Whenever Spurs enter the equation for a big player, they never get him. All they ever do is act as the stalking horse for a big club. Even if they bid the right amount of money the player will turn them down in favour of that big club. It’s been the same for at least 15 years and won’t be changing anytime soon. Small time is their middle name.

To be fair I think the influence of Robbie Keane may well have an impact on the Duff story, like Martin Jol had an influence on bringing Edgar Davids to Spurs cos he’s Dutch! And by all accounts Duff and Keane are pretty pally so who’s to say that our own man won’t sway the transfer deal for us.

Not quite correct Richard, the first offer for Chimbonda was reported at the very start of May and Steo Kelly’s move to Birmingham wasn’t completed until the end of June. Kelly had been looking to go before the end of the season though so I don’t know if there is a direct link between the two.

Excellent article, although Kelly deal was done way before the mention of Chimbonda

Have faith Scott, I still believe Duff will sign for us. As last year’s Davids transfer showed us all, these things don’t always happen quickly. The most important thing is that we get the quality down the left hand side that we need to push on and really challenge the top four next season and no amount of Andy Reids or Reto Zieglers can compare to Duff.

Keep the faith!

Duff wont sign, the ????? will keep him at Chelsea and either Davids, Tainio or even Ziegler will play on our left next season.
