Have to say I'm rather confused levy released a statement at the end of last season promising we wouldn't sell our best players and we have lost Modric and vdv and not replaced with a big name signing, we have signed some good players but I fear its not enough

Lloirs is a big name signing, a worldclass goalkeeper im well happy we got him can win us games.

Where is Damiao? Is this the 5th window he hasn't signed??
Answers if you can!!!
Believable1
Unbelievable0
He'll just disappear for a few weeks, then he'll be back claiming that he gave us Dempsey even though we all know tha he didnt. just like he has done with everyone else he has claimed as his ITK.
The only ones he's ever got right has always been press regurgitation. Unfortunatley for him, we can all read the same press as he can.
He won't answer your call.
b******* to Levy out, its oracle out if you ask me.

We spent nearly £60million. Did we replace luka. No.
Did we buy the no.9 we desperately need. No.
Our first 2 games showed how short we are of firepower.
Unless ade Dempsey and Defoe store at least 15 each then I think we are in trouble.
One other bad note, we got rid of alot of players. Squad smaller now, but we still have jenas and Bentley.
Bentley is now our wing cover.
If Kane leaves on loan, as expected, Dempsey is another striker.
Believable0
Unbelievable0
Dempsey was fulhams top goal scorer last season and got 20 goals more then any of our players, and defo i belive got around 16 last season, and ade got 17, bale got 14, so more of the same would be gd.

Why do you not want to take us to the next level! U call yourself a bussiness man but won't invest, it's us the fans who put money into the club an u should remember that next time your being a tight fisted twit, seriously how could u balls up moutinho??! And y after 4 seasons of needing a strike do u feel the need to sign clint bloody Dempsey when llorente was available?? Gutted to be honest!! My season ticket is a big investment for me and I really feel you have let other fans and me down. If you can't/ won't take the club forward at least step aside and give someone who can a chance. You payed £16mill and 60 k a week for Bentley but can't offer moutinho decent money it's an absolute joke. totally pissed off atm

For me a disappointing window as normal.
Lloris a great signing.
Vertoghen replaces ledley
Dembele replaces modric
Siggurdsson replaces van der vart
Ade back for himself
and dempsey decent
But really are we stronger losing modric and van der vart and ledley some of our top players. Hard to see it, we have replaced but not really strengthed.
As for the Oracle well what a load of rubbish I listened to a lot you have said more fool me your full of crap.
Ed thanks for all the info today you have done a phenominal job cheers mate.

Being reported in portugese press that spurs could not agree deal with player or club.
Maybe the £22million wasn't the fee.
Lots of different crap going on about this tho.
Bit gutted but with dembele,Siggs, Verts,Dempsey we have players who will run themselves into the ground.
Gonna be interesting but, in my opinion, we are still short.
Again, Berba as still not been replaced.
Luka hasnt been replaced.
Strange window I think but again levy's coffers are swelling again.

So will Dempsy be a new speed record signing for DL, it took around an hour to negotiate Fulham's fee, personal terms, conduct a medical and complete a contract. I've liked Dempsy, my 2nd favorite American behind Brian McBride, but I would prefer DL's extra effort to secure Moutinho.

It fails on personal terms.

What on earth is going at spurs? there is still time for deals to go through but ive got a bad feeling its all gone wrong if levy is stalling on wages and thats stopping us from getting the quality players that we really need and we lose moutinho and llosis, and end up with no one or clint dempsy cause levy is hagling over wages when clearly we have saved money on the players sales and trimmed the squad to the point of being very short of cover.Before anyone says he only doing whats right for the club buying these players is whats right for club by showing that we mean buisiness .If these deals fall through then the chairman has got to go because he is showing a lack of ambition to us the fans and it has been going on for years always being linked but never going that extra mile to get top players(remember when we made an offer for Aguerro with only hours left on the transfer window which was never gonna happen cause levy was never gonna pay the wages).The thing is ive been a supporter for over twenty years much like a lot of people on here and i go to spurs as much as can , its not cheap but i still go to support my team win,lose,or draw but it would be nice for the club to give us something to shout about and not just take our money.

12 players make their way out including 3 of the best (Ledley, Modric and Rafa) and we're supposed to be grateful for Ade who we had already, Vert, Dembele and Sig as replacements? Is it all a little spin on the Moutinho deal stalling so at 11pm we're all relieved if it goes through and conveniently forget that we are several players light overall, at least one striker short and, the club have netted about £20m and reduced the wage bill overall!? If Lloris does sign we have 4 Prem keepers but only 2 Prem strikers (1 not suitable for AVB's preferred system).
Moutinho plus a striker is a must, Lloris then a bonus (maybe) but anything less is ridiculous and expect 6th place. 4hrs pivotal hours for us left.
Simmo
Believable2

Got to agree with this. Moutinho would be amazing, as we know. Lloris would no doubt be a great signing but he'll struggle to displace Friedel. I for one think Friedel deserves to be where he is and Lloris is a bit of a luxury signing at this point.
If Ade or Defoe get injured we won't be looking to good up front. We can only hope it's being sorted but it's a bit worrying that all has gone quiet on the striker front. A top 15mil+ player ain't something to bash out in the last 3 hours of the window.

