I agree. But 13 people and counting agreeing with such a disgusting comment!!
Sadly not sure about the stadium anymore giving us financial power . Not Levy’s fault but we have been so unlucky with the pandemic and now a cost of living crisis that will decimate the sports , entertainment and hospitality industry. Desperately hope I am wrong but Q4 onwards things are going to get horrifically tough for so many now I fearYou seem to be missing VERY basic and fundamental point.
New and bigger stadium gives the club stronger cashflow for the future. It means we can play higher salaries to players.
I am 100% sure that if it was not for the new stadium, we would have lost either Son or Kane within past few years.
But right now we can go out and pay them + some others 300 or 400 kpw and it would not matter much.
So that is long term plan and effect of the stadium.
CL ? FFS we have yet to kick the ball there, how and why are you trying to claim like ship from UEFA HQ has just docked in London and they are currently loading us bags full of crisp bills as we speak ?!?!
Despite all that I agree with you - I do believe we have both means (liquidity) and willingness to spend on right player. Question is - how much? Current market has gone full-blown mad. Anthony close to 100 mil. Fofana and Gvardiol ~80 mil. Isak >60 mEUR. I am not sure we should in fact go along with this shit if there is a belief we could use funds better in winter window or next summer.
We have invested >160 million euros to the squad. And there is still Kulusevski buy out clause to be added in some point in time.
Why is it essential that we would end the window pennyless and then hope and pray for the better future?
I don't personally get it - does the fact that we have say 80 mil left in bank for transfer market purposes is negative fact on it's own? Cause I do not think so personally.
I mean come on ! I know Yorkshire & Lancashire arent the best of friends but at least spell Lancashire right !?!?
That's fair.
But when a player (Bastoni) says outright that he doesn't want to leave Italy there's not a lot anyone can do.
No doubt some will say of we offered him/club more money then he'd come.
Probably true but unrealistic.
not over until its over manLads , fucking relax FFS
We are NOT going to sign James or Traore.

That dude is literally a Woolwich fan. Why would you even post that? There’s already enough mentally ill morons here no need to post moron pollution.
Genuinely such a ridiculous post.I’m a bit sick of seeing people ask for lists of “available” players in any position. They are ALL fucking available Ronaldo was available, Neymar Jr was available, Bale, Messi, Sala, Lukaku, De Bruyne, Haaland and on and on.
You just have to pay the asking price and be a desirable place to go for the player.
Give me a list of available RWB’s is such a fucking miserable and stupidly pointless request to somehow justify why we have not bought one.
Lads , fucking relax FFS
We are NOT going to sign James or Traore.

Wow!!
And posted on a site that that's actively supports and is Partnered with the mental health charity CALM
It's just a football forum for God's sake
I'm not sure who should be more ashamed of themselves. You, or the 13 people who have so far agreed with this shit![]()
I assume you must be one of one’s asking for said lists then?What an excellent idea, maybe you should send this to the DOF, reckon it could catch on.
Dier and Davies were not here prior to Poch. Jesus Christ surely you could have bothered your arse to do a quick fact check on that!Dier and Davies signed before Poch, Alderweireld signed because his Belgian colleague was already at Spurs and long stranding links to Spurs.
Son came as he/his agent were unhappy at his previous German club refusing to allow him to compete at Asian Games (not a FIFA tournament and takes a month out of season) important to Son as winning them game him exemption from National Service where he would have lost 2 years of football from age 28 (and a fortune in wages). Levy agreed to let him go to next tournament after signing - he captained South Kore to winning Asian Games making him biggest sports star in South Korea - and very grateful that Spurs kept their word which is why Son signed a new contract when he did.
So Wanyama - you are probably right even though with one year as a top footballer and 3 always injured, not a great signing. Congratulations though. You got one right out of 5,
We had quite a few like that! Ndombele and Alli most recently!I didn't realise that was his first league goal for us.
What a goal though. And in that game, too.
I still maintain he had talent. He was just a total prat.
The first part of that post fine and what people are likely 'liking'I agree. But 13 people and counting agreeing with such a disgusting comment!!
Place is becoming a cesspit
Dele was top drawer for a good few years though. Bentley, not so. Great on rare occasionsWe had quite a few like that! Ndombele and Alli most recently!
Anti Levy mob ;

Paul Mitchell, a very close ally of Pochettino who reportedly resigned because the club were not backing him (and assumably Poch) by ignoring the majority of his targets?
Yep,The first part of that post fine and what people are likely 'liking'
