The Spurs Twitter Thread - READ FIRST POST! 23rd August 2012

Personally even from the little i saw of him (i.e. last nights game) I'd rather we went all out for Isco as he is younger and attached to a club that is in the shitter financially so we are more likely to get good value there. Plus from what i've seen of Willian i think he's a good player but £20m..... not that good.

Not that it's a major point but it's €20m that Shaktar are valuing him at. That's just under £16m.

Venda de Damião é caso encerrado no #Inter http://bit.ly/SqtvXV

Not sure how recent the report is (the tweet is certainly fresh) but it seems to suggest that Inter have ended transfer talk on Damiao as they've not received an offer matching their valuation...

It would seems that even the COYS ITK Jacob now prefers the dark side

COYSERS think this is a genuine account.

Did that JJ tweet just confirm that we finally concluded the LD deal?

This as been the same for over a week,Inter have not changed their stance.
Anyway, AVB is on SSN later.

Bale - Ade - Lennnon

These three upfront with Defoe/Kane as understudy makes sense I cant see Llorente or Leandro playing second fiddle to Ade or visa versa.

Me neither.

 

[Gbspurs]

Me neither.

Same here but I could see Ade playing wide right of a front 3, especially based on his movement last season and his eye for an assist!

Llorente, no, Leandro, yes.

There are 50 games in a season, I reckon if we brought someone like Leandro in he'd start 40 % of the games and come on as a sub in many of the others - more than enough for a young player in a new and very tough league. The above, of course, not even considering injuries, suspensions and returning from international duty 8 time zones away. Two top strikers is not too much - it's Defoe this spells trouble for...

Says that as of last night no offer had met their valuation, apparently nothing over €25m as yet.

Ties in with JJ saying we're put in out last bid today though.

Wow to the small amount of info I've just heard!
The future is bright, the future is lillywhite.

Time to let all this Llorente/Leandro coming to us rubbish go. Ade is our No.1 for at least the next couple of seasons.

A new Winger/attacking midfielder and central midfielder, yes/maybe.

I know everyones minds have been warped by Harrys instence of playing a first 11 players into the ground but AVB has already stated that he will rotate.

Therefore no one will be playing 'second fiddle' they will just be 'rested' for strategic reasons. You know, like top teams do.

John Noakes?

Agree, but over time and not all in this window.

No way. He is not gonna track back. Why should he either, it's not the strong part of his game.

There won't be a lot of tracking back to do as a wide forward in a team playing a high line. How much tracking back does Hulk do (I genuinely don't know)?
