Tottenham in the Summer Transfer Window - 2014 Edition!

Thought I'd start it off a bit earlier this season so that we can get some good discussion going before it all kicks off.

Who needs to come in? Who needs to go? What will happen to our signings from last season? Will Sherwood be our boss? It'll all be here.

Unlike last season, there looks to be no chance of us getting top 4, so we won't have that to help us get anyone new in, though I do look forward to us buying at least 1 player off the back of a half decent run in the World Cup and then watch as they turn out to be rubbish.

Hopefully Roos laptop hasn't crashed as otherwise we could be in trouble without his long list of reliable twitter sources, leaving us to guess whats legit (or bs) before the signings happen (if any).

 

I think we can make an educated guess that Pritchard, Carroll and Holtby will be returning from their loans. BAE, on the other hand...

 

Don't worry, I'll be as reliable as ever!

 

Gomes will go when his contract expires and Friedel's now 282-years-old, so we'll need a new back-up keeper. That's assuming that Lloris stays or we'll need two keepers.
Assou-Ekotto will almost certainly leave and Rose clearly isn't good enough to be a regular starter, so we'll need a new left-back.
Other than that, everything's pretty much up for debate, I think.

 

Out: Gomes, Friedel, Naughton, Kaboul, Benny, Livermore, Dembele, Sigurdsson, Ade.

In: backup 'keeper, Richards, Caulker, Davies, Cigarini and Kiessling.

If you add in the Defoe money in I reckon it's doable.

 

Friedel? 3rd choice and coach, surely?

 

I'm going to put one out there that I don't expect to be very popular - Ashley Cole on a free.

No chance

 

perhaps a whole new defence whilst we're at it.

 

I get the feeling Capoue will want out, and I can't see us standing in his way when he does.

 

What I'd like:

Outs: Rose, Soldado, Gomes, Friedel (or retain as a player/coach), Paulinho, Gylfi (would be sad to see Gylfi go but I think a move is best for him), Carroll (big fan of his but don't think he'll get a look in).

Ins: One of Juan Bernat/ Criscito/ Coentrao, one of Jackson Martinez/ Luis Muriel/ Finnbogason, Caulker if one of our CB's go.

 

Eurgh, wash your mou-... Ermm fingers off PNP!

Isn't Evra on a free in the summer? I'd take him if any of our preferred targets are unobtainable.

 

Only if Redknapp was manager.

 

He preferred his namesake Joe.

No wonder we sacked him.

 

I thought we sacked him because he wanted Jonas Olsson?

 

If lloris goes as is being suggested in france then I think we should try for the cardiff keeper...he has been very good and he knows the league so wont need to settle.
Brad should be kept as a player coach.

I think siggy will go...along with either paulinio or sandro. dembele will also go along with capoue, chadli, benny, gomes, naughton, livermore and possibly rose.

 

Also I'd try for sagna from the goons...cant believe they are going to risk losing him on a free. Very odd as he is their best defender..

 

I don't see how a 'keeper can do that. There's only 3 of them as it is, it's either playing on another season or going into coaching full time, in my opinion.

 

Yeah, cause Gomes has been way too busy to coach
