Tottenham 2011/12

[delfino_1936]

Gyan is a very good player and would be a fantastic signing for a team looking to win it's 3rd 2nd tier title.....he's way better than the strikers you have at the moment, honestly!

Ah some honesty slapped together with being a twat

You and I are going to have a good season together I think

I agree, good striker and possibly better than what we got.

Well done Yids, didn't take you long to suss Delfino out. Funny thing is, after Van Pansy, they've got the mighty Bendtner and Chamakh and the disinterested Arshavin. No great surprise they haven't won anything in living memory

hahaha good lads! loving this already

ummm for me Chamakh is a gun and proved that in the first half of last season....a proven scorer in UCL football

Gervinho to come in lets hope!

To be honest, i'd love to sign Gyan if we haven't signed Gervinho in 2 wks!

[Hawkseys Double]

I have not seen much of Gyan, so can someone tell me what his strengths/weaknesses are?

[Derek]

He is pretty quick, Skillful and quite clinical in front of goal (most times), i personally dont think that he is good enough for Arsenal or Spurs. Would be one of those players who arrives scores a few early goals and will slowly work his way to the bench. I think mid table club is where he belongs.

Aye I thought that might be the case also. Still, I guess he would be better than one or two on our bench currently.

Ceballos completes move
11 July 2011

ShareWe are delighted to announce the signing of Cristian Ceballos.

Ceballos, 18, spent almost seven years with Barcelona after joining them when he was 11 and can operate as an attacking midfielder or a forward.

Technical co-ordinator Tim Sherwood said: "Cristian trained hard and showed some real quality when he originally spent time here towards the end of last season and was even involved in some of the First Team training.

"There was other interest in him too. He needs to be patient and if he can fulfil his potential we believe he can play at the top level."

Anyone know what this guys like?

[Hawkseys Double]

I've not heard of him. It's front page so I gather he is hot prospect.

Laugh all you want, but the same thing happens on your front page

[OldRedback]

I have not seen much of Gyan, so can someone tell me what his strengths/weaknesses are?

His strengths are that he is Ghanain which means he is from the same country as Michael Essien who is a very good player.

His main weakness seems to be when he gets put on a football field.

Assuming the average human lifespan to be approx. 75 years (living memory), I have underlined titles won since 1936 for both Clubs.
Thank God for 2008...otherwise Spurs supporters would have needed the memory of an elephant

Hardly the news of the year since I've never heard of him either, but I suppose you could say the same of Fabregas when he went to Arsenal.

I hope he turns out like Fabregas and not Dos Santos

If true Levy needs to pull his f##k##g head in before he dismantles our club

I would say there is not much truth in the article, i just thought I'd stir the pot. But if there was any truth id be pissed if i was Dawson too.

maybe, however today he was claimed to be an "untouchable" at White Hart Lane, by Levy.

[Nice One Cyril]

It's being reported (by the Daily Mail) that Luka has handed in a transfer request. Will be interesting to see how far Levy will push this one as I can't see Spurs letting him go for less than £35 million.

Same situation as alot of clubs these days. However, NOBODY is untouchable, if you have the right money you will get your man.

Then this happens and the club are torn both ways.....Disgruntled player v $$$$$$$$$$$$

[Derek]

They have to let Modric go, surely? I know players shouldnt be allowed all the power and so on, but take the money and run. He obviously isnt happy and the relationship between him and Levy is obviously not great, turn a miserable player who wants out into $$$$$$

[Hawkseys Double]

Modric is in South Africa for the training camp.
