Sorry. I am missing something obviously? You are all getting excited about signing a player who has an ACL injury and cannot take a medical? We got a misfiring striker and another who is now liable to get malaria anytime and will still likely go ACN and we are all thinking that this is OK? Obviously I am on the wrong planet. We need Bony so why and the Italian guy Destro Soldado and Adeybayor ain't going to cut it and 99.9% of you know that so why are we getting excited about JR? And when is it likely he'll be fighting fit again and idea or update on that?

Adebayor will go to the ACN but obviously if we sign bony then he's not going to the ACN? well he is, so we'd be in the same position come january. j-rod is a QUALITY signing, COYS :)

Adebayor has retired from Togo has he not?

Didn't ade come out of international retirement? Also isn't the asking price for Bony 24 million? If your saying go get him at that price you must be on glue!

Rodriguez is young and talented, yes coming back from serious injury but hopefully will mean the price tag is more reasonable and if Poch wants him why not?

Schneiderlin will be a good signing if we get him although 20m seems expensive.

I can see why Poch would go for these guys, both play used to playing in his system so transition will be accelerated.

I think we just need to trust our new manager with an emphasis on TIME!

Is Jay Rodriguez a quality signing.?

He only produced last season, the season before he scored 6 goals.
Personally I'm not convinced, I hope he proves me wrong obviously providing we sign him.

I guess its a question of if you support the manager and his plan. Obviously JRod fits and performed within that plan, when fit.

I agree to a certain extent YC but is everyone not getting a bit ahead of themselves, Poch is record is not great he again had 1 good season at Southampton only won 36% of games at Espanyol.

I'm backing him all the way but I honestly think fans are thinking he's going to work wonders.

I guess it depends on your expectations. I expect us to finish somewhere between 5th-7th this coming season. There is simply too much to do to re-establish the team and then push on for Top 4 in my opinion.

Yes we have a lot of typical Spurs getting carried away - MoPo has done very little as a manager so far. Yes he may bring us some more attractive football (hopefully) but, he has no experience when it comes to our level of top 4-6 and, we need to see how the system works for us anyway.
We're all supporting him but I'm not proclaiming him as the saviour and chosen one just yet and I think our track record says as much about why as his does!
As for signing a player with a torn cruciate - ridiculous given our aspirations as fans but shows the level of our board's willingness to match them for a while. Stadium and balance sheet are the priorities.

I agree with you YC hopefully we can finish 5th - 7th & push on next season, I personally think Liverpool & Everton will struggle with the additional European games this season like we have of late, Manchester United will be a totally different team this year, I expect them to be in the top 3 this season as I can see them making a few more top signings before the window closes
