Football

Another day

Still no signings.

But confirmation, mata won't be sold. Ozil wants to stay at Madrid. Di Maria wants to stay at madrid. Lamela spuds bid accepted. Kondogbia to Monaco.

FML

Cheer up! You've got Niklas Bendtner!

But Juan Mata and David Luiz look set to join Suarez in the almost signed column.

Have we outsourced all our medical services to WHL then?

They have outsourced their scouting department to us so possibly. It's all the rage you know

Fuck. Off. Mike.

Since when have LFC signed anyone noteworthy? Football is a small pond and talented players will be known by most scouts, whether they work for AA Ghent or Zenit St Petersburg.

Calm down, calm down, you're not even a Tottenham fan!
The pressure getting to you after 3 games?
As for the answer to your question, I can't even be bothered

Anyway - Eto'o is coming to the Bridge on a one year deal it seems. Chuffed with that.
No more excuses for not playing a striker Jose. Who will be sold off first, Moses or Ba?

Let's not bother loaning them out either, don't think that's beneficial for either club or player.

Sure everyone has seen this but this guy raises more valid points about the bald headed twat, Ivan Gazidis

No pies. No Pints. No programmes...

Dusan Tadic being linked with Everton now. I doubt it that they can afford him unless the Fellaini deal has been done.

I think you'd look great in them Clive.

Definitely would.

Ajax's Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen given permission to speak to Tottenham about move to White Hart Lane, says @bbcsport_david

So, when will Chelsea make their announcement?

I think you'd look great in them Clive.

Double Bagger

Double Baggy

You would be lucky

just one bag
over the head

With the Erik Lamela signing looking like its going through and the possibility of bringing in Eriksen as well, this from Daniel Harris of the guardian (who else) via Marcus christensen's transfer blog today..

Spurs are spending the Bale money very well, I think we can all agree. My colleague Daniel Harris points out the difference between what Spurs are doing now and what Manchester United did the summer they sold Cristiano Ronaldo:
IN: Gabriel Obertan (Bordeaux, £3m), Michael Owen (Newcastle, free), Antonio Valencia (Wigan, £16m), Mame Biram Diouf (Molde, undisclosed)

We've bought in definitely:
Soldado 26.6m, Paulinho 17m, Capoue 9m, Chadli 7m,
Possibly:
Lamela, 25.8m, Chiriches 9m, Eriksen 9-15m

Really feels like we've done some excellent business in this transfer window, and we've spent the money we're getting in for bale plus the excess from other transfers wisely, on talent that will grow with us, as Bale did...

Oh god.

I hate you.

You just had to post that before I go to bed.

All got a bit fractious at the end of the barca v atletico match. Barca still look beatable.

Great result for celtic last night

Lamela looks certain now and we're agreeing terms with Eriksen. We'll have a new team by the end of this window.

In case you hadn't noticed..

We have bought very well - probably the most organised transfer window I've seen from Spurs. None of the run-and-gun-get-5-guys-in-the-last-hours approach that we've seen in the past. Targeted, well planned and well executed. And it should be done with a couple of days left to go. That's a nice feeling - to not sit there hoping on the last day that something will get pulled out of the bag at the last possible moment.

So when will Real Madrid lodge their bid for Suarez?
Lunchtime tomorrow, just in time for ratface to submit a transfer request.

poor arsenal fans
seeing spurs sign all those players and having got none in themselves must cut them to the quick

why didn't arsen gazump a few spurs signings

None of them were young Frenchmen with some potential. OK. Maybe Capoue. But he's too established perhaps.

That's because 'Arry's not been involved...
