Sissoko was a massive flop - £30mill at the time was serious money and he was garbage for 85% of his time with us. Lamela probably was as well. I say probably as I think injury ruined his time with us.

Sissoko played a HUGE part in our getting to the CL final and top 4 in 19/20. EDIT 18/19

Garbage 85% of the time is pure fiction. The way he was treated by our supporters in his first season for us was embarrassing and each one of them should be thankful he is a model professional and was committed to proving them all wrong.

No news about the jet landing ?

Levy paying off the airport where they’re telling the plane to needlessly circle.

He started as garbage and ended as garbage, but he was surprisingly good in the middle.

Sissoko is almost exactly like Hojberg imo.

Can't say either is a flop.

Neither of them are Spurs CMs and both weren't well scouted for this club.

But both have been effective performers. Sissoko was in a team that got to the CL final ...
 
But the Kane situation should have zero fucking implication on signing defenders or selling any players. None at all.
The stupid thing is that Levy wants Spurs in the Champions League not just for the income it brings but for the exposure which ’should’ make it more appealing to prospective stadium naming rights interested parties. In order to do that he needs to spend really big especially with the competition increasing. City, Liverpool,Woolwich,Man Utd, Newcastle,Chelsea and now Villa are all prepared to spend more money than us. Is Levy relying too much on Ange ,hoping that he can work miracles?

Sissoko’s first season was godawful, his performance in the 0-1 defeat to Leverkusen was one of the worst I have ever seen at this level.

Thankfully Poch quickly realised that he could not play as an attacking midfielder and turned him into a bulldozer CM as backup to Dembele. He was generally adequate in this role until his limitations could no longer be masked by Eriksen and Dele.

He was signed as our Mane alternative and by that measure he completely flopped, but as a makeshift CM he did well. He was a regular player in our top 4 teams.
 
apart from Kane I guess we'll see quite a few outgoings this week, or at least solid links. Now the tour is done Angie will have gotten a flavour of those who arent going to make it. Ndombele, Rodon and Spence at the top of the list it would seem, along with Sanchez and obviously hugo
Permament exits I hope, constant loans only mean the same problem occurs agin in a year’s time.

I dreaded watching us with Sissoko in a CM 2 with Winks.

the fact that we got to the CL Final with those 2 is a credit to Eriksen and Dele and our defenders imo.

Sissoko did a professional job for us but he was a classic case of the club signing what they can afford instead of affording what they like/need.

I will never think about that squad with anything other than regret for the club not pushing the boat out and signing a few more top class players to push them over the edge.
