Thoughts? Would you let him go if right amount came in?

So as someone who was non-plussed with Hart when I expected him to "compete" for the backup role but was clearly a third-choice homegrown body, the prospect of Hart getting any sort of minutes this season is terrifying. He's fucking awful.

If we do let Gazzaniga go than we absolutely need to bring in a keeper that should be expected to beat out Hart.

not often with Spurs and Levy, but maybe Mourinho put his foot down?

Quite possibly.

Or its the fact that Levy trusts in a man that has won multiple titles wherever he has gone in a short space of time; 1-4 seasons. The evidence suggests that experienced players, that are from a slightly older generation are more adept at understanding Mou's way of thinking tactically and motiation. Althought this cant be said in generalities. I think the documentary is going to show how well versed he is in both disciplines.

It could also be becaue the recruitment staff are a bit more clued up with the analytical and data driven approach that has come to the fore over the last 5-6 seasons. Not just shelling out on potentials, with the likes of Foyth, Sess etc. Although this data approach can only be attributed to so much vs. obvious potential for younger players.

We arent going to sign world beaters, until we become world beaters or very close to consistenly challenging the current world beaters.

I like the PEH, Hart and potential Doherty signing. Experience and character mean a lot to a team challenging to get back to a certain base level of succes, like we are currently doing under Jose.

If we become a solid, water tight team on the pitch with consistent W's next season then the net spend shouldnt really be taken in to account or grumbled at. Its the destination, as they say, not the path taken that is important with Mou's tenure. If we 1-0 and 0-1 the likes of Chelsea home and away next season, then this place should be pretty happy with that.

Am I wrong?

Tbh, swapping 2 awful foreign allocated keepers for 1 awful HG keeper seems like smart business to me.

I am more than happy winning 1-0 I think the team will be more solid this season but will be attack minded when needed to.
The signings to date are solid if not spectacular and maybe we need that, who knows maybe the club will pull off a last minute wow signing.
I feel strangely comfortable that Jose knows what he is doing and building, and if you can't trust a serial winner like him who do you trust?
