The words anterior cruciate ligament operation tend to suggest this is either a non-starter or a major gamble

Isn't Walcott having / had the same operation?

I had ACL surgery its not the be all or end all, mine was all through the NHS so took a while but with the help Premier league players get I am sure he's on the road to recovery as we speak.

I find it strange that clubs are supposedly trying to buy players when they don't have managers.

Managers don't buy the players.

Well Tottenham managers certainly don't.

Hopefully it's not another pre-season of buying loads of players followed by seeing if we can make a team of them, or if we just bought a bunch of midfielders again

Surely they will want some input though. I would not like to take over a club where the team is made for me. It doesn't make sense.

My company are trying to do it right now. They want me to ask two ex colleagues to join our hacking team as managers. We don't have a Director yet as he has left. The 2 ex colleagues will not come until they know who the Director is.

Clubs need to let managers buy the players.

No thank you to Rodriquez

No chance Levy will sanction the purchase of a player returning from a major knee injury unless he is ridiculously cheap, and rightly so imo.

Decent PL player, but would he improve us? There must be better out there for less money imo. Would be slightly underwhelmed if this happened at the prices being touted.

To be fair, Demba Ba was supposedly blighted by a knee injury - hasn't caused any problems yet.

As long as the op is a success and the player is diligent about his rehab and recovery (including rest periods) it's not a problem.

I like him but I think we could do better, although I wouldn't say no if we got another striker in. Think he'd put more effort in than Adebayor.

If we want effort buy Kevin Phillips. I want a player that suits our play and understands the managers tactics.
