Morning fellow Spurs fans .................
After all the doom and gloom on here of late what a smashing day yesterday was , finally we get a new player in , we have positive news of another and as expected get through in Europe
The one thing I don't quite understand is the loan signing of the young Spaniard from Juve , he's been playing 2nd division footie in Spain and is obviously not good enough for his Italian club so what's he doing over here ????
Perhaps I shouldn't be commenting as I've never heard of him before but that of course means nothing .....Are we signing him on a "view to a permanent move" thingy or is he coming for emergencies , will he actually add to what we already have ??????
Still we must not detract from what was a superb day for the mighty Spurs yesterday
CHEERS
C.O.Y.S
Yesterday was a great day for us

The only good reason I can see for the loan is that he is u21 so doesn't have to named in the 25 man squad. If this is the case I can't see many players leaving (i.e. Kranjcar, maybe Bentley even).

I dont understand it being a loan deal , usually when a player of that age goes out on loan it's to help his development for the benefit of the parent club , we have done this many times

I was hoping for a few better players, still some time to go

Morning Gents
I have to admit I cannot wait for the rsenal match can you imagine the hatred on their faces when Gallas and Ade both score in yet another famous victory for us

I think it's because he is 21 and doesn't have to be named in the 25 man squad, whereas Dos Santos is 22 and would have to be named now.

my understanding of the lad from juve is that we wanted to sign him,but juve didn't wanna sell.
but he can't get games for them,so all a bit confusing.....

Well as the Gunner said earlier we do have lots of footie to play and it'll be interesting to see if he plays in the Europa and the C.C ......tbh I'm not sure he'll get a sniff in the Prem

As stated above, he'll come in handy for Europa and the cups when the injuries and fixtures start to pile up.
I thought Gordon Strachan got it about right on the telly last night when he said Spurs are in a catch 22 with transfers. We have many good players but in order to improve on what we have means trying to source players on the next level, and we just can't meet their wage demands.
Underperforming strikers aside, I agree with him - we have got some very good players. If we can't get the very best then signing this lad & Adebayor ain't a bad bit of business in the short term imo.
