I’m not really concerned how much money they flipped, I’m just concerned how much player power went missing from the 7…..Eriksen the only success, and we cling to a few cameos per season from the consistent injury guru that is Lamela…

I know what you mean. One man so good he won games on his own. Replaced by 7 men each of whom were inferior, with 5 of them being so shit they couldn’t likely win at school sports day and even then one of them turned out to be one footed, injury prone and a bit weird :coys:

I'll make no comment on that as I've only ever read a few pieces from them on Spurs, however a publication attempting to be high brow whilst only reporting on sports just screams of hipster try hard, like they've decided to rehash the Daily Sport but without the tits...

However, being slandered by an ITK.. pot, kettle, etc...

It’s gonna be a shit show in the club social media when they officially announce Fonseca. I really feel for the guy. Doesn’t deserve the vitriol abuse that will get just from the start.

Agree. But on the other hand do we deserve to see the man who Marco Silva beat to the Everton job as our new manager.

Is Jorge Mendes just like a cheap suit sales man ? “this one in Disco blue sir ?” “This one with the high lapels sir?” “This Zorro costume sir?”

Fonseca is much better than Silva imo. But still not what we should aspire.

but he is cheap and willing to work with the squad we have and won’t make a scene when we sell Kane. A yes man.
 
The guy has more experience than Potter or Parker, both of whom were put forward.
Semi Final of Europa Cup with a worse squad.
Just needs to make a strong start and all this nonsense will be forgotten.
He is not alone and Patrichi is likely to make all the big decisions about purchases.
Let him just try to mould this lot into a team that can defend and attack.
 
*still maintain that Fonseca won't happen*


Regardless, we're on our way back to the dark days folks.
Players told they "can leave"
Like they're gonna just say "toodle pip" and go?
I doubt any of them will take pay cuts to go to smaller teams and outside of Kane and Son, who is gonna get a better offer than we're already paying them?

It's not a case of "you can leave" it's a case of "you're leaving"
Let's be clear, if Winks earns £50k a week and Fulham offer him £10k we should take the transfer fee and sub the wages until his Spurs deal runs out.
 
Let's also be clear, if Levy was to halt a move for an absolute nobody and get a partial somebody after fan pressure, then that is a massive fucking WIN not embarrassing.
