i keep reading that we think a deal for Bale has already been agreed that's why we r spending all this money but I don't agree with that. what about all the tv money for this year, apparently that's above 50mill plus the money D.L puts aside for transfers for the season plus the money from sales.

i just have a feeling that he will stay for one more season, and if we still have not reached CL, which if we can be lucky with injuries plus add Capoue, Contreau(spelling) and Eriksen I believe that fourth is a minimum.

My wish for the season would be to see AVB use the europa and capital one cup for fringe players and keep the first team squad fresh for the league and FA cup, therefore giving the likes of Carroll, Falque, Coulthirst and coubabily(spelling) so much needed first team action.

So you are saying DL is spending money he does not yet have and RM have let GB stay at Spurs till the end of the window for what reason considering they are paying a world record fee for him .
I find the way some people are writing things and guessing things very strange . Have you ever done a jigsaw puzzle because it does not sound like it .
This is DL here we are talking about the man Alan Sugar said was the hardest man he ever had to deal with when he sold Spurs .

Am I the only one that worries Eriksen is overrated and not good enough for a top-4 premiership team. I could be wrong

For £15-16m ish and how decent he had been in Champions League for his age, I wouldn't worry too much. I think he will be top class soon enough.

He ain't overrated mate. He is quality and if I dare say so a typical Tottenham style player.

Ok guys, I promise - no long essay this time, just a very delighted post to say that I hope the rumours about us finally, finally getting involved in the bidding war for the Ajax duo of Toby Alderweireld and Christian Eriksen, are true.

If so, I think these two - and possibly a full back - could well be the missing pieces of the puzzle. I must admit, I don't know a lot about Alderweireld, but like all good defenders, if you don't notice him, he's probably doing a decent job. The fact that he has experience and familiarity with Vertonghen only strengthens the case to investigate him.

But for me, the coup de grace would be Eriksen. Simply a great little player who I think would grace the coveted #10 shirt at the Lane. There have been a lot of rumours about Lamela from Roma, but at his price and given his exposure to the Champions League, for me, and particularly because of the likely cut-price valuation, Eriksen is perfect for Spurs and gives us the playmaker we need.

From Levy's point of view, you couldn't get two more suitable candidates. Young, very capable and brim full of sell-on value. Mmmmm. Can't believe I'm nearly purring over these two! C'mon Daniel, I know it's asking a lot, but for another £15-18m, we could create a Dream Team line up.!

Get the two Ajax boys and Coentrao, then sell BAE, Gomes, Livermore, and Huddlestone. We are then looking very good if Bale stays and not that bad if he goes. We will need a striker make-weight if he is leaving though.
Don't see us signing all them though but would be great.

Jamie Redknapp article saying levy is very clever buying players in before selling bale to stop inflated prices, I agree with this, I can still see bale going, we wouldn't be spending this kind of money if not

Both of the Redknapps need to shut their mouths.

Agree0 Disagree0

Used to like the redknapps but starting to think they have not moved on, and are a bit anti spurs, junior feels sorry for Madrid . Oh how quick people forget different story when his dad was in conflict with the court and levy and spurs stood by him just like his dog with the large bank account . Then his dad played poker with spurs and Mr Levy over the England job, he should shut up and think before engaging brain and, he should show some dignity and loyalty to a club which employed him and paid him appears to me the redknapps should of been a dairy farmers as they like milk everything, his comments probably have put up the price up on defoe and parker putty in levys hand jamie
