Ins and Out in summer transfer

[lifeof...]

With All the ITK's info, the media hype blast, it got me thinking what do i think, based on my "take everything into count and arrive at answer" and what i think the power that be would
do...The below, in some cases,doesn't Necessary reflect my own desires of what i would like to happen, though in some cases it does. But what i think is most likely.....




Paul Robinson 90% Going If a deemed N01 is signed
Radek Cerny Going 100% NR

Gareth Bale 100% Staying basically new signing
Pascal Chimbonda 80% Going I feel we will take the right offer
Michael Dawson 50/50 Will depend on offers
Ledley King Depends on medical report, If deemed likely to always be injured could well sell on medical problem, IF not 100% stay
Alan Hutton 100% staying basically new signing
Lee Young-Pyo 90% going, Reasonable offer will make it 100%
Benoit A-Ekotto 90% staying, Still a Hopeful potential
Ricardo Rocha 100% gone NR
Dorian Dervite 90% staying, Still a Hopeful potential
Jonathan Woodgate 100% staying Basically new signing
Chris Gunter 100% staying Basically new signing
Younes Kaboul 80% staying Press misquotes not withstanding
Steed Malbranque 100% staying, players like him are good to keep
Kevin-Prince Boateng 60-40 Staying, (ok im not sure)
Jamie O'Hara 50-50 Staying, think we would listen offers
Adel Taarabt 90% staying Think the staff will think If we can get him right then….star is born……lets give it six months
Tom Huddlestone 90% staying, Depends on signings and offers made
Aaron Lennon 90% staying, Depends on signings and offers made
Didier Zokora 100% staying,
Teemu Tainio 80% staying, not a bad player to have, and don’t expect much in the way of reasonable offers
Jermaine Jenas 95% staying, We wouldn’t sell him cheaply others won’t offer that much
Robbie Keane 99% staying, this may change by Jan, depends on summer signings
Darren Bent 100% either way, depends on signings and Berbs
Dimitar Berbatov 85% staying, don’t think people will pay what we demand, Don’t think Berb will make a big problem, Agent may
Anthony Gardner 100% gone, IF can pass a medical
Danny Murphy 100% gone for free
Paul Stalteri 99% mass injuries of our squad, may keep him



Thoughts...i agree some would come under the heading "not shit sherlock"

Lifeof... have you had a few :beer:

:grin:

But in answer to your question pretty much agree with your list.

I think BAE will be sold (rumours are rife) as well as Salty.

Also think Kaboul will be on his way - if he was 'misquoted' then that's a pretty extensive misquote.

Funnily enough, I actually think Berbs will stay, judging from what I've read on another ITK thread. I don't think any club will bid the £30 million plus asking price for him.

And as for the man himself, I think he's quite content to stay at The Lane. Afterall, this talk of him leaving has all come from his agent, and fair play to his agent, he's just doing his job!

 

[miles_64]

Do we need another transfer thread?

 

[northampton_yid]

I think Berba will wait and see what other signings are made before he decides. The signing of Modric (along with 3 or 4 more) must have made him think there could be a good chance we will be challenging the top 4 next year. I think u are right with the majority of your predictions, my only change would be Dawson wont be going anywhere. I have it on good authority he wont be going anywhere.

 

[hellava_tough]

Do we need another transfer thread?

Yes.


Yes we do.

 

[Pedro]

why is Danny Murphy even on that list? He went ages ago.

other than that i would say your list is a about right as a summary of rumours etc, however its a bit of a waste of time based on very little fact which is impossible to quantify.

Oh and TT wont be here next season. im fairly sure his contract is up in the summer.

 

[sim0n]

Lee, Stalteri, Cerny, Gardner, and Ghaly (form not withstanding) are gone.

If Spurs sign a #1 keeper, then Robbo goes... looks likely.

BAE I've not read anything specific, but I don't see that he's got much of a future at WHL after Bale arrived. Strangely, I think Rocha will stay - no reason.

I want to remain optimistic on Kaboul - I belive he may have a brighter future in midfield as well, but it appears to be a bigger rift than just some misquotes...

Dawson has made his mistakes, but they're not due to a lack of effort.

Midfield - KPB doesn't seem to fit, may be gone. I hope Tanio stays, but I don't see that the current management has much use for him - IMO he's a battler and is willing to play any position to help the team. I hope Taraabt stays, but he's looking for playing time and WHL is not looking to be opening that door for him.

