So we've spent over 105m net with perhaps another 50m net this window ... how is that as you claimed "We've also sold for nearly as much" .... since when does 155m no longer count?

Have you got a spare 155m I can take off your hands?
You made it sound like we've gone on a City style shopping spree - not to mention we're also on the brink of selling Rose and Wanyama

Nothing has changed - we're still operating the same way

No I didn't, and no we are not. I just responded to the repeated erroneous claims that we haven't spent any money ... we've spent net 150m in three years a direct reflection on our increased income ...

Nobody denies that for 15 years our net spend was bugger all squared, but that's when we had a 35,000 stadium and made barely 10m a year profit ... wake up and smell the coffee that's not us anymore ... we've done the long hard years now we can start to spend the rewards, prepare to enjoy the ride.

We've spent 100m not 150m net. Our stadium is nowhere near close to being paid off. We don't even have a name sponsor. Our last 2 signings this window confirmed NOTHING has changed in terms of our transfer policy of young cheap punts whit potential. Why is that such an issue to point out?
 
Done deal

Because it's bollocks ... we have increased income by 200m a year ... that's NOT THE SAME

Everything about the club has changed but if our 850m spaceship in N17 doesn't show you, then nothing anyone can say will convince you either ....
 
The goons turned on him so will the chavs - he will be a good second striker or 20 minute super sub - you can't beat winning and he's got a World Cup medal ... knows the EPL inside out. For the right price why not? even if he hardly ever plays his experience would be worth having just for our academy.
 
Which bit? money from 16/17/18 spent in the following year ...

2017 - Sanchez 40m, Moura 28m, Aurier 25m, llorente 15m, Foyth 13m
2018 - Nobody
2019 - Ndombele 66m, Sessegnon 27m, LoCelso 16m, Clarke 11m

So we spent nearly 250m .... add to that the 80m we look like spending this window LoCelso 32m and with luck Bergwijn 25m and one other @25m .... so what have you missed? what's not true?


For a start you've missed out net spend and profits between June 2018 and June 2019 granted you don't know what that is yet but to simply it pretend it doesn't exist is misleading
 
My top 3 most despicable players:

Wilshere
Alonso
Giroud

I know that it isn’t part of the equation, but seeing him in a Spurs shirt would kill a small part of me inside, so I wouldn’t mind missing out on him.

Him or no striker at all, I don’t know what I would prefer tbh.
Well at least Giroud hasn't murdered anyone.

Jury's still out on Fat-Tongue Jack, I wouldn't rule it out
