Wouldn't be a January Transfer window if we weren't going to buy someone who Spurs wanted on the last day

A little follow up for ya. Redknapp has confirmed on SSN that Begovich doesn't want to come (not suprising really) so its between you and Stoke now.

If anyone's interested in the latest Tottenham stuff, Pletikosa failed his second medical so looks like we're after Loach. Hutton to Sunderland on loan. Naughton on loan to Boro. Bentley not likely to go to West Ham.

Don't see why Arsenal would need him. Is he level at the level of Almunia? (Well, better). We have enough cover..

No idea, but just passing on what i've read. Particularly as you said you want a new keeper.

Wenger said in his post-match interview yesterday that he won't be signing anyone, whether he was telling the truth or not i don't know, but it doesn't look likely there will be any signings for Arsenal.

I don't know what he says in Almunia. I guess it's hard to see where a replacement will come from. Hugo Loris is my preferred choice. Good keeper and young.

Well, Keane to Celtic on loan according to SSN. That was unexpected.

The window is still open up there until midnight.

**Damien** · 01-02-2010, 17:21

Crap. I was hope we should sell Almunia for some magic beans and either replace him or just put the beans in the starting 11 and see what happens.

I did see one of your 2nd string keepers (Mannone I think) and did look good from what I saw.

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapptold Sky Sports news: "The chairman rang me an hour ago asking me what I thought about it. Nothing sorted yet but it probably will happen. Robbie Keane's too good a player not to be starting. I think it's a move that appeals to him. He's a big Celtic man and to play for them -he's a bit like Roy Keane, he dreams of playing for Celtic one day. And we're strong in that position up front."

Wasn't the same thing said when he joined Liverpool last season?

Begovic went to Stoke in the end.

Yes, I thought that this morning too when I heard that

Hopefully the same end result after 6 months.

Does seem like a bit of a panic buy to me. Gambling a huge amount of money (Scottish football wise anything over 50p is big money right now) on a third choice striker to try and overturn a 10 point and 20 goal deficit.

I suppose 'he' can't lose out seen as he's dropped in the pecking order at Spurs.
