Yea I agree. I think he really could be amazing if given a chance. Hopefully he'll excel this season. Would love to see it.

The potential here is obvious for anyone to see. Ultimately, the two big questions are whether or not Harry has the confidence in him to produce the goods on a consistent basis together with the conundrum on where he would fit into the team?! A team with Dos Santos, Lennon and Modric stinks of a lack of physicality which would be a blatant problem for us.

He's looking sharp though in pre-season and his touch on for Bale the other night against Benfica was exquisite!

I reckon Harry will leave it til the last minute for a few late swoops for some players. There are teams out there (i.e. Man City) who will have no other choice but to clean out a few players before finalising their 26 man squad...

YIDS!

Off topic, but wondering if anyone knows where I can get a new spurs jersey?? Was looking to get it off www.soccertriads.com but they still haven't got the new one available yet.

Any one any ideas or other sites that have it??

Thanks

Hi T-b0n3,

Check ou this site:

http://www.lightinthebox.com/wholesale-Soccer-Jersey_c957

I see that they have a version of the new Spurs jersey - Bizarrely with Holsten as the sponsor rather than Autonomy! Might be good for that ultra retro look

I know that this site is based in China. I've never bought a jersey from them but I've purchased a phone from them which arrived safe and sound.

You can also get the new Ireland kit on this site for next to nothing!

Cheers,

Jim

So City want rid of Adebayor... If he'd take a severely cut wage I'd snap him up. That celebration last season kinda made me smile.

everdead.ie · 07-08-2010 10:20pm

Redknapp was saying he has three players he wants to bring in but he can't get other players sold and when we think about it in the squad who is there we can afford to let go? Bently maybe but he's injured so it's unlikely we'll sell him. O'Hara maybe? Naughton? Jenas?

Or Perhaps Levy wants us to reach the group stages of the champions league before he releases funds?

No, but linked with Fulham today. I thought we would have signed him up, especially for Champs League.

If Gio is stepping up to the plate I would rather keep him than Eidur.

Mullo76 · 10-08-2010 1:08pm

I really wish we would go out and buy another centre half. I think we are way too light there for the season coming up. In all the pre-season friendlies we gave away soft goals - now I understand they were friendlies and not best combination playing etc,etc, but I really think an injury to Daws and we are in trouble. I do not like the look of Charlie or Hudd there.

everdead.ie · 14-08-2010 9:11am

Anyone know anything about us signing the young Honduran striker? Only 17 but he looks huge and built

Ps Gallas would be a fantastic free signing as long as he comes in and plays well the crowd will love him.

Are you serious? William FCUKING Gallas? Ex scum? Does Harry want to turn the crowd against him or what? I hope it's a ruse and Harry's after someone else....

If he can do a job and help take us above Arsenal you won't be saying that

this immature approach has to stop. cole went to chelsea, did the fans hate him. did the arsenal fans hate campbell, of course not.

gallas is good enough and should be taken on board

I don't know, Gallas is a bit of a nut case. Said he'd score OG's for Chelsea unless they'd let him leave etc? I for one certainly don't want him.

Rahl · 14-08-2010 5:55pm

I thought that we were in talks with Gallas and he rejected us because we wouldn't give him the two year deal he wanted?

Hatch99 · 14-08-2010 7:59pm

Gallas = cnut.

80/90 odd grand a week for a fella like him, no thanks...

Maybe the arsenal fans didn't hate campnell but a large proportion of them never warmed to him either.

As for gallas he;s past it. Forget him!

PS I think Arry is in a wind up when he keeps mentioning ex goons like Gallas and Viera

I hate Gallas, he's a total and utter cnut .
But I will spport Harry's judgment he he signs Gallas.
Can't see myself cheering on that prick though :mad:

there is no 80 / 90 grand a week. harry has said that he is not being greedy at all, our cap is 60k a week i think so obviously he is not asking for anymore than that

we are short on centre halves for all competitions, gallas has done it at every level. he would be a good free!!!

kakee · 15-08-2010 11:14am

Surely Harry could find a better option than william gallas ffs. Harry was at the world cup and would I thought he would have seen something.
Do we really want this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PTUMgpHPn0. Why not go for someone like Gary Cahill or Roger Johnston, young,english and good defenders.

ziedth · 15-08-2010 11:28am

Young and English = 3 or 4 million more then they are worth though in my opinion. Having said that though I do like Cahill!

Surely it's cover we need more then a big player because few are better then woody, Dawson and King when fit.

kakee · 15-08-2010 11:37am

Yeah you are right about the boys we have but the fact is that Woodgate may never play again and Ledley can't play every week. I know we have Bassong. Say we didn't sign a top defender in this window what would happen if we got one our two bad injuries before janurary.

our season will be in serious trouble if that happens. we need bodies people and im starting to get a little worried that we may not get them in. we will get caught up then in the euphoria of the champs league and get thumped every sat

gary cahill is 15 million quid. way too expensive

Loic Remy could be on his way this week to spurs or marseille this week

I'd nearly take anybody at this stage. But who do we offload to make room? By the way I've read Joe Cole was awful today for Liverpool before getting a red card

ziedth · 15-08-2010 7:40pm

Good enough for him,

I suppose can't blame him for choosing to be a medium fish in a small pond

I can't believe that a team that was so off the pace last Season can be talked up for signing a player who can't cut it a poor juve team and someone who thinks they can't break into the spurs team

part of me wanted arsenal to hit them for six today.
