4th place just isn’t a realistic target for the ENIC project as conceived.

There are now four clubs who are financed with the legitimate aim of being the best club on earth and all of them have better squads than us and are investing to improve them.

Honestly I’m not sure how anyone breaks the emergent Big Four. It would take a very high level of funding and football sophistication and we have neither.
Nothing stop us from following a football politic like Liverpool. Just that we don’t don’t employ the right persons at the right functions.

Disagree. Agree that ENIC is actively shooting itself in the foot by being short sighted, and that makes top 4 an increasingly difficult goal to achieve. But not impossible. There's too many hiccups in a season to create that level of certainty. See leicster winning the league, Liverpool dropping this season dramatically from their prior 3 years of form, etc. Even the champions only had 86 or whatever points, a historically low level points total.

The league if anything is getting MORE competitive. Big sides are dropping more points to non big sides than before.

The issue is Tottenham isn't keeping up with lower level clubs with long term vision and investment in football. We certainly are with infrastructure. But not footballing operations.
 
Not if it means staying at Brighton

I will try to be positive whoever we get,but this doesnt feel like the manager we need at this time,to say the least.
Horrible feeling we would be looking again come January.
No excited over this at all.
Could be paper bollo,we'll see.
