That the Giovani Lo Celso to Tottenham transfer could still happen is hardly a priceless gem of information.
However, a source close to Tottenham tells the Harry Hotspur blog that Maurico Pochettino recently messaged his fellow Argentine personally to tell the 23-year-old that he was wanted to work as a central playmaker. To provide the creative bite – when Christian Eriksen left.
What Pochettino could not guarantee however – was that the Dane would 100% be sold.
What this information immediately serves to do is to tell us just how seriously Levy takes Pochettino. It’s difficult to sufficiently praise Levy enough here, because since he took the helm, he’s never made any good decisions.
Stone cold loser Levyologists must take note here – if Tanguy NDombele & Lo Celso both sign and both flatline, Levy cannot be scalded, because for once the tiresome bitch did as he was told.
Backing the manager is what successful clubs do. For better or worse. That’s show business, baby.
Fingers crossed then that we can offload the Dane and ship in someone who genuinely wants to fight.
‘Fingers crossed then that we can offload the Dane and ship in someone who genuinely wants to fight.’ CL final and he showed no fight. Good riddance.
Was speaking with some of the romanian boys (board water farm pitches) and they say hagi he is “bun, fucking da da” must mean blindingly ream in Romanian. Had a little YouTube look and yes he’s “bun” in his clips. G popescu, llie D Ave a word.
Recurring theme as I peruse the THFC news now. That’s right, all the bids we have put in are about on average 40%below the asking price. Now I k ow that there’s always haggling involved in these deals, but that strikes me as alot of haggling still to be resolved. I got a bad feeling about this
I guess a broken watch is right at least twice a day – I am hoping that it’s at Tanguy O’clock and Lo Celso O’clock, (I’ll leave the good Sid Trotter to explain the attraction of these two Irish brothers).
But if we do this bit of business can we say that Levy has come round to at least starting to back his manager? Is this a capitulation from the arse-end of the barrel Poch has Levy bent over or an evolution driven by the realisation that success makes more money than failure?
Regardless of which, I must say I am surprised that we are all suspending our belief so soon; even it seems our good host HH. I mean we have been here before folks; just because we made the 4 and the CL final, that does not mean that Levy has actually given up his fight for footballing entropy. But as Spurs supporters, some of us over many years; we cling to any hope with a resilience unknown to other group of supporters (except maybe Newcastle or the Cameroon women’s team).
But let’s be honest: we have had serious names in the frame almost every year and ended up empty handed usually with some N’once from the Boonies as a consolation and whilst this does look positive, there are reports today that the business is far from done and tho’ the source is suspect (Mail and Mirror), it raises the spectre of Levy at work again.
Aulas has apparently said it’ll be 72 Mill to get this across the line. Now this could be a threat as he supposedly said “in a week” and if that quote is a few days old, it would support a previous report that said Lyon wanted to get the deal across the line by 30 June before they close their accounts.
Can anyone believe that Levy would risk the whole deal to pressure a lower buy price inside the Lyon deadline? Of course, we all would: this is Levy all over, still a sad victim of transfer business Tourette’s; he simply can’t help himself!
Reports also say he has only offered 45Mill, some 53Mill others closer to the 63Mill – whatever it is the deal is not done and is eminently fuck-upable, especially in the hands of the supreme master of fuck-upability.
If Levy pulls these rabbits out of the hat, we will of course salute the success, but I suspect many of us will still reserve judgement on the methodology and proximity to the line being sailed. But nothing is impossible, if Poch can bring the best out of Sissoko, well maybe he’s game to have a tilt at Levy!
As someone said in an earlier blog, let’s see them with the shirt on first!
Aulas is a lying toad. The deal is basically done and at around £65m – he’s having his medical with us/has had/whatever. Several ITKs on another site (SC) have confirmed this. One of whom is saying if it doesn’t happen now then youre talking ‘Willian-style’ levels of shiteness.
Aulas ALWAYS does this. He has said things aren’t close when they totally are with several big name transfers including Lloris, (Njie), Lacazette, and recently Ferland Mendy to Real Madrid. All the transfers went through a matter of hours after he said they weren’t close.
