I genuinely don't think so but different perspective on things I guess. Biggest positive is the club having some direction again that we seemed to lose completely under Jose.We’re now officially weaker than last season

Well he is an inflatable footballer.
This has pissed me right off.
First of all we made a bid that was never going to get accepted. Too little and too late. Think Skriniar
2nd of all if we had £30m to spend where was the plan b or plan c which would've massively helped our team.
This was a buyer's market and Paratici in this case cocked it up.
Meh, 30M for Traore isn’t an insult.Paratici I don’t think so, offering a price that won’t be accepted has one persons fingerprints all over it. 20 years of fingerprints
Sounds like our first offer :nunolol:

His form has nose dived. The miss against rangers summed up his patchy form. If hes such hot property why was palace the ones to buy him not a bigger club. He might do decent there but cant see him really naking us regret not signing himWe has no chance mate, no CL, couldn't compete with the blood money super clubs like Crystal Pal...
Oh fuck it, I'm too tired of this shit to even finish my sarcasm...
Promoted to vice captain. One of our own.

Here's my thoughts.
BOTH LEVY AND PARATICI ARE TO BLAME
- Woolwich have spent about £150m. Tottenham have spent a 1/5 of that amount. Both clubs are run on a similar model. There is no reason why Woolwich would have so much more funds other than their owners decided to finally invest. Spurs are in the same position as Woolwich needing some serious investment . Both clubs want to get back into the champions league. Woolwich have gone about it the right way trying to actually get there. Whereas Tottenham as per usual have decided that they know better than everyone else and they think they can get back into the UCL with a mediocre squad. This is on LEVY
- However, Levy would've said Paratici a budget. We know 'the don' tried to buy Martinez at £65m. We know there was some money there. Everyone has been saying 'the don' has about 10 options at a time for one position . YET we were left on this deadline day with basically Traore or nothing. If 'the don' is so good where is plan a /b/ c . And don't tell me there won't players out there. Leicester got Daka for £20m. There were other ST's out there. Everyone knows this was a buyer's market. Other leagues could've been easily exploited for an attacker. It should've never been Traore or nothing. There were cheap options out there which would improve the squad as a whole. This is on PARATICI
Both are to blame. And both have dissapointed me today.
Sadly we were 1 or 2 players off a good window. Had we got in someone to repalce Bale/Vinicius and that creative midfielder (regardless of the outgoings) we would've accepted that window and given it a 8 or 9/10 perhaps.
As it stands its barely a 5/10. Yet again a window that had we made the right decisions on deadline day it could've been so promising but unfortunately Nuno's not been backed properly. How many more times are we gonna do this.
Chin up, it hasn't happened yet. Yes we will get injuries but try and enjoy it whilst its good.Everyone thinking its brilliant now 3 wins out of 3. Wait until we play those midweek games and players start getting injured for 4 or 5 weeks couple of injuries to key players will change the whole outcome on this forum we are about 3 players short at least and one is a back up striker.
I wanted TraoreThis has pleased me greatly.
I don't give a fuck who's responsible, Traore is shite.
Your 2nd paragraph, fair point.
