    I highly doubt it would progress so quickly and I imagine if Spurs accepted a £5m bid for someone a lot of the press would've picked up on it already.

    Won't be Naughton, AVB wants to have a look at him before he decides whether to sell or not. Won't have had a chance yet.

    Who's to say that Clyne is a lower quality option than Naughton anyway? If Adkins thinks he represents better value then who are we to argue?

    And taking that argument to it's logical conclusion, we should be spending £40m on Philipp Lahm or someone.

    Well all we know from Nixon is - player has been linked to us before, and it is not Buttner.


    Lets call them Player X.

    Everything's gone quiet on the Matt Jarvis and/or Michu front?

    Trying to think, just checked and Nixon says it's a "First XI" player, not a fringe player.

    That Tomas Sivok the Czech CB we were linked to is still a free agent.

    And no thanks we already have Morgan!

    my bet is its buttner and he just is doing his job making us get excited and buy the paper for the article or get a few followers..

    Nah. We can see the brief articles of what's in the paper online at 11pm. I genuinely don't think it is going to be Buttner.

    He explicitly said it's not Büttner.

    Clues so far: "Starter. Good player. Right profile." and has been mentioned before...

    Any guesses?

    So? <laugh>

    It's had a mention... could this be, a passing mention before that died quickly, or a sarcastic understatement - for example Butland who has clearly had more than just "a mention"? Actually either answer is looking too far into it. I'll wait and see.

    Does seem sarcastic. Might well have been mentioned a lot. I'm guessing it's not Butland though.

    Jarvis?

    Scanning through Nixon tweets and his written articles: So far all I have is Buttner, Butland, Naughton, Davis (signed now), also included Phillips/Ince due to Blackpool looking at a winger, but he tweeted that back on the 21/06/12. A few times he's mentioned a player from abroad but never there name.

    I guess it's only a 24hr wait.... which most likely turn into a 2 week wait :)

    Naughton has played in the Prem and had a good season with Norwich.Clyne hasn't played in the Premier league.

    Lambert hasn't played in the premier league, Heskey has. Shall we swap them?

    Sneaky feeling it's Scott Dann/Liam Trotter/De Bruyne.

    Nixon just said that the player is from England.

    That's a no-brainer. Heskey is world class.
