Is Roberts that good then?
Feels like he's been one of the most hyped English youths forever now. I'd say for his age-group he is that good. Obviously there's a big difference between that and being good enough at pro level. Though it would certainly make me very very excited.

Wow ! Looks like a storm has blown over in last 12 hours...One thing is certain
Do not doubt @JJetset - He got it right with Bale, he has again got it right with Toby.

Toby or not Toby - that is the question is so apt.
Levy flying to Spain to talk to Athleti also makes sense. It's possible that both clubs could have been going through the clauses & make sure where each stand.

We have committed with Toby 100% - If we do get him, its no question he will be in first XI.
Spurs are all about drama. Levy likes a challenge. If Levy is committed, I have no doubts deal will be over the line.

Am I missing something? I thought JJ has repeatedly said TA won't happen?

He said he didn't think it would happen unless "it all blows over", which makes a lot of sense now.
Just had a look through the RO and update 77 is:


Q: Are Spurs going to get Alderweireld?

JJetset: no

These are the tweets (from 1 July):

@SuperSpurs1985: loads of reports still saying we are in for TA? Not the case?

JJ: unless something has changed I would say it's not on. Maybe it's his agent trying to create competitive tension#justsaying

‏@SuperSpurs1985: cheers for replybit gutted by that to be honest, had a good season at Soton and the fee seems reasonable. He asking for too much?

JJ: sorry not for Twitter Hey it may all blow over & still happen in 6 weeks time but currently it's a no

Roberts is a dribbler, is he then the little cabbage in question?
Well the Cabbage Patch Kids were created by a chap called Roberts. And Fulham do have a second promising brassica-themed youngster in Cauley(flower) Woodrow.

His main ITK was a question. "Toby or not Toby" - in hindsight, like we are pondering over the move - whether to go ahead knowing there may be legal issues or not go ahead. He did say no, but he also said if situation changes, then may be. Last ITK is 'its complicated'.

JJ couldn't give more because of legal complication - so he said for non-commercial reasons, it may not happen.

When he first said it a week ago, I'm pretty sure he then said it was just a joke.
