Nice. Will be a good buy for Spurs. Certainly bring them something different to what they have. To be fair for the ludicrous money they got for Carrick, they can feel justified on blowing it on someone that will be alot more use to them.

If Roeder was still in charge we would be begging them for Diarra on loan again.

Bugger sounds like a cracking game, cant bloody watch it in Canada.

People being ignorantly harsh on Darren Bent here. He is far from a one season wonder. Scored alot of goals for a poor Charlton side as a lone striker, is still relatively young and will only get better. Granted not worth much more than 9m really, but whilst there are suckers willing to give up their money...

Competition might just trigger the fat troll into doing something, its something he has needed since he got here. Carr has always been able to walk back into the team when he was back from injury vacation. Basically because he had no competition for RB. Might be too late for him now, but if we had bought lucas neill or another RB a couple of years ago I think we would have seen the best out of Carr. Like Baba its too easy for them to coast along at the minute.

bit of a shame, but far from a disaster. Will be a good move for him and a logical one. Will be interesting to see which way we go now!

Is Saviola really only 25? madness!

decent player, but not the best we can do. Excellent deal on a free, but there are better defenders out there. If we get him brilliant, but i wont cry into my cornflakes that long if he signs for chelsea. We want players hungry to play for us.

puts his hand up, over here . Gadgy? One of those POMie words I don't understand, I'll have to ask the Mrs. I never said he was too good for the toon, there was strong rumours that he was going to Ac Milan. The Turkish media have dunnit again. Anyway I'm very dissapointed for him I would've stayed with Fener instead and have a chance to compete in the CL. But if he has a standout season then the big fish will come out and play. He has the pace and lungs for the epl just his technique is a let down otherwise who knows will be intresting to see. Will certainly be interesting to see how he adapts. With Downing they are unlikely to play him on the Left Wing.

Seems strange Allardyce hasnt told him either way. Unless Luques father is telling porkie pies! Wouldnt be that suprised to see him stay until at least January, we need cover for Duff, so it will be Luque and N'Zog for that left side as it stands. But more than likely he might just be another bit of dead wood for Big Sam to throw on the fire.

well he has been playing on the left wing for alot of those games.

If he had already signed for us, i doubt anyone would give a toss.

probably stems from their boss asking them where there scoop for tmrw's paper is two hours before it goes to press.. just page fillers, if it was in anyway important you think someone would be checking to make sure they didnt look like tits.

Where is that turkish gadgy that was convinced he was signing for Inter, and Newcastle wouldnt even come into his thinking? Dissapointing we havent wanted to take a punt on him, but Giuly would probably be a better bet, plus he is good on either wing, whilst Tuncay is more left sided, good signing for Boro though, will be interesting to see how he does. That said we might not be interested in getting anyone for those positions.

So Baines is 5"8 and will cost £5m Shorey is 5"9 and will cost £5m And we arent interested in Baines because he will cost too much and is too short?? Bloody tabloids

lost in translation

If he is truly after Giuly it might explain a few things.

Done and dusted for Boro apparently.

Over the shock and into the denial stage I see... http://www.teamtalk.com/football/story/0,16368,1780_2285181,00.html

Downing has a sister? or just puts a wig on?

Robinson's w***. Would love Baines though. Best English player on the field tonight, btw. Cool, ive seen next to nothing of him this season, but saw we have been linked to him here and there over the past couple of months.

Who is he trying to convince with this statement, looks more like himself than anything else. If the smogs sell Yakubu to pompey they will be in trouble next season, no doubt. That said if they manage to snare Tuncay and Castelen they wont have done to bad. Actually think the scum might stay up this time, although there are plenty of other sides that will struggle next season, Wigan, Reading, Fulham, Derby, birmingham, Man City. Will be an interesting year.

Would anyone take Paul Robinson as his replacement. Provided we signed Baines as first choice?

dont think he would be a bad singing, like Tuncay will only enhance the squad for little outlay. Tough on the likes of Milner and N'Zog though.

Agree with Gazza ladra, although id rather see them both gone, id sooner see Carr out on his ear than baba. They both go through phases (when the do actually manage to stay fit for a couple of games) of playing steadily enough to make you think they arent that bad, could be decent back up. But then they fall foul of another "injury". Carr is just more detestable for me. But getting one of them out is a start, hopefully Carr will follow.
