Thing’s I've Discovered

Don’t really post that much in here but I felt the need to pass on this information. I currently work at the airport and see a lot of people so have been able to meet some quite interesting people. The following are the best (or most relevant):

Last week Gomes agent and the guy who has been training him since he was 16 came through. They didn’t look to happy. They wouldn’t comment on his future but they did suggest they were here for moral support. Anyway I gave a message of support for him, feck knows if they passed it on.

Same week Corluka came through with his mrs. He seemed rather non-pulsed about thing but did comment that Ramos was not much of a talker, and he was happier with Redknapp (although you couldn’t of guessed it from the tone of his voice). His girlfriend on the other hand doesn’t like it in London. Corluka just rolled his eyes. Modric was also coming through but I didn’t get the chance to chat to him.

And lastly today, Pavalachenko and Arshavins agent Dennis Lachter came through. He said that Pavalechenko was abit unsure about Spurs at first but he is starting to settle. He also told me that Levy pulled out of signing Arshavin in August at the last min because he though thought he wasn’t worth the fee Zennit wanted. He did say he would be joining a London club this January although he wouldn’t say which (or rule out Spurs)

Also have met Zokora and Gilberto a few months ago. Gilberto was a really nice guy although I doubt he would be so chatty after the season he has had. Zokora show massive pride about playing for Spurs which is nice to see.

I know none of this is really anything new or groundbreaking but I though I would pass it on. If I ever meet a player on his way to join the club I’ll pass it on.

Thanks for the info mate...

Hope none of it is too serious for someone to want to leave the club!

It's only one month since the change of regime so it'll be too soon to see attitudes and outlooks being massaged for the better.

After a couple of months of steady progress I'm sure the attitudes will be more positive.

And there it is again, Arshavin, so he's now coming to london, well it can only be 1 of 3 clubs can't it, I can't see him wanting to play for QPR though.

Chelsea, yeah sure they could easily buy him, Arsenal, usually i'd say no chance but with there injuries who knows, then of course there's us who pretty much had him last August and also has his fellow Russian team mate of whom he likes to go clubbing with and being photographed with blonde women.

So you say Levy wouldn't pay the money Zenit wanted, I have heard that the asking price is now down to £16 million, I think we would go for that but then so would Barca and Madrid. Did you tell Lachter you were a Spurs fan, if you did he may have been being cautious incase you come on well known forums to tell everyone we have him :up:

Doesn't Corluka's girlfriend go to Manvhester Uni (sure I read that) so surely she'd be up there anyway?!

Nice one, thanks :up:

Good to see that there is something that takes away from the monotony of working at the airport.

I have only put down stuff I have been told.
Lachter was pretty cautious until I ousted myself as a Spurs fan. There was not much chance in him telling me where his clients were going. He said he was Pavs agent and good friend, maybe it was a problem with the language barrier. He may just be a friend and not his actually rep, he was a Israeli national but was born in the (old) USSR and said his clients were mainly Russian.

I'm not saying that Levy passed up on Arshavin due to money just thats what Lachter said. He may have just been telling me that.

Corluka's bird did have a student visa so that may be why she doenst like London. To far to travel to see her boyfriend.

Real Madyid, I’m sorry, changed now.

And all this is just stuff i have found out. I'm not claiming to know any secret information of am proclaiming any transfers/squad mood, just thought i would pass on some information.

The Arshavin story is the main highlight, everyone wants to know the deal with this, there are those like me who believe he has already signed a pre-contract with us and there are those more skeptical who believe Harry doesn't want him and he'll most likely end up at the Bernabeau (check spelling).

I really do hope you are right co's if he is moving to London I can only see it being to us after all thats happend.

I'm just being hopeful though.

I personally wouldnt mind Arshavin but even if Lachter said that Arshavin had joined i doubt i would believe till i saw a picture of him down the lodge with a spurs shirt, but i'm a pessimist.

From Jan 1'st though i will be keeping my eyes open at Heathrow in the vien hope to meet (any) players coming through.

I think we will know one way or the other before Jan 1st, if we have signed him on a pre-contract it will be announced after Zenit's CL game with Madrid, there would be no reason to delay it unless Levy wanted to wait until christmas eve to give all us Spurs fans a christmas present, it certainly would bring smiles to our faces.

If he is leaving Zenit then tonight will be his last home game, its on Sky Sports 2 at 5, I for one will be watching very closely.

Not to far to travel just worried that Danielle Lloyd lives in London and he's a new footballer in town

I'm pretty sure she does, a lot of the Man City players do... their training facilities are pretty much next door to the uni...

I wonder what the viewing figures (in England) are for ZSP CL games since the summer

She's doing a degree in fleecing footballers and selling stories.

Poor girl's only on a student grant

Catesy how did you know it was Denis Lachter you spoke to, just out of interest.
