Tuttomercarto who got their info from Sky Italia claim Tottenham Hotspur will offer Roma ?40m for Lamela after initially offering ?35m earlier on in the week.
You talking euros?
Uganda dollars
How is our pursuit of Lamala any different to Real Madrid's pursuit of Bale?
Neither are for sale, both owner clubs want to keep their prize asset - So ultimately it is the players own intentions that is a factor.
If Lamala wants to leave Roma for Spurs, we might have a chance - Surely Baldini has the inside track, would he go barking up the wrong tree?
We're about 4 ex players, 8 current players, and a dedicated newspaper different from what RM are doing.
Good point Wulf;
Still I believe Roma will only seriously negotiate if they know the player himself wants the move, Lamala will only increase in value over time.

Reading and hearing reports that a deal to bring Osvaldo to the Lane is virtually a done deal. I have been amazed by our transfer window so far and have made 4 brilliant signings, but I can't help but think that Osvaldo is a donkey. I have seen him a few times (admittedly not enough to passa real jjudgement) but he looks like another sulker. And read reports that he is a bit of a bad boy. In my opinion I would rather Defoe as back up, or shoot me down. Bent has pretty much completed a loan swich to Fulham. Surely a loan for bent as back up would have been better than the reported £15m for Osvaldo.
If I was spurs I would leave him well alone and let him join southampton. {Ed008's Note - Osvaldo is a terrible terrible player I don't understand how he's rated by any manager..
Don't know about bothering with Bent (although, despite his spell with us not being great, he has always scored goals) but agree on Osvaldo. A definite worry, presumably Ade would be on his way, having two unpredictable, sulky attitudes to cover up top wouldn't be ideal.
Simmo
I read somewhere that Osvaldo is definaltely a trouble maker. Apparently he was involved in a dressing room bustup where he punched/slapped Lamela. So would that mean that if he joined then Lamela wouldn't. I know who I'd rather play for us!
Also read southampton have agreed a fee, here's hoping anyway
ED008 at least you had the conviction to put your neck on the line, but don't you think you are being a little harsh on poor old Osvaldo calling him a terrible player?
He played 2315 minutes last season = 25.7 games and scored 16 goals and assisted two further. He scored goals against teams like Inter Milan, Ac Milan, Juventus & Fiorentina.
The season before he played 2088 minutes = 23.2 games and scored 11 and had 5 more assists.
the season before he had a major tear in an abducter muscle, and only played 1743 minutes = 19.4 games, and still managed to score 13 with a additional 3 assists.
I can see the same weaknesses you are probably forming your opinion upon, weak in aerial duals, poor offside awareness, weak crossing, and poor discipline.
Overall he is a decent enough player with good finishing and capable of scoring goals with his head and right foot. I personally would bedisappointed if we signed him as Coulthirst & Kane are better in my opinion, but calling him terrible feels like tough justice. {Ed008's Note - I just can't stand the player poor attitude,inconsistent and yeah he does score goals but's he's the wrong player if he proves me wrong I'll admit I was wrong but he is not the player needed my opinion.
Maybe the price we pay to get Lamela?
Southampton fan in peace-
Trust me lads your in for a treat if you get osvaldo, I would love him at saints, however he doesn't seem like an AVB player to me, however his workrates are also good, and a lethal finisher, anyways good luck for next season, your better than the gooners and I love watching your side plzy
I too heard that Osvaldo and Lamela had a bust up. However, I heard that they did resolve the issue and they are fine now.
