Which, for me anyway, is why we need to spend good money on a young striker who can start as our 9 in Europe/cup/Kane absence, and is also there and abouts good enough to play with him in a two or in the wider roles of the 3-4-3. Gouri, Iheanacho.. the likes of Alvarez mentioned above or De Ketelaere / Breteton.. though I've not seen much of those three.We wanted him, but he didn’t want to be backup to Kane. Who can blame him ?
Besides, he literally hasn’t been fit for them. So I’d hardly look at that a shining example of what we should have done.
I think we massively underestimate how hard it is to convince human beings to pick up their life and move somewhere else. And imagine doing that when you know you’ll be Harry Kane’s stunt double
He banned the summer AND the Winter window that season.I'm sure that's something Daniel Levy would vote for, he banned the summer one in 2018
Within our hands with 4 matches to go = "Pretty" close..... It's wasn't a 'calculator' moment.
As far as the 'battle for 10th' ( : P ) goes there were 4 more teams worse than us.
Resuming our little guessing game from yesterday, btw........Are you Arcspace in disguise?
I thought you were the master of facts? All football clubs are businesses. Can we get real please? Doesn't mean you can't support them as a football club due to loyalty to your roots.
It's also pretty unnecessary to call it condescending shite.
I've offered my opinion.
I think to group everyone that supports change at the club into the category of 'shit-flinging baboons' is arguably more condescending.
Change comes through discussion and convincing others. If not a forum, where else can someone share these thoughts to such a wide Spurs audience.
A mobilisation isn't ready yet, that is clear. There needs to be more widespread agreement among fan base. Right now it seems pretty 50 50.
Hahahhaha
He thinks most fans are still pro-Levy
As has been pointed out to you on numerous occasions by others, you saying 'fact' at the end of one of your opinions doesn't make it a fact. I'm not necessarily saying I disagree with your opinion - but that it is nonetheless an opinion, not a fact.We have the most shit to sort out of all those around us - fact
3 points from 10th.
5 points from 4th.
Which is closest?
I think you need to get real and instead oh hiding behind semantics; actually absorb andxrespobd to the meaning behind what is said.
Not all..... My reply explains why but it seems you're more intent on broadcasting your feelings than engaging with my retort.
You'll note in this exchange I've not challenged your opinion on how the clubs being run.
Perhaps that's the way you took that statement; but let me be perfectly clear..... There are some here (and therefore I assume elsewhere) that articulate their frustrations in a less toxic manner......
The loudest, most persistent voices however.....
Why not?
Peeps have been banging this drum for years...... "Over a decade" they'll eagerly tell you.
Could it be that like I said; they're going about it in a poor, ineffective fashion.....?
Exactly. We are not going to have no signings now, but 6/7 in the summer.One of the big problems with not singing 2-3 players now is we know wholesale changes (6-7 players) is too much at once. We need new blood in gradually so there is a more manageable transition, players can learn from each other. Again, for this reason, I know it’s costly and supplies might be thinner but this window is almost more important to me than the summer. I will also show intent and send a message to the rest of the squad that if you are shit, you’ll be replaced
I do agree with you that this is a place where we can all discuss, but when we do so we shouldn't just be trying to convince each other of our opinions, we should also be trying to understand why other people have different opinions to us, and thereby respect their right to do so.I thought you were the master of facts? All football clubs are businesses. Can we get real please? Doesn't mean you can't support them as a football club due to loyalty to your roots.

You're right - our squad totally isn't shit and we dont need to improve..As has been pointed out to you on numerous occasions by others, you saying 'fact' at the end of one of your opinions doesn't make it a fact. I'm not necessarily saying I disagree with your opinion - but that it is nonetheless an opinion, not a fact.
... Then Ndombele requested to be transferred before ever kicking a ball for Spurs.he was definitely responsible for Ndombele.
***I'm not blaming him for that, I'm just saying he wanted his man and got him for 60M
But as the 23-year-old told L’Equipe after making the move, it was Pochettino who was the deciding factor.
I didn't say that at all. It's as if you don't understand what words mean sometimes.You're right - our squad totally isn't shit and we dont need to improve..
My bad
What I do understand is that Levy apologists know no shame and that makes me very sadI didn't say that at all. It's as if you don't understand what words mean sometimes.
Stop sitting on the fence, how do you really feel about ENIC & Levy?What I do understand is that Levy apologists know no shame and that makes me very sad
I'd love to have a 1v1 with Levy - ask him a couple of questions, etc.Stop sitting on the fence, how do you really feel about ENIC & Levy?
