leffe186 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 FFS £9 Million Spurs squad is pretty thin now like with Bassong and Dawson away. I dunno. I'd like another kid in from somewhere as we haven't got any more coming through, but we have Kaboul, Vertonghen, Gallas and Caulker. Compares favourably to most others I think.

leffe186 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Why didn't Vertonghen play on Saturday btw? Easing him in apparently. The story is that he rested some players who had games midweek, and that's why VDV was on the bench too: http://sports.yahoo.com/news/spurs-fan-van-der-vaart-vertonghen-feature-belgium-181500130.html I suspect he'd like to give him a home debut too. AVB does seem pretty hot on details. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Becomes a problem when he plays against City. Paying a player who's playing for the opposition? Dodgy... Not really. As they can't exactly say play s*** or we won't pay you. Say for instance he misses a last minute penalty that hands City the title/cup. Then what? Questions will be asked. Why would the League allow for such a possibility? It's happened loads of times in the past and nobody has questioned it then, so why now? When has it happened in the past where a player misses a last minute penalty against a club that's paying half his wages to win them a trophy/3 pts/a place in the next round?

Ketsbaia Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 When Man City are rich, we give them Shay for peanuts. When QPR are rich, we give them Barton for free. Wheres that 'Guess who wins again' meme? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 To be frank this Adebayor deal may look disgusting, but at the end of the day it's no different from players demanding a liquidation fee to their former club when accepting a transfer to a club on less wages, which is something that happens all the time. Instead of being a lump sum, City is paying it in installments. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Thought you would find this amusing, Levante's DOF has admitted they are in talks to sign Obafemi Martins (although the deal with Kazan is "difficult" according to him). He should be a very good replacement for Kone, anyway. Wish him well. I have no idea in which form Martins is nowadays, but if he's retained that pace he would work beautifully with Levante's press and counter style.

Tbh Martins' pace is pretty useless on the counter as he just doesn't know how to use it, he'll hinder more counter attacks than he'll help and he'll squander more 1 on 1s than he'll convert. Set him on his left foot within about 60 yards of goal though and you're laughing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
