilbao for the services of Fernando Llorente who according to The Daily Mail has a £28.2m buy-out clause in his contract. The 27-year-old would be just the ticket having burst the onion sack 30 times from 53 appearances.
Moutinho is rumoured to be in London. We are based in London. Could these two seemingly innocent facts be part of something bigger, more sinister than sheer coincidence?
And lastly a tidbit for the anxious and desperate to scream for Levy & Co.’s blood yet again …Jamie Redknapp has revealed in the same paper…
My dad, Harry, was driving the Tottenham chairman mad trying to get them to buy this boy [Santi Cazorla]: he is top class, a special footballer. He’s another Cesc Fabregas, a lovely slider of a through ball who will create chances.
Llorente is the best striker we’ve been linked with by far. He would be a worthy addition to our clan of top quality strikers.
Er….
could be faster, but would have him in a heartbeat
Err
Well we’ve been linked with every top striker in world football
Then quickly the link is broken
Less chat more action
For a midget Defoe is quality but I like my striker to be taller than my children
Must be Bilbao Baggins eh
I like my striker to be able to score goals.
Pfft. Instead of rehashing all this ITK nonsense, perhaps you could just update with a daily blog consisting of the words ‘Nothing’s happened’ and then we can all get on with the important business of moaning and soul-searching down here.
:daumen:
Stop teasing me with these tasty little morsels. Am getting all pent up. Make something happen arrrggggghhhhhhhh
HH, pretty poor taste joke about Muamba imho. You’re better than that.
Is he ?
Nope
I’ll second that.
Yeah HH, what a shocking thing to say ;)
Agree. Stepped over the line with that one. Why publish when you have nada news. Get a grip
…we could still be in for more shocks than Fabrice Muamba got at The Lane….
:shifty: :-p I did chuckle at that one! Oh what an insensitive fellow I am.
Yeah, come on – he was heartbroken to have had to retire…
That was skirting the edge of taste I’ll have to admit. But so is my life these days. I empathize.
Blog’s going well, ‘Arry…
There was a time when people were more relaxed about what they could say. Now we have to contend with the speak police. I wondered how long it would take for someone to take offence on behalf of someone they probably have never met. I’m sure there was no malice in the admittedly poor joke. I do wish people would get of their high horses and worry about more important things.
