Who from the current bottom 5 teams battling for relegation could you see at Spurs?

Blackburn:

Yakubu - Powerful, good eye for goal. Back up striker.
Hoilett - Pacey, can cut through defences. Back up winger.

Wolves:

Jarvis - Back up winger.
Fletcher - Back up striker. Powerful. Rather talented.

Bolton:

Bogdan - Back up keeper.
Ricketts - Decent full back. Back up.

Wigan:

Moses - Certainly one for the future.

I wonder about possibly Watson & Di Santo at Wigan
Possibly Formica and Rochina at Blakburn added to the list above I can't see anyone improving us yet.
Hoilett would seem to be the best shout.

Hoillet or Moses are good options for wingers. Hopefuly we could get one and then another of a higher quality (Hazard?)

Fletcher from Wolves is a possibility as 3rd striker. Better than Pav and Saha.

Zamora is the only other we could consider.

None would be considered 1st team starters but good squad options.

I'd definitely take Matt Jarvis, he can do well on both sides and seems to be the only Wolves player with any fight in him these days.

I'd take Hoilett too, of course.

Anyone else? Not sure...

That O'Hara from Wolves would be good midfield cover...

But seriously, can't see Yakubu wanting to be 3rd or 4th striker, Hoilett maybe, but I think Andros Townsend will be as good, and more likely to spend next season on the bench for us

An arrogant thread if I ever saw one..lol

Not really. Seemed like an honest question to me as opposed to "who can we cherry pick when they go down".

Not to mention it is only theoretical.

EDIT: Heh, sorry. Back on topic: Hoillett I would say

Would only really want Hoilett if any of them. Also Bogdan is doing well now but he hasn't exactly looked solid all season.

Hoilett would be a good player for us. Other than him, Cisse is a talented striker who could do a job for us if he could stay on the field - probably too similar to Saha though. Kightly at Wolves could be a good squad player if he could stay fit. Fletcher is the one I'm not sure about. He's done really well at Wolves, but is he good enough for us? I'm not sure.

I agree that Hoilet would be a decent addition for the squad but is it necessary if we go for Hazard. Regarding Fletcher I think he would be a very good back up target man for us. it was only a few seasons ago that Real Madrid were scouting him.

Fletcher will be in the Premier League next season. Wolves won't. Wouldn't be surprised if he went to an Everton or Villa where he'd be first or second choice, but I'd happily have him as an option... Shouldn't cost too much, either...

Martin Olsson maybe as a backup wide man. He's bloody swift anyway. Hoilett is theobvious choice from BBurn.

Bogdan maybe from Bolton.

Moses as backup possibly from Wigan. Di Santo - a player who looks like he should be much better. Still quite young but can't hit a cow's arse with a banjo so not much use as a striker.

Fletcher, would be very happy if he was part of our squad but he'll be starting regularly for a prem club next season. Very good movement and a finisher and got some size to him. Jarvis, not a huge fan of him tbh.

Would take one of Hoilett, Jarvis or Moses. Would provide good back up.

That is all. Bogdan wouldn't be a great back up, I'd rather have Cudicini, experienced and reliable. We just need a world class keeper now to go with our experienced bunch.

Hoilett
Jarvis

All 3 potential starters but more likely they would end up as squad fillers
