Spurs star Adel Taarabt open to QPR move

[sirpiechucker]

Does make me laugh, with a week to the start of the season no Spanish or French sides come in for him so now adel wants to play in the prem, and no one wants him there then better to play were someone wants me!!
We are Adel only option!
And 5 million for a player for a player who has 11 months left on his contract is crazy!!!
1.5m plus add ons is more than fair

I wouldn't be surprised if he is the kind of signing we make hours before the window closes. He'll hold out for a Prem club, Spurs will hold out for £5m and when neither appear I think then we will get our man.

They may loan him to us until end of August to keep in shop window (so to speak) or even until January. If no one comes in then we have him for 1.5m...imagine deal like that would be good for both parties then

Two Ball will stay at Spurs and walk for nothing as a free agent in 11 months and is why in a week when Spurs 25 has been done and the penny finally drops that for whatever reason no one wants him (strange as some on here think he is a world beater), Two Ball will be sold to us for £1mish with a big % sell on clause.

i say 3m tops for him

[RussRanger]

No problem with the guy keeping his options open at all but these "Options" don't exist.

Just think there is a reason why no big clubs from Spain or abroad or the Premiership have come in for him and it is simply because he is still too raw for that level and needs to realise that at the moment he is just a VERY GOOD CHAMPIONSHIP PLAYER.

The sooner he realises that he probably needs another year at this level to develop his team work skills and his attitude the better player he will be. Think Warnock would be a good mentor for him. At the moment he would be a liability in the Premiership because he would lose the ball and frustrate his team-mates no end. Think Harry realises that and others do too. He has 8 days and I don't see any firm offers from him so he may as well sign now and stop bleating on about his options that don't exist.

£3m for someone with 11 months left on a contract is far to much, and why would someone with 11 months left on a contract leave for average wages, when in 11 months he could get the £3,000,000 added to his average wages, over a three year contract.

Pay him what he wants, as we must make sure he comes. I would love to have his name on my shirt as he would represent a proper signing and a real message of intention for this season. It does amaze me how some people don't rate him.

I sat near a bunch of misery guts supporters last year who would jeer at him whenever he touched the ball which was upsetting to witness. I had to move at H/T as I was getting more and more annoyed I swear I would have done something I wouldn't regret. The negativity of some of our so called supporters is truly shocking! That's the real reason why it took so long for me to bite the bullet and buy a ST. I just couldn't find a section of the crown where I wanted to sit.

Back on topic - Adel please sign up we won't boo you this year we promise.

W12 - I dont think it would come to the surprise of any1 that we are not first choice if they read your postive vibes !

and if the players did before they joined we wouldnt sign any1

Whether we sign him or not, he and we need a striker. He will create endless chances but if there is nobody to put them in the back of the net then what is the point. The priority has to be a striker first and then Taraabt.

[EYR]

I thought the fee was agreed weeks ago but it was AT stalling,now whos telling pork pies?

[PutneyHoop]

I don't care which order - Adel won't sign until the last minute and I would hope for a striker early next week but I can feel a loan signing on the horizon.

It would not surprise me if NW plays him behind Clarke or HH, at the expenses of Buzz.

Well it obvious he rates him more than Buzsaky hence the reason why he had him in the team over him last season.

Taarabt after all is the better player.

That's a good point but if we land AT hopefully Neil will bring in that goal scorer we need, someone like Earnshaw would put them away.

[singingranger]

you know as much as i love Buz - he has never really delivered away from home - hope this will change, Adel has on many occasion been as good on his travels he always wants
the ball, but Buz hasnt been played in his right postion much at all

Of course there is always the argument that the reason Taraabt hasn't signed yet is because he hasn't seen a commitment in the transfer market which makes us look odds on for promotion. If we were to go out and make a big signing like Beattie or Maynard he might want to sign tomorrow. However whilst we still look at best a top half team what is the rush to sign for us?
