I don't take it as in particular the reason he left Spurs - he left to play and I think he would admit that readily. Rather I think the trophy line is directed toward why he went to Fenerbache rather than some West Brom level PL club.My view is that it's a throw away line because he thinks that's what the fans want to hear.
Ask him if he thinks he's more likely to pick up the league title in Turkey with Fenerbahce or the PL with Spurs, and he might be right in saying the former. Who knows. But ask him which trophy he would prefer to get his hands on and I think we all know the answer.
Also lets be honest, he left because he knew he wasn't going to get a game. Nothing to do with wanting to win trophies, although I'm sure he does want to, it's not why he agreed a loan away from Spurs.
No hard feelings from me. I hope he absolutely smashes it over there and comes back to us next year brimming with confidence and pushing Harry for his place.
The way i interpret it is that he opted for a loan to Fenerbahce as opposed to other sides because he knew there was a good chance that they would win something this year as the dominant team in their league.
Makes sense unless you are desperate to take it out context... and who would want to do that?
Agree with the above but Mr. Janssen with one PL goal from open play pushing Kane? Good one. I think Ben Davies would have a better chance pushing Kane with more goals in open play.My view is that it's a throw away line because he thinks that's what the fans want to hear.

If that's all he REALLY wants to do, then he could've saved himself the 5 hour flight and just signed for Celtic.The way i interpret it is that he opted for a loan to Fenerbahce as opposed to other sides because he knew there was a good chance that they would win something this year as the dominant team in their league.

yeah or he could play in Iceland. I'm sure he could win a trophy there.If that's all he REALLY wants to do, then he could've saved himself the 5 hour flight and just signed for Celtic.
They're pretty much nailed on to win something every year... until Rangers get their act together!
Rangers or our friends at Aberdeen.If that's all he REALLY wants to do, then he could've saved himself the 5 hour flight and just signed for Celtic.

Remember the Llorente deal only started on 30th August pm and finalised on 31st August. At the time Janssen was playing a World Cup qualifier and really did not have time to consider a move. The Turkish transfer window closed at a later date giving him time to consider and was the only real option. I think his comments are aimed at the Turkish supporters and rightly so as he does not know if he will be welcome back at Tottenham.
