Can't wait to see Halilovic play! watching clips of him and he looks a similar type to Robben! (cutting in from the left)

Emelio Butragaeno (The Vulcher) is flying to New York tomorrow direct from his holiday location.
There he will meet up with Zidane to speak to the agent of Bale.
Bale's agent wanted to meet in Americs to avoid suspicions of the British and Spanish press but this now appears to have failed.
Tottenham are aware of the meeting but have asked for time to organise a replacement for the Wales player and seem happy to take a smaller starting fee (?65m) but with extras if trophies are won in the first 2 seasons of his contract.
They have enquired about Robben of Munich who rejected the advances so have turned to Eastern Europe to collect a wing man with pace.
We believe this to be a Hungarian International playing in Russia (Baldudzcak).
Butragaeno is a former Madrid player but is now a club representative and has been asked to help Zidane with this high financial move.

This is a rough translation from a Spanish newspaper called Mucia paparinxi which is a break away from super rag Marca.
We shall see now soon I guess

Its going to drive the original poster mad with envy when Bale is ripping teams apart in his Tottenham shirt next season.

Don't you mean Dzsudzsak? Hope not, guy's incredibly inconsistent

Next years kits are officially set for launch next Monday (8th July).

I wonder what delights they've come up with his year - I haven't been to impressed by some of the "leaks" I've seen so far.

Next years? What about this years?

Opps - my bad. I meant next SEASONS kits!

The daily echo (south coast paper) is reporting Southampton are interested in Damaio. If they beat us to his signature then something is seriously wrong!

Billy {Ed002's Note - I understand that whilst there is interest from Southampton there has been no formal offer.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Have you thought that maybe spurs might not want him now. Him and his club have caused us problems in the last 3 windows so maybe we might not be interested anyway.

Agree0 Disagree0

Soldado better and ahead of Damaio anyway

Why is every one panicking over bale? If he goes, he goes, as long as the money goes back into the team! nobody is bigger than the team, just chill and enjoy the up coming season lads. no stress. eazziiiiii

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I'm not worried but it's exactly that IF the money goes back into the team, which IMO it won't. Maybe like 30/40 mil at a max reinvested from a potential 80? Not improvement for me
R91

Agree0 Disagree0

That is why people are panicing because all TRUE spurs fans (Not trawlers) know that not all the money will go back into the squad

What do people think about how paulinho would be deployed should we complete his signature?

Assuming we play a 4 3 3 would it be sandro and paulinho with dembele pushed ahead, or sandro dropping deep with Paul and dembele more advanced?

From footage/confed cup I've seen of paul he looks like a solid cdm with good ball control under pressure but also with that Gerrard/lampard ability to push up

Believable0 Unbelievable0

All the rumors, and I know they are just rumors, make me wonder if there has been consideration to selling Sandro. The injuries the last 2 seasons have seriously hurt us and him.

Hate to see him go, a great asset when he is fit. but would not be totally surprised to see him sold.

Hi All,

From what I've heard, we've signed to great prospects in Jedvaj and Halilovic, but I'm not too sure about either player and their ability, best positions etc. Could somebody help me out please? Who are they comparable to? What's their potential etc?

Thanks in advance,

Dom

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Was same as you Dom knew nothing about them so went looking and Jedvaj is a defender there's not much on him. Halilovic can play as any of the 3 off the striker. He's been playing on the right for his current club. Halilovic sounds like great buy as from what I've read he's the next Modric. But with how he plays he's more like Messi. Hope that helps.

Agree0 Disagree0

Not too sure on jedvaj but know arsenal were looking at him, halilovic looks quality, with excellent close ball control comparable to modrix, the ability to skill his way past players, good vision and great shooting and passing. Could play as playmaker in old modric role, or number 10 or out wide in a 4 3 3.

Agree0 Disagree0

Thanks for that guys. Much appreciated. If he turns out to be half as good as Messi, I'll be one very happy man!

Dom

Agree0 Disagree0

I know it ain't everything but tv scouting have Halilovic with a potential value of 80m! He looks unbelievably good.

So many rumours and so many ideas from fellow avid Spurs fans, but as of yet we have signed nobody and the more I sit here and the more these targets play and start friendlies more their prices will go up and up. I just wish we would do the deal get the wallet out of the back pocket and bloody buy the people we need, Paulinho looks good, Villa would be nice and Benteke would be a good fit in my opinion and all available. I think we missed a trick with Ince as a future regular but should defo go for Luke Shaw from Saints. anyway that's only what I think and I am sure that Levy will hold on until about 11. 45pm on deadline day and fail to land anybody we really need. Same old same old! please prove me wrong Danny boy.

Looking at the two lads we have bought (hopefully) I think you have been proved wrong this is very forward thinking and baldini will be a big hit if this comes off.
the future could be very rosy

derbyshire dave

Agree0 Disagree0

The future looks good, but what about now? We can't win trophies buying up young potential. The current team needs improvement now not in 2 -3 years time.

Agree0 Disagree0

Pauliniho's price won't go up as we've met his release clause, Barca have put a price of 12mill on Villa and we're looking to get it cheaper. These players were both waiting till after confed cup so was nothing we could do. This week we should (hopefully) see something happen.

Hey guys
notice the trend. The more active we are on the market the more jealous trollers come on BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT ON THEIR PAGE, just speculation.

the rumor is that once arsenal signs a guy and so does lfc they will go back under their bridges

I hope it's not just me thinking this! I reckon we should go in for Fred look how many goals he's been banging in for brazil and he has a 1.7 million release clause surely worth it?
Ed any chance of this happening?

Bristol Yod {Ed002's Note - Spurs has shown no interest.}

We were after Fred about 5 years ago when he was at Lyon. He is off to Russia now.
