Robbo

Robbo - I think even if the lotto winner cnuts bring a bucket-load of pessos - he seems to be keen on regular football and steady development. Hence his Barcelona, Real Madrid comments. Not City nor Chelsea can guarantee him that. Utd have 3 top wingers fighting for 2 spots at best. Arsenal couldn't afford that nor do they have the space for him in their young-guns-cnuts team
The boy wants to grow and learn as a player from the likes of van der Vaart, Modric, Ade, Bale, etc. - not some cloggers and human cloning experiments up north
He's ours, haters.
I'll take your optimism!
And really, who wouldn't choose up in front of Chelski, Arsenal and Liverpool right now - we certainly are the most exciting prospects, with a lot of young, developing talents, plus we play attractive football. We also look fairly certain (knock on wood) to offer CL football next year.
I don't know much about the lad, but if he is regarded as one of the top prospects in Europe, it can be a big statement.
Being a Spurs fan, Im familiar with disappointment, so until its official I won't allow myself to get carried away!
