    I was guessing that was your theme after you had Belaid, then Pusic. So I guess it'd be Fathi from last season on that pattern!

    Exceedingly ... not an intentional Mr Kipling reference when started but fits nicely with today's food theme in honour of young Tom ...

    More seriously, very good passer that needed to leave Spurs to further his career - good move for all concerned.

    I have heard a lot of pundits say he is the closest player Spurs had to Hoddle since he left.

    I hope that's true.

    Cracking signing for you . <ok>

    On his day, Huddlestone's vision and passing of the ball is unreal. He'll ping 60 yard balls to feet. I'm not sure how your team is looking these days, but if you've got some lads with pace, he'll provide decent service and create opportunities.

    He's also got a hell of a strike on him, but he just doesn't shoot enough! you need to be shouting "shoot" at him from the stands <ok>

    As I'm sure you're aware, the "huddlefro" will only be cut once he's scored a goal. So far he has raised £80k for charity.

    Fair play guys, it's the sort of signing which shows that you mean business and want to stay in the premiership.

    Good luck.

    Cheers mate.

    I wonder how long he will have the Huddlefro for while here... I think he'll score early on for us. Which is a shame as I like the fro.

    If it's raised £80K then Allam will make him keep the moniker as it obviously has better commercial value than the one he was given. :1980_boogie_down:

    I'm sure he'll want to impress early on, so you might see him shoot more than usual. it's the only frustrating thing about him. Fantastic technique, but just doesn't do it enough!

    Touche, not an intentional turtle reference, as that wouldn't fit your food theme unless of course you like it as a soup.

    Anyway, cheers for the serious comment at the end, let's hope you are right!

    What a signing

    Huddlestone

    A few days ago never thought in my dreams we'd have him

    Thats just an absolutely MASSIVE boost to our midfield

    Well done on these signings! I know many Leicester fans have a little animosity with Hull but for one I think Huddlestone in particular will be very useful. Good luck next season.

    What's his nickname with the fans? Loo Brush? Brillo? Sicknote?
