Pure coincidence that Jasper posted his info yesterday, then. The Italian media makes ours look like the acme of trustworthiness, so I wouldn't get too downcast on account of this.

Dimpop has added a few reports from Croatian sources in the Jedvaj player thread

When I logged on last night and the site wasn't working I was all excited, thought Benteke had signed or JJ had given an exciting transfer update
Instead it was a mundane case of the plug being kicked out of the socket.

Twitter always finds a way to screw things up. Bastard thing that it is.

I still reckon we will sign both. It's silly for Halilovic to turn us down. We would be the perfect club for him to learn his trade and establish himself like (bale). If he's that good Real Madrid and Barca will come knocking.
Especially with our multi-million pound training centre (which is what I shout at Kyle Walker every time he takes a duff corner (or something to that effect)).

Let's just hope the croatian boys don't ring Niko, Corluka, Pletikosa or Luka to ask if it's a good idea to sign for Spurs...

I think the most likely outcome in the perennial Spurs striker hunt is not anyone we've been linked with but a left field Baldini signing, hopefully of Porto style quality.

I hope we get Benteke, I really do. I'm convinced he'd do brilliantly for us, but much more importantly if AVB is convinced, which he obviously is, then we need to go for it.

What's important is AVB getting in who he wants, let Levy worry about sorting out the fee.

100 % agreed. If AVB thinks he's good enough then that settles it for me.

There was quite a bit of chat on COYS yesterday saying that Luka would probably urge them to come to us. He loved his time here and Levy even went to the training ground to say good bye when he left. Agreed he didnt go under the best cicumstances but think he appreciated the backing he always got from the fans

Plus, Spurs plucked him from (relative) obscurity, gave him game-time and made him a superstar - with those looks!

Well, we took a chance on him. Practically every CL regular had kicked his tires and given his suspension a quick going over for the previous couple of yrs but nobody wanted to take the risk on a player who had the physical size and presence of a 9 yr old who had very unfortunately just undertaken aggressive treatment for leukaemia.

It was us or the Barcodes.

Can Benteke buy out his own contract???
