Interesting bit from the article........
"They claim that it wasn’t Tottenham who offered the place to Brazil. It was the national team director Edu Gaspar who visited both the Spurs’ and Manchester United’s training grounds, and ended up picking the place in London.
Brazil are playing Sunday’s friendly at Anfield, so Tottenham’s training centre must have offered something much better for Gaspar not to choose staying in Manchester".
Sustainable success.
Best thing about the early kick off tonight is they won't get back too late, either
Not to complain, but doesn't it make sense to train somewhere like Dubai and get acclimatised as well
Not when you've signed a deal with Tottenham to use the facilities, it doesn't
So our training ground is now also Brazil's training ground? And England, the day before a game at Wembley?
I mean, sure it was perfect for the world cup, and other matches in Europe - but will they come all the way over when the next game is in South Africa for a friendly against Nigeria (for example)
It's the biggest complaint I think that is aimed at the Brazil national side, they are like the Harlem globetrotters.
That is utterly unreal
Can people now see how investing in things like this makes such a massive difference to our status as a football club, more so than spending in areas that really couldn't improve us for the money we had over the last couple of seasons? It looks absolutely fantastic.

I agree with you mate but you still have to invest in the squad (which thankfully it looks like we are doing.)
It doesn’t really make a difference to our status when most clubs are going down this route.
This will be Leicester’s new training ground complex when completed.
That’s Leicester.
Even Low ranking Championship clubs like Reading are building hugely impressive complexes.
The training ground is lovely but let’s not try to convince it will lead to anything other than the club having an excellent training facility.

What other teams do is up to them but from what I gather Leciesters still isn't ready yet and it seems like our new facilities have been attracting praise from the likes of Inter Milan through to the Brazil national team. It all helps our brand and status grow.
We've gone from the below photo to where the training ground photos above are now. It is vitally important when showing potential signings around and it definitely looks like a very good investment:
Money very well spent if you ask me. Now it's completed we can pay it off whilst investing in the squad improvements required moving forward.
