I hope so theres alot of talk today about Carrick leaving Spurs for Utd for around 10 Million, i think he would be a good buy for the reds, a few people are also saying it could involve a swap with Horse face Van the man, i think he will leave us but we shouldnt sell him to another Premiership club.
I think you could have a few problems if Arsenal get in the CL mate alot of your star players will be wanted men. ;D
Hope he does'nt go but if Utd put in a good bid and offer him proper £££ (He's on £15k per year at spurs,which in football terms is poo) then he could be off.
We have been assured funds to buy and Champions league footy should hopefully secure him.
Time will tell but i hope he f*cking stays put. 8)
15 k per year is poo fella ;D
Really like Carrick, got to play him as Holding midfileder for England and push Lampard and Gerard forward now Shrek is out!!
yea i think carrick is fucking excellent, very underated, and started showing his attacking skills recently, taking players on, think he would complete englands midfield as a holding player.
i wouldnt mind getting paid 15k a week though!!!
If spurs are serious about improving each season and trying to get to the top, we need to keep him definitely, if they sell him it shows a complete lack of ambition, especially if they only get past it horse boy in return.
Saying that though mate you cant do much if he wants the move, and to be honest would you blame him??Quote:

To be honest I would blame him if he moved. Spurs are on the up and have a lot of young talent. Now that they've had a chance to settle we should see better results every year, if they keep adding wisely to the squad I can't see why they won't be challenging the likes of Man U in the near future.

The cockrel is a flappin mate 8)
please tell me how Spurs will be challenging Man Utd??? I think your going a tad over board, i like Spurs i like Jol, but you aint in the same league to compete with Utd.Quote:

Spurs are going through a good period at the moment but they will not be on the level of Man Utd Chelski Liverpool or Arsenal for a long long long time if ever.
Man Utd would offer Carrick a chance of silver ware every year, can Tottenham offer that?? No they cant.
They will only challenge if they get there own Abrabovic!!
We shall see next season ;)
Smash do you really believe that?? come on mate, Spurs will do well to get in europe again next season, i think Newcastle-Man City-Middelsboro will defintly have better seasons and be competing with Spurs for europe.Quote:

Yes you have improved a hell of a lot this year, but it will be a gradual process, i cant see you competing off the field against the likes of Utd for a good few years if you can build up a reputation in europe and keep improving, on the pitch it will be difficult to back it up next year as Everton showed, but if you dont get into the Champions League do you think all your players will stay??
Ive heard Lennon is wanted by Liverpool and obviously Carrick??
I think you'll find 50k a week is more than 100k a year.Quote:

Read this as I was submitting. Keeping players is obviously crucial, especially the two you mentioned, both have improved and added to their play considerably this season, Lennon looks to be turning into something special, especially if he works on his finishing. As I said, squadwise we are on par with Liverpool IMO except for Gerrard of course, I'd be gutted if Lennon Carrick would even consider going there.Quote:

A few more additions and who knows.
;)
But no i don't think we are anywhere near Man Utd and won't be for years ;D
BUT Liverpool are well within our sights i think.
