David Villa signs for Atletico Madrid

[AssaTM]

Would love to hear a bit more on this on how close it may be, if we get Paulinho and Villa in early then I think fans will be a lot more patient for other targets

Agreed, but I doubt the club are too bothered about how the fans feel about transfers...unless I imagined Frazier Campbell in a Spurs shirt?

We don't take kindly to you's folk round these parts!

But in all seriousness, there's more chance of Rooney moving to Arsenal than Spurs fans patiently awaiting new players.

Haha maybe not but just speaking as a fan, i'll be much more patient with other transfers and less antsy if we already have Paulinho and Villa secured as we'd already be stronger than last season, not all transfers will be as smooth as the Paulinho one this summer unfortunately

Me too, but after losing VDV and replacing him with...well...nobody, I won't be able to rule out anything until the window closes.

sort of klinsman esQ !!

Exactly what I've been saying, klinsmann was a year older too I think

 

[Graysonti]

Jurgen 29 1st time, 33 2nd time.

has Villa been reported saying anything about his potential move to us?

I appreciate it's close, just wondering if he's commented on it at all. The most I've heard is the ITK saying his advisors loved the training ground.

How did he rate our sick bay?

Almost certain he hasn't said anything. It's quite refreshing actually in these days of footballers constantly whoring themselves around in public for the next big contract - shows the man has class (on the condition he joins us of course, otherwise consider previous comment null and void).

It has been strange that a player as huge as him hasn't been approached and questioned yet...

Barcelona could make an offer of 25M plus David Villa for Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney (27). [sport]

Player swap deals are bullshit media stories about 95% of the time.

I hope we wrap this up soon, with all the positive vibes we've had losing out now would be hard to take.

Think United would prefer Thiago plus cash rather than Villa.

Think United would prefer Thiago plus cash rather than Villa.

So that would value Rooney at about 35 million. United wouldnt bite at that level, so its not a runner. would like us to get this deal signed sealed and delivered though.

Yep, he's the player I want us to sign above all else this summer, its a no brainer given the price and how badly we need this type of quality, could really be the missing piece in our team, but the longer it goes on the more worried im getting, typical Spurs fan perspective I guess (suppose its only July 4th lol ).

I would never dare to doubt any ITK information, I have to say it's very odd that (far as I'm aware) Villa has not uttered a single word about Tottenham Hotspur, or his proposed move to London N17. In this day and age of persistent speculation when everyone and his mother has an opinion on everything, and players have microphones shoved up their hooters around the clock, and journalists have free license to write absolute bollocks about who's going where and who wants to sign who...nothing from Snr. Villa. I'm just sayin...
