Nelson to Tottenham in a swap deal

[pafc 4eva]

Apparently Spurs are lining up a move that would see Nelson go to them in exchange for Button and money that will be paid depending on how many games he plays for Spurs, when he gets his first cap for England. Nelson will then be loaned back for the season to give him time to get a house etc. in London and play games.

So why do we have to wait for him to be capped before he is loaned back :?

I think what he means is- We will get extra installments after he gets his first England cap.

But for the first season, he will be loaned back. Interesting Rumour, not sure if 1) Button would join us perm. and 2) If Spurs would let Button go.

Id love to see button down here perm, but just cant see it. Would spurs let him go? i dunno

Best be a sell on clause imagine it now he is sold for 25m to Man U and we get zilch haha.

Yes but Button did enjoy his time here, and realistically he is not going to play for Spurs unless all the keepers get injured (league cup and FA cup games aside) as I cannot see Harry using him over the likes of gomes and cudcini.
Also I believe that Nelson is far more a better prospect for spurs than Button as they could create another Kyle Walker style player

Can see Button leaving Spurs as he must be 4-5 choice goalie there,but i dont know about him coming to us. :mrgreen:

As if Button will go to a League Two side.

He could easily play regular PL football one day, he's not going to hinder his progress by coming here permanently.

Regular PL football for a goalkeeper is extremely difficulty, not easy. I can't see him being a regular PL goalkeeper in his career.

Do agree with you that it would be a strange move for him to lower himself down to League Two though.

Perhaps there was an element of hyperbole in that statement, but let's just say I wouldn't be at all surprised if he did play regular Premier League football.

He's still very young and I think a lot of Argyle fans didn't realise just how good a keeper we really did have last season.

Button is a very very good goalkeeper, and I think he'd have to be incredibly silly to move down to league 2 permanently as said above because he could have a bright future ahead of him.

Is this just what you'd like to see or is this actually happening? What do you mean by 'apparently'?
By the way, I'd love to see Button back here, but he's not Premier League quality! :lol:
He's been on loan to 10 different clubs from League One to Conference level. Don't get too ahead of yourself!

Pafc 4eva, you've been reading transferrmoursbollocks.com

Don't believe anything you read on there!

 

[Shadowknight]

So, is this assuming Cole doesn't stay?

Nelson is very good, but his true potential as a CB will not be identified IMHO, until his full height/size can be identified. Wherever you look in the Premiership CB's are big, tall guys. Just look at Jones just signed by MUFC, Samba, Dawson at Spurs, Ferdinand, Cahill, Huth, I could go on for ever. I am not saying Spurs will not be prepared to take a punt, for they have the funds to do so.

Young Nelson will possibly become 6ft 2/3inches and should he do so, I think he will be excellent and will have a Premiership career, as he has a great skill set and attitude.
