Looks likely now, as he has a stress fracture of the spine and, while he might be available for the FA Cup final, he will be out for a minimum of two months recovering. Makes it very unlikely that he will be sold before the start of next season IMO, who will take a risk on a player with a serious injury like that?

I think we should keep him and I think Redknapp would like to keep him, but O'Hara understandably wants to play every week even if it means leaving. Hopefully this will limit his options and he'll take his chances at cementing himself in our first team - I would say he's probably been the best of all Tottenham's central midfielders this year, just a shame it wasn't for us.

Redknapp does not want to keep him. The only reason he says that he wants him is that it puts the onus on the player to look for a move as it is clear with our current squad that O' Hara will not get a look in. If Redknapp said that he can move on that alienates the player, which is not good if we fail to find a buyer and it also means we automatically lower his sale price as buying clubs know we wanna get shot.

If you look at are midfield how is he gonna get in?

LW Kranjcar/Modric/Bale
RW Lennon/Bentley
CM Modric/Huddlestone/Palacios/Jenas/Sandro

O'Hara has already stated that he wants first team football next season. Who is he gonna displace?

Great squad player to have but if he wants to play every week it shouldn't be with Spurs.

Just wish he could get over playing 90 minutes every week and play 20 for us. He would be great to sub in and harass the opposition with in the final 20 minutes.

He would have played some serious minutes with us this past year anyway since we had such injury problems but it is his loss and if he wants to play for a crap team that gets beat week in and week out feel free.

Still running with the spice boys bollocks I see, even though we're in the Champions League qualifiers now.

He is way down the pecking order. I'm sure someone will snap him up.

Probably best to let him go, not really that keen on him to be honest.

Newcastle is a good shout, we really need to tap them up about our men of yesteryear. A 14 million O' Hara and Keane double swoop from Hughton would be nice.

Whatever we do, we shouldn't sell him to West Ham. I can just see him trying his nuts off when we played them and scoring against us. Send him somewhere like Birmingham.

I think the FA Cup semi put him in a difficult situation. He wasn't smart enough to be diplomatic and as a result burnt a few bridges. A move will be the best thing for him now.

He's a decent prem midfielder, but not of top 4 quality. And we are top 4.

You can't reply with basic grammar or English skills either apparently. Who of our centre mids has been better?

Modric, Palacios, Jenas and Huddlestone.

Whoopy do Ohara created more assists than all of our CM's. Our team play differently to Pompey with more emphasis on our wide players making the assists. Are you saying that you would swap any of our 1st team CM's for Ohara? I wouldn't and I would be surprised that even the biggest Jenas haters would too.
