    Nice of Barca to leak the story about them having Modric watched, isn't it?
    As there's clearly no place in their squad for him, I can only think that they're either trying to stop him from moving, by hinting at a future transfer or getting his price up.

    LOL Mido has signed for Barnsley!

    its certainly going to be an interesing summer PNP, with a lot of changes.

    Management, coaching staff, player out, players in.

    regardless of what happens, it's going to be bloody entertaining!

    QPR are the new West Ham.

    So now we know where Bentley and Jenas will be appreciated...

    That's just surreal.

    I'm still convinced that Sky pay us to do bizarre things, so that they'll always have something to talk about! <laugh>
    The last day of the transfer window would be ****e without us, for a start.

    Gotta say PNP, I think I agree! Deadline day is always a great day for us fans. Both should be days that every spurs fan books off work!!

    Goal.com have claimed that we're still on to sign Vertonghen.
    Does that mean that we're not?

    Levy is still at the club, and he was the person determined to make this deal go through. That does mean we can't comment too loudly about Chelsea signing players without a manager in place, mind...

    The player must be wondering whats going on at the club, as signing for a club that has just sacked their manager must cause some concern for certain players.

    Unless of course you're being offered 150k pw then that can ease the concerns!

    Just been a small feature on SSN about Verts. Agent saying "the deal is close. Very close", and that Redknapp's departure has not affected the player's decision.

    i'm surprised it hasn't. money set aside, he must be concerned about some instability having just seen the manager get sacked? with all the other interest there supposedly is, i'm surprised he's not looking elsewhere to be honest. as it stands we have pretty much no strikers either. surely the current situation has got to be some sort of spanner in the works?

    or is it??!!

    ...Unless of course, he knew about levy's plan to sack redknapp all along, and perhaps knows something we don't know. Maybe Levy told vertonghen about who our next manager is likely to be, as levy begun talks with a new potential manager weeks ago?!

    That's what immediately crossed my mind too. I imagine he knew Redknapp was set to leave, but I doubt he knows any more than me or you about who will replace him.

    A reliable ITK (I'm usually as suspicious of ITK's as everyone else) has said AVB is 100% done, it's simply legal/PL paperwork which needs finalising now, but take that with a large pinch of salt!

    It's official, we're Chelsea.

    Apart from we have credibility, our fans aren't entitled boneheads, our captain isn't racist, our football isn't piss boring to watch, and there's activity on our Not606 board...

    sorry HBIC, i don't get you here. have i missed something?

    SL, like you say, take any ITK with a pinch of salt. I'll believe it when i see it on the OS. Infact, I'll believe it when i see it on SSN, they are usually quicker. EDIT: I'll believe anything charlotte jackson says.

    So as it stands we need:

    2 strikers
    1-2 new CB's (depending on whether we get rid of bassong too, and what happens to gallas or king?? Nelsen's already left too)
    Another versatile winger
    A Goalkeeper
    A new manager + coaching team
    Potentially a DOF

    o and by no means least, some grass on WHL!!

    and the challenge of holding on to the existing core of our team.

    Tough, tough summer.

    How have ITV2 not done a show about us yet? "The Hotspurs". i can vision it. <laugh>

    We're signing players without having a manager in place.

    Then again, didn't we sign Robbo the last time Pleat was caretaker?

    o right, i get ya now! <doh>

    really hoping that Levy's kept a pot of gold to one side, for whoever comes in.

    surely the club know of the improvements we need?
