#Montpellier president Louis #Nicollin has confirmed the sale of Benjamin #Stambouli to #Spurs. Five-year deal signed. #THFC

Where's the stampouli?

 

[Mr Pink]

Will make a profit in a year or two when we sell.

This is what worries me. So many times...Holtby, Siggy, list is endless.

That's the way Levy plays, always has been, always will be. Hopefully, one day, he'll place his trust and money in a manager and let him bring in who he believes we need

Yeah, hope this guy is actually the business and not just another in a long line of conveyer belt players. I hope we haven't bought him just because we couldn't get Schneiderlin, otherwise I'd have preferred to keep what we have. I hope he can bring something to the team that we don't have.

How exciting :/

Don't think there will be too many better bargains going around the EPL than #Stambouli for €6m. Steal. #THFC #GoalTZ

He's a French football writer for Goal.

Welcome Benjamin!

Transfer deadline day is so fun.

Now trying to find out everything and anything about Benji, never even heard about him until 10 min ago.

Unfortunately it's the way we have to operate, at least until the new stadiums built.

"You could be critical and suggest that he needs to add more of a killer instinct in front of goal, whether that is to score himself or provide more assists (he has only scored three goals and provided five assists in 115 league matches with Montpellier)"

Sounds EXACTLY like something we need, another midfielder that is static and hardworking but provides no input going forward, we certainly don't lack input going forward whatsoever do we....

@Stoof it's stamping time.

 

[markiespurs]

Damn Stoof, never around when you need him.

Having seen him, i'm delighted enough for all of us. Even if he's useless, boy, is he going to be decorative. *dreamy sigh*

Welcome Benji!
