Can’t believe people are still bitching in a window where we could be signing 5 new starters

Oooo, got a couple questions. Your statement suggests that getting 5 new starters is a good thing that supporters should be excited and happy about. I agree and fair enough...but if 5 new starters were so easily acquired (for less than 50M and a loan) that also suggests that 5 new starters were very much needed.

My question to you is were you complaining beforehand when the same folks that are so easily satisfying your desires now had left the team in such dire need of quality that 5 new starters could be so easily acquired? Or were you as uncritical as you are now about these 5 new starters?

The irony of that post when you have "Hercules" typing from the confounds of his mums basement, pure waffle and they treat him like a God. I was banned on there once after typing " 1 guy on here really perplexes me, not sure if a parody or not " and I had 40/50 of the posters just DM me "Hercules?" 😂

because they are all shit scared of Adolf A&C Hitler waving his willy around and banning people. Just the other day he went on the ITK thread and quotes a few guys who were going off topic and just puts “I’ll deal with these guys later “

what a complete tosser he truly is

The kid is undoubtedly talented, but i haven't seen him progress at the same sort of pace as say Kane and Son which given his young age may have be the reason.

I would hate to see him sold, but his all round game has declined. Jose appears to have put a rocket up his arse and perhaps that's what was needed.

With other options now for his starting spot perhaps he will now pull his finger out.

Levy even had me convinced that we were poor little injured kittens this window. It looks increasingly likely that it was simply the image we wanted to put out while negotiating with Southampton for Højbjerg and Wolves for Doherty.

This a lot of the problem every transfer window though. Fans read club attributed quotes saying "we have no money", "we must sell first before buying", "we are not interested in anyone this window" when 9 times out of 10 it is simply a smoke screen but the reaction it gets from social media and our own fans is way disproportionate.
If Levy and the club came out saying we had lots of money and were happy to spend big then we would get ripped off by almost every club we approached.
Have we not all supported Spurs long enough and seen enough transfer windows to know how it works and take any media/social media attributed quote with a hefty pinch of salt and apply some common sense.

And yet come the last day of the TW he will be putting out the begging bowl asking for money for the upkeep of the site.

And yet there will be gullible fuckers handing over money to someone they have never met over the internet.

Stupid fuckers the lot of them.

you are being heavily discussed on Spurs community as we speak,

The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 22nd September 2020

I assume you're joking as I wasn't aware he left. I also liked him and he had decent info. That’s what he said on tfc
www.spurscommunity.co.uk www.spurscommunity.co.uk

Few of them are proper bitching about you, including the mod Rob 😅 it’s like an ITK dick waving contest
 
I think Dele was dropped and was told to find another club if he thinks he should be an automatic starter. His agent has spoken to Real Madrid and PSG but failed to entice any bids. Now Dele might realise he is fighting for his career and we see how good he can be. A good time to try this for José, if Dele left he would get a good transfer fee and time to buy a replacement. If he doesn’t hopefully he will be 100% motivated now to train hard and perform

Has anyone on there noticed my OP. Anyone grateful for the free advertising?

Was I happy with the team beforehand? No. It was obvious we needed to improve. But I wasn't one of the people saying "shut up guys, we aren't going to sign anyone" or "don't get your hopes up, we aren't going to do anything". I was willing to give Levy and the club time to sort out the window. And in my eyes, they have done a fine job improving the team. If you want to continue criticizing them for past failures, sure, go for it. But my post was referring to people who are still upset at this window. We signed 3 players fairly quickly. Added 2 superb players last week. And are now heavily linked with 2 additional players who would fill two holes that the majority of the people here agree need to be addressed.

I do have some hope that he feels the pinch this season, knowing that he'll have to impress more with the minutes he has on the field. Hopefully it forces him to refine his game and clean up his wastefulness in possession. He's been tough to watch at times recently, but he does have a unique nose for scoring and creating chances when he's on his game.

Jaysus, man. I'd have a bit of that. Fuck all these gits that can't run or do jack with the ball at their feet.

It is insane that we are being linked with Kim for the same amount (or more) and yet almost zero chance we make a move on a player like this that is clearly available and likely better now with so much of a higher upside.

Yes I got banned from the transfer section for saying early in a transfer window " I will come back in a few weeks to see if anything has happened".
That got me a ban so ridiculous, in fact that was one of the windows when we bought no one.
I get not slagging off itk has they share what they know to keep fan's interested, but it's very heavy handed on what you can say.
