Sandro & Gallas to be paraded Wednesday>>>
Posted: Today at 2:31pm Keane did have a bust up with both Harry and then Jordan before the YBs match apparently he was expecting to play because Defoe had still got a groin niggle, but Harry took the risk and I have been told Harry is a bit embarrassed about Keane's pre season form, because he wants him out.

We have put in an offer of about £11 m for Fabiano and there have also been previous bids put down for Huntelaar,Suarez, Benzhema (sp), Remy and Toivonen, I can also confirm we have asked Chelski about Anelka.

Harry wants two more midfielders and he has a hit list of

Young or
Turan was Bellamy
Diarra or
Parker

All of the above apart from Toivonen are dependant on Wednesday night so expect a very busy last few days of the transfer window, but then whats new?

Harry would like to get a few more out, but in some cases is frustrated because of injuries e.g. O'hara and Bentley. Some enquiries from Italy and Spain for JJ and Gio.

Not really news but, Gallas and Sandro to be paraded on Wednesday night.

Thats all for now folks, take with a pinch of salt if you wish, but my source is genuine with a deep love for the club and all is passed on in good faith.

Just wanted to say "good work" to adiepf :clap:

You sound more confident than Fazza during the "Arshavin Window" but in a more solid kind of way, if you get what I mean?
Top work sir and thanks for sharing the info.

 

[StanSpur]

It would be great, going to the lane twice this week and if the first visit sees qualification for the CL and the second the unvieling of Brazils first choice striker i think it would be safe to say its a good week. If we could throw in one of those 6-0's that seem to be going around then all the better.

Nice one mate, you have singularly got me quite excited about this transfer.

 

[Lilbaz]

I will hold off applause till I see them wearing the shirt. Appreciate all the info and is not meant to be disrespectful but anything can happen. Levy thought Campbell was going to sign a contract extension and you couldn't get better ITK than that.

The foresome of Fabiano, Toivonen, Arda and Diarra would turn us into a title challenging side and squad IMO.

 

[davidmatzdorf]

OK, there are now simply too many people saying that we are trying to sign Fabiano for it to be made-up bullshit.

What would, I suppose, be too much to ask is that, if on 1 September we haven't signed Fabiano, we avoid the wave of ITK-hate and the insistence that all 5 or 6 of the people who are announcing that that we are trying to sign Fabiano have "failed", lied or otherwise let us down.

It's not a prediction contest. Not a single person has said that we actually have signed Fabiano. There's been an interesting lack of the usual "deal done" nonsense so far. Two or three have claimed that we have agreed terms with Sevilla. The rest have just said that we are "trying to sign Fabiano".

There are enough people, from different countries and angles, saying the same thing that I think we have to accept that we are indeed attempting to sign this player. That would make the ITK correct, whatever happens from here.

 

[SpurSince57]

Terry Tibz' stuff reads like a compilation of most of the other ITK we've had. And still on about Young? General Krooklok says he's not for sale, Harry says we haven't even enquired this summer.

So we should start now and get it out of our system by the 1st. Got it!

:wink:

 

[maltahotspur]

I honestly think POTL is pretty close to the top hierachy at Spurs, so his Keane comments could be more a spin from the club than anything. If there was a bust up with Keane, it's best kept under wraps. These things happen in football, and it needs to remain behind closed doors. Especially with such a crucial game coming up.

It will be interesting to get some ITK on what the players thoughts are on Gallas coming in.

Good stuff - thanks.

I guess it does indicate that POTL may tow the club line a little and that there is always a little bit of opinion with ITK.[/quote]

But, if one is to go by both your theories there, then why do we get ITK from POTL such as this one on Gallas, may I ask ? :

Don't look to me as he is towing the Club's line there is he ?

I have a sneaky feeling we are going bigger than Toivonen. Arda and Diarra I could take or leave, they'd be good additions but not essential. Diarra on loan maybe but I think Harry would prefer the experience and leadership of Parker than the talent of Diarra.

Alan Sugar :wink:

Levy took over Feb 2001. Sol Campbell joined Arsenal summer 2001. I think

Just had a quick look on COYS, nothing new but someone did say there are conflicting reports about Keane coming out of the club.

So this could be where the split in ITK's has happened.

It probably depends who you talk to. If you ask one player he might say it was nothing, where another would dramatise it and say they almost came to blows. Depends on the peoples opinion. I can't see all of the ITK contacts being present for the event and it would probably be down to what they heard about it after.
