I hope Man Utd totally agree
Honeydew one
If this guy ain't the future of football, I'll be damned. I can barely contain my excitement when I think about him.
I think Chelsea, Woolwich and pool have demonstrably better returns from their youth squads
I mean i think; Gallagher , Gilmour, Reece James, mount , Hudson odoi , chalobah all get in or challenge our first 11
I agree with you.
I also think we haven’t had enough talent coming through without the poor methodology we’ve employed
Jack Clarke is on just over 30k a week.
But getting in a backup striker is too hard. *does pyramid hands*
You don’t own something unless you have 50.1% of it, otherwise you’re just along for the ride.
As for Levy, he’s made good money being in business with Lewis clearly, but he’s a lackey. Levy’s wealth isn’t liquid, it’s tied up in the value of the club. Lewis has a vast portfolio and plenty of liquid cash, he’s the only one who could feasibly invest money into the club.
Spurs were recently assessed to be worth £700m, Lewis owns 70% of that and is worth £5b. So his stake in Spurs is a pretty small fraction of his overall wealth, unlike Danny. Shame Bahamas Joe likes David Hockney more than football. The 90m he spent on that painting would get us a box to box midfielder, LCB, and RWB.
Not surprised nothing came of this. We don’t buy 29 year olds.
I don’t follow pal. I can’t see how being that way disposed has any bearing
But I do agree that we’re going to take the mother of all haircuts
Conte does though, so it will be interesting to see his expectations versus our reality.
Probably the best player in the league, 80m seems excessive though.
Left winger, cuts inside and finds himself in scoring positions (hence the high number of goals he scores), very technical yet direct, without pointless step overs, etc. Decent pace, all in all reminds me a bit of Simão Sabrosa, ex-Benfica player who famously almost signed for Liverpool many years ago. Reportedly was already on the plane ready to fly to England, when Benfica asked more money and the deal collapsed.
I would buy him.
RESPECT THE COCK
Just watched 5 mins of YT. Boy's got some moves hasn't he. I vaguely remember watching him score that last minute winner against Lyon, but wasn't paying any particular attention to him (he only came on for the last few minutes of that game) aside from thinking it was a composed finish for a kid.
Physically he's quite unusual isn't he. Those YT clips reminded me a little of Kanu.
Hitchens got to go hasn’t he? Sure we don’t shop from the very finest of establishments but it’s only the level down after city, Chelsea and some of the European elite and he’s been an unmitigated disaster
Just dud after dud after dud
We don't know what the rest of Levy's personal portfolio looks like, he's been involved with Lewis' private equity world for much longer than they've owned Spurs and has his own property interests.
Regardless, the point is, Levy gets compared to the likes of Ed Woodward, who is merely an employee of Manchester United. Levy is much more than that at Spurs, crucially he's much less easy to sack than Woodward is.
It's unbelievable he's still here.
His appointment in February 2017 to present has been the total destruction of the quality of our squad. Lots of blame to go around, but Hitchen has no successes to point to in his defense.
Youve an argument to make. It’s valid
That’s until you use poch as the aggrieved…. The geezer literally wanked away any serious money Enic supplied him
And it pains me to say that as I loved the fella
