That’ll annoy all the moaners on here who we’re sure him and Dier would be starting for us with Brendan on the bench
FFS missing out on another target, hopefully we can hijack it.
Reckon we will get gift orban this week. We need a striker in time for united game Saturday.
Sadly the issue was we spent very badly for 3 years on the trot from 2016 - 2019, best buys were probably Moura and Sanchez as measured in terms of playing over more than one season.
Had we spent as well in those 3 years as we actually have done in this summer, last year and year before, we would have another say 9 decent players in the squad, so wouldn't be needing as many reinforcements as we do - and not be faced with paying off some of those we bought. Those years have really crippled us - so very happy to see reminders that recent transfer business has been far better
I would be surprised if we had one in by Saturday, with the outs, this is the last few days of the window signing.
Even Ali Gold in his latest article has reiterated the point ..
"Tanguy Ndombele appears to have missed another chance to find a place at the north London club. football.london understands that despite a bright start Postecoglou grew unimpressed with the Frenchman's attitude and application as pre-season wore on, including his time-keeping."
He goes on to also say his fitness is quite behind others and ange wont play players that cant play his high tempo as it would be a detriment to both the team and player
Paratici's Spurs involvement, Ndombele issue, Dier farce and Scott Munn arrival
Here are our Tottenham talking points after their 2-2 draw at Brentford to open their Premier League campaign under Ange Postecoglou

For those who were nervous (or even hyper ventilating) at the thought we would sign Lenglet ........ you may now start to relax !
In what sense don't they count in the PL?
I thought Joe Lewis' speciality was gaming the system & exploiting loopholes.
Shame he cares more about yachts & screwing currencies than football or Spurs.
Has to go down as the worst mistake the club ever made.
I would honestly buy him out of his contract and just release him, I don't want him anywhere near the rest of the squad with his attitude.
Agree to most but its 2016 to 2020. The summer 2020 window was Hart, Rodon, Doherty, Requilon and Hojbjerg. The latter you could claim has done a job of sorts but the other 4 more money and time wasted.
Meh, the only source reporting us being interested was a shitty Spanish sports-tabloid...
Just lazy column inches.
Must be
We won’t have a new striker in for the Utd game. Just come to terms with that just now and it’ll make your week easier mate.
Gallagher looked out-of his depth against Liverpool. We need better than that !!
All of whom were Mourinho choices, apart from Rodon - the ubiquitous "club signing / punt".
And having a DoF wouldn't have made the blindest bit of difference because the club would have been determined to support the "Special One" as he attempted to keep us in the CL in the aftermath of Poch being fired.
Whatever loopholes they are exploiting (any potential rule-breaking consequences TBC); they're still spending these insane amounts of (what is increasingly suspected to be Saudi) money..........
Lewis is a business man; ENIC are an investment company....... Not a sports-washing operation or a Saudi-league talent-exhchange conduit or whatever it is that blue filth have mutated into.
The complaint that he isn't pumping his kids inheritance into buying titles for Spurs fans is apples vs oranges.
