Incoming Transfers since 2004

[Gin+Tonic14]

Since the inception of Daniel Levy's controversial 'continental' management structure we have witnessed an unprecedented level of transfer activity. Overall I firmly believe we have a more talented squad than pre-June 2004.

This brings me to the crux of the argument. Who have been the outstanding additions. Due to the nature of our transfer policy I only see it fair that we categorize the additions. This is open to interpretations to fellow users however I will start by offering my breakdown.

Favorite addition: Bale
Best Value signing: Berbatov
Best Young player signed: Lennon
Never thought I would see in a Spurs shirt: Woodgate

I think Stalteri and Tainio were Bosman style transfers but I could be wrong?

Favourite addition: 2+2 = 4
Best Value: Darren Bent. A snip at £45 billion.
Best young player: Adel Taarabt. Like Zidane, but better.
Never thought I'd see him in a Spurs shirt: Rodrigo Defendi. And I was proved right.

Good idea for a thread!!! Nice one.

Favourite addition: Gus Poyet
Best Value: Jamie O'Hara (yid for a quid)
Best young player: Gareth Bale
Never thought I'd see him in a Spurs shirt: Alan Hutton (That took bloody ages)/ Woody, :supered:

I'm also adding the following:

Forgotten we'd signed him: Danny Murphy / Gilberto
Wish we hadn't signed him: Gregorz Rasiak (not sure we did as he left so soon. Does he still count?)
Wish we still had him: Mido, JD, Mendes

Most annoying player: Pascal Shimbomba
Most valuable player: The King (for being Tottenham through & through)
Lardiest player: Andy Reid
Most unplayed player: Danny Murphy/Rasiak/Pamarot/Defendi/any number of players signed on a Frankie Friday...can anyone name them? I think I can, but there's a challenge.

Best goal: Pedro from the half way line (we all know that went in)

Favourite Santini moment: The day he resigned.
Favourite MJ moment: Calling Gabby Logan 'Darling' on live TV / fighting with Wenger
Favourite Juande moment so far: TBA

Best victory: 5 - 1 innit!

"Never thought I'd see him in a Spurs shirt: David Hutton" i dont think you have seen him yet either! Alan is his name!

Wish we still had him: Mendes, Carrick (if we still had carrick we'd be top 4. "Carrick to berbatov, goal" all day long)

Most unplayed player: Dominguez, TODA, routledge too
