    Tottenham Hotspur have made a £6 million bid for West Ham United defender Anton Ferdinand according to english papers.

    The offer was rejected by Hammers boss Alan Curbishley but Tottenham are not giving up.

    Ferdinand was handed his full debut in August 2003 when he started the 2-1 victory at Preston on the 2003-04 season's opening day, and went on to feature in 26 games that term.

    In the 2004-05 season, he cemented his first team place with several key performances (including scoring the opening goal on the final day as the Hammers beat Watford 2-1) as West Ham booked a play-off spot. West Ham went on to beat Preston in the final, earning them promotion back into the FA Premier League after an absence of two years.

    i smell something

    Doesn't Reo-Coker want out? Offer them Murphy in part exchange.

    I don't think he will enjoy being second choice and I don't think he is worth 6m - however he is a decent young english defender with potential to improve.

    I really hope this is not true (and, having my usual disregard for transfer window media speculation, I suspect it isn't).

    Not because I don't think he is a good player or has potential, but I really think in today's era of Bentleys and dogging, it is probably not a good idea to get him and Alnwick together for a night out.
  5. striebs
    All the Ferdinands (including Sir Les) are greedy playboys who only turn out when they feel like it .

    Introducing players with their attitude to our dressing room would be a step backwards .
  6. Real_madyidd
    Hahahahahaha. No thanks. Dawson and king are better than him. What is the point? I reckon Chelsea have approached them so they have leaked this to up the price.
  7. walworthyid
    He is no better than what we have as cover and I would play davenport over him any day.
  8. battspur
    he is no way near as good as the 4 we have !
  9. Stavi
    good looking brother though.

    Appearently I'm the only one who want us to sign Anton. Think he could turn out to be a great signing. I'd rather we signed Anton than Upson.

    However there are many shitty rumours these days, but I've heard West Ham are interested in Gardner - so maybe we'll swap + £3 m to West Ham?

    A Baby Bentley?
    As Curbs calls them.
    Plus with the Ferdinand gene...errr no thanks.

    Would be a bad 'team buy' plus he is Ammers' and bubbles thru and thru and would not go to Spurs. We need a good solid pro with experience. IMO Davenport is young and getting better. Still reckon Curtis Davies is best option., Then Upson.

    I'd rather Anton than Upson too. Not always injured and it gives us alongside King the England under 21 pair of CB's.

    rubbish rumour...makes little sense...spammers have a bit of dough...need to stay up...
  14. thetallaghttiger
    Just because Sir Les is related to the 2 eejits, doesn't mean he should be viewed in the same way as them!

    Less of the Sir Les bashing please :bang:

    He was/is a legend :beer:
  15. TheBoyFletch
    He is average at best.... wouldn't sign him for half that!!
  16. marchimself
    God please no. I wouldn't even like Rio in a Spurs shirt. It's all about money for the Ferdinands, they like any real passion for the game.
  17. grittyspur1
    If we sign Anton, then surely Ledders will go under the knife!
    Let's hope not.
    COYS!
  18. Captain Spur
    Haha he loves himself doesn't he!

    Think that Ben Sherman modelling work has gone to his head. Don't think he realises that all the women that throw themselves at them are after their money. "what first attracted you to multimillionaire ugly boy Rio?"
