[Archibald&Crooks]

Right, here's a brand new thread for the discussion of Spurs related Tweets. That's Tweets, not formations, not will Levy back AVB, not spending over the last few transfer windows, just the Tweets.​

Spurs bid for Willian the Brazilian from Shakhtar. It's around 20m. I've only seen flashes of him but he can play. Shakhtar yet to agree.

Wilian 20mil
Moutinho 25mil
Leandro 23mil

In and around 70mil for those 3, struggling to see us splashing that although we do seem to be shifting alot of bodies out of the club and freeing up more funds, here's hoping. Would be a great window to get those 3 in addition to the 3 current signings. Maybe add Lloris on the last day and we're cooking!

I agree the likelihood of us spending 70 million based on our usual outlay is pretty slim however, our current dealings in the transfer market probably still have us spending a net of 0. Therefore, if we get 35m for Modders then the 70 mil spend actually means a total of £35m outlay for the window - and early ITK suggested we had a pot this summer outside of sales. I still don't think it likely but just maybe this is the year we invest.

Imagine, Vertonghen, sig, Ade, Willian, Leandro, Moutinho, fryers, hall in for affectively 35m! Would be an unbelievable summer

Sounds about right. I thought once Ade was done then it was only LD all the way. Trying hard for yellow??

I distinctly remember him telling us Damiao's "ship has sailed" in the past.

Bloody well hope he can play... I can play too, don't see anyone rushing to pay my company 20m for me! ;-)

Damn shame, I rate Llorente much, much higher than Leandro, although agree he is a lot more of a similar player to Ade.

@SamWallaceIndy: Adebayor in but still plenty to do at Spurs plus QPR interest in former CFC favourite Ricardo Carvalho http://t.co/5CcPRITt

Bloody hell, (Twitter-) ITK that makes sense and ties in well with other ITK - can't be right then, can it? For the record I would be astonished if we signed both Ade and another player that ticks all these boxes: 1) Expensive; 2) Older than 25; 3) Tall, strong target man. Llorente ticks'em all. Leandro though makes a lot of sense and could even allow us to sell Ade for a significant profit in 1-2 years...

Would think it's more likely round the other way. The Ade ship came in when the Llorente ship headed towards Italy/west London.
