Ik dacht dat hij een linkspoot is? Dan zou dat mooi zijn, anders dan is hij een beetje overbodig.

Hij is rechts. Komt wel vaak van links. Goede aankoop wel, al zie ik hem niet met Modric in één elftal spelen straks, dus ik vraag me af hoe veel hij dan nog speelt.

HARRY REDKNAPP beat off an 11th-hour challenge from Everton to sign Portsmouth's Niko Kranjcar. The Croatian midfield schemer will join Tottenham in a £2.5million move.

Spurs boss Redknapp said: "I'm really delighted. I signed him for Portsmouth and he's a fantastic player and a great lad.

"I've already got two fantastic Croatian players - Luka Modric and Vedran Corluka - who can help him settle in."

Kranjcar, 25, who will sign a four-year deal, was allowed to leave Croatia's World Cup training camp last night. He is expected to have a medical today.

Redknapp is poised to bolster his squad further with deadline-day moves for Manchester City's out-of-favour winger Martin Petrov and Pompey's England goalkeeper David James.

Bulgarian Petrov, 30, will be allowed to leave City for free - and national team-mate Dimitar Berbatov has told him joining Spurs would be a great move.

Berba, who quit Tottenham for Manchester United last year, said: "I wish a lot that Martin will join Tottenham. The behaviour of City to him is not good.

"Tottenham is a bigger club than City. I know from sure sources that Martin will have a chance to play at Tottenham."

Petrov has pulled out of Bulgaria's preparations for Saturday's World Cup qualifier with Montenegro for talks.

Veteran keeper James, 39, another Redknapp signing during his Pompey days, would also add strength to a squad that is missing first-choice keeper Heurelho Gomes with a thigh injury.

Spurs are also thought to be close to taking Crystal Palace starlet Victor Moses, 18, on loan after beating off interest from Wigan.

Jawel, maar je mag aannemen dat Modric, Lennon en twee spitsen sowieso spelen. Mits fit. Dan zal Harry denk ik niet zo snel nog een speler opstellen waar je verdedigend niks aan hebt. Maar goed, er zal geregeld iemand niet kunnen spelen, en zo duur is hij ook weer niet.

Muntari was trouwens wel heel mooi geweest als die zou komen, maar lijkt me wat hoog gegrepen.

Kranjcar dus toch binnengehaald, nouja we zullen het zien. Wat mij betreft een beetje overbodig.

Balans is juist goed, zoals het nu is. Dus als Luka straks weer fit is, zal Niko minder aan spelen toekomen.

Maar goed, er zijn wedstrijden genoeg. En daarbij, als Luka zo doorgaat als hij begon, is hij misschien zo weg.

Dat laatste zit er ook in inderdaad. En Kranjcar kost maar 2M GBP, een koopje eigenlijk. Verder ook niemand vertrokken vandaag dus het ziet er wel goed uit.

Harry Redknapp endures hit and miss transfer deadline day

Harry Redknapp endured a frustrating transfer deadline day, with the Tottenham Hotspur manager securing the services of just one of the five players he had hoped to sign before today's cut-off period.

Niko Kranjcar did join Spurs, for about £2m, but Redknapp missed out on another Portsmouth player, David James, as well as the Sunderland central defender Anton Ferdinand, the West Ham United centre-half Matthew Upson and the Manchester City midfielder Martin Petrov. Redknapp had hoped to exchange the Bulgarian for David Bentley.

Kranjcar is the third player Redknapp has signed from Portsmouth since he left the club for White Hart Lane last October, following Jermain Defoe and Peter Crouch. The 25-year-old Croatia international, whom Redknapp brought to Fratton Park from Hajduk Split for £3.5m three years ago, will offer cover for his compatriot Luka Modric, who is out for about two months with a fractured leg.

Redknapp described Kranjcar as a "terrific player". "He was in the last year of his contract at Portsmouth, so it is a good deal for both clubs," he added. "I think Portsmouth have got a good price."

The signing brings Redknapp's spending since taking over at Tottenham to more than £60m. But he was keen to make further additions, despite recording four wins from the opening four games of this season, with central defence a priority. Jonathan Woodgate and Michael Dawson are both currently injured.

Tottenham approached Sunderland about a loan-swap involving Ferdinand and Alan Hutton, and although Steve Bruce was keen on bringing the Scotland defender to the Stadium of Light, he would not consider losing Ferdinand.

Redknapp said his chairman, Daniel Levy, had "made inquiries" about signing Upson but that a deal was never likely to succeed after West Ham sold James Collins to Aston Villa. Meanwhile, Redknapp's hopes of getting James were ended by Levy, who was not willing to sanction a move for a 39-year-old with little or no resale value. The deal was described by Redknapp as "never a possibility".

The arrival of Petrov was more possible but with City's interest in Bentley thought to be minimal, and Tottenham's offer for the 30-year-old too low, that transfer also fell through. Petrov's agent said his client's move fell through due to the "unwillingness" of City's manager, Mark Hughes.

Spurs believe Gomes will be fit for United

Tottenham Hotspur are confident that Heurelho Gomes will have recovered from his thigh injury before the Barclays Premier League match against Manchester United at White Hart Lane a week on Saturday. The Brazil goalkeeper has returned to training after sustaining the problem in last month’s 5-1 win away to Hull City.

Gomes’s improving fitness goes some way to explaining Tottenham’s failure to sign David James from Portsmouth this week, because Daniel Levy, the chairman, did not want to have three experienced goalkeepers on the payroll.

If Gomes has not recovered in time to face United, Tottenham will recall Ben Alnwick from his loan spell at Norwich City.

Brazil legend Ronaldo reportedly turned down moves to Tottenham and Blackburn Rovers before the summer transfer window slammed shut, claims the Daily Mail.

The 32 year old former Barcelona, Real Madrid, Inter and AC Milan striker was subject to last-minute offers from Harry Redknapp and Sam Allardyce but rejected the move to remain in Brazil with his girlfriend Maria Antony, who is rumoured to be pregnant, according to reports in the Brazilian media.
