    If you go on twitter you can smell the fear coming from the mouser.

    The mouser is upset and frustrated with Spurs entering the Willian race....

    Villas-Boas has been after Willian for about 2 years. I don't think we can be accused of jumping on someone else's targets with this one.

    I don't think we ever can. Do they seriously think we would wait to see who they bid for?

    I know they are famous for being delusional but they have now become paranoid too.

    Siggy isn't crap. He is not a world beater, and I think we will see him get better... but he is not crap

    Dempsey was though.

    Are you kidding me?

    Awsome if true. He's scored today hasn't he?
    Would like to see him get some time vs Swansea if possible

    Ok, would you rather have Gylfi or Jack Wilshire?


    PS there is a correct answer to this...

    Gylfi's talent with Wilshere's enthusiasm / desire would make for a great player.

    Gylfi, because Wilshere is obnoxious. In terms footballing ability i'm not sure.

    Who is Carroll's dad?

    Jack - Arsenal Notspur - 61 games - 1 goals - 9 assists

    They are different type of players and 95 % of the football cosmos realise that Jack is a far better player.
    I agree he is a bit of a pratt but no more silly than like's of Defoe .
    On the open market Sigg would be worth max 9 million , the arse player 25 to 35 million.
    That really says it all.
    I just see Sigg bringing no real quality to the team.

    Heard the AVB interview, says Bale hasn't played his last game for the club but won't feature against Tsibili due to his injury. Also denies a bid for Willian has been made. Also the ticker on SSN says Holtby is back training, which is nice news.

    I think people get carried away with styles of play vs actual meaningful contributions.

    Siggy had a number of really good efforts saved last year. and still managed more goals and assists than someone who everyone thinks is amazing.

    I like the way that Wilshire plays, but he is less effective than Ramsey now.

    I don't see how you think they are different players, in a 4-3-3 both occupy the same spots.

    Whilst gylfi may not be as classy as some players, he does actually provide assists, goals and pot shots.

    I think people judge him unfairly. He is a worthwhile squad player imo, just like Defoe and Lennon. They may not be able to walk into a top 4 first team, but you still need you Darren fletchers, Gareth Barry's etc.
