Please explain to me how all the other top clubs can manage it but plucky old Spurs could never?
Europe the only factor? Convenient for our first season out of it in forever.
And not all positions are created equal. Not saying we need 4 top class CBs. Just one more in and leave Sanchez/Phillips as 4th choice and that will do. But having only 1 truly creative midfield is a crazy risk.
We have the perfect opportunity with selling PEH too. Replace him with more Maddison than a Gallagher type.
Always scouting him?
I bet we weren’t scouting him in the Togo second division…
Which was less than 24 months ago.
JDefoe
you finish your scout game watching him?Be interesting if you had any different thoughts now
For this to be more than a shirt-term sports washing/money pit/vanity project for the Saudis - they’ll need to get TV deals in Europe and North America (maybe parts of “rich” Asia.
Other areas (Phillipine/Africa) just don’t have the wealth to generate billion dollar TV deals. If they don’t, their league isn’t sustainable over the medium to long term - even the Saudis can lose billions for only so long.
They are trying - TBD whether folks tune in.

The coppa America /WC qualification for SA is a fairly good standard and they will play low block teams.
He will get a run of games and we'll see anyhow. I'm not that hopeful but I also think an 18 year old fresh from the Belgian league will also struggle to make an impact.
Not so fast. Lakaku is not a target, but Lukaku still might be.
One small plane to Saudi should do it.
For Lukaku?I don’t think we’re after Orban. I think he’s a smoke screen.
Hopefully he goes as well and we bring in another CB
Can't believe Hugo is still here
He’s got way more upside in the current system than Dier does.
I’m more surprised by White being on the for sale list. Wasn’t he meant to be another great youth prospect?
I think Ange is looking at Romero/VDV/Sanchez/New CB plus Davies as a utility player. That's fine IMO. Just as long as the new CB is not Lenglet.
Balogun is quality but yeah it’s not happeningTottenham are considering a move for Woolwich's 22-year-old USA forward Folarin Balogun following Harry Kane's departure
As if they would sell to us unless he is overrated & they can rip us off!
Barber joined Tottenham Hotspur’s board in 2005. As executive director reporting to chairman Daniel Levy, Barber was responsible for Tottenham’s commercial programme, ticketing and hospitality areas, marketing and brand management, and various aspects of the club’s match day operations. A lifelong Spurs fan, Barber also acted as the club’s main interface with fans’ groups.
Would be great if he ended up better than all their useless strikers. Not hard tbf
