    Unfortunately I think this will happen. I reckon you'll end up paying through the nose though

    I don't think he'd suit our system and wouldn't buy him myself. If we do though, I wouldn't go higher than 50m.

  4. Just checked... yes, you are correct! For some reason, I had it in my mind that we had to play you at OT.

    Even better, then. It'll still be a tough game, but I think we ought to win that one.

    Of one thing in football you can be utter assured, that by no stretch of the imagination can any long-time Spurs fan be called a plastic!

    His stock has never been higher, he'll go for circa £80m this summer and there'll be a number of takers

    I think you're right, I wouldn't pay it though.

    The lad is class mate, but you have to play to his strengths and I'm not sure Chelsea if the right choice for him

    I'd rather see him go abroad personally

    Bit of a flat track bully...or maybe it's attitude in the bigger games...

  12. ...which is what makes the last two seasons fantastic for us Yids!

    And, which also makes Poch and this current exciting young Spurs side so much loved and revered.

  13. I lived and worked in Southampton for a while, Tobias. Much of my time was spent schmoozing and being schmoozed by banks and developers. I had numerous methods of corporate entertainment, and utilising the fact that Southampton had a Prem footy club was merely one of them.

    It really isn't rocket-science, working this kind of stuff out, Tobias.

    He scores more goals when up against weaker defenders, fairly standard that like

    So when you said you worked in the City you meant Southampton. You didn't need to use the capital C fella.

    He doesn't seem to show up at all in some of the bigger games. He looked disinterested in the derby.

    We were ****e in the derby though in fairness, we gave him **** all service

    He played for himself at OT though, he was desperate to score in that fixture

  20. No, Stan.

    When I said that I worked in Southampton, I was referring to that particular city.

    I have also (and still do, on occasions) work in the City.

    You have got to resist this temptation of yours to always find the clever angle, because you, invariable, fail, mate.
