Spurs In For Gomes

Friday, 20 June 08, 07:34 PM · Posted by HarryHotspur

Well at long last  the waiting's over and word in tonight from a big PSV Eindhoven fan is Heurelho Gomes is off to Tottenham. This tale is confirmed by Spurs Odious' Archibald but thankfully no one one the sportsdesk at The Sun. I don't have a fee for you yet but a good guess might be around the reported £11.6 million they were rumoured to be asking a month ago. If true, Tottenham's chances of mounting a realistic challenge for top four footy next season just increased dramatically.

Although I have no idea if this guy is any good or not, I hope he joins as I was concerned at some of the other goalie rumours i.e. McGregor, Green, Carson, Hart - as they all fit the Robbo mould of goalkeeping. None of them are athletic looking, a few of them need to stay out of Burger King, and all of them could do with being a few inches taller. At least this guy looks like he has the flexibility and athleticism to be a goalie.

Great news I loved his attitude when we played PSV last season Gomes veloso & Bentley plus a centre back, if Berb doesn't go what a great squad next season.. Any more news on Bentley or veloso???

I don´t know! He´s very good on the line, but his field work is at times a heck of alot worse than robbo at his worst!

Hes got balls and he throws himself about, good puncher and shot-stopper, I'd say Ramos wanted him since PSV played, I'd say he was frothing at the mouth to get him.

I would like to see Bentley in a Spurs shirt before I believe Gomes is also joining. And umm, where is all this money coming from?

I Like Gomes, although He can seem to be a bit Clumsy.

Pod was simply caught out of context.

" what do you think of Spurs interest Mr podolski?"

"Meh, interesting I guess,"

Passing comments reported very well. Id love Pod to be interested but I am in a quandry thus far as to wether it is likely.

Gomes works for me. My fear tho... Are we losing our identity with all these signings? I know our identity is a little slack off the top four, but are we changing too much in a short period. I sneered at chelski, and I sneered at City. If we go as mad as it appears we may this summer, I may have to become two faced

Some people have only remembered Gomes penalty saves plus one or two others during the games, they have forgoten the way he consistantly flapped and panicked under pressure from crosses!!!
Please not him, get Brad Freidel to come with Bentley!! Now he's a consistantly good keeper.

Simply put, Gomes is the best keeper we could realistically get. If true, this is a great signing.

Dear Readers, Tom huddlestone is one of many giants without a real home. Despite tons of ability, his inconsistancy to exceed our heavy expectations have left him wandering in and out of the spurs line up.

Please, adhere to our plea, by giving just one pound a month toward finding Tom Huddlestone a regular place in the spurs Side.

Hugglestone in goal! Problem solved

I wouldn't like him at the lane. Flimsy, mental and drops everything. No thanks.

the moneys coming out of our tickets!! anyway - gomes is quality...he does flap at crosses a wee bit..however he does punch them out..he may not catch them...but at least he touches them..unlike robbo. doesnt get beat by 30m shots..and probably one of the best shot stoppers in the game.
