[Maurice Picarda]

The fixture list will be added when released.

In the meantime: we can speculate here about Berby's Evil Agent, and draw up ludicrous formations to accomodate Ronaldinho, and say fiercely that "only Woody and Keane are safe". After a while, there will be wafer and prem games to discuss.

We only need 3 or 4 players to break into the big three. Next year and we'll be the force in London.

<repeat, every season, ad nauseum>

Nah.... Spurs will always be a Bottom 16 team.

 

[London_Calling]

Berbatov's agent really is amusingly predictable - the pair of them go into 'good cop, bad cop' mode before every single window, the whole pattern inevitably initiated by an interview in the Daily Bulgarian Two-Bob Tow Rag.

Anyway, yes lets try and build some enthusiam by thinking about how to build domestically on a one-season trophy now the managerial issue is settled, and how far we might progress in Europe next year.

 

[Final]

I'm not going to get excited about yet another false dawn.

I mean it this time. srsly.

 

[bigbry]

only Woody and Keane are safe

The word in the Midlands is that Keanes going to the Villa

Is it now. Sunderland's loss is their gain.

 

[tommers]

Same old tottenham. Premature, as always.

 

[brixtonvilla]

This season has been over for some weeks. Amazed they've held fire this long tbh...

 

[London_Calling]

The word in the Midlands is that Keanes going to the Villa

In summer windows, I thought this rumour came after the Everton done deal and before a variety of player X or Y or Z plus cash, seen-in-the-local-estate-agents certainties.


To everyone else - count the silverware folks, then count yours.

 

[Balbi]

This thread is two months late

 

[Maurice Picarda]

The word in the North-East, though, is that Robinson is going to Boro. Shame: I can still imagine him returning to the form he had from 2004-2006, and having Kaboul and Dawson in front of him hasn't given him much of an opportunity to shine.

 

[DRINK?]

I reckon spurs will spend about 40 mil.... all their fans will get all excited about champions league etc...loads of expectation until the first game of the season when they get beat 1-0 at home to Wigan or the like.....bit like Liverpool but with even less reason for optimism

 

[Maurice Picarda]

And it starts! £15m on Modric, the highly-rated Croatian from Dinamo Zagreb. Of whom, I have to admit, I only heard this morning. Central or left midfielder, so it's not clear whether he'd displace Steed or Jenas.

 

[London_Calling]

The phrases I was most hoping to hear were 'defensive midfielder' and 'Zokora in a part-exchange deal'. There are others . . .

 

[chieftain]

Luka Modric is a good player, he helped destroy England twice with Croatia... he's a very good start to the summer spending

 

[Maurice Picarda]

Apparently we're only buying at this level, so no more than three additional signings. Which makes sense; we hardly need additional squad players.

never to early for this kind of rubbish though... http://www.soccervoice.com/n080435.htm

 

[Maurice Picarda]

Kaboul's off, then.

Ramos is a nerd and not inspirational like the Jolly Giant was, etc, etc.

 

[chieftain]

Crockery sale at the Emirates on Saturday, 60,000 MUGs but no cups!!

boom boom!

 

[chieftain]

See you next Season...

 

[chieftain]

quietly loving our sigings so far Spurs fans... Ramos tackles the long standing problems in both midfield and between the stick. NICE

 

[El Sueno]

Just heard Gomez in from PSV, could we finally be getting a safe pair of hands in goal?

 

[mattie]

Keane off to Liverpool?

http://www.football365.com/story/0,17033,8652_3761027,00.html

Crouchy and Bent could actually work quite well.

eta: oopsy, this has a thread all of its own.

 

[chieftain]

COULD BE NICE: http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12874_3801181,00.html

 

[chieftain]

who believes the Evil Sub-Standard and the Hate Mail about Berba then... £28m to ManUre

Gutted but wish him well if its true

One last thought... KERRRRRR-CHING!

[chieftain]

where's your lot Tommers, Yarmouth?

 

[tommers]

where's your lot Tommers, Yarmouth?

Chadwell Heath I reckon, but we're jetting off on a glamorous North American tour soon!

Do you think Ramos just wanted to see his mum? "where shall we go for pre-season training boss?"

"um... spain?"
