I am not saying he did. I didn't see the signature. All i said was reliable sources on twitter and media people said he signed already.

DD12 tells me that Vardy has already signed.

Maybe he has, maybe he hasn't, but don't like how it looks right now.

He definitely hasn't yet. It's June 8th.

Wenger signing a quality striker early in the transfer window? Has that ever happened in the past decade? As of now (until it's really a done deal) I have to believe those Vardy to Arsenal reports are fake. :lol:

Christoph Kramer(Leverkusen) will join Borussia Mönchengladbach and sign a five year contract.
Transfer fee is believed to be around €15M.

Is Vincent Janssen any good? Looks like Spurs will be signing him for £12m. Can't say I've ever watched the lad but his goalscoring record at AZ is excellent.

i feel like with few weeks of training i could have an excellent goalscoring record in the dutch league

True enough. If Jozy Altidore can score a bunch of goals in that league you could too.

Still, we have the likes of Suarez, Zlatan, etc. who plied their trade there too. It's a calculated risk, but £12m isn't too much of a gamble either way for someone who will most likely be backing Kane up.

Production in Netherlands is inflated, but that is undoubtedly one of the premier schools of offensive football.

i guess it is a good sign he does have a solid record in international football, both youth and seniors.

I cant believe you are asking this question. Let me play a striker in that league, i'll score minimum 10 goals.

Just going off of his highlights, he had some very nice finishes that were the result of good skill, rather than poor defending/keeping so that seems hopeful. Our success rate with the Dutch league has been pretty good recently so I'd be cool with the move.

I thought so too, but if you watched the Scoutnation one then there was some godawful defending mixed in there too. I like that he can finish proficiently with both feet, and he's got a physical build that seems like it could suit the PL.

And you're right, former Eredivisie players have been successful at Spurs. Van der Vaart, Dembele, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Eriksen, etc. No strikers off the top of my head, though.

He was solid during his loan spell with us, but hard to say he was successful at Spurs overall. Great bloke mind, Spurs through and through, down to his slagging off of Sol Campbell.

Even threw scissors at Ibrahimovic once.

People who think to be capable of scoring some goals in a pro league is just ridicolous.
I play against a couple of very old pro (mediocre at best in top league) and simply they are a different categories than average guys.

Janssen is a good player but I don't think that the Spurs have time to wait him like they did with Lamela.

Dont know whats crazier , Leicester offering 20M pounds for Deeney or Watford rejecting it......

bbms · Post #1338 » by **bbms** » Thu Jun 9, 2016 6:07 pm

ANY truth to those Kovacic to Dortmund reports?

I know they tried to sign him back in 2014 when he was at Inter.

IMO perfect fit for Tuchel's midfielder. 90%+ passer with above average dribbling/shooting/defensive effort.

I don't know, we have more than enough Players for that spot. Would only make sense if we sell Nuri and Leitner.
