Next season is the big one. If we end it empty handed I can see a lot of players leaving. It's hard to take but it's the reality.

I'm only worried about Kane, dele and Toby.

I'm pretty sure That Davies, trippier, vertinghen, dier, wanyama, dembele, son, eriksen won't be pushing for a move. Rose should also be happy. If Hugo leaves we can replace him with someone like Pickford.

Well if it's any of the first team then they certainly haven't played like they 'want out' over the past two years.

Success breeds jealousy.

So Spurs strongly linked with Zaha and is so plain that he wants to come that Jordan spouting any old garbage to deter him. Can only see Walker going feom first team (and to be honest not that fussed as not been great this year and Walker Peters progress being stifled) and replacing some fringe players being upgraded and being even stronger next year.

As much as we don't like it he very could well be right, whether he has an inside word or not.

I think Sissoko, Wimmer, Bentaleb and N'Jie are the obvious picks. There's also a lot of smoke around Walker at the moment.

There's 5 which would be a "significant number" of players.

You couldn't blame GKN and Janssen for wanting more game time on top of this, but have both come out recently and said they want to work to prove their worth to get more time with Spurs.

The one that doesn't get mentioned often but secretly worries me the most is Dier. He's way too good to be a rotation player, as much as it suits us, and Manchester, his admitted childhood club, could very easily double his wage and guarantee him a starting spot.

Hopefully JJ or trix can add their bit to this.

Let me do it for you. Jordan is a bitter twat whom Levy has chewed up and shat out in a previous deal. He's been given a platform to get revenge. Watch Zaha hand in his transfer request at the end of the season

'And Jordan misses with the first wild haymaker in the Zaha punch up! Levy steps back a pace as Jordan lands on his arse.'

If you read the article below you'll remember why Simon Jordon hates us so much.
On 30 May 2008, Tottenham Hotspur announced the signing of Bostock on their club website.[6] Crystal Palace later issued a statement denying reports that an agreement had been reached with Tottenham.[7]Tottenham and Crystal Palace entered negotiations over the transfer fee, but agreement could not be reached, leading to the sum being decided at a tribunal. On 9 July the tribunal declared that Tottenham would pay £700,000 for Bostock, with add-on payments of up to £1.25m dependent on appearances and a further £200,000 should he make his full international debut. A sell-on clause entitles Crystal Palace to 15% of any profit Tottenham makes from any future sale of Bostock's contract.[8][9] Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan said he was so disgusted with Bostock and his stepfather that he intended to revoke and refund their Selhurst Park season tickets for 2008–09, which the pair had already purchased.[10]

Nothing in there about hating us, his problem wasn't with us but the Bostocks and the system that enabled us to sign him from them

That's the thing here, and with any 'story' regarding players wanting out. Technically, he's correct. Who here will cry over the players you mention, bar Walker, deciding they want out? Wimmer will be a shame but then again, any game he has played this season he really hasn't performed well enough. All can be replaced adequately and upgraded at that too.

Walker and Toby are the only first team starters being linked away right now. We have cover for Walker and I think Tony just wants the contract to be correct as it could possibly be the last big contract he signs. Died? I rate him, highly, but if he wants out, kicks up a fuss and United are interested? Entertain it and maybe speak with them, but need to insist that Martial or Herrera for example, are part of the discussions! We need to remind domestic rivals that this isn't 2006. We are equals and longer ripe for plucking.

Real, Barca and Bayern are a different matter.

That's not really true though, we were entitled to negotiate with bostock, he agreed terms with us, we were unable to agree a fee with palace so it went to a tribunal

Graham Roberts just responded perfectly. 'Absolute load of bollocks'

Someone who will have contacts at the club etc...

Gary Stevens also calling it bullshit and attributing it to troublemakers.

Worrying about things you can't control is like farting apathy...

Nonsensical.

That being Said, Simon Jordan just wants to get his oversized and over coloured face on TV. (you'd think with such big screens the norm nowadays he'd shy away from media work :rolleyes:)

When have we ever sold more than one of our top players in the same transfer window? We're not Southampton

I think you'll find he wasn't very happy with our board either

Love that we've got all these pricks rattled lol.
Bring it on mfs.
We're going nowhere but up and you're shitting bricks at the fact.
Nothing any of these twats say will have a bearing on anything that happens.
Players will come, players will go. Not one will be put in motion by the media spouting shit.
So sit back, relax and just laugh that these pundits and those in the media realise we're now a massive threat and are on the verge of pissing on their parade (y)

Bentaleb has already left, Janssen and GKN have already come out and said they want to stay as well Dier doesn't strike me as someone who wants to leave and he's even said that he's happy playing in different positions. It's pretty clear that the majority the players are happy at Spurs right now, why would they all have signed up in the last year or so if they weren't?

We're going to have to get used to this throughout the summer so people need to stop worrying and stop listening to dickheads like Simon Jordan who knows absolutely fuck all.

I like this. These past two seasons have seen us unzipping the flies I reckon!
