Another Deal With Barca On The Cards

At this rate, our junior team is going to end up packing more punch than the first eleven... :P

any news on Bentley, or Gomes Harry?

Sid. In word, no. Apologies.

Johnny Two Saints, love it!!.... I smell a nickname.

harry, i thought bentley was signed and sealed? and wot bout gomes. and who are these players. please write back cheers

Fuck being Bracelona's training camp

Ollie, I think my headlines were '95% Done' on Bentley and 'In For'... in relation to Gomes. That said I would expect to see something official to appear soon. Also mate, remember that Ince has

only been there days... And it is unlikely given we only have one slot to fill under the heading 'Goal Keeper' it is highly unlikely we'll sign one before Robbo's gone. Not impossible, but
unlikely.

This is looking like fun. We'll be able to field our 'second-string kiddy eleven' against the scum.

Harry - this news is odd as it almost suggests that some kind of mutually beneficial arrangement with Barca has been reached. I realise that knocking a few million quid their way in exchange for a few of their players could be seen as mutually beneficial enough, but I wonder if it goes any deeper than that.

Thats what I said

Maybe part of the deal is that they take all Arsenal good players as well

Nine_Thirty-Seven, interesting and precisely in the way you suggest. I don't have any other info, which is a pity. But it would be interesting to see if this 'relationship' between the two parties blossoms.

Henry's the type of wanker who'd probably admit to the barcelona players that are supports ten times better

Tried youtube - LINK

He looks quite handy!

May as well get the chap, no harm in a little gamble.

Word everywhere is we are offering £8m plus Lennon for DB. Seems like we will be paying over the odds for him.

More worrying though is news that we are after Crouch and Benayoun - why? We already have squad players of their capability.

I think the Crouch story is cobblers.

Laugh all you like but Crouch would be a good signing

I clicked on that youtube link, thinking the hook said: "He looks quite dandy!"

Imagine my disappointment to see not some bloke resplendent in top hat and tails, but conversely up to some kind of footballing hijinx...

Sounds promising Harry

Im a firm beleiver in the theory that if you're good enough you're old enough.

If the kid is as good as he is made out to be then 2 questions have to be asked

1- Why are they offereing him to us?
2- Why should we take him on loan see how great he is then just let him go back to Barca, career prospects enhanced and they get the benefits.

I would like to see us take him on loan with the option of a permanent deal at the end of his loan. Iron Clad loan contract so they cant change his value when he shows how good he is.

Keep up the good work Harry!!

I rate Crouch. I genuinely like his work. But this story has an air of 'shoe repair and key cutting here' about it.

Crouch you say? Also suggested as a replacement for AC Milan bound (if his agent, Phil Smith's, aspirations are to be realised) Adebayor, by self-proclaimed 'super agent' Vincenzo Morabito - acting for Adebayor in Italy. Interesting as when Spurs and Arsenal are both 'in the frame' for a player, in my experience this usually means one probably is (and the other isn't) and an agent/s/ or club/s would like to expedite matters. Portsmouth have had a bid for our robotic ex charge batted back already and Man City have also been accused of 'firming up'.

Harry, besides the football relationship (if there is one), a little psychology may be involved in the recruitment of this dude. Assuming he could come purely on merit of his ability, it will surely help him and Dos Santos to settle into N17 life and feel less isolated if they arrive 'in packs' or small communities.

I've often thought that signing Modric (apart from his presence as a player) could benefit Berbatov (as would the signing of Arshavin), because of their eastern-Europe backgrounds. Players can't perform if their minds aren't right - as Robbo's example shows.

Cheers for the news. Power to the Ramos.

might be a sweetner in a berbs deal to barca. crouch at the lane, dont make me laugh let him go to the scum. coys

the goss is driving me mad but love it at the same time,crouch 10ft tall better on the ground that in the air,nice bird though,bently can cross the ball,gomez can catch,punch,and throw the ball further than he can kick it. he also beats up his centre halves and saves pentlies roll on should be fun.we need someone one in the middle of the park like edgar davids was for one half of a season

think you'll find 9-37 that they may come from around the same area in europe but they dont speak the same lanuage apart from the language of football

Never mind all this WHERE'S VINNY ?

:(

ouchie to crouchie

We sold couch for 100k remember and in my opinion it was a fucked good deal. The guy is the worse striker in the prem. and if he's worth 15m Bent is worth 70m and Berbs is worth 200m.

Harry. Maybe we could put up posters ?




On the other hand Vinny's absence does allow more space for everyone else !

Morgan. If you think Bent is worth more than Crouch you need to lay down for a while.

Unless you mean a different Bent to the hopeless bloke who turned out for us last season.

Alonso or Gaba (Gareth Barry) aint guna happen now but maybe it blumin shoulda...?
If we do end up catching someone loike Diarra and praps Bentley or even SWP ent we in serious danger of having the most diminutive midfield in England - along with Modric, GDS, Lennon?, Steed, Zokora (ahem) we will brushed all over de place.
PS. isnt David Bentley a bit of a fecking bell thatl probably only last around 5 minutes - why not SWP on stilts for christs sake...

ok harry thanks for the info mate, do u kno wen the deals will be finilised like wot sort of time scale. before pre-season? thanks mate, write back as soon as possible.

