Exactly. Don't know why people are so upset if you say we shouldn't be expecting us to regularly do it.
3rd & 2nd was overachieving in my eyes.
He was still a prospect. Not yet an established player at club in a large European league. It wasn't a case of not hearing about them, it's about hearing of them as what? By your criteria then, Dele Alli was an established star when we signed him.
Still says the same thing. We don't buy stars, we make them. Sorry your not happy that the club does it this way.
I am concentrating my sense of disappointment at Guardioka who is clearly showing developnent of homegrown players is not on his agenda. Mind you the owners won't care if he brings whatever it is they crave.
It is where the Premier League and their greed, plus us fans need our heads banging together.
We all create the monster.
Don't be so pedantic. It's obvious what you meant.
And without a shadow of a doubt, when you tell that to a City fan they'll immediately bring up the 'Bale money'.
The irony of Scott saying other people lie.
But Scott if we are having senior first team players coming out and saying publicly that there should not be a big necessity to sign players in a rush and that they believe the current squad can do the job what does that say to you? Certainly that they do not believe they are overachieving?
Rafa's star had fallen mightily the season before we bought him. He had started a 3rd of games and had a huge falling out with Pellegrini.

He's supposed to be a Spurs fan - presumably he wants to win titles - then spends a week saying you need to spend big to win titles - then denies saying we need to spend big to win titles. Slippery as fuck.
I've never thought Sissoko was the poor footballer or the cunt everyone was making out. Just looked like a player totaly bereft of confidence. Almost came across as quite lonely. I reckon he could still be a player for us.
Funny part about City's spending on the defence which is astronomical at this point is that if the relatively cheap Kompany (6m) breaks down again they're still totally fucked
Each to their own. I wouldn't see 4th as under achieving next season.
Yep. No quote where it says I want us to spend big or change 5 or 6 players.
You just make up stuff, jump to conclusions & make assumptions.
Yes, like sammy you know better than the individual person themselves what they mean. You have some special skills.
We all want the same thing I think and most of us appear to not want to go the City and Chelsea route to get there although a part of me wonders what we would do if a spendaholic owner took over.
I just want us to stay competitive but also hold a touch of the moral high ground in a hypocritical kind of paradoxical fashion.
A trophy and top 4 or another real run at the Premier would be fine.
I just don't think we are set up for it at present.
I am sure it will change before the season starts and yes, before it is said, I enjoy the idea of a paradise holiday because it would be special. The analogy?
Buying success takes away some but not all the enjoyment.
It's perfectly obvious what you mean. You're a Spurs fan right? Presumably you want to win titles? You've spent a week telling everyone you need to spend big to win titles, and you're now denying that you want us to spend big? What exactly do you want us to do? Not win anything to prove you're correct?
read below for all you need to know why I won't waste my time in arguing with you.
I bet our playing group and coaching will and that is all that matters to achieving positive results on the field.
