Beckham to Spurs

[Randy Marsh]

What a pointless publicity stunt. He would get absolutely destroyed in a Premiership midfield. Well past it.

[Anubis]

He probably wants the wife out of the US before she starts a full on war with the Cruises, and has the full weight of the Church of Scientology hunting them.

[ngogswilly]

Is he signing for them or whats the story with it now?

 

Definently a commercial idea, sell a few more shirts and boost their profile. Spurs have absolutely no need for him at all. Even though they've sold Bentley they have better options they could play at right wing than Beckham if Lennon is out

[Unrighteous]

It wasn't even a good idea a couple years ago.

Now, now. Old floppy jowls has been quite clear about this not, I repeat not, being a stunt to sell more shirts.

Arrys probably selling them out of the back of his van as we speak.

 

The ole wheela deela.

Has Bentley gone from Spurs then?

SteveH has posted a Mirror article on the transfer thread that reckons the Beckham deal has faltered. Harry will be spitting mad at the cash he's put into producing blag shirts for his secret network of market stalls.

Thought he had but dont think its 100% complete yet.

[gkmacca]

Even when Spurs are doing well on the pitch, they're still a joke off it. What a pathetic bit of nonsense from Redknapp. When Beckham trained with Arsenal it was just mentioned and that was that. Spurs have to turn it into a media event.

Ah right, I thought perhaps I'd missed that news. Where is he likely to be heading to then? I heard Villa mentioned before Xmas.

That's exactly what it appears to have become. He loves to hear himself talk does Redknapp.

[Trumo]

Redknapp cannot function without talking about bringing players in, even when he says he doesn't expect any movement in the transfer window. He has aspirations for the England job, but given that he wouldn't be able to wheel and deal, I think he'd overcompensate by handing out caps like confetti. Bechkam would do well to actually show more commitment to LA Galaxy and tune his body into preparing for their season rather than based on the European calendar. By constantly going on loan and training around Europe he's making his MLS move look more and more pointless.

Think Birmingham is where hes headed. Don't know if anyone else has come in for him in last few days though. Seemed to be fairly advanced last time I read about it.

Birmingham I think. Think his mrs was complaining about it taking too long or something on twitter apparently.

[Frankenhooker]

I thought Bentley sign for Birmingham on loan ?

 

I see this Beckham deal might still happen, after days of 'he will' 'he won't'. Personally think the league's too fast for him now and he'll get caught on the ball a fair bit. He's only going to play about eight games anyway. In which time Spurs will drop a first team player to accommodate him, and then have to call on this first team player when Beckham fucks off.

 

Pointless.

[paddyberger15]

Cheers for the info lads. Birmingham would seem to be about his level now. About 3 seasons ago he had a real future in front of him, but a lack of pace and an abundance of cuntery seem to have put paid to that.

Beckham is at Spurs training ground which is not too far away from where I live.

 

Decent signing to have on the bench to come on and change games.

[Anubis]

Spare a thought for our old friend, Davey, who thinks Beckham should chase him....

 

Everton manager David Moyes reveals he wants to sign David Beckham - Telegraph

 

 

Should Beckham decide that the lure of playing in the Premier League again is too much to resist, Moyes could not be clearer that he would do all he could to bring the player to Merseyside.

 

“I would hope that if David wanted to come he would pick up the phone and call me,” said Moyes. “I worked with him at Preston. We played in the same team and I made him look good. I made his bad crosses OK. I think I scored from one of his corners by making his bad passes look good.

 

“If he wanted to come back to the Premier League he would only need to phone me or Phil [Neville, the Everton captain] and we would be here for him. He knows how to get hold of Phil and he knows how to get hold of me.

 

"We would have to look into it financially, but if he came and said to me I would like to come and play I would have to go to the chairman and ask if we could do it, if we think we can make it work by selling enough shirts.”

 

I guess you and Phil are both still waiting for that call, eh?

[longballs]

The Beckham signing is a big risk for Spurs in my opinion. Spurs are going well, Lennon is playing really well and if trying to fit Beckham in to the mix fucks things up no one will laugh harder than me. You only have to look at the circus that it has turned in to so far; he is the biggest media whore known to man.

Maybe 10 years ago.

 

This is the reason why i hate the guy. He can do all the ads in the world and wear sarongs etc i don't care about that but when it comes to shit like this and does his annual 'who will take me for 3 months purely for my marketbility cos i have no shame in that'.

[Randy Marsh]

The latest was he'll be there until Feb 10th, just training at the moment but still trying to do a deal.

[dirk grout]

Beckham hasn't played on the wing for years. If he does play for spurs it will probably be in centre mid.

[diamondjoe]

Even in his prime, he couldn't tackle, head the ball, he had no left foot, didn't score very many goals and his free kick rate was atrocious.

He might have crossed the odd ball, but fuck me I could cross the ball given the same chances he had.

I don't know what he ever offered. Vastly, vastly overrated.

[Guest PurpleNose]

Hope they sign him.
