    Saido Berahino

    In fairness, you're the one who constantly talks about our "zero net spend policy". By your own logic, therefore, isn't it possible that Levy was waiting for the Townsend deal to be agreed before making a bid for Berahino?

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Palace***

    I actually think he's one of the better managers in the PL. Yeah, he can be a bit of a tosser at times (like 95% of managers who exaggerate every fault in the opposition while somehow failing to notice a single foul committed by their own team) but compared to some of them he actually comes...

    Jan Vertonghen

    If Vertonghen is out for 12 weeks (big IF) then we need to be planning for the rest of the season without him. An additional tweak or a slower than average recovery can easily turn 12 weeks into 15 (and that's the end of the season). On top of that, Pochettino appears to like bringing players...

    Dele Alli

    I suspect the guy works for BT Sport.

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    I can't see Pochettino wanting to leave right now. What's happening at our club - as I've said before - makes it one of the best places to be in football at this point in history. That said, in theory, Chelsea could make Pochettino a financial offer he couldn't refuse... I love the guy and I...

    Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

    I'm not an admin here (and obviously scara can post whatever he likes on his own website!) but any chance this discussion could continue on the 'Politics' thread in Random? That's what it's there for after all - and old lefties like me won't have to either seethe in silence or get involved and...

    Transfer Rumour Thread

    Apparently Pardew understands Adebayor... the striker's contract only runs until the end of this season. So his form between now and May will influence the kind of contract he gets next season. And we all know what a great player he can be in those circumstances. We don't play Palace again this...

    Saido Berahino

    According to several papers (none of which are exactly what I'd call reliable sources, mind) we're lodging another bid for Berahino in the next day or two... the Mail says £17m, the Standard says £18m. We shall see.

    Adebayor redemption possibilities?

    Evening Standard (I know!) are reporting that Adebayor to Palace is a done deal. Hopefully that means we'll no longer be paying him (or at least, if we are, it'll be a greatly reduced amount). I imagine he'll score lots of goals for Pardew given that - presumably - he'll be playing for his next...

    Jan Vertonghen

    I'm with parklane1 on this. Wimmer looks solid and I think he'll do a fine job filling in for Vertonghen. But our centre-backs have arguably been the most solid pairing in the league this season (and the most solid pairing we've had at Spurs for a long long time). In that context Vertonghen's...

    Jan Vertonghen

    Yep. I do understand suspensions for red cards (even retrospective ones). It's all about deterrence and prevention. But there is a problem with it. Wickham - for example - committed the offence against a Spurs player. It wasn't spotted and he could even have gone on to score against us in that...

    Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

    I'm not sure it's massively important where we play our transitional season (within reason obviously). But part of me would find it very funny if West Ham were forced to ground share with us for a year against their wishes. It would be the perfect illustration of their lack of ownership and...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Palace***

    Looks like Wickham has been charged by the FA and will be banned for 3 games if found guilty of violent conduct. Source.

    Leandro Damiao

    You're most likely right of course. But it's worth pointing out that there's no way to know how a player might have progressed if he'd joined a different club at a certain point. Spurs might have been the perfect fit for him and his career could have taken a completely different path if he'd...

    Saido Berahino

    I very much doubt a tribunal will award anything close to £10m for Berahino if his next 18 months are anything like the last 6. Every day he remains at that club and fails to be an automatic starter, his value diminishes. He could have a great 18 months for West Brom of course; but realistically...

    In my defence, I'd been working 20 straight hours when I posted that. I could hardly see straight - let alone think straight!

    I think you meant "worst" not "worse". And "board" not "bored". Just sayin' ;)

    LMS 15/16 - Champion: jts1882

    Hopefully I won't be Last Man Standing in this round. Because I'm choosing Arsenal this week. And yes, I've bought the bleach and the wire-brush.

    Nacer Chadli

    Not comparing them as players, just talking about this specific goal... but when Chadli scored against Palace, was anyone else reminded of Gareth Bale? Personally I thought it was a very Bale-like goal.

    Moussa Dembele

    If this signing comes off, I'm looking forward to the "Two Mous(s)a Dembeles... there's only two Mous(s)a Dembeles!" song Predictable? Of course. Will I still laugh? Of course.
