    Spurs under Pochettino

    So now it looks inevitable that he's our new manager i feel it's time to embrace it and have a serious look at what our squad and playing style will look like under Poch. This article from a couple of weeks back gives some great insight, but i reckon as a group of fans we can add a fair amount...

    Theo Walcott

    Seeing as how the daily thread is rife with talk about Walcott, thought we should get a player thread going. It does seem that he has a rather excellent goal per shot and goal per game ratio this season and certainly fits the role of goal scoring wide man better than Lennon. Not sure where i...

    Poll: Which Tom should be our centre midfielder whilst Dembele is out?

    Just stolen this idea from sloth's keeper thread. Basically who should be playing instead of Dembele right now. I'm voting Carroll.

    Lloris, Vertonghen, Dembele, Sigurdsson, Dempsey, Adebayor

    Well done Levy (y) I honestly am shocked when i look at those players names and realise that's the business we've done this window. We also signed Bale and Walker up to new contracts - which is excellent news. Modric leaving was inevitable, so i'm not at all concerned by that. VDV...

    Michael Dawson

    Surely having been omitted from the squad he must be off? With the way the defense played on Saturday i can't see him fitting in very well. Looks like those who thought he was going to be made captain were way off the mark. Shame as i think he's a top bloke, but AVB seems to think he won't...

    Daniel Sturridge

    So JJ confirms we're aware of his wish to move to another club and feels he's missed out on England due to his situation at Chelsea. With the Chavs now bringing in Hulk and Hazard it looks very unlikely that he'll be in Chelsea's plans for next season. Personally i think he'd be a great...

    The Lack of Ekotto - is it all that bad?

    So i was really worried with Benny out that Rose would struggle at LB and although he's looked a bit shaky at times in the last two games he's done a decent enough job for us. However i actually think this has more to do with the type of LB Rose has been in contrast to Ekotto. As we all know...

    '91 Cup Final team - signed ball - for sale with 50% donated to SC

    Ok so i've been sitting on this for a long while now, in fact over 20 years. It is a spurs official ball (size 5) signed by the '91 FA cup winning team. The ball is a leather hand stitched ball and i'm told by the person who gave it to me over 20 years ago that it was signed by the team...

    2011/2012 Season - How we line up!

    Okay so there's a lot of negativity on this board, and include myself in some of that. However with the premier league season about to kick off this weekend i thought i'd take a look at where we are compared with the other teams directly around us. I'm only looking at last seasons top 6...

    Van der Vaart - I'm staying

    Full story. Great news surely! And Van der Vaart insists he is more than happy to remain at White Hart Lane. "We always want to play in Europe. It is good to have the experience from the Europa League and it would be a nice title to win," he told The Sun. "I like to be playing every...

    Gervinho moves to Arsenal

    Source: Daily Mail "David Moyes took a whistle stop tour to France on Saturday night to check on Lille's £10million-rated striker Gervinho. The Everton manager is desperate to bolster his strikeforce during the summer and has already put plans in place to move for Shane Long, should...

    One good reason???

    Can anyone give me one good reason why any of our strikers should be kept in the summer. I honestly can't think of one. People say "but we'll never get a top striker unless we pay high wages" - i don't think we need a top striker, right now a mediocre striker would be a big improvement on our...

    Harry to go in summer?

    OK, so the title is a bit dramatic, and personally i really hope he stays. But if we end up 6th or 7th at the end of the season, on the back of what we had to build from last summer, then surely this must be seen as failure on Harry's part. For once i think DL had money to spend if we needed...

    Do our footballers count as fixed assets?

    One for the finance guys who look through our accounts in detail: Do we count our footballers as fixed assets in the clubs accounts? Particularly when it comes to depreciation? i.e. when we buy a player do we assign a depreciation figure to that player over a set number of years (how many?) so...

    Benzema linked? Do we need him?

    See that we're being linked with a loan move for Benzema in Jan and was wondering whether people on here feel we need a player of his caliber or not. For me it's clear cut that a top striker would almost certainly make us the most dangerous attacking team in the premier league right now...
