This for me is where the problem lies really. I think for all his apparent qualities Avb has some serious shortcomings and my gut is telling me he's a poor judge in some respects. I hope i'm wrong. There's just something about him which is seriously nagging away at me and it's not his Ginger hair.

I hope he's backed to the hilt. I just don't think we need overhauling more tweaking and fine tuning. And ade will smooth that process. We were a top 3 team last season in reality and I worry that we're gonna go backwards and possibly unnecessarily. If ade can't be done get LD in by all means or whoever they deem appropriate and gettable...but, well you know what i'm saying...

So let's get ade then...he might be older than LD and be less of a saleable asset for levy but his cost in real terms won't be any more because his reduced transfer fee will offset his daft wages.

I think he's a better player. And despite the difficulties easier to secure than LD who's transfer has dragged on for years supposedly. He knows the league, is already settled and is proven in the Prem.

I think BC from the little i've seen LD is more like Sir Les than Shearer or RVN and that's not a terrible thing at all (he was in his prime an exceptional player) but I prefer an all rounder personally who interacts more with the other strikers...

Have you thought we could get both and that changes things significantly....

Now this would be the best outcome IMO.

Less pressure on Leandro and he could be rotated with Adebayor. My problems with LD stem from the price and the fact that he would be expected to be first choice from the start. If we buy Adebayor as well, I'm happy with our forward situation!

I have and dismissed it. We're talking shit loads of money spent, unprecedented possibly at Spurs in recent years. Or do you mean we can get both but have to choose one?

You know what's going on and I don't mate so I bow down to your greater knowledge. However if we end up with Defoe, Kane and Frazier Campbell levy will be bowing down with a boot in his bollocks...

Seems like things are happening! Dont think JJ would bring us hope unless he is certain We're in for a treat!
Thx for the positive news:)

Told you the future is bright!!

Funny, I just updated my status with a song lyric...

"To all those in the know, you can leave but you can't go..." which reminded me of your's & Aqkayid's relative departures to Twitter. What makes it stranger is the fact that the chorus on this song goes...

"The future's bright...the future's coming..."

I hope you're right mate, Leandro & Ade would be amazing, fingers crossed eh...?

Those two would be fantastic and already put this place into meltdown! now we gonna have a nightly "guess who is better" game and my guess would be Cavani, Higuain, Falcao or Llorente;)

Bloody hell thats good to hear mate :)

My only concern with leandro is there is sure to be clubs interested in him especially ac milan (looking for ibra replacement) and also his willingness to join us after mentioning countless times about our bid for him.

I just hope we push really hard for this deal to go through .. Its quite evident we want damiao. And after watching him extensivly at the olympics he would be a massive signing for us ..

Taking away premierleague experiance leandro d is a better striker then adebayor in terms of scoring goals. His predatory instincts in the penalty box is very very sharp.

And with the potential likes of bale.vdv.sigy.his mate sandro ;) all around him . The guy will score goals for fun.

Lets make it happen.. Over to you levy
