SOME THINGS NEVER CHANGE


Some things in life are comforting. The warm duvet in the morning, a cup of hot chocolate, your favourite teddy bear (if you like that sort of thing).

In the silly world of transfer speculation, the equivalent of the duvet is Spurs' constant chasing of one-paced, superfluous midfielders.

And even after changing their manager, the boys from the Lane are still at it.

The Daily Star, The Sun and The Daily Mirror...in fact, all the papers seem pretty convinced that Spurs are closing in on buying Tiago from Juventus.

That is the same Tiago that mooched around the pitch looking deeply average for Chelski and Lyon, and is now doing the same in Serie A.

£9million is the fee, which goes down as reason #9898834 that football has gone completely nuts.

Tiago said he has to quit , so he is the one who is not feeling confident about playing in Seria A.
Personally I would give everyone a chance , but if he is not feeling it after all support he got recently.
DP said many players are great on training but dont show on a pitch, for sure he had Tiago in mind among others...

Juve Forcing Tiago To Agree Tottenham Move

Juventus midfielder Tiago is being forced into accepting a move to Tottenham, accourding to reports out of London

The last few days have seen Juventus and Claudio Ranieri finally give up on Tiago. What is more, even the player himself has made it very clear that he cannot take it anymore, and needs to leave Juventus.

However, Tiago and his advisors are intent on making a carefully considered move, and not rush to the first club that shows interest.

That first club at the moment are Tottenham, who have already struck a deal with Juventus.

A £9.7million (around 13.5 million euro) offer from Spurs has been accepted by the Bianconeri, but Juve now need the player to accept the move, so that they themselves can go ahead with their bid for Momo Sissoko - which is back on.

It is understood that in a bid to convince the Portuguese midfielder to 'pack his bags', Juve have informed Tiago he will not feature for the first team this season, and will have to be restricted to the training grounds for the rest of the season should he choose to stay.

Juve are convinced that 13.5 million is the best they can make from Tiago's sale, and want this deal concluded quickly lest Tottenham turn to other players. However, the player will take his time, it seems.

TIAGO UNDER PRESSURE
We've told you repeatedly in the last few days that not-very-good Portugeuse midfielder Tiago is wanted by Spurs.

Well now, according to The Times, Tiago has 'come under pressure' to sign on the dotted at the Lane, after the clubs agreed a £9.7million (£9.7million!!!) fee.

It doesn't mention who he's under pressure from, but we can only assume it's Claudio Ranieri, desperate to get rid of him before Spurs realise what they're doing.
A bit harsh, but to say the truth we need someone who has confidence in our midfield. How much had we paid for him?
