" SHOCKED "

Wed Jul 31, 2013 7:28 pm

I'm in Mallorca and I've just spoken to a group of Spurs fans and a chef of a restaurant I go to, they are all shocked that Spurs let Steven Caulker leave them, they honestly can't understand, they rate him very highly and reckon he will be up there with some of the best :thumbup:

Then Gary Lineker says he is shocked :thumbup: :thumbup:

This is what I like to hear :malky: :malky:


So has Malky found a real gem ?

He's quality. Scored on his England debut, played regular for Spurs, we've got ourselves something special.

Respect to Malky. :notworthy:

Will he get abuse like Andy Legg did? :lol: :lol:

Quality player, biggest signing so far.

They reckon, he will be a regular England International and really are stunned by Spurs letting him go :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I took the rumour we were interested as a pinch of salt.
I'm surprised we got him hut delighted, great signing.

The Jack's are saying he just lumped the ball away and that Ashley Williams was the brains of the 2 :lol: :lol:

I've also spoken to a few mates who are spurs fans and they are gutted and shocked that we got him as they thought this could be his break through season I've said it will with us!!! Hahaha :malky: :ayatollah: :malky: :ayatollah:

Spoke to a Spurs regular in work today just as the news broke about the medical. He was amazed....said he was one for the future with Spurs and was gutted he had been sold....he said he'd prefer it if we had signed Dawson.
I'm still stunned at this signing....I honestly thought the Jacks would go back for him.

That's what I can't understand, why on earth would an English club with a highly rated English international be let go so easily. His price will rise with every English cap he earns and every solid performance he puts in. At 21 this is an unbelievable bit of business by Malky "del boy" Mackay. To add if he manages to pull off the coup for capoue then other teams that usually linger from mid to the bottom of the table will really start to think! As they surely have us down as one of the 3 relegation teams and easy cannon fodder for 3 points.

I was shocked last night to even be linked with him, I think he was a regular in their side at start of last season before Dawson camelback into the team.
Top signing from Malky

You can also tell them that on Romanian tv, just before the transfer was announced that Becali the Steaua owner blocked the Chiriches transfer request, from his prison cell! :lol:

When I was told about this Monday night I had to check and asked them to repeat it :D

He could easily do a job in the Liverpool or Everton back four. That's how good he is

Hats off to Malky for this coup

Is that the end of the Moreno interest or was there nothing much in it?

I'll be surprised if we buy another cb. We were definitely in for Moreno but now this has come from nowhere it's doubtful that we'll pursue

As Hudson has already been confirmed as captain I assume we today finalised our first team centre back pairing.

This is how quickly a transfer can be done when a player wants the move. :ayatollah:

Cheers CG. Shame as he would be another great signing but perhaps too much too soon for us at this stage. Hopefully the focus will turn to a DM and winger :ayatollah:

To be honest I don't know, but I'd be surprised if we add a fourth centre back. After today's surprise though - who knows!
