i think jj is having a laugh there in all fairness

is our goalkeeping coach tony parks?? if he does not rate butland then he should be fired! so many people in the game rate him. i just find that comment about butland unreal if true but nothing suprises me at spurs with regards players signed and scouted. so many top players slip thru the net

I may disagree with him on this one, but this is Tony Parks we're talking about! Go and rewatch the '84 shootout. Absolute legend.

you want to enlighten me on your worldy wisdom on why llorente is not gettable??

he plays for a decent team granted but not one of the top teams so we are actually an upgrade!

he is on a wage , if im not mistaken thats not even near 100k a week. and if he is then its not much more! so im sure if push came to shove we cud strech to that for a top striker.

he is a basque and a proud lad so maybe he might like to experience foreign league and not play for a rival??

sayng that f word is out that llorente wants out then city united arsenal and chelsea will all be keen.

We don't need a bigger signing than Ade. But we do need someone who can rotate in that position as Ade might suffer injury, loss of form or need a rest now and again. Also worth remembering that he'll be away for 6 weeks of the season from January at the ANC. The prospect of Defoe playing up top on his own during that time is horrifying.

Yes, it is, isn't it? Do you think it hasn't occurred to AVB and Levy?

Massive buy-out clause, he doesn't want to know, Bilbao don't want to know, all this shit was gone over ad nauseam two or three windows back. You slept through it?

Hard to believe he would not 'rate' him at all. Perhaps he means he does not rate him compared to the price tag birmingham seemingly want for him?

when have massive buy out clauses ever met when it comes to spanish clubs and yeah prob slept thru it but that was 2 or 3 years ago right?? times change and move on and im sure mr. llorente would like a nice new contract and been a basque he might have a bit of adventure about him like he always said he had!

Am I the only one who thinks that Gio wont be staying unless he signs a new contract, if he doesnt sign a new contract, I cant see Levy keeping him even if AVB wants him to stay

Some more from JJ:

on chances of Llorente:

If he halves his wages !!!

Lloris:

Lloris is/was never in advanced talks to my knowledge but others may be closer to that one?

Lewandowski:

You never know things may change and he will be the 1? Its all a bit fluid at the moment.

Ben Alnwick was very highly rated when we signed him.

Sorry, you didn't mention your qualifications for judging a keeper. Or perhaps you did and I missed them. Could you run them by us again?
