Tottenham Hotspur 08/09 Thread

[rooboy_88]

The season is less than 2 weeks away and it has been a busy transfer window so far with the additions of the likes of modric, gomes, dos santos and bentley.

Besides the unexpected exit of keane and the possibility of losing berbatov, we have gotten rid of some deadwood 2 sunderland and the ramos revolution is going about getting the mighty spurs into the top 4.

A thread for spurs fans from all teams especially the mighty roos and even plenty of banter with the scum, the odd bit of banter from a scouser gloating about keane and even the famous moomba who is a known admirer of the mighty spurs sorry moomba.

Modric will be good for you guys and that bloke from Russia who has been linked with Spurs (cant remember his name) would be a handy pickup. He has some insane skill.

 

[Borak]

The problem is Zenit want over the top fees for Asharvin. Spurs also made a bid for Pavlychenko but it was rejected. If Berbatov does leave (which looks unlikely now ) then they'de have to look for another striker.

It'll be interesting to see how they do this season, looks as if they've been playing an attacking 4-5-1 with Dos Santos behind the main striker during pre season.

Hopefully they take a few points off Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpoo

I was at a loss when i heard that Keene had left but then i think we got $16M for him didnt we?I hope the new boys can be superstars and get us back to the top 4 where we belong.
I dont want Berbatov to go,so why do you want him too?
I thought he has been good for us.

Good on you Rooboy_88 for making this thread

Less than 10 days to go now. You wouldn't think there would be that much more transfer activity but you never know with Spurs.

If Sir Alex wants Berbatov he better get cracking

 

[Boozeroo]

Is this thread going to promise much, with a lot of early quality posts before fading into obscurity??

Hopefully we can get corluka and strengthen our defensive stocks while attracting another striker to the club.

good 5-0 win against roma at the lane last night with a double from bentley and bent.

I still think we need the addition of a RB and a CB and a striker but overall its looking more positive as we begin our campaign against the boro this saturday.

CMON YOU SPURS !!!

Word is Berbatov's on his way to Old Trafford and Arshavin is heading to Spurs as well as another striker.

I think our pre season friendly's have looked very promising and we will beat Boro in front of about 10,000 people to kick our season off to a good start. Bent needs to score 20+ this season

 

[Homeless]

berbatov is gonna be a big loss tottenham fans better hope bent steps up and the club is successful in getting Barca Reject arshavin

Ronaldo is staying at Man U, so couldn't see Berbatov heading there which I think the Spurs were banking on. Will probably play somewhere else in Europe if he leaves.

 

[Souup]

Dont see what all this talk about getting Arshavin is all about. He's not a striker.. what we need is a striker, especially if Berbatov is sold. Would much rather Pavlyuchenko

 

[Homeless]

first up loss for the spurs. expectation weighing them down ?

 

[rooboy_88]

Same old spurs

When we have to resort to playing zokora and assou-ekotto as back flankers, we were alays going to be behind the 8 ball. bale and ohara offered so much more it wasnt funny.

In need of 2 defenders (RB,CB) and a striker.

 

[Shane Clayton]

Why cant spurs play with the hunger and desire North show

Bale should have started and we need Hutton and King like crazy

I don't think we will win many games playing a 4-5-1 either. Bent looked lost.

 

[rooboy_88]

Even though its the 2nd game of the season, you can it is a must win game for the club. To well this season we need to get at least 45 out of a possible 57 at home. We lost to sides like birmingham at home which was very costly.

Hopefully Ramos can bring us two more strikers and two defenders to add some depth and build a strong platform.

I can't see us adding four players. A defender and an out an out striker would be perfect though.

If we don't beat Sunderland at home, its not the end of the world. People forget we have a brand new midfield playing and it will take time for them to adapt. I still expect the 3 points though. Hopefully Bale plays this time

Bale should stop playing with his hair

disappointed that we scored and had all the momentum to let that spud cisse score.

Sooner berba leaves the better.

 

[rooboy_88]

Roman Palyuvchenko has been confirmed on the spurs website. dont know much about the lad but has been topping the russian premier league goal sheet for the last 2 yrs and has scored frequently at international level.

hopefully berba gets the flick now and we can get a few more additions before the end of the window.

He destroyed England in the Euro qualifiers and was excellent at the Euros

We needed a striker and we got one. So I'm happy with that. Hopefully we are respectable against Chelsea tonight. If we play like the last two weeks a 5-0 is on the cards.