"I think the Crouch story is cobblers."

If it is cobblers then surely you would have run it as a headline

Crouch.....no. Unless he is going to teach the pea plants in the Spurs garden patch how to grow then I see no use for him.

Gomes and Bentley. Harry, we have prayed and still waiting. How long does it take to prove they can run on a treadmill for 90 minutes (medical)?

Perez sounds awesome and youtube video looks good (as they all do). I reckon he could be a more exciting bench prospect than 'eyes-to-the-floor, multiple-stepover' Taarabt!

Let me know when Robinson leaves so I can flip the bird!

just wayched the video of the spanish kid Adrià Carmona Pérez.

First thoughts..... SIGN HIM UP NOW the guy has got a fantastic left foot on him and the cross for his assist was first class. (its the kind of cross Aaron Lennon wishes he could hit!)

I know he's young and yes its another youtube compilation but you can see from how he beat his man and how he took his goals that he has talent.

Like i said before.... ''If your good enough, your old enough''

according to dutch press, gomes is officially ours!

yo Dave Mackay, i think it is you who needs to lie down. Bent is a proven prem striker who can score 20 a season no probs. dont ever see that from crouch.

before you start whining on about his lack of show last season....

may i remind you about Berba's first games for spurs. he was so negative he was demoted to bench. but he slowly gained confidence and grew into what he is now.

if bent had a little more support from fickle supporters like yourself, and you stop expecting every new spurs signing to be the next zidanaldinho, he and players like him may have a chance to survive.


on a completely different note; it occured to me today that the gooners have been excusing their 5-1 thrashing by the mighty spurs due to them playing their 'youngsters'.

these same gooners are now saying 'who cares if Falmini, Hleb, Henry et al have left. we have our youngsters coming through...

but surely we've already found out that their youngsters are, well.... erm... lacking.

If you put the link below into Google and ask it to translate, it says Gomes will be 'under the bar' at tottenham next season for 9million euros:

we need a definsive mid like toullalan

why doesnt harry just say we are not getting
bentley and this must be rubbish 95% done bentley having medical can u up date me on this

Ike, take up smoking.



Just a passing comment/fair warning... comments that don't pass muster, ie 'wen is we signin Beckham, harry?' will be dumped on quality control grounds.

This isn't an overspill for BBC 606'ers /or a creche .

al jazeera news reporting now that spurs have just completed the signing of peter crouch, who is to play in goal.

infadel indagoal

its all good and well for the reserves but can we sort out our first team please! plus why are we getting rid of bent and why are we linked with crouch? to me that is a step in the wrong direction! get rid of berbs because in all honestly he is showing no loyalty and wants to sit on the bench for a championsleague club! get rid of robbo because i am sick of hearing he needs confidence! also lennon has gone down hill since his opearation! etc.. just get rid of flops like chimponda, rocha, taino, and i believe if we can do all that we will be up into 5 again

HH, actually a number of Dutch sources are suggesting the Gomes deal is agreed; 4-yr contract; Euros£9m

toullalan!?! lyon would want about 25 mill for him and plus he prob wants cahmpions league football!! but i agree we do need a defensive midfielder who will hold up the ball and organise the midfield.. someone like cambiasso or xavi!

Spuds you like / Chirpy.... I'm on it!

On phone to my clog-wearing chum as I type... Remain vigilant, broken by sources as reliable as premiershiplatest and goal.com... Da Telegraf know nothing, yet...

onedave... I do think Bent is better than couch, I also think id rather pull Shilton out of the bookies and stick him up front than that useless lanky piece of crap who only got the England fans to sing for him cause he took the piss out of himself with a stupid dance. I still think that wasnt a dance it was him trying to jump!!

Sorry DoubleH, they're all watching soft porn and drinking lager-beer. Can't stand it up yet, there's nothing on the wires and no-one realiable is repeating the tale; I'm off home for a lovingly
prepared chicken dinner.

Tottenham Announced on their website a deal has been struck with PSV for Gomes, Good News, Woohoo!!

smells like burnt sprouts

harry its a done deal for gomes lees gone to psv. I hope we keep lennon with the octapus long throws lennon will away please harry spread the word lennon stays because i have seen the future without lennon and its ? ??

Well I have to say I have always been dubious over the one man band's of football team news etc.... But GDI Harry you have won me over. I am pleased to say that I for one am pleased over the likely move for Gomes, I hope Bentley is brought in (not at the expense of Lennon), but we are still in desperate need of a centre half (Ledley has a bad record and I would not be willing to place all my trust with Dawson). Another right back as the Chimp was not himself this season and wants out either way. A left midfielder and a striker if Berb is off.... Any news for any of the above Harry?? Tall order I realise for a response on all.....

Hog, Cheers, my belief is that another defender is on the way. No. I don't know who. The point is, Ramos & Co are busy trying to fix what you and me and every other ordinary decent fan could see that was wrong.

BIOYC!
