he'll be like a new Berba, IMO. he's already 27 though, and they are supposedly asking a lot for him.
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11675/8034310/AVB-rules-out-Remy Note AVB has basically ruled out everyone the paps are talking about, hence the invention of the Llorente deal. Can't see it personaly. Would be happy with Lloris.
i'm taking all of that with a pinch of salt. He's hardly likely to come out and say "yeah we're signing all them" is he?
I disagree. I see Moutinho as the best replacement for Modric that we can hope for. Dembele can do a job from deep too, alongside Sandro for example, but I see him as someone who can cover both AM and CM positions. Nothing wrong with having two that can do the creative CM thing. Modric being the only solid option in that position messed us up last season imho. My order of preference / priority... Moutinho - Modric replacement Llorente / Damiao- NEW STRIKER!!!! (I think we need three senior strikers. I don't buy this 'Kane will step up' business.) Lloris - Friedal replacement Willian - Bale Lennon & AM cover (No cover for Lennon killed us last season.) Remy - Defoe replacement Lennon Cover (Defoe has just signed a new deal. Plus we still have GDS in the squad to cover Lennon, he may get a chance.) Just my opinion. ....I have a feeling that VDV would like to move sooner or later anyway, so I see Levy cashing in now whilst he can.
Llorente's being linked with Liverpool today. I can't see him signing for either of us, to be honest. Excellent player though, with only a year left on his deal.
http://www.talksport.co.uk/radio/hawksbee-and-jacobs/120830/pinto-moutinho-tottenham-still-179883 70% chance according to this guy and "very very likely" have a listen. 25-30mill euro's he reckons.
Ordered some fine zoot for tomorrows transfer deadline day...think I'll treat myself to a takeaway too... Today is the day before the day so I suspect it to be quite and tomorrow Levy will have his moment of 'I told you you bunch of Yids' AVB will be like Augustus Gloop in Willy Wonkas chocolate factory...spoilt for choice.
If you get Remy then you have done very well.. I heard we were linked with him previously so I did some computer scouting on the lad and he is a very good player.. Very technical and very dangerous in front of goal... Best of luck to you in getting him.. (I'm guessing you will sign him on deadline day just to be slightly more dramatic).
