Oxford spur, Osvaldo is crap, Welbeck has scored what 2 goals and Jenas has gone already!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Well beck is one of the most over rated players in the PL.

Now realistically, what signings does anyone here think would improve our team, if we don't get Champions League? I wouldn't mind Wilfried Bony myself

Believable0 Unbelievable0

He has made it clear he wants Chelsea and he might get his wishes soon if they go for the full striker overhaul (selling everyone bar Lukaku).
As for non-CL football, the Worst Case Scenario (WCS) for me is someone like Papiss Cisse being signed for big money (Another waste of space), another Scott Parker-esque player and some useless left-back while we sell Danny Rose, Bale (Whose transfer fee is successfully pocketed by Lennon) and sign a couple of "will-they-won't-they" youngsters.
Best case scenario (or BCS) for me is selling the deadwood (Parker, Gomes, Ade-can't-score, Livermore, Jenas etc) for a modest sum, signing a proven striker (Welbeck, Michu, Osvaldo etc), bringing in a good covering midfielder (Iturra is on a free and would be a steal), recalling Rose, selling BAE and signing someone like Pereira or Ally Cissokho as well as retaining this years squad. Maybe a decent winger who won't mind playing second-fiddle or as a off-the-bench option (Dyer or Sinclair?) also as well as using Luongo (back from loan), Fryers (Promote), Coulibaly and Ceballos (Promote) and use Townsend more.
However, what I think will happen is that we will sell Bale to Madrid for cash (£35-£40 million-ish) and Higuain (AVB is a big fan of him and tried to sign him twice for Chavski), maybe also sign a decent striker like Osvaldo, shift some deadwood (Parker, Livermore, Ade-can't-score), bring back Rose, sign someone for CM like Yohan Cabaye or Gourcuff and bring in an above average winger to "replace" Bale (Replace meaning buy a poor mans equivalent) like Ben Arfa, Sinclair or even Nani as well as promoting/using the youngsters said before.
That's just my thoughts though.
Oxford Spur
P. S. I hate to say it but this could be a real possibility (No CL) because I see Chelsea rolling us over if we play like against Southampton or Wigan and Bale might find it a bit harder to get a chance against a Chelsea team who will be fired up on the idea that beating us gets them CL football. And Arsenal are also getting results too. Tough three games for a Spurs fan and unfortunately I only see it ending in tears (being the pessimistic guy I am)

Agree0 Disagree0

Personally I'd opt for someone who can play both cb & lb Bruno martins indi 2 birds 1 stone far better at defending than parreira & cissokho
I'd go for 2 playmakers 1 that could play wide as well as cm Adam Maher & the 2nd Ever banega, I'd go for 2 just so we can rotate them & with it been tottenham we'd sign 1 & he'd get injured & we'd b back to square 1 & screwed without any creativity.
I'd love draxler or lamela but that's highly unlikely but maybe we could get Munian
Upfront I'd go for Negredo & Mbokani if were just in euro lg
4-2-3-1
Lloris
Walker
Kaboul
Verthongen
Bruno martins indi
Sandro
Maher/ banega
Munian
Bale
Dembele
Negredo
Subs: Archer caulker rose holtby Maher or banega lennon Mbokani

Is AVB a bit mental I quote in reference to Southampton game & Ade " he was simply amazing " I hope this is a mos quote or I want a new manager!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Probably because he hears the justifiable stick he had bern getting lately.
He is only sticking his arm around him.
I think he needs him for the final 3 games, probably starting at the chavs and playing up front with Defoe and hopefully leaving Dempsey on the bench.

Agree0 Disagree0

It will b Dempsey & Ade, 4 sum reason AVB loves Dempsey who's lack of work rate is only bettered by Ade!

Agree0 Disagree0

It's probably because of the important goals he scores for us.

Banter please ed.
why does davo always start with 'banter please ed'?

You do know this is a 'banter' site!
{Ed008's Note -Really? You've just done the same thing lol

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I was aware of my actions ed yes lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

It's so it goes on the banter site and not the rumours! Also I am a bit simple!

Agree0 Disagree0

Do you see the link that say 'post spurs rumours'
There us also one that says 'post spurs banter' lol.
We are spurs fans, we all must be simple :)

Agree0 Disagree0

After this post I realized that the banter submission button is on the left nav. Although at the top of both transfer and banter there is a link to submit transfer rumors, which I have been using since day 1. I guess this wouldn't be an issue if they either included both links at the top of the page like in the nav, or just the link that correlates to that section (banter submit on banter/rumors submit on rumors).

Agree0 Disagree0

At the top of my page it says use spurs rumours form for spurs rumours, nothing about banter!

Agree0 Disagree0

I'm on iPad. I have a blue list on the side with different pages. One says post spurs rumours. One says post spurs banter. I didn't realise we saw different formats on different hardware.

Agree0 Disagree0

Will do it from my iPad in future so no one is upset! {Ed008's Note - Lol I know what banter is can't believe we're having this discussion here!

Agree0 Disagree0

At least we davo ain't moaning about Dempsey on this thread ed lol :) :)

Agree0 Disagree0

Nor can I Ed, should have had a moan about Dempsey instead!!

With Ajax now champions, how long before we announce our signing of Eriksen?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

He won't come if we finish 5th. He has already said that he wants CL.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think we may just sign some very good players and I don't think it matters where we finish.
We have one thing going for us, Andre villas boas.
He is regarded as one of the best young managers in European football and has a big name around Europe.
If we keep him, then we WILL sign players.

Agree0 Disagree0

Not sure CL is important to Eriksen, was thinking of looserpool, and they will be lucky to make Europe

Agree0 Disagree0

Hope your right davo. That boy is going to be top quality. Again, its now time for levy to put the team first and not profit.

Agree0 Disagree0

Is it true he's a spurs boy? Eds, fellow fans please clear this up for me because that's what I've been reading on this site cheers {Ed008's Note - I don't know if he's a Spurs fan..

Agree0 Disagree0
