disagree myself.. if soldado gets injured i really dont think AVB is or would be happy with these two ( defoe ar ade )coming in....

defoe can get your goals but in examples like against palace at weekend where he missed a sitter to kill game off , thats the difference .. this spurs has to get ruthless especially when it comes to strikers.

I disagree. You can view it as Defoe missed a sitter or you can view it as Defoe created the chance for himself by running through defenders - more than Soldado managed by the way. Plus I don't see who you can buy that's going to be better/play second fiddle.

The Willian deal will go through. Also Liverpool refused to meet Anzhi's asking price.

So we are the only game in town.

Remember if not Spurs who will pay what we have agreed for the player and what the agent wants ? I can't see there are many options.
A certain club not too far away from us who are now almost certain to have CL this year for one

Defoe and Lennon will be going nowhere and I'm sure there's no issue with Willian coming.

Be a shame to see Bale go but we will have brought in very adequate replacements

“But I can see why Spurs fans would be excited about Soldado coming because I am excited myself about the prospect of playing with him.
NOT gonna happen.​
“He is a fantastic striker – sharp around the box and hungry to score goals.
“For me, it’s not a case of thinking, ‘A top-class forward is coming in, maybe I’m not going to play.’ At the end of the day, I work hard and look after myself, so that I can give myself the best chance of bringing goals to the team.”

Notorious moaner at not getting games. No way is he gonna be happy not playing with the WC coming up. He's gonna mope around and unsettle the squad and whinge in the media.

Eject.

Nedelev done say Marca. I reckon this guy could be the dark horse of our 1st team squad. I know he's cover for RS9 but looks the business and only 20.

Remember who Willian's agent is. Kia Jaroobchan. The guy is a snake.

Anthing is possible here. Hope Im wrong but wouldnt be surprised if this all fell through.

i just worry about if soldado is out injured and the whole hold up play option and giving the defence a break .. defoe is totally incapable of playing this role but yeah he created chance for himself and thats what he is good at but im looking at the overall team effect which is what it will have to be when bale leaves.

soldado will get us 20 goals this year definte . if defoe was our main striker, would he get 20 ? no chance imo. there is better all round quality strikers out there to take defoe and adebayor place. its tricky one alright but i would not lose sleep over getting rid of both and bringing one in..
