Wenger on signing Kane

[yusrisafri]

To be fair, there are shit loads of English people who stupidly say "should of" and "would of" instead of "should have" and "would have".

And "their" instead of "they're"

 

[Trix]

Yeah but the Arse were really good back then and we were awful. Now we're alright and they are quite good. Their level has dropped and ours has lifted. I wouldn't worry about Campbell repeats until they become genuinely good again...Which looks unlikely under Wenger.

Will never be allowed to happen again under Levy, and that is a fact.

Just seen the full quotes.

"Once a player is at Spurs, you do not even consider him any more to be on your radar because you do not, historically, have many transfers from one club to the other.

“Sol Campbell? He was free, Campbell was out of contract. We didn’t negotiate any price.”

So yeah, we won't deal

Harry actually didn't look like he would make it. He went out on loans that were not particularly successful.

What he has done is keep working hard and believe in himself proving " if it's to be its up to me". A good example of never giving up. Good on him. A role model for others to follow.

Depends what you mean by make it. His frame and technical ability were always going to give him a career of some sort.

Even with the state of modern football such as it is, I still don't reckon there are that many players that would operate in the fashion C@mpbell did..you only have to see what happened later in his playing career and all the stuff he comes out with now to realise something isn't right there..

Quite a few guys who watch Spurs youth football felt Kane would make it having watched him come up through the ranks.

It was a fairly epic case. Something pundits refuse to grasp when discussing the emotion behind it

 

[McFlash]

I got his fucking name on the back of my shirt because he said he was staying!
Long sleeved yellow and blue one - I loved that shirt but hardly got to wear the thing.
Massive ****.

 

[Hoddtastic72]

I get the animosity toward Campbell and the Arse, but we would do the same thing to them if we could, and our fans would love it too! Maybe its time now for us to move on from S Campbell, he certainly doesn't deserve us to sing about him match days.

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

"He has great qualities and he will make a great career. But once a player is at Spurs you don't even consider him any more."

A subtle attempt to put people off signing for us or just honest to goodness tribalism?

Paranoia.

But you can get help for that young man.

 

[yankspurs]

And "their" instead of "they're"

Knowing when to put there or their is fucking hard to be fair.

You joking? Not being rude

 

[nuttynoah]

How many years has Arsey Weener spent in London and yet he still make those typically French grammatical mistakes.
It's 'have' not 'make' a great career. Go to the back of the class!

Fair point, but contracting 'have to 've as in 'should've'

To be fair, there are shit loads of English people who stupidly say "should of" and "would of" instead of "should have" and "would have".

Maybe it's a tricky contraction from have to 've and the result can sound like of.

I always go along with the theory on that kind of spelling, that as everyone knows what you mean why fucking worry?

that's step 1.

step 2: western civilization collapses.

i think the language just develops, do you think we should be speaking as they did in the 15th century?

don't be silly. i'm just being a curmudgeonly old git.

... now get off my lawn.

 

[Dundalk_Spur]

Wenger angry at club for letting little boy leave without telling him!!!!

Not doing much for his reputation is he???
