Hands up who thinks Berbatov looks like Andy Garcia?
So yeah, Duff eh? That seems to be the talk of the town this morning. £11m is a fair old whack but not unjustly so. Anyone who saw a Duff driven Blackburn take us apart on the last day of the season 3 or 4 years ago to the tune of 4-0 will be in no doubt of the nobbly Irishman’s abilities.
Well aren’t we just linked with everyone right now? Lot of names, lot of deals but it may surprise you to learn that it’s the Sorin link that’s got my blood pumping. Yes, he’s a dirty Argie. Yes, he’s got a hairdo like a Klingon with bedhead and at the age of 30 you wouldn’t exactly call this move part of Spurs’ youth policy but it’s hard to ignore the captain of probably the most inventive side seen in Germany this year.
So I wake up this morning, head pounding after a short, sharp Stella beating, guilty from the dirty chicken I ate, to read that Fergie’s now in for Defoe as well. Can’t the red faced Scotsman leave us alone? He’ll be in for Lennon next with Ledley Dawson to follow. He won’t be satisfied until he’s shipped the whole bloody squad up there. Why doesn’t he just apply for Martin Jol’s job instead of all these expensive transfers?
I love a good transfer; bad one’s too so long as they don’t involve us. Well, unless of course that means the off loading of Tottenham detritus onto some poor sucker of a club. But you get what I mean. As far as day to day footy news goes it doesn’t get any better than the January Sales and the Summer Window but unfortunately right now that windows wide open and there’s a nasty chill in the air.
