Is Saido Berahino finally coming to Spurs?

He isn't worth £22-25M, or for whatever price they want.

I think that should be looked at another way; he will be worth it if he does what he is paid to do (score lots of goals). Soldado was worth it, until he proved he wasn't. Look at Bale; Southampton sold him, Ars*nal didn't want him, Spurs got him and there was some question marks over him at first. Even talk of selling him. Then he became magic for Spurs and we sold for £85 million.

If we had crystal balls (sorry, 'ball'), and could go into the future and found out that he helped us challenge for the title I would say that £25 million was too little.

Next you'll say Lamela is worth the £30M we paid for him.

Get real...

I would if he did what it said on the tin

I don't think we will know until we reach the deadline what we have, and haven't bought. But another striker would be nice.

I just read that a third bid has been rejected by WBA.

[Blackjack]

This has been a shambles the way this has all panned out and it's making our club look bad!, W Brom chairmen is slagging off Levy for his conduct in this matter and I feel this fiasco is just the sort of thing that will it put some players from wanting to come here! I don't like to see this sort of thing and nothing good has and will ever come from it! Wasted time trying to sign a player that had a hefty price tag and today could have been used much more wiser, another Levy example of bad running of the transfer policy.

[Glenn R]

I think it is six of one, half a dozen of the other. WBA chairman has been criticised because of how he handled it. Tony Pulis has said he expected Berahino to go and thought it was a shambles. Berahino was annoyed the way the club and chairman handled it, he wanted to leave. At the same time Levy should have had a contingency plan.

If Saido keeps pushing it might be possible that Spurs gets him in the January window. He is not a very happy bunny, and bunnies that aren't happy get nasty and myxomatosis and die a horrible death.

Let the Club buy his contract at WBA so that he can become a free agent and join us as soon as!!

I actually thought of this as well, but I don't know if this would be allowed. I think it would be regarded as unethical and against some regulations.

[Chelmsford_yid]

It was deffo a closed case with WBA, now it will good to see how he gets on from now till the Jan Window.

Is he actually that good ? I'm not so sure. Bearing in mind no other club came in for him ? Personally I am not that disappointed.

I've seen him play on a number of occasions and I think he is good. But that isn't usually the point, the point is will he be able to fit and continue scoring goals. Soldado was good but failed here. So I don't think you can tell from how they perform for another club.

[Spursx]

I can see him coming to us in the january window sales.
