January Transfer Window 2010/2011 Season Rumours/Signings

Would be nice to see Beckham back in the premier league, if only for a couple of months. I think he could be a great assest to Spurs and I can imagine him being a big motivational player for the rest of the team.

Theres nothing quite as motivating as a guy coming for a part time summer job without a care in the world who will make 2-3 times the average first team salary based purely on his name rather than how good he's been.

Beckhams good, but he's not great, I highly doubt he stays back after practice for a couple hours every day like he did when he was 16-25. He won't really help Bale/Lennon that much as they are ALL about pace and "doing" their player while Beckham was always about fantastic wing play with a full back, in general Lennon/Bale just can't play like that, not least because when they get going theres no fullback who keeps up and its just not their game. I sincerely doubt if Lennon's been practicing with many top coaches for a decade that 3 months with Beckham will turn him into a decent crosser.


More than anything it just screams of Redknapp, a big name, rather than the player they need, a huge wage to attract said player, and the beginning of the end for the financial stability of the club.

Niko, Modric, Bale, Lennon, Bentley, Keane, VDV who can/all do play on the wing frequently, 3 of those are already very unhappy(keane, niko, Bentley) and Beckham really isn't better than any of them. Bring him in, on 120k a week, how much do you think VDV, Bale, Pav, Defoe, Modric will want come their next contracts? Sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Would be better to see Beckham at a midtable club where he'd both, play more, look better and not cause issues.

He kind of has a point though, there isnt one club Redknapp has been at where he hasnt played apart in bringing it to financial ruin.

Apart from how it's Levy who is keen to do the deal. Levy never breaks his wage structure, so for him to do so now, you can bet it's been well thought out.

Ryan Babel's just confirmed that Liverpool have signed Elijero Elia, but knowing Bable it's still possible to be a lie lol

I cannot find anything on his twitter site, he may of deleted it. Could you post the message?

I'd love him on our left wing, watched him a few times last season and looks better than Nani at times. Hope it's true :)

Beckham is actually in his final year of his contract at LA, if I remember rightly.

He has also only played I think possibly 20 games for them in the past two seasons, due to the AC Milan loan and then being injured.

LA haven't actually won a title whilst he has been there, they've come close and Beckham has certainly raised the profile of the MLS but I'm sure that LA fans, and the club will want him to help deliver what they bought him for and what he said he was going to do there.

There was also a quote not so long ago of him saying he'd only return to United if he came to England, but how much truth there is in that who knows.
 
Pienaar has already signed for Spurs according to Graham Hunter (Sky Sports La Liga master mind, go down to 31st December). Will be interesting to see if / how he plays on Wednesday, because the transfer window officially starts tomorrow / tonight at 00:00... nervous times!!! :eek:

I hope we got more than this rumoured £1.5 million for him that's been floating around, if not then I'm going to be so angry!

I don't really rate him that highly but £1.5m seems ridiculously cheap, he's easily like a 7/8m kinda player? :/

Yep easily that much, problem is he either signs for a foreign team now on a free, or goes to anyone on a free in the summer. So best option since we won't pay him what he wants is to sell him now and looks like Spurs are pushing for getting him for near enough nothing. A complete mess. :(

Would be a decent buy for Spurs for that money. We need as many bargains as we can get, we simply cannot match the spending power of the teams we're trying to finish above.
