    AC Milan target Tottenham ace van der Vaart

    Absolutely agree that we should keep him - quality players are hard to lure. We should ideally be looking to shed the last few average players such as Gomes, Pav, Bassong and Dos Santos, and sign a couple of further quality players such as Leandro and Tasci/Cahill.

    Tottenham Hotspur v Stoke City Match History 1896-2011

    I think the problem with our forwards is that we have all known for a few seasons now that individually they have strengths, but there are no stand-outs. Defoe and Pav will undoubtedly score the most, but the former is greedy and not the best link-up player, whilst the latter offers more of a...

    Leandro scores for Brazil

    Very good player - but we all know that. Let's hope that Levy has already set up a deal for January 2012. If not there's always Carlton Cole!

    Gary Cahill to spark bidding war

    Unfortunately our chance has probably gone with regards to signing Cahill. I'm guessing Bolton didn't require the cash and are happy to take a smaler cut in Jan or nothing next Summer as they would rather have him in their team for another season - which is fair play to be honest. In short, if...

    Anyone Else Getting fed up with Harry?

    IMO we lack any real leadership on the pitch. Dawson is great when paired with Gallas or King, but give him the reins and he seems to doubt himself. VDV is probably the next best, but tries to do everything himself and often is unable to last the full 90 mins. Parker will at least offer some...

    Another one bites the dust.

    Yes, it seems that wages are now spiralling further out of control. I'm not sure whether we should follow such a path, but perhaps it says more about the state of the sport and also the mentality of the players themselves that despite having progressed notably over the last couploe of seasons...

    Wigan want Dos Santos

    I second that motion. If we could just get shot of half a dozen of the fringe players and replace with a couple of quality ones and pay them higher wages through monies saved, then that's got to be the way forward.

    Another one bites the dust.

    Bellamy, COle, Parker, Friedal, Hargreaves - what is it with Harry and the 'old boys' brigade. I've nothing against any of the aforementioned players, but the truth is that their best days are well behind them. The only one worth taking is Parker, primarily because he offers something in...

    Sky confirm West Ham are in talks with Spurs .

    Putting aside our ongoing differences with West Ham, I think on face value Parker is a very good player and would strengthen our first team. I actually think that he would perform every bit as well as Diarra, and would definitely add more attacking threat and the odd goal. Also, he has some...

    For what it's worth, The Sun says....

    Afternoon all, I mentioned yesterday that it wouldn't suprise me if a deal was put in place for Leandro - particularly as we have links with his club and that something could be arranged for a Jan 2012 arrival. I was told I'd been on the sauce! Having seen him play several times, I think he...

    Harry admits Cole liking

    Erm, not sure what's so strange. Nevermind.

    Harry admits Cole liking

    No drugs, although I may be in a trance believing that Spurs would actually make some progress this season. Oh Well.

    Diarra cools Spurs Talk

    Very strange that having finally broken into the top four, we appear to have sat back and stagnated rather than seized the opportunity. Perhaps the financial burden of a new stadium has take its toll, or that Levy does not want to entrust too much money with the England Manager position soon to...

    Harry admits Cole liking

    I would also add that I really don't understand why everything is being left to the 11th hour again. Whatever happened to getting players in and bedded in June/July so that they can be integrated with the squad and teh team can hit the floor running? I hope that we have two or three lined up...

    Harry admits Cole liking

    Cole was a decent player five years ago, but like Keane, his best year's are well behind him. Even on a free I don't see the point - we have Modric, VDV and Kranjkar for the AM role, with Bale, Lennon, Townsend, Rose and Bentley (and possible the new Spanish U21 chap) for the flanks. Looks...
