    Sky sports news as annouced that Frederic Kanoute is going to Tottenham and Mattew etherington is going to West Ham in the same deal. Idont beleive any money is envolved its a straight switch.Kanoute still has to pass a medical for the deal to be done.

    I think thats kinda dumb. What in hell do Spurs need four strikers for? It's not as if they're in Europe and will have lots of games and need rotation.

    And it's not as if their midfield couldn't do with a bit of love care and attention.

    I dunno it looks like Zamora isn't even going to be making the bench.

    thats a good point but what puzzles me is etherington was starting to become a regular in the team on the left side

    Freddie can play on the right or in th midfelid aswell...
    Maybe they just want him because he covers a lot of options?

    Glenn Hoddle is a muppet, what is he doing? I'd say at least one striker will be a fringe player by the middle of next season, probably Zamora. He really should be focusing on his midfield oh and his defence actually maybe a new keeper too:D . I don't see this is a good move for Kanoute, West Ham will most probably be back in the PL next year anyway.

    what is hoddle doing? signing 3 new strikers, postiga, zamora and kanoute. robbie wont be too happy.

    Ah now, in fairness to greedy little Robbie Keane, is he far better than all 3 players, he is a lazy fat batsard, but he has a spark and just makes little things look exciting, the lad has class and IMHO he will only get better, methinks Hoddel knows this aswell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,563 ✭✭✭sikes


    i think that hoddle will play a diamond type formation.

    kanoute postiga

    keane

    poyet redknapp davies

    ziege richards king carr

    keller

    need a defensive mf. is van blommel a defensive midfielder. any one know?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭Lennoxschips


    i'm stilled stunned that hoddle decided to trade one of his most promising players for freddie kanoute. what an idiot, this is unbelievable. why did etherington agree to the deal as well?

    yes van bommel is a defensive midfielder. he's the poor man's keane/vieira. (the dutch david batty with curls)

    Im amazed..

    I go to spurs a lot as I live close to White Hard Lane, and Etherington has been looking better and better over the last while..

    And to get that looser who could not get in west ham's team, so he can sit on the bench beside Rebrov is amazing..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,842 ✭✭✭s8n


    rebrov is gone now is'nt he??

    i found out that tottenham will also pay #.5 million what a crap deal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,687 ✭✭✭tHE vAGGABOND


    rebrov was in turkey on loan for 18 months..

    But they sent him back early :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 697 ✭✭✭uRbaN


    lol @ rebrov poor feller.....yeah keane is a fat little dipso, but hes a cheeky classy player all the same. Methinks hoodle hasnta rasher what he is doing, but as for etherington, hoddle obv convinced him that his future was not with spurs....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,687 ✭✭✭tHE vAGGABOND


    yeah keane is a fat little dipso
    jasus lads, where did all this Robbie Keane bashing come from?

    he was good for spurs last year, and he is Irelands only hope up front for the next bag load of years...

    so I would be nice to him if I were you :)
