It just came back to me.
Half way through the transfer window that was January 2008 and after many rumours that we were chasing this guy, there was a small bit of tv footage of an interview with him.
I'm sure it was Downing and not his agent. He was saying that he welcomed the interest in him and was flattered that a top club like Spurs were in for him.
Unfortunately it didn't pan out, for one reason or another, but how does Downing feel now? Almost in limbo? Out on a limb with his team mates?
Is it unfinished business for Spurs as we allegedly still search for that elusive missing key to a Premiership title chasing squad?
I'd love him at spurs - he would provide natural balance and an endless supply of deep crosses for Berby (insert alternative lanky striker if you see fit). I hope we get him in the summer.
