This is exactly my thoughts, but I have a feeling (or at least hope) its been taken out of context

 

[mjc23]

Kyle Naughton too.

In all honesty it looks like Defoe's head has been photo shopped on too. Would also like to know for the default photo who it actually was taken of as the guy seems to have a mohawk?

It's Dawson's body.

I see AC Milan have sold Ibrahimovic and Silva to PSG - are they cashing in their chips before the FFP? Weakest squad as far as I can remember

He's not being a knob at all. Read the whole article on the kyle Walker thread..

They're fudging brick now.

Even Cassano has stated that he wants out and he'd probably benefit from the Ibrahimovic departure. They'll probably get Dzeko to replace Ibra but fudge me what a step down.

i read the whole article, and that comment about giving the manager a chance is out of order. The chairman makes the decision about the manager, not the players. He says there are no egos at Spurs, but then goes and says something like that???

 

[indianspur]

if Ferguson had become our manager i can guarantee Walker would not have said anything about giving the manager a chance

Because he's the best club manager in the last 120 years perhaps?

they can use the 51 mill to buy Falcao

Falcao would cost around 40m Euro, btw

its not right that Walker seems to be suggesting that the new manager is in effect on trial...

seriously, what gives him the right. He is a kid

 

[indianspur]

really, less than what A Madrid paid for him?

Can you not see that you're taking it totally out of context after reading the full article??

He has very clearly been asked if the Spurs players are going to give AVB a chance, and he's said yes why wouldn't they. End of story.