If Berbatov leaves, then none of this matters as it would be a massive step backwards. I'm not saying the team would never win another game, but without Berbatov we go back to not beating the top teams,... ever. There are members who like to post statistics. I'd like to see Spurs record against @RSE, chelsea, manUre, and L'pool since he's arrived. Compare that to the 4-5 years previous to his arrival. I think we can all remember back that far :razz:

One addition and some differences of opinion below:

Ben Alnwick 50% going
Benoit A-Ekotto 50% going, depends on passing a medical
Younes Kaboul 100% going the quotes were accurate
Steed Malbranque 90% staying, players like him are good to keep, but we would listen to offers
Kevin-Prince Boateng 80% going, (I'm reasonably sure)
Jamie O'Hara 100% Staying, he is a Ramos discovery
Adel Taarabt 50% going, he is losing patience with the club and the club are losing patience with him
Tom Huddlestone 80% staying, Depends on signings and offers made
Aaron Lennon 50% staying, Depends on signings and offers made
Teemu Tainio 80% going, not in Ramos' plans
Jermaine Jenas 80% staying, We wouldn’t sell him cheaply but others might be prepared to pay
Robbie Keane 75% staying, depends on offers and summer signings
Darren Bent 75% going, must be completely pissed of by now and if he was in Ramos' plans he would be getting more match time
Dimitar Berbatov 75% going, think the poor run in will have decided him

 

[Kyras]

I really hope we keep hold of Kaboul, Lennon and Huddlestone; all three are young men who have had a hell of a lot of first team footy very early in their careers, all with huge potential, and I feel, given the right treatment, will come good. All have had a lot of criticism (a lot uncalled for) and Kaboul has even been dropped completely, they're still young and will be a lot better in a couple of years, especially as they all have obvious things to work on

i.e. Lennon's final ball, Huddlestone's movement, and Kaboul's discipline - all attributes which can be worked on. Yes, even Hudd's movement.

Hmm. I could say the same about our record since we signed Zokora or Chimbonda.
Not saying that Berbs hasn't been great for us, but his arrival did not trigger our total improvement, it coincided with it. He was a big part of it, but not all of it!

I could say, look at our record since Gilberto arrived - we won a trophy in less than 6 months!
Sorry if I'm being flippant!

 

[stemark44]

I pretty much agree with Eddiebailey but I would also add Rocha,Gardner,Lee and Chimbonda to his list of players going!

C'mon MJ. Are you honestly saying that zokora, chimbonda, and gilberto have a greater impact on Spurs in their time than Berbatov? A bit flippant to be sure. :razz:

I don't want to test your theory and let Berbatov go to find out... I'd still like to see the stats first

 

[Locotoro]

to be fair i think mj has a point. had we made absolutely no signings in the last 5 years except berb we would still be watching rohan ricketts playing on the wing and kasey keller in goal :-s

okay, do you think we'll finish top 5 next season without him?

 

[karennina]

I can't quite be botherd to do all of them but:

Stalteri - There doesn't seem to be any reason for him to be at the club today. Maybe if Chimbo goes there would be a reason, but would he want another season of understudying at his age? No idea...​

​

The Prince - 80% staying - he's just about hit his target of games played this season, wants to settle down somewhere both for his family and to prove to himself that he's got the staying power, and ramos seems prepared to give him a crack of the whip.​

O'Hara - 100% staying - he seriously wants to stay, Ramos likes him, there's no real reason for him to go, and I can't see the board raising any objections, especially to an academy boy getting a chance​

Thudd - 90% staying - he isdeveloping, getting a good number of games at a good level for him, and I can't see why a change would do him good or the club would want to not give him a chance. Players with his qualities are hard to find.
​

JJ - 95% staying - the club definitely don't want to sell him, our best midfielder, on football grounds, and I aree it's highly unlikely enough money would be offered to change their minds. He's had a good season and I think he'll want to build on this, seeing Modric very much as a challenge and a teamate rather than a reason to bail. And bail where?​

honestly? imo, berba changed tottenham and stimulated the new revolution. i'd hate to imagine life without him.

he's a great assest; publicly, financially, and ability.

our only real star imo.:bowdown:

 

[Locotoro]

okay, do you think we'll finish top 5 next season without him?

I think we will finish in the same place whether we have him or not.

If he is sold a replacement will be bought.

If he stays we wont need a replacement
