I think very often it's a case of Chairman Levy needing to feel he got the sharp end of the deal. Or he won the negotiation and beat his opponent down.

Anyone still believe that Calafiori will join Spurs to be an understudy LCB & makeshift LB

No.
I believe he'd join if he's told that the position is his if he proves he's better. Again, top quality competition for a challenging squad.
I expect that if City, or any other top side, were in for him, he'd be told exactly the same thing.
Player probably wants to go and they’re drumming up interest to get someone to pay up the release clause which apparently quite a lot has to be paid upfront and I suspect nobody fancies doing that.
Yep it's just Snobbery....
Mate, people answered this video with the context as to why Hibs didn't work and also that AC is a very different role to HC
But if Snobbery wants excuses, it will find them.
Nail meet head.
Intresting take better let Chelsea and Woolwich know about this whole managerial ability thing...not correlating to coaches. I think you're totally wrong. All the problems this current Spurs team has in my honest opinion are managerial in nature. It's shh I want someone in to genuinely challenge Ange's thinking. It's more that a,set piece coach. I'm not going to lie, I'm increasingly disappointed by the way I see this going. Love Ange but I'm very pessimistic .
FFS what next Nicola Sturgeon as physio
What?
Who are Woolwich and Chelseas first team coaches and what are their managerial experiences?
Fucking hell, can tell it's not even pre season yet when people are genuinely pissing and moaning over staff appointments
The Euros is on, go and enjoy it.
He is still young too - he’s a unit which makes you forget time is on his side. Go and play a full season young man
100%. It’s why he gets deals done with desperate clubs like Everton etc

Whilst missing the fact the guy has never been an assistant coach either!
He may well be fine but let’s not go overboard.

2 big problems:
Ange is Australian and that will always work against him for people that have decided it's the main reason we lose any game.
The Euros have actually been shit aside from a couple games and England are even shitter.
Bonus problem:
Lange doesn't feed the beast for leaking transfer business so there is fuck all to talk about.
This is where the problem really lies.
Spurs fans have an inferiority complex, which has been fostered by Levy almost never splashing for real depth or allowing a project to last long enough to develop depth from within.
No chance City fans would be even half worried about how to persuade Calafiori to come, even though they have Gvardiol and Ake. Gvardiol came for 90m when they already had Ake...
Liverpool also linked with Calafiori and they have Van Dik. You think any of their fans have contemplated for a minute if he will come to be Van Dijk's back up?
Course they haven't. Spurs fans have a fear of success more than a fear of failure.
No way we we will bring in Eze for a squad place, we ain't smashing our transfer record just to sit him on the bench, you are absolutely having a right bubble

People doing way too much, this fanbase is genuinely hilarious.
I don't think it's that at all mate, it's just narrow mindedness, with the utter belief that they 'know the game.'
I won't argue with the conditioning, though you need to caveat that with where we were and what we could offer, when ENIC took over.
The irony is that it's the ones whining about a 'small club mentality' that display that mentality the most.
