    Yep, we got him on loan at the beginning of the season.

    Here a list of rumors we are currently mentionted:

    Remy told us to F off and he ain't coming here
    Liverpoo wants Defoe for 10 mill, Levy said sure 20!
    With no Remy coming apparently Spurs are looking at Llorente again
    Bassong tweeted he's in Paris
    Target Junior Hoilett dad and agent said he's going to see out the season
    Who the hell knows whats going on with Samba
    Apparently Levy is asking too much for Pav

    anything I missed?

    edit: 1 more forgot we are linked to Messi as always! :D

    My thoughts on the rumor mill:

    -Remy told us to F off and he ain't coming here- Suit yourself.
    -Liverpoo wants Defoe for 10 mill, Levy said sure 20!- Great negotiation skills
    -With no Remy coming apparently Spurs are looking at Llorente again--Warranted
    Bassong tweeted he's in Paris--Not shedding tears...
    Target Junior Hoilett dad and agent said he's going to see out the season--Admirable in this day and age.
    Who the hell knows whats going on with Samba--Blackburn will cave.
    Apparently Levy is asking too much for Pav--Let go when we get another striker

    He's waiting for Rivaldo to finalize his move first.

    Modric thing is laughable, just reheated nonsense to sell papers.

    Samba to QPR apparently, massive wage.

    I suspect there will be a big rush in the last week of the window once teams start to blink.

    QPR must have promised Hughes a pretty nice transfer kitty for him to sign on with them.

    I remember ready Hughes would only sign on as manager if given a sizable transfer purse. Enjoy playing for a mid to lower tier team Samba where you could be playing on a top 4 to possible premier winning squad. Too bad if true.

    Apparently we've accepted Liverpool's £12m bid for Defoe.

    In other news, RvP allegedly handed in a transfer request, but the club rejected it.

    Cheeky £25m bid, Danny?

    no news anywhere else about this tho...

    Harry better have some serious strikers coming in ASAP with this. We need Samba to sign asap and PLEASE find someone to take over the RM role. Lennon is great but he is the weakest link of our midfield!

    Apparently Defoe thing is rubbish, fake twitter account.

    I can see us selling Defoe in the summer, similar to how we flogged off Crouch. Can't see it happening this month though given the lack of upgrades available.

    We won't be selling Defoe in January, It will be Pav that will go if one of the strikers does leave.

    Some Rumors off ESPN's on the move which is funny to read from time to time but here one rumor that caught my eye:

    10.45 GMT: Giovanni Dos Santos looks like he's headed for Villarreal, who must be desperate to pay the silly money Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy wanted for a player destined never to light up the Lane.

    With the court on going until next week I doubt any transfers are going to be done to be honest.

    btw, i'm wondering if there could be any bad implications for spurs (and possibly for 'arry himself) if court decides that he owns money have to pay it back...could be any jail time for instance?

    He going to have to pay the money back if he did avoid taxes by putting payments in a secret bank acount in Monoco, don't think jail would happen but it would be a PR nightmare for Redknapp and for Tottenham Hotspur football club.
