Ryan Babel

[basskadet]

SSN are claiming that Ryan Babel is flying via helicopter to London to discuss a £9m move to Spurs. Babel is not the big name player we all wanted but, nonetheless, he is someone I've always thought would be great at Spurs. Had we signed him from Ajax before Liverpool I'm sure he'd be a great player now. Rafa ruined him but if Harry can inspire him then we could be onto a winner.


Duo battle for Babel

[spursman18]

Yes, he will be a good signing for us....dont write him off yet people....he wasnt used properly at liverpool and hardly got a fair run in the team.

[Dancubus]

My concern is whether or not he'll improve our team. I am not convinced by the £9 million price tag...

[The Sundance Yid]

AHAHAHA... Babel's helicopter is going to West Ham. Christ just when we thought it couldn't get any worse.

Not to be overly dramatic but this would be a terrible move. Liverpool would likely demand Pavs going the other way and this would do nothing but strengthen Pool while weakening our squad. Even if we played him in his natural position, is he really a step up from what we have?

[spursman18]

Everyone thank me, just as i typed my bit out i heard that news.......what a funny window.

[DaveYid]

Babel's odds on SkyBet suddenly swinging towards West Ham, thank f'ck!

They're getting Cole.

They're getting Cole.

Perfect! I saw somewhere else they might be in for Marco Borrielo? I would love to see either at Liverpool.

If they're getting either of those, it'll be Cole.

Jeez, we're deffo in for Babel (according to SSN) but his chopper is heading for West Ham. We can't even beat the Spammers to the signature of Babel. What has become of us?

I'm thoroughly dismayed . . .

We'll pull off another Eidur, surely he doesnt want to play there.

This is just a fecking joke.

No offence to Gallas and Sandro, but them two are not gonna turn us from a Top 4 team into anything that we are not already . . . .

£6m spent is not enough to keep us 4th or to give us a decent run in the Champions League.

2 hours. There HAS to be some sort of loan somewhere . . . .

i'm just glad Babel isn't coming, unless i'm missing something in him because i really don't see how he would be an improvement on this squad.

He looked a very good player in the U21s Euros are few years back which is why both Liverpool and the scum were in for him and they both were willing to pay 13m for him so if he can get back to that form and gets a good run in the team for West Ham then I think he will be a great siging for them and wont be there for too long.
