Milan Player Wants Spurs Move

Sully Muntari, old Pompey boy, has once again been linked with a move to N17. Well, it makes a change from the Beckham story. This time though, Muntari's had his own say regarding his future.

"If I have to leave Inter Milan, I'll go to London," he told the Italian media. "That is the only possibility."

So read between the lines, he wants a move to Tottenham. But do we need him? The transfer of another centre midfielder is hardly an immediate priority and I'd struggle to see where Redknapp's former player would fit into the side on a regular basis. Would Redknapp move for a player that would command a transfer fee up to £11m just to warm the benches for atleast half a season in the worse case scenario that we run short in midfield? Hard to tell. We need strength in depth but I'd rather we keep our eyes open for a striker.

If he's going cheap, get him in quick; but let's not spend weeks trying to get pen to paper, we don't need him desperately.

Regards.

Do we need Muntari?

I'm sure you are all very much aware of the 'talks' taking place between Inter and ourselves over the possible transfer of former seasider Sully Muntari. Another one of Harry's old favourites.

We all know how dynamic and influential the boy was at Pompey, but yet I continue to struggle to seek how he'd fit into the first eleven. The signing of Niko Kranjcar, who is said to not be a replacement for Modric, has looked bright in his handful of games for us.

In terms of Niko; there is no place for him on the bench, the Croat's surely got to be starting most games even when Luka returns. I'm sure Jenas may be expecting to take the hit anytime soon.

I can't see Muntari joining us just to stay warmed on the bench. The player is far to good for this to occur but where will he play for us?

Lennon, Wilson, Modric and Niko will surely be the starting midfield.

Do we need Muntari? Probably not, good back-up player though.

Regards.
