What if he plays well and scores or assists against B'Muff?
That would be pathetic & leaves our net spend at about 60-70m pounds this season.
a) He won't.
b) He'll still end up out the door sooner rather than later. These first murmurs of 'Ange doesn't rate me as much as I thought waaa' are just the beginning.
Him and Ndombele are lost causes at Spurs. GLC is the much more salvageable one of the two and a decent footballer, but he'll never accept being a squaddie which is all he's good enough to be.
What would you realistically like to see as a net spend? Lets say forward and another CB for a combined 70m?
I'd much rather get PEH out the door than Lo Celso
A big part of that is I can be certain that through performance and fitness, Lo Celso will take only the minutes away from Sarr that he absolutely deserves and is helping the team with, probably a somewhat limited amount. Even with Ange I have no such confidence about PEH.

Given our biggest rivals are spending approx 230m net this season and we're the ones who need to play catch-up and rebuild, something similar would be nice. Our revenue is extremely comparable and there is no reason for us to accept less.
Pffftt. Don’t hate him, don’t love him.
He’s not totally one dimensional, obviously he can score goals, he’s technically ok, strong athletic so will be ok in the PL physically, he does some work off the ball, he’s not totally devoid of hold up play,
Where? I hope you aren’t including yourself in that.
Didn’t realise it was childish to disagree with your opinion. Sorry Adolf, your word is law, clearly.
Oh do get over yourself you obnoxious octopus. You’re allowed your opinion, and I’m allowed mine. Simple as that.
if you reply it had better be an apology

Much fairer than the nonsense spat out by that argumentative greasy haired manchild. Of course it should be collaborative, and we should utilise proper scouting and data…but the FINAL say must be the managers. Simple as.
I'd agree that's low.... No idea what it 'should' be though.

There shouldn't be a spending target as such. Only that the necessary recruitment is done to the extent possible.
Though I suppose for a club like ours somewhere north of £150m should feasible for 3/4 years with one or two lean years in between.
I like the idea of someone who's versatile. I haven't watched David at all, but I like his numbers, regardless of penalties. Especially as a teenager in Belgium.
If we're heading in a data driven period era for the club, I can see why David would be linked. I saw yesterday that everything is practically identical between him and Orban except Orban is a better finisher in a weaker league but David is alot more creative.
Can we please forget about top anything? As much as all of us would love for Spurs to challenge at the top end of the table, let's not forget that this is a rebuilding year utilizing a brand new playing style and philosophy. The most important thing is to see progress on the pitch. In the course of that, it may turn out that we need reinforcements in some areas we didn't think we did and be OK in other areas we thought we needed to strengthen. The purpose of a rebuild with a brand new playing style is to highlight these things so we can move forward with the right moves. But we need to be patient!
Maybe from some TFC posters, but I sure hope not from the people involved in our transfer dealings!
Don't shoot the messenger.
