So as you know I am a huge Tottenham Hotspur fan, and there are quality players in our side currently. Spurs do not pay their players the wages that the big clubs can offer, so quite freaquently those big clubs come in and take our best players away from us. Luka Modric is one of those players and is attracting a lot of attention from Chelsea, Man U, and Man City, they are all offering him at least double his wages. It is reported that Modric wants to leave to play Champions League Football, but I think he is seeing dollar signs. So the question is, should Spurs cash in on him or force him to stay? My thought is to let him go, it is never a good idea to have a player in the squad that is not happy. He will infect the entire group and the season will become a wash. Spurs should get the most money they can for him and use that cash to buy a top quality striker, something they need more right now than a midfielder. We have Huddlestone, Sandro, Van Der Vaart, Pienaar, and Kranjcar already, and they are pretty good. We also have Jenas, and Palacios, but they look like they might be sold to get fresh blood in. And, they could keep Giovani Dos Santos and convert him to an attacking mid. He has been playing out of his boots for his Country, and if Redknapp could get a little of that form out of him for club he could be a good player for them.
anyway, what do you think, should they sell Modric or fight to keep him?

Giuseppe Rossi to Tottenham
Being a big US and Tottenham fan I can honestly say I do not know how I feel about this rumor going around, apparently Harry Redknapp is trying to buy Giuseppe Rossi from Villarreal. In case you do not know, Rossi was born in the states and moved to Europe to play soccer professionally. He snubbed the US for his Native Italy and has become a prolific striker, so part of me wants to see him at Tottenham because he is a good striker and the other part of me wants to see him fail and not be at my club. Hey, if he scores goals for Tottenham then I am ok with him, I guess.
HARRY REDKNAPP has urged Daniel Levy to splash the cash on Giuseppe Rossi to make Tottenham title contenders. Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp believes Villarreal striker Giuseppe Rossi, 24, has the firepower his side need.
Leandro Damiao from Brazilian club Internacional is also a target – and boss Redknapp insists Spurs chairman Daniel Levy needs to invest to keep pace with their rivals.
Redknapp said: “I love Rossi. We tried to get him last season when he was £18m and that looks cheap now.
“It’s up to the club and Daniel but if you want top players they cost top money and they are not cheap. Top wages and fees.
“You need miracles if you’re going to keep picking up people who are bargains and they become worth mega-money.”
