Stephen Bergwijn.

It was probably a mixture of both the club and Jose, so I reckon you can stop arguing

From a guardian article:

"In the end everything was resolved and Spurs had a player their scout Brian Carey had watched extensively for two years."

So yes the club wanted him.

But I doubt he'd have been signed if Jose hadn't wanted him, so I assume that he gave the club the green light to push the transfer through in January"

“It was fast. I didn’t expect to make the transfer in January. I thought in the summer. But if Tottenham wants you, you can’t say no.”

The club and Jose working together in harmony, what could possibly go wrong!

If Jose didn't want him he would not have signed. End of. Poch didn't want Maddison or Tilemans but there were deals to be had if Poch wanted him.

If Jose didn't want Stevie B he would not have signed. Are you guys ok ??? Seriously LOL

End of the day, history will show Jose signed Stevie B. Sorry for your agenda LOL

There is a difference between jose approving of a signing and jose pushing for a signing.

So let`s see Poch left. Bergwijn played for Ajax. Jose comes in, Bergwijn signed for Spurs under Jose.

Seems simple enough other than to Dave&Danny and Christopher, the two resident ITKs.

A rare good news story?

We've got several good news stories currently at Spurs:

1) Steven Bergwijn

2) Jose taking the most PL points other than Liverpool since he joined Spurs

3) Still in the CL and FA Cup

4) Well placed to finish in the top 4

5) Lo Celso looks a real talent

6) Gedson has had a nice couple of cameos, could be another top signing

7) Unbeaten in 7, winning our last 3 Prem games

8) Just 11 points off 2nd spot

9) Tanganga looks to be a beast

10) Son is on a hot scoring streak

----------------------------------------------------------------------

So that`s a dozen rare good stories.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dozen is 12
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, let’s deconstruct this.
You’re correct that only 10 ‘rare good news stories’ were listed.

However, dig a bit deeper, and you’ll note that points 3 and 7 effectively contain two separate stories each.

It’s clear to me that Sandy took these into consideration when arriving at his claim of a ‘dozen’ stories.

So all in all, you must be feeling pretty silly right about now...
----------------------------------------------------------------------

11) Sizzle is in a rage

12) I just got my ticket for the Norwich game.

BOOM.

looking forward to wednesday night mate?

bet sizzle aint going
