Too many points dropped at home -- Brighton, Villa, Newcastle, Woolwich, Newcastle, Liverpool. If we had taken 9 points from the 6 home defeats we would be laughing.

Who knows?
I have gone a bitHonest John though ... if any incoming manager is told the ceiling for transfers is £30 million, and mostly it will be around £15 million from relegated teams, then where we are now is about where we can ever reach.
I guess we might get top 4 playing a more attacking style in the best case, but without better players we aren't going to the next level.
Why would any manager be told that? Have you not seen our net spend since stadium revenue started coming in?
With Richarlison and Romero as outliers most of our transfers are in the £15-30 million range, if transfermarkt is any guide anyway.
Our new home is such a fortress isn't it shocking.
But grab some popcorn and enjoy the other activities on offer.
Richy
Romero
Ndombele
GLC
Sanchez
EDIT: Ooooops... I forgot Porro too.

Ah sorry i thought you were talking overall budget rather than individual fees - i think that can be explained by the fact we need to spread the budget quite thin due to needing to rebuild so a high number of players coming in over the last few windows - if we need to buy less then the money available for each deal will increase.
GLC was £28 million unless you add his loan fee and transfer fee together.
Sanchez "up to" £38 million depending on who knows what add ons?
Less said about Ndombele the better, that one might have been the final straw for Poch getting the push.
From what I can see we buy more players than e.g. Liverpool or United, but they pay more for the players they buy.
Well we ought to considering we certainly weren't in the business of paying 12m loan fees!
First 5 links on google:
Tottenham complete club-record signing of Davinson Sánchez from Ajax = Up to 42m
Tottenham sign Davinson Sanchez from Ajax = Up to 40m
Tottenham announce Sanchez signing = Club record 42m
Tottenham sign Davinson Sanchez for £42million from Ajax = Reported to be 42m
Tottenham's Sanchez extends contract to 2024 = Reported to be 42m
Fair to say it's above 30m.
Not the point.... You were talking price-tags above 30m.
My list stands.
EDIT: Ooooops... I forgot Porro too.

We signed Sanchez about 9 years ago ffs
( Another reply from someone not following the conversation. :roll: )
All that ranting and raving on the ENIC thread about Spurs not winning trophies and the board being parasites the great ranter John or Joan as he was known back then greatest night as a Spurs fan was a Semi Final win.
But we're all the unambitious ones
Terrible record for so called elite coach! His assurance has the hall to say him coming back will give everyone a lift or whatever is bs!
Porro £40m kulu was over £30m
Anyone else feel like it makes no dfference which manager we have and which players we sign?
It will just be the same shit?
It will just be the same shit?
I'm not keen to put such a theory into practice.
..........Unless you think putting Levy in charge of Southampton would see them placed where we are now instead. : P
Oh...
That particular post wasn't about Levy. More about football in general.
