Tottenham Hotspur 2011-2012 Official Thread

well done lads, you got yourself a bargain there. he'll play his little socks off to get you off the bottom. and i certainly don't begrudge him his move, even to your shower ;) but you look after him, if you hurt him you'll have us to answer to.
 
It's a useful signing, but I'm concerned about Sandro not getting enough airtime.

It shouldn't be a problem because the Europa overloads the club with games and necessitates squad rotation. Unfortunately Harry's never appeared to understand the concept, and just waits until the lack of a break lands players with injuries, and which point he's forced to play those outside his favourite triffic eleven. Unless you're Niko of course. If you're Niko, Jenas will get games playing out of position before Harry will consider allowing you to kick a round thing.

2056: RUMOUR MILL
I'm sure Harry Redknapp has got something special up his sleeve. Latest word on the Tweet is not Tim Cahill, though... it's only bloomin'Kaka. Only rumours at the moment Spurs fans, so don't get carried away (too much).
 
A half decent sort out in the end but could have done with one big 'un. From the pov of positions:

Crouch (£12 mill) < > Adebeyor (on loan)
Palacious (£8 mill), Jenas (season loan) and Bentley (season loan) < > Parker (£5.5 mill)
Plus, Hutton (£4 mill) out, Friedel (free) in.

Shame the Bassong (to QPR) > Cahill deal fell through. You'd have thought Levy would stretch a bit given he's almost £20 mill up on the window, spent very little last year and hasn't touched either the Prem income or the CL money from last season. In terms of personal pride, I suppose he's taken a hit on both Palacious and Hutton.... and there is a new stadium to finance.

'arry:
"We had 29 senior players this morning and we couldn't name four of them [in the 25-man Premier League squad], which means you've got four who might not be able to play," said Redknapp. "So we had to clear a few out. It was difficult. They're all good players and they'll all do well. I wish them all the best."

I know what you mean, but if Levy considers the Palacios deal 'taking a hit' then he's an idiot. We got full value out of him from what he put in on the field at crucial times.
 
I forgot to include Robbie pistol-shootin Keane in this summers wage bill retrenchment. On the quiet, Levy's knockerd off a few big earners.
