ITK - Keane/Berbatov/Other Stuff

[yiddobrett]

Just got off the phone with someone who's very high up in the club. I questioned about Keane because of the rumours circulating today from another ITK. Basically he's said that they're getting slightly annoyed with Keane because he's getting annoyed that he's not been finishing games and if he carries on they're open to offers. He also said it's more likely that Berbatov will stay and Keane leave, rather than the expected other way around. He also said that we're planning on a huge signing up front. I asked if it was David Villa and my contact just laughed. Did he think I was dreaming or was he hiding something?



Take it as you will. I know how well regarded my contact is in the club but even I can't see Keane leaving. But who knows, it's a funny old game.

hi yb - interesting stuff, as I posted earlier in the McGeady thread it wouldn't amaze me if Keane left - and I precisely mentioned JR's fondness for subbing RK being an indicator that maybe JR doesn't rate RK as highly as many Spurs fans do

Thanks Yiddobrett,

I so do love this time of year!

The soap opera, the speculation and rumour are far better than football!

 

[Stono]

I don't believe you.

Cheers YB. Have to say I agree with you that I can't see Keano leaving but at the same time if Berba ends up staying AND we sign someone else quality upfront would he sit on the bench? I'm not so sure.

Personally I still think our striker lineup next season is going to be Keane and Bent + 2. I hope Berbs is still here but all these links with big name strikers suggests to me that he's off and we're looking for a replacement.

As ever though...who knows?!

Please both of you if you can't say anything constructive don't say anything at all.

Cheers YB. Is this the same person who gave you the info about Ben Foster? Does this make you ITK? We have another ITK?! Goat and Brett, like an ITK duo.

just cant see keane leaving.but.........

I don't believe you.

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to agree.


There is absolutely nothing there that we don't already know/we haven't already heard about. The way that you say they're very high in the club, yet the only information that you could get from them is pretty much what we've been hearing day-in, day-out.

 

[fazza]

So we could end up with a strike partnership of Berbatov/Eto'o Berbatov/Villa with Modric perhaps just behind them.

 

[Mackabarrel]

Imagine if all this Berba nonsense was the smoke and mirrors and we offload keane to the tune of 25m... and then get in Etoo and Villa too...

*sneaks of to the bathroom*

 

[nickspurs]

I'd be both amazed and terribly sad if Keane left. I hope there's nothing in it.

I'm not sure who'd pay us enough to make it worthwhile to be honest... He's a 20+ a season goal scorer so wouldn't be cheap.

No, this is a completely different source entirely. This source is far higher up in Spurs, very, very high indeed. I've had information before from other cources, just snippets, and not always Spurs. For example, I told everyone on here Kallstromm was signing for Lyon a month before he did when we were linked with him, plus I said that Erik Edman would be signing for Wigan six months before he did (I still love that goal).

Personally, I think Berba and Keano will both be at Spurs next season, but we'll just have to wait and see, won't we.

Daniel Levy himself :shrug:

 

[hughy]

I'm thinking maybe he's speaking to Berbatov, Keano and Villa in person. That's very high up.

 

[Dougal]

I'm guessing it's the floodlight operator. Now that's very high up.
