Can any of the eds tell have we bid for Griezmann?
Thanks
{Ed002's Note - Yes.}
1.) Please god have this man in a spurs shirt!
2.) Cheers ed. I see we have had a £15m bid rejected. Any truth we are going to bid £20m?
Thank you.
{Ed002's Note - I have no interest in discussing money.}
3.) 24 Jul 2014 21:22:23
He is worth £26.4m if you believe the statisticians who are normally fairly accurate.
We all know that there is certainly interest and a bid around £22m should secure him.
{Ed002's Note - There is a fixed fee they will accept. Spurs are wasting their time bidding below that.}
4.) Haha statisticians calculating the price of a player . what's the number to activate the release clause? meet that and we can discuss personal terms with the player.
5.) I believe it is £24/25m Yellow Card.

Hi eds, reading a lot about our interest in Southampton's Morgan Schneiderlin. Are we preparing to make a bid?
Thank you.
{Ed002's Note - I am not sure what you mean by "preparing to make a bid" - but there is interest from Spurs and Arsenal.}
1.) Was he speaking French. Haha ed

Graham Hunter tweeted he believes the Soldado deal is done.
Fingers crossed.
1.) Supposed to be close to a done deal.
2.) Tv are saying its done but there are some problems with the agent
3.) Think the problem is with Valencia and the agents so its out of our hands.

What an absolute disgrace of a performance that was.
1.) 02 Nov 2016 21:55:01
I agree
LMFAO.
31 Aug 2014 15:35:11
Absolute shambles of a performance. Cannot take any positives from that game. Dier was terrible. Bentaleb offers nothing, Adebayor was useless. Eriksen I don't even know where to start he was so bad. So disappointed in that performance!
1.) Diers lack of PL experience was exposed - but playing alongside Verts, Rose and Kaboul he was actually the more solid of our back 4. Which is pretty sad statement of Verts and Kaboul in a big game.
2.) Have to disagree with you on that. He was all over the shop yesterday. Thought Rose was the best of a bad bunch yesterday but that ain't saying much.
3.) It's a sad day when we debate Rose or Dier as our better defender and Kaboul and Verts played in the middle of those 2.

I take it any deal for Destro is off since he scored 2 for Roma today!
1.) Nope, Roma need some euros.
2.) Surely they would'nt have risked him getting injured then? Does anybody know if he started or was a late sub?
The link between us seems to have gone very cold to be fair!
{Ed002's Note - There is a lot of interest in Destro from another side and Roma has moved to buy a replacement in Luiz Adriano.}
3.) We will move onto another target, if he plays in Euro League tomorrow!
{Ed002's Note - It is of no consequence.}
4.) Ooops sorry I meant in relation to the Villereal defender! I he plays Thursday in euro league then I believe he will no longer be of interest.
destro was a late sub.
{Ed001's Note - Musacchio went dead anyway, clubs couldn't agree a fee.}
17 Aug 2014 08:29:33
Can any of the eds shed any light on Destro or was it all rubbish and Sabatini was just in England to talk to United about Benatia?
Thanks eds, sorry about bothering ye on a Sunday :)
{Ed002's Note - See previous answer.}
1.) Sorry I missed that post. Thanks ed

