Remy, Huntelaar, Llorente, Sow…Make A Move Daniel
If we had bid £22m for Loic Remy at the start of the window before he’d scored two goals and destroyed Lille, I believe he would be a Spurs player now. Huntelaar has scored 27 goals in 28 games which is a fantastic strike rate even for the Bundesliga. He is no spring chicken but that is reflected in his rumoured £17m price tag. Llorente is a top player who can apparently be bought for around £20/£25m.

Levy Must Break Habit Of A Lifetime To Land Remy
The latest big name we are being linked with is Loic Remy. He is the most important player at his club, Marseille, who have qualified for the knockout stages of the Champions League and have designs on finishing high enough to qualify next season also. Achieving that and staying in this season’s competition as long as possible will be very lucrative, so how does it make financial sense to sell their best player at this time?

New Number 10 signing? Left Back on trial & There is one thing we need as well as players!
That is: Composure!! The comment made by the ESPN team after Andrey Arshavin blasted his umpteenth shot on goal against Leeds over the bar was something like: He needs a bit of Henry’s composure in front of goal. How true is that statement? One which…

Every now and again though, I hear or read that one of those ghastly people has the one redeeming feature that in those impressionable years as a wee child they made the right choice and started supporting Tottenham Hotspur. Celebrity Spurs fans.
Tevez To Spurs? Don’t Be Daft..But..
Breaking the bank with a huge signing on fee to supplement more reasonable wages for a player of Tezez’s calibre would make Spurs an incredibly tempting bet for the title.

On Returning Heroes and the Visit of Everton
First Paul Scholes and now bearded volleyball whizz, Terry Henry. Two mammoths of the game busting open the crypts of their Premiership careers for one last undignified waltz under the lights; with every possibility of coughing up something unsavoury into the laps of their adoring fans and making a mess of everything that was once [...]
