Maybe Jol will play Gareth Bale on the left side of midfield if he cant sign one. Read that Bale is a versatile player.

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Spurs have been quite quiet on the transfer trail so far. Anyway, ziegler has been sold to sampdoria, which is a waste. At the same time, I would say that spurs have spent too much on darren bent, who's only an average player.

Hopefully, he can prove me wrong:)

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

i'm not sure if bale has ever played in left midfield, but as chairman putrawk pointed out, there are already ah lee and assou-ekotto in left back. l like lee a lot becos he covers a lot of ground and is always able to dribble in and make decent crosses. i do reckon lee can make a good left winger.

does spurs still have the biggest squad in epl again like last season? :D

well, players who are out on loan are usually no longer in the managers' future plans.

the price for bent is a big sum by spurs' transfer standards, all spurs need is to win something next season to justify everything. just like all have forgotten about carrick's price tag in man utd when they won the league title. bent never fails to score spectaculars and i hope he will be very entertaining with what he does best.

btw, bent's size reminds me of adriano. :D

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

not sure y everybody says selling ziegler is a waste...
saw him play a few times....he first touch is usually heavy, he give away ball too cheaply....not a gd player to me

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Quiet? We spent almost 40mil already and Jol said that he has yet to look for more! Our transfers are big transfers thus far, and this is what we need to break the top 4. Even if you follow webistes like Teamtalk.com or Fotball365.com, Spurs have always been linked with a new player almost everyday, eventhough some are just down right rumour. So I cant understand why you say we have been quiet. We are the 2nd most active club behind Man Utd in the close season.

Yes yes, your chairman has spoken of that. LOL. Yeah, Lee is very familliar with the Left midfield position, thats where he played for the Koreans in the 2002 WC. In fact, before he left to ply his trade in Holland, he was signed as a LMF, only until he was transformed to a LB in his very 1st season. To me he is THE BEST RIGHT FOOTED LEFT BACK IN THE WORLD...hahha...

I reckon we do have ONE of the biggest squad. This will enable Jol to do a Rafa Benitez in rotating his squad, which might come in handy since we will be playing 50-odd games again this season.

His size of what, bro?????? :D :p

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

maybe bro Fantastic4 is still roaming the galaxy with the invisible girl, so didnt get the recent news hahaha... (just having some fun ok). :D

so ah lee was a left midfielder! come to think of it, as a non-professional soccer player myself since teenage, i used my left foot as much as my natural right foot the whole time. i can shoot and cross the ball with my left as well as the other foot. but there arent so many like lee and me around. :p

the size of his what? hahaha...

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Hi bro Castrol,

FM is a good football managerial game. Graphic wise not much... I heard CM developers have crossed over to develop FM.

Anyway, anyone saw Bent's debut goal for Spurs against Stevenage? This guy is good... and Taarabat scores too... very weak shot though...

Yah boy... we have been really active in the transfer market this season... Jol going for SWP and Giuly? Both are righties..... we need a leftie! Having said that.... we might not be getting any LW... if Jol is alright playing Malbranque or Tanio on the left...

Alright, we have backup for most department.... ST, CB, LB, RM, CM... but what about RB? Chimbonda is good... but what if he is injuried? Essoko?

Anyway, I think Gardner is on his way out... There is so much challenge in the CB position.....

COYS...

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

i played FM (2D match graphics only) before, the demo actually. but cant like it so much becos there's no 3D game engine. so i played TCM instead. i'll try to check if there's a demo for the new 3D CM to download for water testing.

bent scored already? you went to the game? did you see kaboul and bale? why want swp when spurs have lennon? but giuly is good and deadly. :D

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Nah.... I saw the video here... and read the report here...

cheers!

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

1) Putting cost aside, will Jol rather sign Bent or Tevez?

2) If SWP comes to WHL, will he or Lennon more suitable to play as left winger?

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Shhh...not so loud or invisible girl will be embarrassed....anyway, no hard feelings.

Cheers

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Correct me if I am wrong, but when the 2005/6 season ended, Jol brought in some players regularly. However, after the reason concluded season, after buying Gareth Bale, nothing much has happened except the on-going rumours. Perhaps that is y I hv the impression that it's been rather quiet.

Cheers

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

wow they look so good! :D

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

It seems that spurs have signed yet another good midfield player, boateng from hertha berlin. Dunno wats their policy but it seems that they are doing so more for business than football. ie. buy decent players, showcase them in the premier league, then sell them for a profit. With 40mil pounds, why dont they buy 2 proven football stars. Hope im wrong but i expect some spurs players to be sold soon or in jan.
