Despite our mostly excellent business this window, if we let BAE go and don't bring in a left-back (even if only an understudy to Rose) then that will be a poor decision, and one we will likely regret come January.

It would be an absolute disgrace but typical of THFC to grasp defeat from the jaws of victory!

im sure i remember harry redknapp saying that he wanted rid of all the mercenary footballers at QPR and only wanted players 100% commited to the good of the club?

so he goes and signs BAE.........

how was he any less than 100% committed to spurs?

If Benny is a loan then I completely fail to see the point of it, or am I missing anything?

We've got to have a LB lined up now

I can see us thinking Rose, with Vertonghen as LB against teams with an aerial threat, plus Naughton and the Fryers is enough. Don't expect anyone to come in.

Why on earth would he go there. He's better than the LB's at 14 of the teams in EPL, 17 of the teams in la liga, and about the same in serie A
But that's the nub of BAE's psyche. One club is the same as another.

It's like a receptionist losing her job as a receptionist at the Savoy and getting one at the Premier Inn. Same job, same money, just different premises.

BAE is far from a mercenary. Rather than hold him to comments he made a number of years ago when he was young, look at what his actual character has been like since he's been with us.

He is the complete anti-thesis of a footballing mercenary. How many money grabbers spend 6 years at one club?

With the greatest respect to Mystery, if the Torres/Ade swap thing has been mooted by Di Marzio (which I think I read it has) then DI Marzio is likely to be right considering who his source is.

And frankly, whilst not ideal blah blah, good enough.

This is us done I think, got more chance of getting a blowjob off the queen now than signing anyone.

Excellent transfer window, could have been better if it was not for ****ish agents.
