Feck off
They're not necessarily stronger - they just have different players who have to be integrated properly. Were we stronger after we spent the Bale money? Fuck West Ham - simply signing any old player won't improve them - have you watched them recently?
So this isn't bed wetting...
Seriously, if we can't sign a fucking 13 year old from Fulham, a boy from Argentina who has played seven (count 'em!) times for a second-rate outfit or a third-choice goalkeeper from our manager's alma mater who actually played for us we might as well pull the plug on this thread and accept that Shiloh Tracey and Samuel Shashoua will be featuring against Chelsea on 19 August
Tracey and Shadhoua will not be featuring in the squad against the Chavs as in reality there will still be the same players as last season featuring on the subs bench. As for Sessegnon he signed a new deal which should be commended as he's still developing as a player and more likely to get regular playing time. Juan Foyth is still very much in negotiation. And Lopez can be had for free in year's time.
Can't see it. As has been mentioned on other sites, if it were true then we'd not even be bothering to sign him. It'd be a swift "feck off".
It seems to me the people melting on here are those like you who can't seem to accept that some of us have serious concerns about our transfer activity.(or lack of) As soon as someone brings it up, a load of you fill your fucking nappies and throw your rattles out the pram.
Edit. For our American friends, nappies are what you call diapers.

Tell you what, I'm actually excited. Lamela and Son have both gone through what Vincent and GKN have (he's shit, get rid) in their first season and then torn it a new one once they had a full pre-season.
As far as I'm concerned we have two new signings already... though I'll concede they still might turn out to be rubbish.
Who knows, with a nice summer in the US Poch might even take our massive French steamer and roll him in glitter. Fun times.
Just read that Michael Cox thread, talks so much sense yet many cannot seem to understand that buying new players isn't the guarantee of success compared to keeping a highly developed squad together.
I'd be very surprised if that number is true though. Everyone knows our cap, why would you even start talking?
Can't see where he'd fit into their first 11 either? Unless he's replacing Fibreglass who isn't a starter.
Don't bother mate they still don't get it, it's been proved over 3 seasons anyone who wants to get better under Poch and can hack the pack will get better, solved the Dembele problem, turned the head of Eriksen and Jan back to loving the club, turns punts like Dier and Dele into England regulars, Rose and Walker from Jokes to world beaters and now you see the same incline in form in the next full back set
Technically when Poch came along we got 12 new signings instantly as they become different players than those under AVB/Weasel, and they get better all the time, I would rather have anyone who has been training with Poch than anyone out there that's why it's tough to improve
Wanyama was the uninspiring signing last summer in the shadow of Janssen and now look, if Barkley or anyone comes and wants to give Poch their best, he will at least double their value and they will contribute to another successful season
It didn't occur to you that by calling Sessegnon a "13 year old" indicated that I just might have been exaggerating?
Look feller, just block me or whatever it is, I can't be fucked anymore
Don't think Wanyama was uninspiring. I though he was going to be a beast from the get go. How right i was.
Signing of the year if the press didnt hate us as much as they do
The thread diverts off to another (so when on his page click his reply tab) but he absolutely destroys one bloke who thinks he is being clever by saying we will be the same, reminding him that our points total we got last year would have won the title in all but two years in the history of the PL ergo if we stayed the same there is a 95% chance of us winning the league by staying the same.
In another, I like that he even uses the brainwashing by twitter banter and the media bashing of Spurs, calling "bottler" tag a meme that people have bought into.
Well you were the minority and that's exactly my point, look at that player's performance level with and without Poch, he was getting better throughout the season too
