Dont panic Capt Mainwaring! Plenty of time.

Jesus.cheer up man.

We should go for Ba & llorent or Damaio. Levy needs to go that extra yard with the offers. Good striker could see us push the manx all the way and leave the chavskis and gooners in our wake.

Anyone else annoyed that bale is getting slated for playing a pre season game ?
I mean ok the Olympics are a big deal ...
2 possibilities ...
1. He was actually inured and didn't want to use one of the three senior caps
Which makes sense in case he isn't fit and puts team GB in a worse state potentially
So everyone get off his back
Or
2. He wasn't injured just either A wasn't aloud to go or B took it upon himself to say no ...
I don't believe it would be A as he stated many times his desire to play ... And would we want to risk upsetting him by denying it ? Or B he pulled himself out because he decided he didn't want to ... Wouldn't they rather have people In the team who wants to play anyway ? Surely ....
The press ... Especially that fking douche bag person Savage needs to shut it

Believable2 Unbelievable2

Bale wouldn't have used an overage pick because he's U-23. What seems most likely is the injury was real and confirmed by team gb and spurs staff, and was therefore unable to train and play in high-intensity competitive matches like the olympics. I think we exaggerated the seriousness of the injury slightly, but not made it up. I think he just returned faster than expected

Agree0 Disagree1

How will you ever know when a player is injured or not - to get a good assessment you need game time not training.
the papers as usual get on someone's back, remember how many times Giggs was injured for Welsh Internationals but was then playing for united scum on Saturday's and the ginger one when Fergie claimed he was injured for England
At the end of the day Bale is a star and he has my support hope he plays on Saturday.

Agree2 Disagree3

It was his only chance to get a winners medal!

Agree2 Disagree4

Does anyone remember back in November 2011 all the news about the Welsh FA putting pressure on Bale and other Welsh players to not play for GB in the Olympics as it would jeopardize the Welsh FA independence? And what about the FA's failure to punish players who don't play in friendlies during the Premier league regular season? These details combined with the fact that Bale was injured at the time of GB team selection should be enough to rubbish any claims to ban Bale from playing. {Ed007's Note - The SFA took the same stance about Scottish players joining team GB, they feared UEFA could use it to abolish the individual countries FAs and force a British FA (and British team).}

Agree1 Disagree0

Agree with above poster...
Oh look,batter will now have to ban all welsh and Scottish players cos their FA made them "unavailable"

Journalist have got lazy and it isn't his only chance to get a medal, I'm sorry but team GB are awful. Massive difference between brazil, Argentina, spain even uruguay.

And Beckham should have been in the team. Absolute joke.

Shame on Bale for lying about an injury to pull out of the Olympic squad then end up playing for Spurs in a friendly, that behaviour does'nt deserve caps of any kind...why lie? (because he obviously did) why not just decline his place in the first place?.....and shame also on AVB for lying about his "phenominal ability to recover quickly"....yeah right! {Ed008's Note - I disagree with this post! Towards the end of last season he was carrying a back injury and was having treatment he advertised he wanted to play for Team GB being in posters, kit launch and i don't think he would do all that if he wasn't fit maybe the Spurs medical team pushed him to return last night but doesn't mean he was lying....

Believable3 Unbelievable3

How many minutes did he play?
He can't play in the Olympics not fully fit.
He will get game time with spurs in the states but not full games till he gradually gets back to fitness.
It is pre season FFS, the time when you get match fit.
He is not fully fit.
Check your facts pls, before spouting garbage and slagging off opposing teams.
Definitely a chavs or a nomad

Agree2 Disagree1

To add to that a few pre season friendlies are hardly off the same intensity and competitiveness of the worlds elite sporting event is it.

Agree1 Disagree0

Do we have a chav or arseanil fan here.Shame on you for this.If the guy does not feel 100% fit then why risk it for a few games and no chance of a medal.Well done Gareth i say.Stuff you Blatter.

Agree2 Disagree2

Does'nt it strike you as at all suspicious that the ONLY fans that are in his favour over this olympic issue are the spurs fans??......obviously!......but other fans will look at the whole issue and not, like you, be clouded in their judgement of Bale just because he plays for the club you support!

Agree2 Disagree0

Why is it called team Gb anyway, should it not have been team England & Wales?

Agree0 Disagree0

BBC reports: Tottenham defend Gareth Bale over the winger not playing for Team GB but playing for them in a pre-season friendly.

A Spurs statement says: "The club considers the recent comment and accusations regarding Gareth Bale's fitness relating to his non selection for Team GB's men's football team to be wholly unacceptable and unjustified.

"For the avoidance of any doubt and on a point of absolute clarity and transparency - Gareth sustained an injury as he built up his fitness ahead of joining up with Stuart Pearce's [Team GB] side. MRI scan reports were sent to the FA medical team on 29 June.

"He was subsequently not selected on the basis of this injury and the inability to predict recovery time."

Not to sure if he would join us and havent seen that much of him but what do people think of alex witsel? what ive seen of him he looks like a very good young player and could be a possible replacement for modric

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Whenever i hear about witsel, all i ever think of is when he broke someones legs a few years back. The camera got a very closeup of it. If you havent seen it, go to youtube. If you are squimish, don't watch it

His team want 31 million for him

Anyone heard of Cirigliano? Plays for river plate and this guy is great. Young lad with bags of potential.

He is the complete midfielder, not only has he a great passing range but this boy can dribble and most importantly does not shy away from a good tackle. Modric mixed with mascherano in my opinion. An ideal, if not better, replacement for modric. This guy is going places, lets hope levy has/will send scouts out. Probably would cost around 5mill

Just heard psg have offered the 40mill for modric could we please now sell him and move on.

Ed do you know how much demba ba's buyout clause is because i doubt its very high and if its not surely that would be a safe end to our striker worries. He has proved himself in the premier league. {Ed001's Note - it only applies if the buying team is in the Champions League.}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Thank good ness for that. The barcodes can keep him

Agree2 Disagree3

Us 'barcodes' will be beating you next season, losing your best player and not even having a half decent

What's up with Newcastle fans ?? Since when did we ever become rivals ? Well obviously don't be pedantic and say every footballing team are rivals ... I mean so much so they come here and slag is off ?
Confused much ?

Have a feeling the AVB is going to do amazing things at spurs! 3rd place finish and hopefully 4th for my team newcastle! Arsenal mid table finish aswell, good luck next season

Believable3 Unbelievable8

Don't think so

Agree4 Disagree2

Wot is a 'glake'
As for no harry and no luka, happy days, at long last, bring it on
By the way, I wouldnt want ba either.
If we start the season with Defoe and ba up front, we are in serious trouble

It's been a while bit I've been working hard getting y'all some ITK. So listen up and hear me know.

The papers are saying that Ar***al are trying to scupper out bid for Lloris but nothing could be further from the truth. My mate reckons this is all about trying to get a better deal because his club were stalling and trying to get more money. Levy won't have this and they've chosen the wrong guy to try and have over.

In other news my snout also reckons we're in for Neymar but in reality I think he's just forgotten to take his brain medicine.

Wiggidy wiggidy WAC! You heard it from ....

Hey, i am a Chelsea fan but i was just watching the highlights of your preseason game against LA, and i noticed Bale was wearing the No9 shirt, is this just a preseason thing or is this his new number? Cheers.

Believable3 Unbelievable3

They don't wear their proper numbered shirts on preseason. Spurs website mentined this a couple of weeks ago. Shirt numbers are lauched beginning of season I think.
