Welbeck to Spurs?
Posted at
"It looks set to be a familiarly busy deadline day at White Hart Lane as Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino tries to put the finishing touches to his squad. While there are likely to be a number of outgoings - Lewis Holtby, Sandro and Aaron Lennon the most high-profile candidates - bigger news is a potential incoming, with Manchester United forward Danny Welbeck a definite target. I'm told by one source that discussions between Tottenham, United and the player's representatives took place until 01:00 BST today so that is certainly one to watch as the 23:00 BST deadline looms."

fook....

It’s unlikely we’re signing any striker other than Welbeck. So if Soldado is off, that seems like a fairly raw deal. Also Poch has said Soldado is staying – and he seems more trustworthy than Uncle ‘Arry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm very cynical especially after the Bale deal to Real where he and the club lied about his injury (same to be said about Ade under AVB)

I wouldn't be surprised if Soldado left either on loan or perm

Reckon Soldado is going personally but hope not and he's given a real go.

Welbeck is pretty nailed on now

"It would seem Poch thinks most positions need major surgery *sigh*. Ah well – another couple of ‘transitional’ seasons ahead boys."

Either you believe this, that the squad has to be purged every time a new manager with new "ideas" appears, because the current group are fundamentally flawed in some way.

Or you think like how Levy appears to : that the squad is generally good enough and the manager/coaches are therefore at fault for not getting the best out of them.

I will cry if we get Welbeck

Reminds me when we signed Pav and Frazier Campbell when we were desperate

Soldado out, Holtby out, Sandro out

Welbeck in

Flashy can I get a few words to sum up Welbeck please?

Innnnnnnn west Philadelphia born and raised....

So even Welbeck on loan (with Man Utd paying his wages) would not be acceptable ??

I'm guessing he played on a playground?

Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool?

@HotspurRelated: .@BBCWiltshire understands Swindon are to sign Tottenham striker Jonathan Obika, for a fee around £200,000. #THFC

That's good on Obika - saw him on loan at Brighton last year and he was bobbins

Obika pay's for Adey's two weeks wages then

Can't see us shifting Paulinho, so he's staying

So it's between Sandro and Holtby

Paulinho

Flashy hit me with some knowledge, we ain't getting rid of him

We've spent £24.6m according to SSN

Spurs all over this deadline day.

Micah Richards is close to a move to Fiorentina

Upsets me, decent player, just bad injuries
