It looks like Crouch will be joining us
1 min read
The scenario being played out at the moment with both Harry Redknapp and Jermain Defoe sending love sonnets to Peter Crouch can only mean a deal is on the cards.
I thought we would end up with Crouch, I just didn't think it would be this soon.
Harry himself said that he was after 2 or 3 players that could add class to our current squad. If that statement meant anything at all, can someone please explain to me then, how, and in what way Peter Crouch can accomplish this?
We're apparently waiting on Huntelaar to decide if he wants to join us not. Let's hope Crouch is plan B and the option of signing Huntelaar is plan A.
Hell, I'd even want Negredo, a player that's never played in the Prem, above Crouch.
With all this business about us being linked with strikers, I think it's pretty obvious either Bent, Pavlyuchenko, or both will be on their way.
If we hear another word from Harry on Crouch, expect it to be a done deal.
COYS!!!

He's also a better player than No-English Pavlyuchenko or Sandra Bent.
At 12mil, he's cheap too.

Let's say we get Crouch, how are we to accomodate Defoe, Keane & Crouch?
What is wrong with most of you?
Crouch can do everything our team lacks e.g
1. Hold the ball up
2. Physical / height upfront
3. Big club and game experience
He would be a wholesome addition to the squad but I feel Harry wants huntelaar slightly above him.....over to Huntelaar with an answer expected from him on over the next couple of days.
Why are we not trying to get Sneijder for our left wing I have no idea!!!!
I think you'll find most of us are pro-Crouch.
Have faith spurs fans. Harry know's what he's doing.
NO TO CROUCH!
Regards.
Crouch is average at most things-stay well clear.
:)
One of the best first touches in the EPL
Get Huntelaar
Some of the comments regarding the abilities Crouch has are interesting.
He does hold the ball up and is an unselfish player, but don't expect him to score a lot of goals.
Why would we want to get Sneijder for left wing, Adam? He's a cental midfielder, and although he hjas played on the left before, he's not particularly effective there.
COYS!!!!!!!
Sneijder is both left and right footed and most his good work and goals at Ajax and Madrid have been from the wing....
Therefoe he would be suited to our left.
Modric is not a left winger long term!
Paul you are a looser with your comments based in internet searches...
Robben can only play when he 100% fit...and pulls out of games unless he is.
Although very good he is not committed as he spells in England and Spain have proved.
Exactly what Spurs should not be doing is signing a player like that...
Do need a left back and experienced centre back though.
Would not mind Carvalho from Chelski and Ciskho from Porto who Milan have been trying for but found teeth problems with! (Bad Teeth are bad signs for footballers)
As are Dutch and clearly smoking too much!
Sneidjer maybe good in the middle in Holland but in a top league he is only going to get a real chance on the wing....
Would rather have Van da Vart in the middle than Sneijder....
Sneijder can deliver quality crosses from both wings,, something Spurs have lacked for some time (and Bentley has failed to provide).
You have made a typically low level historical understanding of what works in England...there are 8 strong squads in the league and Sneijder would only do well in wide positions for all of these teams.
On another note, I would love Sneijder and i am surprised the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea (who need him on the wing!), Man City, Aston Villa, Everton (lack of cash) are not pulling out all the stops to get him on board.
Also, I have never played football manager is it good?
Crouch..knows EPL very well .ie .defenders!...is a certain type of player with defoe etc which could be vital in some types of games .more options.....our squad has various attacking options...strength in experience is vital for continuing campaign for champions league....
which is why id like viera too ..being fit..strong heads..!!
dont underestimate these two.....they can play!......
crouch may not be trendy .....but he is great in the air etc....
viera...has some gas in the tank!.......ultimately has to be a stronger spurs!!.....
Harry wants to move on and is doing what is right ,within budget etc.
NO wholesale changes..too risky! .as Ramos proved....
this side knows itself now.......

In the current market and with no European football these are the only kind of players we can get.
Harry and Levy are positioning us to get the best we can for where we are at as a Club at present.
With the right combination of players we can achieve top 6 and threaten 4th even if those players are not the elite.

In an ideal world I'd like to see us playing 4-3-1-2 but would Lennon fit into a line up like that?
