Acording to reports in papers 14 million transfer has been agreed. Is he the type of player Spurs need?

According to "The Sun":p
I checked Skysports and Setanta, and the Telegraph and none of them are running this story!

According to Skys Sports:-

Steve Bruce says Wigan Athletic have 'virtually agreed' a deal to sell Wilson Palacios to Tottenham Hotspur.

Yep he has "everything" Goals 0, Assists, 0 - I know we don't necessarily need a lot of goals from a DMF, but I would hardly say he has "everything" with those stats!:p

you forgot the bucket load of yellow cards

Maybe watch him play instead of looking up Wikipedia folks.

Viera, Essien even Roy Keane's Goal/Assist stats didnt make pretty reading...but every one of them lifted a premier league title.

positivenote

easy there mate, you've just compared him to the best 3 midfielder the premiership has ever seen

tippspur

I hear that he is a tough tackling, ball winning midfielder. if this is true then he is just what we need...

Pubs start serving at 12 on Sunday's in Tottenham. The Coach and Horses is where a few of us from here go. It's across the road from the bricklayers and about 100yrds further up the road (away from WHL).

Before 12, your best bet is O'Neil's pub in Stansted. Starts serving at 7 or 8 am every day.

Have a good'un

I like it - have a good feeling about Sunday.

Looks like he may not be coming to WHL after all. Man City being mentioned on other sites.

Our survival is gona go to right the wire

Does anyone know if palacios is available for c cup final? or has he played for wwigan already in it ?

mushykeogh

Played in the third round against ipswich im afraid so cup tied.

RingoSpur

He has had a medical this evening apparently so looks like it will go through in next few days. Good player but 14 million is a lot of money to pay for him I think

Stedub

at least this ends another drama, jusr seen this on spurs website

Palacios deal agreedWe are delighted to announce that we have reached agreement for the transfer of Wilson Palacios from Wigan Athletic.
Personal terms have been agreed and a medical completed

and daily mail reporting that we have signed Carlo Cudicini

SuprSi

We're in the unfortunate situation of having to spend big to get ourselves out of trouble. I'm ok with it though - anything to avoid relegation. Finally it seems we've strengthened the one area of the team we've neglected since David's or Carrick left, the one place that every fan knew had to be strengthened. It's all official........

SuprSi

One minute too slow..... :pac: I always thought we should have gone for Cudicini as I always rated him. If he comes as backup I'd be chuffed. Fair enough he may not be the same keeper he was 5 years ago but he's bound to want to play and will provide good competition for places, keeping Gomes on his toes.
