[Update 55] POTL re: Gudjohnsen

[BringBack_leGin]

Eidur suppoted tottenham as a boy IIRC. This article seems to confirm it, so that would given him more reason to join us over the 'Ammers.

Yeah, the article says it's because his dad gave him a video that featured Spurs players when he was just a kid. Funny that, because his dad's penalty was that which Tony Parks saved to win us the Uefa cup :grin:

 

[Scutch]

So even after Harry confirmed last night we were interested, someone felt it necessary to ask POTL if there was any truth in a potential deal!

I think a few folk thought it was a smokescreen.

POTL now saying West Ham are offering crazy money for his wages. Will be interesting to see what comes of this.

Will he have as much sense as Bent did?

 

[danielneeds]

He's not a striker anymore, he's a midfielder. He will be cover for Hudd's position.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Go on Eidur, refuse the dirty porn money and come to us... you can use it as an opportunity to get close to Tony Parks and get revenge for your dad!

I'd have edited that bit out if I was his Dad! :grin:

If Eidur comes in then Pav is def off.

IF Pav Goes, Eidur might come in

 

[bubble07]

We want to see them relegated so this makes perfect sense. I will never ever forget how they celebrated when they beat us on the last day of the season

 

[stevenurse]

Signing past it players in the hope west ham go down because he would rescue their season is shocking, as if. If he is going to cover Hudd's position then id prefer JOH to be honest. If he still had it and was worth having then a second rate monaco side wouldnt be letting him go on loan.

 

[3Dnata]

No real enthuasiasm for this but if we are in a fight with West Ham I want us to win.

 

[dan2706]

Has'nt EG been playing his football in Midfield since the Mourinho days at Chelski?

Saying that I am sure he'll still be an improvement on Crouch

 

[jolegend]

Was a great player in his day amd at 31 I am sure he could still do a good job for us.

All for it.

 

[Wellspurs]

Pav age 28 not playing we get £13m- Eider age 31 Free.To Mr Levy makes sense.

He's not a striker anymore, he's a midfielder. He will be cover for Hudd's position.

Hmm, so we've been desperate for cover for Wilson, but instead we're looking at a creative midfielder as cover for Hudd?

Bit wierd if you ask me. I'd rather Huntelaar despite his lack of prem experience.

Jenas actually plays the same position as Wilson (maybe not as well, but that is another debate)...presses the ball, covers alot of ground. We don't have another CM with composure, who can put his foot on the ball and run a game tactically....that could be something that Eidur could do for us in a squad system.

As for Huntelaar, he is basically the Dutch Defoe, we have no need for him, lots of peole slagging off the Gud signing, saying he was a failure at Monaco, but Huntelaar hasn't exactly set the world on fire at Real and Milan has he?

oh yeah, I forgot crouch is always shit to some no matter how well he plays, just because he's tall :shrug:

This quote from the West Ham chairman makes me think that this deal is closer than any of us realise:

Doesnt David Sullivan own shares in Spurs?? Im sure he does and if so he must be a right pillock

Does he? first time i've ever read anything about that.

 

[Real_madyidd]

fuck

Sorry, Didn't realise he was only 31. For some reason I had 36 in my head. Must be from a chinese menu.

Spurs sign Gudjohnsen. West Ham sign Sweet and Sour Chicken.
