If we want to have a quality striker then levy need to be ready to put some cash on the table. "In fotball you dont get anything for free

 

[sly1]

People keep saying this and i've still seen no recent quotes from AVB to this effect.

Near the end of this article is the only place I've seen it. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/aug/17/andre-villas-boas-luka-modric-spurs?INTCMP=SRCH

Some of you may have worked out that I don't like flying.

Just since the subject of our transfer kitty has come up;

“But the money we need to invest is not dependent on Luca’s transfer. For different reasons it has not been possible to conclude the deals we have tried to do, so we continue to look for it to be done in the coming week.”

Your right a league isn't won or lost with the first game, but everybody had to expect a fan backlash if we lost our first game and after such a poor transfer window.

Only if they think our fans are brainless cocks.

Yes I'm venting, because I've got zero control over what, IMO, had prevented us, over the last few seasons, from striking while the iron was hot and fully establishing ourselves as a genuine CL side at the expensense of either Chelsea or Arsenal.

Hope you feel better now.

Just thinking about all of us over the last few windows thinking Harry was to blame for the poor transfer windows. It's clear now that levy is the one who makes everything so impossible. That o think deserves fact!

 

[storts]

Not really what we need but been told that the interest in Adam Johnson is very real, got a bid in for him.

Ryan stated that we are 5 m short of what they want mate somewhere on here. Who the he'll he is gonna cross to is a bit worrying tho.

Interesting, I was told the fee wouldn't be a problem, we'll see, either way get us some strikers

Redknapp bought plenty of players then spent the next few windows trying to get rid of them

It's options though innit? He's pretty direct and although I quite liked what Lennon did today, it might give him a kick up the arse a bit. Plus the lad's got a bit to prove.

Thanks storts. ryantegan mentioned our interest as well in another thread.

If its near our 10m valuation we will sign him. Unfortunate that city want 15m

I have heard before that he got some attitude problems and came drunk on a training once. Dont want any troublemarkers at the Lane

Why cross it to someone? Let's just have lennon, bale, and johnson cross it back and forth ad infinitum.

would be good cover but not a starter

I'd be happy with AJ as either real competition for Lennon or simply letting Lennon go and replacing him with AJ... sure we'd recoup all if not more of the fee with a Lennon sale.

Noooo! Lennon looked great today, really sharp and incisive.

We ain't signing anyone who will improve us from last season. When this becomes reality come September, do I get my ITK badge?
