    Over on Sky Sports' website there's a poll of our entire squad asking who we should keep or sell

    For some reason I get the feeling fans of other teams have been voting judging by the percentages...
    Jan Vertonghen 94% keep 6% sell
    Christian Eriksen 94% keep 6% sell
    Son Heung-min 94% keep 6% sell
    Davinson Sanchez 93% keep 7% sell
    Dele Alli 90% keep 10% sell
    Harry Kane 88% keep, 12% sell
    Lucas Moura 88% keep, 12% sell
    Ben Davies 88% keep, 12% sell
    Eric Dier 85% keep 15% sell
    Harry Winks 81% keep 19% sell
    Toby Alderweireld 73% keep 27% sell
    Pablo Gazzaniga 60% keep 40% sell
    Fernando Llorente 16% keep 84% sell
    GKN 14% keep 86% sell

    ...you get the idea.

    50/50 (the same as CCV, it has to be said)

    To compare him to the other lightning rods in the team, Lamela is 63% keep 37% sell, Aurier is 56% keep 44% sell while Sissoko is 14% keep 86% sell

    And now it's Richard Keys' turn to regurgitate the "Spurs' new stadium means they'll have to sell players" lie.

    So I guess with a heavy heart Saltypool will have to sell Salah to pay for the redevelopment of their ground then...

    I suspect that some non-Spurs fans may have voted.
    6% want to sell Vertonghen, Eriksen and Son? Don't think so.

    I think it's essentially correct though. He speaks of a new project with us - no1 is done. The one more go will be 3/4 years (if embraced by the club) and then he'd be ready for something else. And we'll wave him off polishing our League titles and CL trophies, not begrudging him a new adventure.

    Hack blurb claiming that Wanyama is the latest
    to join Toby on Pochettinos' 'Walker list' .

    And surprise surprise, like Toby he is also
    going to Man Utd.

    Was going to make the same point. Then I noticed the 12% wanting to sell Kane. Would a single Spurs fan want to sell Harry? I doubt it

    Genuine basis for an article on Harry Hotspur

    "One of my mates is good friends with Wanyama’s agent. Apparently Poch has had a falling out with Wanyama and doesn’t speak to him (at training etc). The word is Wanyama is off to Man Utd for £40m. Will be interesting to see if this is true."

    Somehow that's one of their more credible articles...

    My mate Cathy works as a school counsellor. She is married to an Aston Villa fan who is called Alex.
    Alex works in the city and his boss has a wife called Maisey who gets her hair cut in a salon on the Old Kent Road. Her hairdresser is called Zak and he drinks with a guy called Albert , who knew the Krays...says they were good lads...we're kind to there mum...he got a cab to asda in Beckton as as he got out he saw Wanyama getting into a cab talking on the phone. He over heard him telling some one that Pochettino was a twat and so he was goingyo play for that nice Mr Maureen bloke. True story...so I is officially in the know

    I nearly believed you but for the fact you said it
    was Albert, and not his dog, that overheard Wanyama.

    Going back to Harry Hotspur's latest "scoop" there's one thing that needs to be pointed out...

    Wanyama's agent is based in Barcelona

    So either the "mate" of their "source" lives in the same area of Barcelona that he might actually bump into Ivan Modia at the local supermarket, or the more likely option is what I've been saying all along: Harry Hotspur is just a blog for all those Twitter profiles using the LevyOut hashtag that mouth off just as badly as the ArsenalFanTV bods, for example...



    ...is it worth mentioning that a Twitter search of that hashtag almost exclusively reveals tweets from just those three?

    So not so much the case of a "metoo" hashtag, as "wethree" .

    I hate to dredge up the "real fans" argument, but bloody hell it doesn't take long to go through their tweets and find yourself getting very, very bored - especially because most of their arguments are about as reasoned as a teenager stomping off in a huff and slamming their bedroom door behind them three times

    On the subject of stroppy teenagers with nothing of note to say...

    Robbo is a beast. I'd play him at CB even now.
