Rarely are linked players actually signed by us, but we do feel that with Harry Redknapp at the helm, things could be different as we finally have a manager that uses his media connections to his advantage.
Ins
We believe that Inter's Sully Muntari is a dead cert. He'll settle comfortably with Palacios in the middle of the park.
Lille's left sided midfielder, Michel Bastos, could also be brought in by Harry. Bear in mind though, he's not a left winger, but rather a better version of Downing. If he does sign, he'll need some time to settle.
And finally, I do have a feeling Harry's spoken to the Austrian International 6.5 foot tall striker, Marc Janko. Given what the lads said in the media, it's as if he's already training at Spurs Lodge.
Outs
If Munty is to sign, I can't see Jenas staying. As the Mirror reported, we also predict a swap deal happening.
Darren Bent will be off to. Harry would actually like him to stay, but Bent wants week-to-week action.
The enigma that is David Bentley will probably be off. If reports stating that Athletico Madrid are after him, we feel he could be on his way. After all, we can't see him replacing Lennon on the wing.
Taarabt will be off, as well as Boateng. With regards to Bale, we hope he remains at the club and proves all his doubters wrong, but unfortunately, we feel that if a substantial bid comes in for him, he'll be off.
Zokora and Wigan seem to be making all the right noises at the moment, so don't be too surprised if you see Zoko diving for the Latics next season.
Huddlestone is also another player that could be on his way if a big enough bid comes in.
Players that we can't see coming are Porto's contract-wanting left back, Cissokho, Arsenal bound Santa Cruz, Stewart Downing (unless the Bastos deal falls through), and about another 132 linked players.
We'd be delighted if Harry could bring in just Munty, Bastos and a 4th striker to replace Bent.
What are your predictions?
