O' Hara on the move as the board gets shirty over Modric saga

Outgoing transfer alert! We've sold Jamie O'Hara to Wolves for £5million. Is it really a coincidence that this happens immediately after the Luka Modric saga stepped up a gear?

Chairman Levy was always adamant that we need to sell before we buy and Modric's suggestion that he wants to leave has now sparked our summer into action.

The official line is that we can match Modric's ambition and are prepared to prove that by bringing in the big names necessary to mount a serious Top 4 assault next term.

If that's the case, then the O'Hara sale is a good sign that the wheels are in motion and we can expect a few more to follow relatively soon as the club look to free up funds for some major signings.

The club have also released pictures of the new home strip for next season. I'm pretty sure that the last one was meant to last the full two seasons as promised and we weren't all going to have to go and buy yet another new home shirt?

Irked or annoyed you may be, but the club have a foolproof cure for this... it's Luka Modric, in the new Spurs shirt, surely they wouldn't release a picture of him in the suave, retro-style new kit and still sell him. Look how happy he is, he must be staying. Last year's shirt? we've forgotten it already.





What everyone's keenly rejecting to notice is that, in our new away shirt Modric looks more than a little bit like he's wearing the colours of a certain local rival.

Maybe that's part of the Modric stay-put package, "If you stay and play for us, we'll let you wear a Chelsea shirt, hell, you can all wear Chelsea shirts.
