Must say theres a few reports circulating around the spanish sites over the news of us about to conclude the deal. I think there all the same content as the one posted earlier but nethertheless its better then bad news.

Looking good. Really hope we hear something soon.

Anything respectable?

Does anyone else think Soldado is a bit like a VDV who is big and strong enough to play striker? Or am I just unable to get over my VDV mancrush?

"@record_mexico: Valencia y Tottenham reanudan negociaciones por los servicios del delantero español Roberto Soldado "

Almost 400k followers ;)

Twitter or no twitter i think were closing in on the spanish heart throb.

Ha ha. It is all over the Spanish media sources now but all originating from the EFE source. Hopefully there will be a few more details after the game. I am watching it but don't understand a word of the commentary. Not entirely relevant (sorry A and C) but I would take Banega in a heartbeat. Lets get a double deal sorted! I will save my love for Banega for a different thread

Why do we always believe these positive press reports but then say the ones we don't like the sound of are wind-ups/not worth the computer they're written on . . . o_O

Well done mate. You must get lots of fibre
But on topic.

Did someone post something along the lines that Soldado had said he didn't want to train? and if so was that itk or newspaper clippings?

It's got to the point that even when the ITK's do post they're being questioned like mad or completely dismissed now, the problem is I wouldnt know what the solution to solve that would be other than a dose of maturity/sensibleness but I think that is beyond the discussion of Soldado at this point haha

Very different type if player in my opinion. The share two traits though. Soldado is an intelligent footballer, and shares the ability to pop up in the right place at the right time.

If I was to compare him with one of our former players though it would be Klinsmann.

Because the positve stories - in this case - add uo with all the other indications surrounding this move


(but i get the point you are making and it generally applies here )

We'd possibly have 50 goals + in our front 3 if we sign this guy. Deadly.

Soldado 20
Bale 20
chadli 10
add in 30 combined from Ade/Defoe (whoever stays), Dempsey, Gylfi, lennon + super jan.
Paulinho to get a few as well..

Thats quite a few goals in this team.

fuck me I'm getting a hard on

It will be nice to see more activity in the box. I'd bet some money Soldado will draw a pen or two.

I was working the same figures.

We shouldn't underestimate Chadli; he has an eye for goal and a lethal right foot.

The 20 goals for Gareth as well is being harsh given he is likely to improve and he got more than that last season.
