Palace have already made it abundantly clear that any deal for Zaha would have to include a loan back for rest of the season.

If Palace want to anywhere near as much as they have been saying for Zaha they will have to realise that they cannot dictate other terms such as him being loaned back.

Wonder how long a memory the Palace board have though......they didn't seem too pleased with Levy over the Bostock thing (albeit during the reign if the orange man).

True. They may have to settle for a lower fee in order to have him for the remainder of the season. I think it would be best for both parties. Palace need him and wherever he goes to would be better off waiting for the summer. To step up from Championship to PL is tough but to do it immediately without any bedding in period through pre-season has got to be killer.

I read it too, The Mirror reporting we are meeting with Crystal Palace today, could be an interesting day!! http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/footb...ed-and-tottenham-are-in-bitter-battle-1521380

Our recent signings from Crystal Palace (Routledge & Bostock) haven't exactly set the world alight! I'd like to see Zaha at Spurs but anything over £5m is probably too much of a gamble at this stage for a player who could quite easily turn out like the previous two

I'm hugely uncomfortable with Ryan's latest ITK. Moving Adebayor on looks incredibly risky to me, such a pivotal player for us and when we are playing well he's normally the biggest reason for it.

Not always biggest reason, but certainly a big reason. No coincidence IMO that our best group of consistent performances have coincided with his first proper run of games.

Yes he does. I mean he is better at holding the ball up than Defoe, but Leandro's game is very similar the Huntelaar's with some added pace and a sprinkling of the Brazilian magic moments of skill. He can't do what Ade does from what I have seen.

Would that be 'kick like a girl, from 5 yds and miss the goal 80% of the time' just asking.....

Sorry guys I cant be arsed to answer every reply.

Basically, I have pestered re: Adebayor Parker and Livermore ever since they were mentioned as possible targets. Livermore has always been a goer, and will more than likely happen.

Parker, Harry has been interested in, but doubts he could do a deal for him. Also doubts whether Scotty would want to leave to go ANYWHERE!

Adebayor, He has never been denied really. But that was all till yesterday. My newer source raised the idea with me again. He said that we were looking at the idea of moving him on for sure. I asked the gaffer, and he confirmed this morning that he is more than just an idea for Harry. Harry thinks that we might be prepared to loan-to-buy!

Interesting to see that Zaha link being firmed up. I was told that we would back off as United were showing real firm interest, however it seems that Palace or Zaha? dont want to do a deal with United. We want him though thats for sure

Does anyone know if Harry Kane can be recalled? Because if he cant we will not sell Ade, because that would mean ideally we would need to buy two strikers and we all know that's not going to happen.
Every season long loan has a January recall, available to the parent club.

Isn't Parker a boyhood spurs fan ? Aren't Palace still mightily pissed off with us over the Bostock deal ? Hard to imagine they'd lean towards us ? Who owns Palace now ?

I wonder why! Maybe he wants to stay in London, or move to a team where he may play regularly instead of going out on loan like Nick Powell has?

Personally I think it would be a shame if he leaves Palace. He may as well stay there and help them progress, realise it is better to play than just train.

BC, does your PC/MAC/phone/tablet only connect to SC and that's it? All you do is ask questions that would take you 5 secs to work out yourself!

I'm not trying to be negative - just think it's funny! ;)
