I wont disagree with what the Evening Standard have written as I suppose to all intents and purpose it could in fact be true,

Yet,I will without any shadow of doubt stand in the corner of those who believe it to be a non starter,

Also if Steve Bruce has been a little cheeky you can’t really blame him,as he strives to develop his club,and perhaps in all honesty we should do a little of the same and try for some regular big name starters rather than ones though good footballers in their given right,alas have now found themselves frozen out of their present teams,I,E two keepers recently on trial at The Lane,

One more thing in case you were unaware Sebastien Bassong has been left out of the Cameroon squad for the forthcoming African Cup of Nations,yes I do feel sorry for him,though it’s definitely a boon for Spurs in their current predicament regarding central defenders,plus he’s still young so their will be many more chances for him.

Yes Dan the story is stupid. However, the remark you made about Daniel Levy is just as stupid.

if this transfer actually happens we would be taking a step backwards as i think daws is one of the best defenders in the country atm and is much better then upson. DONT SELL HIM HARRY. And i would be delighted if he was made club captain instead of robbie keane. Daws for WC squad!!!!!!

Harry will never sell Daws. No wonder the standard is now a free paper!

TOTAL NON STARTER, DAWS IS NOT THAT FAR INTO A NEW CONTRACT AND NOW PLAYING REGULARLY SO WHY WOULD HE WANT TO LEAVE. I DONT THINK REDKNAPP WOULD GIVE THE ARM BAND TO SOMEONE HE WAS GOING TO SELL AND HAVE TO START WITH ANOTHER NEW CAPTAIN WHEN HE LEAVES, ESPECIALLY AS KEANE ISNT GUARANTEED A STARTING SLOT. FORM COUNTS FOR A LOT IN REDKNAPPS EYES AS WE SEE WITH KEANO AND DAWS IS PLAYING THE BEST FOOTBALL OF HIS CAREER AND REALLY SHINING AS CAPTAIN AND COULD TURN INTO THE ALL ACTION DEFENDER WE HAVE BEEN LACKING SINCE THE ONE AND ONLY GRAHAM ROBERTS. JUST WISH ALL THIS TRANSFER SPECULATION WAS ABOUT THAT USELESS TWAT JENAS, CAN ANYBODY TELL ME WHAT HE ACTUALLY DOES ?
DAWS IS A LEGEND IN THE MAKING

Dawson is a leader who leads by example, and as long as his with us he should always be our captain, and in front of woody and ledders. upson for me cannot lace dawsons boots and is better than lescot.

Daws should get an extended run in the side – he deserves it. Love his focus, energy and professionalism. Let Woody and King EARN their recalls when they’re fit. There’s a lot to be said for a settled centre back partnership.

By the way Dan, this is the first time on your blog. The presentation is great – nice clean layout and big readable text. Great stuff!

No substance to this story at all. Even if it were true, we would be mad to let Dawson go as he is looking the part more and more and with the added responsibility of wearing the armband he has looked like he is a natural leader. Give him the regular starting slot that his patience has deserved and let him keep the captaincy, with Ledley or Woody playing alongside him when fit!

Never never never. His displays of late have reminded me of john terry. Heart of a lion. Superb.
