Spurs Facing Obstacles Galore Landing €23M Super Striker

‘His contract at Roma is until 2013, and he feels fine there and with the club but nothing is impossible in football’

Don’t you just love football agents? No, nobody does. Which is why they live horrid little half lives smelling vaguely of stale fags, stale coffee and old train seats.

It is alleged that enquiries for Vucinic, the 27 year old superstar were summarily rebuffed in the last window. Tottenham got more knock-backs than a double glazing telemarketeer in January so they probably didn’t take it personally.

The Mirror have suggested that Blackburn are interested in the Roma striker, but quite how they would go about securing a player this expensive when the new owners have just remortgaged the club’s training ground is beyond me.

Liverpool, claimed Metro.co.uk are also in the frame, but quite why their name has been thrown into this I do not know. There may have been interest prior to Suarez and Carroll, but surely not at this stage. More agent talk?

The real obstacle, if the player, his agent, his club etc etc were to consent to a move, might welll be his wages. Rumoured to be in the region of €80,000 + per week, this would be a classic Tottenham fail in the making.

Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."
