I said this about Villa, so same applies to both the Spanish guys and look how awful Torres has been mainly for Cheatski, all very well strolling around tippy tappy La Liga games, Benteke has had a season in the cut and thrust of the Prem.

plus got take into account there under no pressure to sell either.

Spanish paper Cadena Ser, who originally confirmed that Baldini was in Valencia to discuss the transfer of Roberto Soldado, have confirmed this Tuesday evening that a deal is close.

Tottenham placed a bid of 26 million euros, plus 4 million in incentives, which is expected to close the deal for Soldado.

Valencia are reportedly holding out for 30 million euros but the Valencia board of directors are meeting on Tuesday and are expected to confirm the deal.

Cadena Ser add that Soldado is keen on a move to White Hart Lane and has already agreed personal terms with Spurs – believed to be 3 and a half million euros per season.

They also suggest that if Spurs pay 20 million euros of the fee in cash, the deal will be for sure be ratified

Valencia president Amadeo Salvo was quoted on Radio Marca on Monday night all but confirming the transfer.

Salvo said on Saldado’s 30 million release fee: “What’s being offered isn’t far from that.”

Further discussions between Baldini and Valencia are also expected on Tuesday morning.

Bet we get him for less Lought, the longer they leave it, the more they will lose,
just seen the picture of Baldini in a restaurant in Spain with Soldados agent.

I understand he's not to great in the air and gets very few headed goals. But some of the goals he did get for Valencia last season were really good.

It seems to me he's a late developer so IF!! we do get him maybe his best years are now.

Mikey, with the revenue from CL, if his goals gets us a couple of seasons in CL, it will be worth every penny.
