    The ever reliable Di Marzio reckons this is all close to completion. Mental deal but will probably kick start the window now with Willian and Lamela expected to join Spurs.

    Coentrao + Willian + Lamela + 30-40m to spare for Bale... What a deal!

    If it comes off this puts them right up there. Closer to you and City but just enough behind as far as you're concerned but puts them well ahead of United and Arsenal. Could well be 1 of 3 fighting for 4th place United, Liverpool and if I'm being honest a not very realistic Arsenal.

    That deal, for me, would instantly whack Spurs in the top 3 and make them title contenders imo.

    Would be a massive deal for them. Would definitely force us to invest further. Their team will get title candidate strong by next season.

    I'd drop Bale off to the Bernabau myself.

    if true a blinding deal for the spuds
    can see them being a good outside bet for the title, should make them nailed on for CL place next season

    Madrid must be absolutely mental.

    Great deal for Spurs if true and if the money is invested wisely, this could turn them into a very good side.

    They don't have it in them to win it as they have bottled all but one chance to finish in the top four but with that deal they will certainly get a top four spot behind us City & United. <ok>

    Agree. I don't think they're title contenders as they don't have the mentality or manager IMO, but they'd definitely get top 4 once the side gels.

    I'm just heading that way next week so thought I'd save Madrid the Ryan Air fare...they need it.

    Absolutely fantastic piece of business for 5pu1s if this is true.

    Deal of the decade if it happens. Just shows those constantly trashing the "tea boy" can go eat their hats. Terrific manager, involved in terrific deals. What we've needed for years and look like we have again.

    I think it will take the spuds 2 more years to get a top 3 finish

    Probably, it depends on whether Mourinho can make Chelsea title contenders again, and if Moyes can KEEP United as title defenders and how well Pellegrini does at City.
    I personally dont think anyone will break that top 3 this season.

    It's Levy negotiating the deal not AVB.
