So someone please tell me what exactly it is that Atlanta Yod has told us..as barring the mentioning of AVB, whose appointment appears a formality, he hasn't said anything, has he?

That everyone's excited about it? I guess as opposed to nievely hopeful or grudgingly tolerant.
 
Some bindipping fool:

Spurs taking big risks here. They already have a lock of players on CL wages and now they are doing the same again, risking a big spend to get back into the big time. The problem for them is they have a significantly lower annual revenue than Liverpool, a club that has been forced to adjust to life without CL for over three years now. If Spurs don't get back this season they will have wasted whatever cash they spent on players wages and be forced into dismantling their side at even greater cost. Meanwhile Modric looks like he is off and key players like Adebayor are unclear as to their future, while King is now perma broke and Parker burnt out from age/euros. High risk stuff. At least Liverpool as a club are adjusting to new economic realities, unsavoury as it is.
 
Pablo on COYS...

10am on Monday seems to be the time for AVB press conference and the Icelander (as long as he signs)

I know, amazing what a bored kid on the news desk at the Mirror can do. It's Oli Holts junior by the way.

as if Levy would ever take a high risk approach

Tottenham Hotspur's forgotten midfielder Giovani dos Santos is expected to complete a return to La Liga this weekend, with Sevilla and Atlético Madrid both keen on signing the Mexico international.
The 23-year-old has been given permission to leave Mexico's Olympic training squad to secure a permanent transfer from White Hart Lane, his coach has revealed, bringing to an end a miserable four-year spell in north London.
Dos Santos joined Spurs from Barcelona in 2008 for €6m, with a further €5m payable after a set number of appearances. That payment was never threatened as the attacking midfielder made only two Premier League starts for Spurs, who will be clear to appoint André Villas-Boas as manager from 1 July, and had spells on loan at Racing Santander, Galatasaray and Ipswich Town.
Mexico's Olympic football coach, Luis Fernando Tena, revealed Dos Santos's departure from Tottenham is imminent, and Spain is a possible destination. Tena said: "He asked us if he could complete the transfer from Tottenham to another team. He has to go to sign papers, he has to go to get them sorted out.
"The most important thing is his mental state. We never had a doubt when he told us. We told him: 'Go. Do it.' He told us the name of the club. I can't say which club, but for us it is much better if he is relaxed, that he gets his contract sorted and that he comes back physically and mentally at his best level, content and knowing that he is going to play."

To be fair, a number of Liverpool fans on that thread have pointed out the flaws and inaccuracies of this fella's post.

That thread actually makes for fascinating reading because take the specifics out of it and they sound exactly like us!
 
Sorry mate but I dont think that is going to happen, besides his seemingly brick attitude I have seen nothing to suggest he will be a star, I shall be interested to see if I am wrong.

He has talent and a lot of it. I reckon he'll show it in Spain. And would be typical if so.

When I was watching Spain v Portugal I thought great football yes, tactically interesting yes, exciting no, I just dont think that players like Gio are suited to the prem.
