I’d rather keep some of them tbh. At what age are they going to be ready or given a chance. Look at players like mainoo and Wharton. Keep them in the squad and you never they may get a chance, shine and bobs your uncle. Amazes me how fans always say send our players out on loan. All the top teams play their youngsters. We should be brave and give our academy players a chance.

You could close your eyes and click on any of the 765 pages in this thread and it would be the same boring, turgid bollocks.
As much as some of it is true, do some of you not get bored of repeating the same old shit day in day out?

There has hardly been any signings by any clubs and that's because there is a Euro's tournament on, why should we be any different?
It's the same pathetic Dad jokes over and over and over again, it's as if you are happy that you can bitch about the club. It's the same ones who only post on here when we lose, but are nowhere to be seen when we win.

It's a well known fact that Woolwich are the whiniest, bitchy pathetic fan base, but fuck me some of you are giving them a run for their money.

Some people just can’t handle the truth mate.

The funniest thing is this poster regularly tries to claim that anyone that is vehemently anti Levy/ENIC are “Gooner Trolls” and, in his mind, not real Spurs fans, even though actual Woolwich fans continuously sing about how they want Levy to STAY. (understandably so too, as even they realise we are never going to be a serious outfit or win anything of significance with him at the helm)
:ange-facepalm2:

You genuinely couldn’t make it up.

Are people actually annoyed we haven't wasted 35m on a fucking 18 year old with zero Prem experience and less than a handful of decent performances that anyone has actually seen with their own eyes?

One game against a piss poor Chelsea.'

I watched him several times last season and in the play off final.

Disappeared.

Not a player we need, and remember that the last player we signed from Leeds is heading into oblivion.

Why is it a worry?

I thought he was the next big thing?

Yet it was Brentford who got him. Not City. Not Real Madrid. Not Liverpool. Not Bayern Munich or any other big club. Brentford.

That should tell you all you need to know. Everyone else was probably perplexed at how he was worth so much for achieving very little OR he wanted game time and thought Brentford would give him that.

The ethos of ENIC and Daniel Levy is to make as much financial gain as possible from the football club.

They don’t have an ethos on the football side of things. Absolutely none. They’re shysters who put on a facade that they have a philosophy and ethos as you suggest by occasionally throwing out buzz word statements like “we want a coach that can play free flowing attacking football” before appointing Nuno, or “we have our Tottenham back” after we won a couple of games, to make the more gullable of the fans believe they actually have some sort of vision. They don’t.

The old chestnut that they try and put out there that we are a club that signs exclusively young talented players is absolute dung too.
We sign predominantly players that are cheap. If a player is not a young and talented player we have no issue signing him as long as he isn’t very expensive. It’s a classic way of trying to justify continuously signing players that are not at a level that are really going to turn us into challengers. “Oh we don’t sign stars, we make them. It’s the Tottenham way.” Utter horseshit.

Under Jol, Harry, AVB, Poch, Mourinho, Conte, Nuno (what a collection of different managers that is btw, for an ownership that supposedly has an “ethos”) we signed numerous players mid/late 20’s/early 30s. Why? Because we could “do a deal.” Ethos went out the window.

Levy and ENIC have no footballing ethos or philosophy. They plod along on the football side of things chopping and changing from different methods and regimes and whenever things go tits up, Levy comes out with a buzz word statement, “we need to get back to the Tottenham way.” and bobs your uncle he gets a cohort of fans back onside again.
Rinse and repeat.

And most fans are more than happy to touch their toes and take it.

So, on it shall go.
