Somewhat true as I was one of those who didn't want Alderweireld not because I thought he was slow or a bad defender, I just simply thought he was too similar to Vertonghen and we needed something different.To be honest, 2 years ago when we were first linked to alderwerield, most Spurs fans had a similar opinion of Toby - slow, not good enough etc.
Turns out he's one of the best we've had.
You're just jelly you didn't make the thread yourself.Weird policy of the moderator(s): this link is just a suggestion from Metro that Spurs should buy Bartra (not Batra) and it's not a "rumour"....while I got this link rumou deleted : http://metro.co.uk/2016/01/25/totte...-for-fc-sion-defender-pa-modou-jagne-5640596/ also linked in: http://www.express.co.uk/sport/foot...injury-blow-club-line-deal-international-star and http://www.london24.com/sport/footb...tottenham_chase_premier_league_pair_1_4391273 and http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/fo...eing-swoop-for-highly-rated-international-ace
Same site, Metro, and one is really a "rumour" (whatever that mean) while the other is just a "suggestion".
This is why I do indeed take piss of this transfer window as no matter what site it is almost all - with a very few exceptions - are just made up; one story worse than the other. So the claims that some sites are less rubbish than others make little and, at times, no sense One can't make sense of non-sense.
But I do like the transfer thread...

Makes one wonder if the Wimmer rumours are actually true?