I really fear for the future of this club if we are already getting rid of players who have never been given a chance!
Capoue to me has looked good when he plays so why sell him?
Lamela just has never been giving proper game time.
Holtby is the only one besides Eriksen that can pass a ball and unlock defences and can also score! He too has never been given a proper run!
On another note, hope Tim is gone in the summer. Should never have been given the job and has not got a clue what he is doing!
1.) Think it's a bit unfair that people are reading the papers and judging a mans job from stories that are usually a load of rubbish anyway
He's picked up 13 from 15 points, getting to know the players which he has openly said several times.
Lamela has also been injured, think he might be a bit of a problem boy as well, although I really do want to see what he can do on a weekly basis
2.) He can compete with Kalou for a place! Jesus Daniel, you really don't want CL this year do you! Surely Baldini has some say in this although targets mentioned its hard to believe!
3.) I can only hope Baldini is busy working on something worthwhile and not any of the media rumors or his role becomes even more suspect to me.
4.) Gunner here in peace. clankers, imo spurs were going nowhere under avb and looked a poor poor team. read somewhere that just based on sherwoods league games (albeit not many) but spurs would be top. he's also handling big personalities so not really sure what more anyone could want from him. ps he's also playing more attractive football.
5.) Clankers, tell us why Tim hasn't got a clue then? I think he is doing a fine job so far and I hope he keeps the job.
6.) Belly, he's not doing that bad a job but we haven't played anyone of note yet! I like that we are more attack minded, but against a team with a good strong midfield, like city, we could get absolutely pulverised . We need Sandro / Capuoe, playing in front of the back four which doesn't include Dawson . Then 3 across the middle with two up front . This would firm up the middle providing our other mid fielders chased back . I do think that Sherwood has a problem with big name players . He is a down to earth person and admits that effort is better than skill, and he picks his team around that . Another problem is that Levy is not going to back him in the transfer market as much as a big name manager unless Baldini gets involved, and they don't get on!
7.) Baldini and Levy sign the players, Sherwood coaches them hence why he is a coach.
8.) So Spurski, is that why Tim has gone on record saying he has the biggest say in who we buy and who gets sold . I think he thinks he's the manager!
9.) Davo, I get what your saying and don't disagree but if Baldini wasn't still in charge of transfers then he would have been let go when AVB went. Sherwood is a coach and he identifies players he wants and Baldini works on signing said player or someone similar.
Personally I'm hoping he gets replaced end of season and someone of note comes in.
10.) Spurs1985, I hope Baldini is in charge! I think Tim is a good coach but not ready yet!
Then again, would Baldini be looking at Kalou, I don't think so and hope not!
11.) The whole coach/manager vs DOF role confuses me at Spurs . It seems admittedly based on media reports that there is not consensus on who to bring in . Tim is linked with players that I can't see Baldini looking twice at . The issue was apparently there last summer with AVB also . how did we end up with so many "similar" midfield players? I understand rotation, but the players bought in last window did not provide cover for rotation . LB being the obvious position.
12.) Davo, agree with you about Sherwood, not proven and no disrespect to him but he doesn't deserve the job as he clearly didn't get it on merit (although can't fault him based on results so far).
As regards to your comment about Kalou I'd say that it's Levy who has identified him as he's cheap. Only speculating but sounds like Levy.
13.) Davo.
You really talk utter gash. " we haven't played anyone of note yet ". So winning at Old Trafford is easy then yeh? I'm all for reading banter posts but when they make no sense & belittle THFC it infuriates me.
Do you moan constantly about everything? AVB was a one truck pony. Tim has now shown he can change tactics & team selection.
Just top your glass up a little so it's half full and enjoy spurs winning 16 from 18 pts and 5 away games on trot. !
14.) Well wildly, are we the only ones to win at old Trafford, no, and we won't be the last! Add to that we were overrun in the second half, and just held on! Like I said, let's see what happens in the next game, who starts and if city start to overrun the midfield, what changes are made during the game! This will be more of a test than going to old Trafford!

Once again Cognizant shows his ignorance to the eds. jog on mate!
07 Jul 2015 01:32:55
And what exactly do you know Cognizant. Have a bit of respect for the Eds who clearly know more than you.
14 Jun 2015 21:16:54
Yes he is too good for us. He will want Champions League football.
Nonsense from you as always!
First game game for Verts Davo after the world cup and no pre season. Give him a break!
22 Nov 2016 22:03:16
I was just saying that to a few mates. He has been very poor this season imo.
02 Nov 2016 21:48:08
Explain your stupid comment?
19 Dec 2015 17:52:09
To call Jose a failure is simply outlandish. His trophy count speaks for itself Raver!
23 Nov 2015 09:40:41
Cover would be welcome but I would be happy not spending any money in January barring injuries. We still have Bentelab nearly back.

Coming last in the group won't get you Europa league.
