Nor me, however I would assume that a new contract will come with a year extension and that will increase the cost. If he signs a new deal I would hope his transfer value becomes moot anyway assuming that the last 12 months are an indication of where we are heading and not just a (massive) blip.

It must have been the other season that shall remain nameless. How did they win the league then with s**** like Clayton Blackmore and Brian Mclair.

I think Cantona instilled a belief that they could get over the line in his first season and scored vital goals to that end. He can f*** off whilst he is f***ing off though as can anyone who mentions that f***ing year again.

I just can't get over the fact that we have managed to get this lad from PSG. He's the sort of player I anticipated us buying when we got back in the Champions League, his calmness under pressure, his reading of the game and his dominance in the air. In short, he's f***ing boss.

I'm in 100% now, 3 or 4 players short of a title challenge. We've got some boss young players.

Apart from the 10 minutes where they completely lost us after half time I would agree with that. Once they had sussed that they now had a man spare in midfield when they only had 3 in the middle we didn't get a kick until Wenger 'shored up' thus bringing right back into it if Suarez could pass the ball to an unmarked Sturridge. I thought the 3-5-2 got the best out of what we had available. Arsenal just have far better players in the middle of the park. You don't face a side with players as good as that every week. 2 pts a game so far this season. Carry that on and we will be in the mix.

Play them without Flamini - tick

Been used incorrectly many many more times based on that wiki link.

Most interesting thing in this thread. I never knew that was what it was intended to mean. I doubt it has ever been used correctly on here.

Criticism for Cissokho makes you laugh yet you are dropping Skrtel because ?????

To put that in context though, Jermaine Defoe (who they had just re-signed) was out for 3 months with an injury, Spurs were lying 2pts off bottom (West Brom) in 14th place, so they signed Keane back on deadline day. Keane then scored 5 goals in 14 games and they finished in 8th 19pts ahead of West Brom and 17 clear of relegation. In that context it was a brilliant bit of business.

Who signed Van Der Vaart, Modric, Vertongen, Berbatov? The last few years they have built a CL squad, problem is there are now 5 teams, 6 if you include us with CL squads. Spurs have been very shrewd pre this summer, this summer the jury is still out.

"At the time my natural instinct was to react and defend myself. However, I decided against it as I did not know if he was carrying any weapon and might come at me again" Course it f***ing was you cowardly lying t***.

It's great to be on the outside laughing in at this kind of ridiculous pony for a change. Vintage Hodgson.

I will have Demba Ba. He'd be great cover for Sturridge/Suarez.