I reckon it will take about 65m + add ons for Domby’s signature. Levy has met his nemesis in Aluas but apparently they made up after Levy tried to lowball on Loris a few years ago.
Baldy, you aren’t going to knick quality players for knock down prices. If you build a ‘world class’ stadium for the team to play in then you need to step it up, otherwise kindly fuck off an leave it to somebody who understands the concept of genuine sporting ambition…
Just checking sumfink………..
Eriksen is just not the kind of player that will run through brick walls for anyone, hard working enough but rarely prepared to take a situation by the scruff of the neck. I don’t see him as a massive loss, although a quality player on his day…
Come on Levy, be BRAVE….
Tottenham hotspur ladies (no longer spurs ladies) need to sign that lucky bronze girl. Levy double her money?.
Yes, he’s at fc viitorul. Sevilla are the biggest threat to his signature. Should get him he’s a player.
Ndombele is not a done deal. The Lyon president is as difficult as Levy and he hates him for the Loris transfer. I vote for Puskas as Kane’s back up and we might as well sign Hagi as well. The German under 21 keeper is very good.
The Italian Army were bigger fighters than Eriksen.
Sounds sublime!
This is the home of common sense mon brav!
Apparently Hagi could be available for as little as 2M,as I think he is still at a Romanian club.Agree he would be worth getting as well.
What’s funny Lilywhite?
He’d be a good young backup for Kane and Palermo wouldn’t want a fortune.
Used to visit a website called Sublime back in the day when I had a 56k modem…..
Eddie – just the way you said it made me laugh…?..
Good job visa gonna do the naming rights. Cis if that cunt thinks bidding 45m euro for someone who’s priced rightly or wrongly at 80 is gonna get it done he’s gonna need a credit card alright. This all stinks to hell and got all the hallmarks of another game of levy charades. Sorry, the lads been took for a tour, said he wants to come, met the manager, and yet the one fucking but that always gets in the way is when Satan gets involved. If he screws this one up he should be lynched
“spits coffee out laughing”….?
Eriksson has been good for us but like Bale and others after him, you can’t blame him for wanting to leave to win trophies and earn the money he’s worth.
Manure is my bet if RM don’t change their mind or can’t get their main targets, at the moment is like this move to happen as CE looks jaded.
Thank goodness Mr Bungle has finally accepted his limitations, ie he’s shit at anything football, and handed over to pooch. Should’ve done it years ago. Levy is heard from too much at Spurs, at no other club is a chairman involved in transfers to his level. He must be a control freak. Finally the penny appears to have dropped with him. Well done for finally coming to your senses.
No red in VISA so all good….
Not sure Lo Celso is a fighter. And who would win between him and Sissoko.
However, the signs are good that he’s coming. It’s there in black and white. His name is an anagram of ‘coo …. sell’
Like Eddie mentioned on last page, nothing about Ndombele. In fact still even now nothing from either club at all has come out officially. Far as is known, no other club has bid so its a tap in really…..surely? Only unconfirmed reports though up to now.

I don’t think Eriksen’s heart is at Spurs, if it ever was. He had a poor season and never turned up for the Champions League title. His technique has never been in question but he has always lacked spine. Best to let him go. Sell Deli Alli whilst you’re at it!
Get Georgi Puscas signed up now you little wanker.
naming rights – VISA
The problem the dumb dumbs have is they can’t see you can support the club and not the regime. As regular readers will know, the Prince of darkness is a hate figure in my house, but if he goes and dies the right thing by the manager then I’ll say fair enough. Equally if they turn out to be duds ill point the finger at the manager, but it would be nice to have the chance
Visa as the new stadium sponsor…who cares? Its what are they going to pay, how much? No point having a worldclass sponsor paying pennies on the pound.
Have you been hacked?? 2 posts in a row claiming Levy is not at fault…wow!! lol
I hope the nay sayers see posts like this and understand (like the rest of us) that you are not Anti Levy to be Anti Levy, you are Anti a guy/company that treats our football team as a balance sheet and that is all.
