Amazingly a leopard does not change it spots. We do S*** business and then struggle to get rid of the player after we purchased the wrong player.

Look how the only player still at the club that we signed in 2020 is Reguilon and we are desperate to get rid.

From the 2021 Summer window we still have Gil(only on loan) and Royale on our books.

Even the 2022 summer you can say every player but Udogie was a bust:
Perisic not suited to play Left Wing Back
Richarlison does he still play for us because even though he was on the tour he was apparently injured.
Bissouma we saw the best of him for 9 Games.
Forster back up keeper nothing special.

That seems to be the case mate, you have to feel for these managers who, come to this club with ambition and desire, only to find that the club are not on board with it and only dipping their toes in.
Nothing will change until the cunts are bought out, sooner rather than later.

100% said he wanted to join and 100% Ange was aware (I can't say 100% Levy was aware because I don't know but I presume he was).

Like I said, I said this at the time and was laughed at. You would think people would see in my 10 plus years on here being a regular poster I've never ever claimed to be itk(in fact I hate them and ridicule them more often then not) that I wouldn't just make shit up.

If I say I'm 100% sure ...I'm talking in a literal sense...literally 100% sure this happened. How does one get to be 100% sure of something?

anyway it's whatever. It looks like he's staying now so we move on.

Were you sorting out the electrics in Ange's office while Romero popped in to tell him?

The full extract goes on the contradict all that.

What positions/players are they looking at?​

Tottenham have also been looking at a new No 8, an energetic midfielder to play alongside James Maddison.

At the start of the window, they worked on a potential move for Jacob Ramsey, but they could never agree a fee with Aston Villa, who ended up selling other players to help them comply with PSR. Postecoglou has been a big admirer of Conor Gallagher and Spurs have always had an eye on his situation at Chelsea, but he is now going to Atletico Madrid instead.


It remains to be seen whether Spurs will look for another option in this area of the pitch in the final weeks of the window

So much for our big PSR advantage!

I just don't but this at all.

We have so many CMs it simply can't be a priority.

Ange loves Sarr. Bentancur could be back to his best. Bergvall and Devine look good there. Gray says his best position is 8.

O Keefe said that Lo Celso isn't fancied because he doesn't have the legs in this system so it these links to pressing midfielder don't surprise me, expect Bentancur to be off in that case probably next Summer as well.

Can understand it though.

All well and good having lots of 8s but if none of them can actually run, what's the point?

Maddison definitely isn't an 8. Lo Celso hasn't got the legs for the system and is probably leaving. Donley and Donley I don't think are particularly athletic enough. (though both have a place)

I think Ange wants a Gallagher, Ederson type who will press and hassle like mad men. We haven't really got one of those.

Agreed, just because we have lots of players who can play in that position does not mean they are good enough. Donley will hopefully develop into a really good player, notmsire about his brother though.😂
