A Journalist I know believed Levy was in Bilbao today or yesterday, my memory is terrible, certain he said today though.

Can't vouch for his credibility as he works the London beat which I don't ever really concern myself with so take with a large pinch of salt but reluctantly passing on as it may be slightly good news if true?

Maybe a real credible ITK can confirm it.
Something like that was mentioned by one or two people today. Can't recall the specifics. I know you're not a Spurs fan, but so you know, it's nearing the time in the window where Levy goes racing around Europe with a wheelbarrow full of cash looking for last second VDVs. The "Levy is in..." stories start cropping up around now. Thanks for sharing though

So it looks like Dawson will start against Newcastle.
guess i should go change my fantasy football team around then :whistle:

so if we're not after M'villa, and no interest in Moutinho, where does that leave us t in terms of Modric's replacement?
no interest in moutinho? unless ive been dreaming i thought it was quite the opposite!!!

there are some other options out there though, dembele is the first that springs to mind
and im sure AVB has some other lesser known (and cheaper) options in mind that haven't been mentioned by the press or ITKs. I remember hearing he had something like a 20 name list of players hed been scouting & liked, im sure there was more than just moutinho, oscar, and m'villa on there in regards to a modric replacement :cool:

Take your pick from one of Jenas, Hudd or Glyfi.

I knew we would miss Modric but not as much as that little scenario would mean.

Like moving from a luxury country pile in to a 2 bed ex-council terraced.

In Levy we trust? If things stay the same regarding our transfer dealings in, well, my trust levels will be dropping! It's ok though, today we are being linked with a Chelsea reject and the worst of Portugals midfield trio. Look out Champions League here we come!!!!!

What did I miss that would say that we aren't after M'Vila or Moutinho? Was it new ITK?

Thanks in advance.

Here is a smiley face to show that I mean no harm and would prefer not to be neg repped for simple questions, which is becoming common -> :love:

Interesting read. Actually if you look through the quotes AVB doesn't actually confirm he has ended his interest in Moutinho, this looks to be the journos interpretation. He actually said:

"No, it will be very difficult," Villas-Boas said, when asked whether he wants to sign Moutinho. "It's very difficult as the level of expectation of Porto would be very difficult. I have experience of Porto and it is a club that sells expensive but they sell a good product.....

Which very carefully doesn't sa he has ended all interest!
