Itchen_block4 Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 I have it on good authority that we have enquired about Gio Dos Santos from Spurs. Nigel thinks the out of favour winger/attacking midfielder could really add some quality at a knockdown price as Spurs no longer want the player. It seems as though he's been around a while, but he's still only 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 Spurs want 6millish apparently, not a bad player but hasn't ever been given the chance at Spurs I don't think. He did well at Ipswich so you can't throw the ''He's not suited to English football'' argument at it. I think in the right environment and with regular football he'd be class.

SuperSAINT Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 Can't believe he's still only 23. How much did he cost Spurs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KelvinsRightGlove Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 I'd certainly be happy with this, should it materialise. Talented, tricky and whilst he has moaned to the press a couple of times - it has only been about wanting to play more. Considering how little playing time he has been given under Redkrapp I'm surprised he hasn't thrown a lot more full-blown hissyfits. Spurs supporting mate of mine rates him v highly. Before the 'Tottenham Reject' tag comes out - lets not forget bout 'Arrys tendency to have favourites. Or how he treated Bale at first, wasn't he set to go out on loan to Forrest a few years back? Only got in the side due to BAE getting injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the saint in winchester Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 I'm not sure Harry will want to talk to us after we have left his loan star in the reserves for 6 months. That guy has been such a star for us that I can't even remember his name! I'll edit my own post as I soon as it comes to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPTCount Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 Harry's stuck in the 70s, he only uses a 12 man squad dos Santos wud be a quality signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kraken Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 Decent player; potentially a replacement for Guly on the right, unless we changed our favoured formation and went with him in the #10 role and one up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derry Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 Jeez £6m for a player Spurs don't want. Anyone would think we were QPR with a death wish. Rodriguez, Hooper, Rhodes or similar are better bets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sentry Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 God I hope we get him. Quality player. I mentioned him on the HCDAGJFU thread a while ago. I think if we could only sign one player (in our capabilities) this year, it would be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sentry Posted 23 May, 2012 Share Posted 23 May, 2012 Oh yeah, for those who doubt his quality (worse than Rhodes,,, ha!) ,, he came second only to Muller for young player at world cup 2010. He was quality in that tournament. Fore whatever reason 'arry does not like him. For me thats good enough to bring him in! Any one who arry does not like, he has no judgement in players at all, just look at Darren Bent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sadly came to us as a way of getting rid of any Bale sell on money. Falque was another that we paid but didn't use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
