madras Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Hope he keeps his 88 squad number if he comes here. Is that his year of birth or does he have Buffon-eque right wing(not the position) tendancies? what's the script with that buffon story? never heard it, be a pity if i couldn't like the guy anymore Just remember hearing how he picked 88 as his squad number at Parma (i think it was) due to the H being the 8th letter of the alphabet and HH standing for Heil Hitler allegedly. That was the rumour anyhoo, i think he came out and denied it. and that would account for the pink top. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 anyone know if he is a good player? he has looked decent everytime i've seen him, which isn't many to be fair, seem to remember him scoring a screamer for Udinese live on 5 last season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Inler looked impressive in the Euros. Very Dynamic high energy sort from what I saw. Also very pro active and tried to make things happen for the team and initiate their attacks from his DM position. I remember him clearly because of how un-swiss he looked. Another player of Turkish origin, along with Derdiyok from what they said during the tournament. Would be a solid signing. The kind of DM Tottenham should be targetting so you know what that means right? Brace yourselves ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parky Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Is he any good? What role does he play in midfield? He's more box to box than all out DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Is he any good? What role does he play in midfield? He's more box to box than all out DM. Yeah, kind of agree with that actually. Had good defensive qualities but certainly didn't just sit back all the time. Showed a decent amount of drive getting forward when given an opportunity to do so, similar to the way Lassana Diarra does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Inler apparently just returned from a two week holiday after the Euros this week. If we are being linked with him now it means we might be getting in there early. This one might have something in it. Hope we wrap it up quickly, Butt was good last season but he should be more of a backup this year and this fella would make sure that is indeed the case.

SAK Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Gökhan Inler (Udinese & Switzerland) I have it from a good source* that Inler's representative met Wise in Switzerland in the last few days *not the bartender, or the oncle's secret lover's sister halfbrother's grandma... Inler looked a very good player at the Euro's and I'd be very happy if we signed him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Why are people afraid to reveal their so-called 'sources'? If the rest of us are to allow the comment any credibility whatsoever, then we need a source. Otherwise it's just not worth even posting. First rule of journalism, never reveals your source.

Guest Heneage Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Exactly. If you get told by a player "Off the record" somethings happening you never name them as they wont tell you next time. is it just me whos really excited at hthe investment in youth, bringing players on trial.

Always good to have youth players coming in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
