No direct quotes but two pieces of evidence are the post Soton presser and prior to that, Contes general apathy and downbeat manner throughout his second season - post transfer window closing. We spent, but it was pretty obvious we didn’t secure his primary targets

Cheap spares have no business being in our squad.
He hated Bale for some weird reason. Was it Spurs so much?
I think this is exactly that, we have got him for a bargain price to boost the squad.
The new manager must be on board with this, the backline is a weak link, which he was part of that.
I suppose if, we are not going to pay out large sums on CBs, then this is the alternative.
Isn’t there some middle ground here? Tell Kane to give us one more year but extend his contract but a release clause in it or some agreement that he can go next year if we get a good offer.
I kind of agree, but not really. If we went out and bought a bunch of players that Kane thought would make us genuinely compete, he'd stay.

Lloris himself wasn't tried and tested in the Premier League.
I don't see Vicario as a cheap punt. More of a well scouted individual who is ready to take the next step.
Raya would have been a good keeper for Conte and a counter attacking team. Personally I think he's overrated and definitely not worth £40m considering he has one year left on his deal. He definitely won't be sold for that.
Thats not really middle ground though. Kane gains nothing from it, just us.
I agree.
I did listen to it for a while but was way too reactionary and it became very predictable.
Win a match = all the players are great, will we turn it around etc
Lose a match = sell the players, the manager is crap, Levy out.
Gonna be a loyalist and say the Fighting Cock Podcast with Flav is much better! I like the fact the podcast isn't straight after the game, they actually give themselves a chance to analyse and think about stuff rather than reactionary crap.
So happy with this Maddison signing, he’s a top top player. Was very confused that some on here preferred Eze to him. I’ve watched them both countless times and Maddison is a different class all together for me.
Big signing for us, adds much needed creativity and scores a lot of goals too. We hopefully wont be so reliant on Kane and Son for that.

seen the good news and then seen lenglet i told you if we are neglecting our cb's this summer we are fucked, we are fine scoring but crap defending
And winks going in the other direction too is a bonus.
£40 million for Maddison is a great bit of business!
if the alternative was maguire....
Well done to both Spurs and Leicester for finally getting the deal through.....he is the best English player after Kane.
Credit to Leicester for selling for 40m, which is a bargain for a player worth double that amount really
