Whatever loopholes they are exploiting (any potential rule-breaking consequences TBC); they've still spending these insane amounts of (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 compaint that he isn't pumping his kids inheritance into buying titles for Spurs fans is apples vs oranges.
If you call speculating against your own national currency, crashing it, & then fucking off to the Caribbean as a tax exile being a "business man", then sure.

I don't.

I loathe Boehly, but he marched into the chav dressing room late last season & told them to show some pride & passion, at a time when Fat Frank has now told us the players had downed tools.

Can you imagine Lewis, or Levy for that matter, ever doing that?
 
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.

Yup hummed and ha'd over 2020.

Bale not on your list - was not fit until about Feb, but for 3 months his goal stats were pretty good (16 goals and 3 assists).

Hojbjerg, despite some complaints, has been a midfield 'ever present' pretty much since arrival, Doherty did fill a squad role and Reguilon started ok but never pushed on but held that LB position for a season whilst Hart filled a role.

Not a good window, but light years above the 2016-19 standard where 2018 when nobody arrived looks in retrospect to be the best of that period - no crap to deal with afterwards !
 
Quite pleased with our new signings this summer and have been diligent. That Hitchens was a shit scout. Looked a 2nd hand car salesman in that amazon doc. Bit of a yes man as well. Poor hire. Still think paratici is working for us behind scenes.

Fine..... Dodgy/greedy business man if that distinction means something to you; but the essence of my post remains exactly the same.


I don't.... I just think he's a patsy..... (And quite likely a massive dick!)

If Levy started doing such things he'd be accused of meddling..... Perhaps rightly so too.

Levy did however step in and try to kick Ndombele up the arse..... And got ridiculed.

Left Bale and Vinicius off as loans. I think its as bad a window as we've had tbh just in terms of utter mediocrity. Wasted more money the year before obviously. Doherty we paid out of his contract he was so poor, Rodon we cant give away, Hart was binned after a year and we're looking to sell Reggie and Hojbjerg. It was dreadful.
