Manchester United made to sweat until Spurs find second striker

One down, one to go at White Hart Lane after it appears virtually certain that Tottenham will be signing Roman Pavlyuchenko in the next day or so. It appears that until Spurs find a potential strike partner for the Russian hotshot, Manchester United will be made to wait for a certain Bulgarian forward with an attidue problem.
The Independent report that Tottenham releasing Dimitar Berbatov is dependent on whether they can sign someone who will effectively be his replacement. Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that he’s not massively confident of bolstering his squad before midnight on Sunday and it appears to be dependent on the negotiating skills of the Spurs board.
For their part Tottenham have told Berbatov that they do not regard Pavlyuchenko’s signing alone as sufficient reason for the Bulgarian to leave the club. They currently have only Pavlyuchenko, whom they do not think they will have signed in time to play against Chelsea on Sunday, and Darren Bent. Arshavin’s signing would give them the cover they need. They also believe it would be easier for the Russians to settle into English football if they were playing in the same team.
Arshavin and Pavlyuchenko struck up a lethal partnership for Russia during Euro 2008, but could they do the same in the Premier League? Hasn’t anybody stopped to think that Spurs continue to be shipping goals at the back, and that defensive reinforcements might also be worthy of consideration? Tottenham fans, would you consider the Russian duo to be a good replacement for Berbatov and Keane?

The best possible at the moment in my opinion. After all we all know what they are capable of. But unless we get another CB and a DM we’re still shite at the back and if so we’ll never compete with the big ones

davspurs -
Every chance that Corluka will be a Spurs player by Monday night. The deal has already been done; terms agreed; medical completed. No need to go through all that again. All that is required is for City to release his registration.
And according to reports in Spain, City are about to sign Zabaleta from Espanyol. He’s a versatile player but primarily a right back. If that goes through, Corluka’s wish will be granted and he will be allowed to leave.

Bring on the Russians. Always a lottery getting players from other leagues but we don’t appear to have any other realistic options so just got to hope these boys can do the job. We don’t appear to be getting linked with any defensive mids so we’re just going to have to work with what we’ve got and try and get Huddlestone doing that job. Leave Jenas on the bench. And keep the faith with Bent - he’s a confidence player and will come good if given the chance

I wish thats all the players are doing drinking . but sadley threre are teams cheating and dont worry its not spurs cos ive it was the fuckers would be winning red faced loads of energy and scoring in injury time.thtere are managers with not mutch money buying players for half the ammount spurs have paid and winning games . this is not a mystery to me because i no what going on and so does uk sport not until 2009 and the new testers are installed will this extra energy thats making players like darren retcher satchel pinkthead ex fattie peid the late scorer for liverskint and the rest look gaunt and ill looking this crapp kills and needs stopping this is why england play rubbish the energy is missing because fifa have better testers and are watching for this drug and the new steroid that the ac milan player got caught taking all the energy muscle without bulking players. like dwane chambers did the names of the players has been distorted for legal reasons but i hope it gives clever bastards a insite into who is taking {ephedrine}
