Everton, West Ham, Villa, Liverpool ask for Lennon
Surprise surprise, the reported sides chasing Aaron Lennon as the window winds down are Everton and West Ham, with Aston Villa making the main trio.
You'll recall the article in January where I pointed out the situation hadn't changed from what I reported right at the start of that window, West Ham, Everton, Southampton, and Liverpool were the only teams he was interested in.
On Saturday, I penned a piece which suggested that West Ham and Everton will be the two teams that will fight for his signature when the window draws to a close and he'll sign for one of them. The Daily Mail and others have picked up on the story which reveals discussion are taking place, they have been for a while and fresh stories of Liverpool making inquiries.
Lennon to West Ham or Everton before the window closes
For all you why does Daniel Levy late people, why is Aaron Lennon, Adebayor, Fazio, Lamela still here if nobody else leaves it late, why are Chelsea still chasing John Stones, Man Utd chasing Gareth Bale, Man City, PSG, Juventus etc etc.
It amazes me that fans still haven't figured out every club does it because it is basic business practice and business comes first for football clubs. Transfers have a definitive, you buy for a set fee you sell for a set fee, you are not gambling on points, just a balance sheet. You may shout it shouldn't be that way but it is, that 's the reality of the world we live in.
More transfers are done in the closing stages of the window than at any other time so the we do it more than other clubs is complete nonsense, you only notice what happens at Spurs because you follow Spurs, you don't follow WBA or Bournemouth so don't know as much about their transfer activity than you do ours, hence what you believe you see is a misconception.
Put simply players are cheaper at the end of the window when clubs must sell so have t be flexible, that will always be the case as ever club wants to pay as little as possible, simply wait a few weeks and you can get a deal, 4 games isn't going to decide a season, the other 34 are.
The media and the administrators are the only people who want the window open after the season has started, the vast majority within the game all want it to shut before the season starts, but that won't happen, there is too much publicity in it.
Further Tottenham Reading
Obvious Lamela didn't want to be at Spurs
Wembley still an option
