the only way we will sign SWP is if someone like Ricardo Queresma goes to Chelsea if they don't sign a new right winger, then he'll still be there next season

more than a little, i reckon he would only join 2 clubs in our league

i can't see Carew ever being put inbetween the strikers and midfield 1 because he's the target man, and if we need to hit a long ball hes the man to get it too 2 because he has too much power and pace which would be wasted playing him in such a deep role 3 if we are going to put someone in attacking midfeild then he should be a creative player

i'd LOVE wright phillips an SWP playing regularly for us with young on the other side, would be awesome

on the right allowing Young to play in his favoured position on the left btw Milner has said today that he would love to win a trophy with Newcastle etc, so that one is probably out of the window

Everton can't afford Fernandes i really really really hope we sign him up yes 12 million is alot, but he is a champions league quality player of the future he's only 21, if he stays for 4 - 5 years maybe longer he will be well worth the 12 million as he is hardly a risk either having settled at both Everton and Pompey

and as much as i don't rate lampard, sidwell is hardly a good enough replacement it's quite baffling tbh i could understand them getting a centre back who probably isn't top top draw, but centre mid where they are packed full of talent?

jesus christ what an idiot does he not realise that he will be competing with far superior players like lampard, mikel, essien and ballack thats annoyed me, i honestly believed he was in the bag

this was on the transfer gossip on football 365's site i'd be happy if we signed him, hes a good player, who would definalty improve the squad

according to some reports over the weekend he has already signed a pre contract with us i don't know what truth their is in that, but i'm pretty confident over us signing him, usually i'm pretty pessimistic when we are challenging with other teams for a player, but i'm confident over this one

he's amazing on the last 2 FM's so must be good eh?

he is good enough for spurs, hence him being linked with Man United but fortunatly for Spurs they happen to have two other top class strikers as well, so he can't always play he's not my first choice for the summer as i think he's quite lazy and has games where he just doesn't get involved enough, saying that though i would still be delighted if we signed him as hes the sort of player i can never see us signing under the old regime i'd much prefer robbie keane but he's out of reach now, but defoe is a lot better than bellamy IMO i don't know about bent, defoe's probably more clinical but the fact bent can play both forward roles attracts me more to him.

that would be an exciting move i've only saw him on youtube, but reading about him he has been touted as the next Zidane he's only young but has made it into the France squad he's also been wanted by Inter Milan and Arsenal in the past i'd be delighted if MON was genuinly going for someone like him, but i'm not going to think about in case i get my hopes up too much

Koller is way too good to be a big man cover for us plus he is 34, players that age want to play, and when you have players like Koller who would be wanted all over europe he isn't just going to settle for a bench role with us

fernandes is a quality player i'd love him here, he was very very good at portsmouth, and has carried that form onto Everton this kid is only 21 and he is producing top performances

i know you weren't asking me but i think it was Navy Blue Design Group they definatly did the spurs badge anyway, i've just looked on their site 'Brian Homer' on H&V said this -

just reading H&V and apparently it was Randy who designed the badge not pro designers...

thats just the sort of player we need for left back if we got somone who was 26 - 29 they would expect to play regularly, and Bouma's form is too good to be dropped i.e samuel so bringing someone young who can challenge his place and gradually take over the left back spot in coming years, but can't expect to play every game is a good move. i would bet he's probably more attack minded also

We will 100% bring in a new centre back IMO it seems we went in for Woodgate, just because we missed out on him i don't think that means we will give up on trying to bring one in. I believe Laursen is over his injury problems, but its still a risk to just have two experienced centre backs available Ridgewell is good, but i don't think he has the ability to improve as much as Cahill can, and become good enough for a much improving Aston Villa i hope and think we will see a new centre back (similar in age and ability to Woodgate) and the sale of Ridgewell.

excellent article, and i'm glad the professional's can see what a poor crest this is, i fear some of the people who actually like it just like it because its here and the chosen badge, i find it hard to believe that if we put some of the designs on this site and our previous crest alongside this one, that they would choose our current one as the badge of choice. we should be looking for the best one, and as i said in another thread, one with a WOW factor, the only WOW factor this badge has is WOW this is really poor. Main queries i have read on various forums is why has the lion been tamed? why have they used such poor fonts? why did you change a badge that was a pretty good one, in exhancge for this bland, basic, amatuer design? Wasted opportunity somes all this up perfectly for me.

i didn't mean the race thing i mean like people see someone has a bright future, and see he has abit of pace and has the same sort of features as rio ferdinand and then automatically assume he will be a similar play to him when hes older in terms of ability

i havent seen curtis davies THAT much, but whenever i have i only come to the conclusion that he is very overrated i can't help but think, if he wasn't mixed race and the build of ferdinand he would only have half of the attention he gets now i get the impression, because he looks similar to ferdinand people expect he will autmoatically turn out like him

yeh i like mcshane but i've only saw him a couple of times but what i can see is that he is very brave, the type to put everything he can in the way to block a shot, and put his head in where it hurts i think he is best at centre back, but he's a very good right back who can attack also if you remember back to the blues game, i'm sure he won the penalty from sprinting down the right, and also got took out by julian gray for the red card whilst he was sprinting through to goal i can't really remember the game that well so that above might have been the same incident , but i don't think it was

i haven't saw any of those reports you got a link?

dyer was playing, he's one of the most overrated players i've ever seen its laughable that hes on 80k and spurs's highest earner is keane on 43k