Agree whole hearted!
Modric and VdV = our creativity and goals; we at least need to replace that or even "IMPROVE"?
Mountino would be great, but he doesn't score goals like Rafa did?
Or is that now Dembele and Siggs roles - but they are no prolific so its a gamble..
You are bang on - why keep Gomez and Cudicini if they are not good enough to play?!
WHO WILL SCORE GOALS FOR US THIS SEASON??? (not Ade or defoe!!

Are and Defoe will nor score enough goals..
Llorente is 100% to stay at Athletico, Damaio will not happen as we cannot afford him, Hulk (haha), Berba chose Fulham (tatsser), Remy to Chelsea? Who are our realistic targets now?

Stop all this grumbling about Levy. We are in a better position than about 95% of all other English clubs. There are not many clubs who can afford to bid £22 million for a player and if said player wants ridiculous money then the deal has to be called off. We are not Manchester City or Chelsea but nor are we Leeds or Portsmouth.

I have always said that Daniel Levy was a great man to manage the money but now even his biggest critics must admit he is FAAAANTASTIC. He has signed 5 top class players plus Ade and we have only lost one (Modric). Without getting carried away and assuming they will gel together quickly, I believe we are a match for any team with this squad. Before you start shouting, yes there is one piece missing but there are 8 hours still left. In Levy we trust. The best chairman in the Premeriership.

Lyon have given permission for Hugo Lloris to travel to England, but they insist that they have not yet agreed a deal with Tottenham.
French reports have claimed that a deal worth 12million euros (£9.5million) was in place - although Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas says this is not the case.
However, Aulas has allowed Lloris to make the journey across the Channel - just in case Spurs do manage to broker terms.
"Nothing is done, but there are close discussions," said Aulas.
"He has been allowed to go to the club Tottenham, to be ready in case [a deal happens]."

People will probably disagree but if the Moutinho and LLoris deals go through i will a very happy man! I would even suggest that we dont need a big name striker! If like they say at Spurs, we only play one striker then why would we bring in a top name and have Ade sitting on the bench on 100k. I would happily have Berba back, or even someone like Owen on loan as cover. We could assess the situation in Jan if really needed. PS our midfield is looking formidable.
Very happy Yid

Rough calcs so far see us with approx £38m having gone out with around £60m ish coming in (after JJ and Rafa going as well).
I have a feeling we'll only make one more signing and finish in the black with a much smaller squad, too small with not enough strikers.
We're going to get the usual last minute let down so just get deals done for Dempsey and Berbs, £11-12m. Might as well know our level, get the players who are def available, both proven in Prem and score goals, it balances our squad a bit and Levy keeps some money as well.

I am quite happy with the signings for Spurs thus far, all are top quallity. We still feel we have some gaps. wee need a keeper, but if things don't work out with Lloris, how likely is it DL will sign someone else, perhaps we could wait till January? My real concern is that the 13 match funk we had last season could be repeated. we could play some quality games and retain possesion, but simply not score goals. Both Defoe and Ade have suffered from incosstent streaks, we need to score lots of goals to be in the top 4.
We are now on the last day of the transfer window, and I like many of you think DL could have something up his sleeve but the question is who are legittamit targets. We have been linked with so many prospects. Most are too expensive and or don't fit the Levey requirement of having resale value.I am a bit confussed, I keep seeing people post don't worry, there is still time, but almost all the targets metioned are either too expensive or already snapped up. Eds/others what do you think who is available? Will we sign anyone else today? Note, I know I am likely missing some targets below, ans some are/were not entirely realistic. Let me know what you think
Esteban Granero - QPR
Freyers - Standard Ličge
Carroll - Westham
Gaston Ramirez - Southampton?
Adam Johnson - Sunderland
Damiao - Too expensive
Ganso - Too expensive/not really interested
Remy - Too expensive
Dzagoev - Too expensive
Moutinho - Too expensive
Willian - Too expensive
Douglas Costa - not much evidence Spurs are after him
Fernandinho - not much evidence Spurs are after him
Fernando Llorente - He is 27 so a bit over DL's age requirment to retain resell value
Ed's is there anyone else who Spurs are considering as a striker/attacking midfielder?
Hugo Lloris - Deal fell through, is it still possible DL could cough up the cash?
Butland - not enough experience IMHO to be immediate replacement to friedel (if he gets injured) this season, not much evidence Spurs are interest
M. Stekelenburg - could a deal be in the works with Lloris deal falling through
Julio Cesar - QPR
Finally, Yann M'Vila- previously heavily linked but all has been quiet, I would feel comfortable with him purchased especially with Kaboul out for a while, but not a priority for Spurs.

We have lost more players out that matter to the balance of the team, don't forget King has retired too.

The problem is , as DL took his time over Modrat , it didnt leave him time to do his wheeler dealing .
