Everything just seems so reactionary under Lange, even more so than usual.

We fucked about and fucked about with Doue and Neto, and got gazumped, then ended up having to sign a far inferior player in Odobert.

We wanted Gallagher for over a year prior, knew Chelsea were desperate to sell him and couldn’t sweet talk him into signing.

Umpteen players in January told Lange no. Even Tel told him to piss off before Ange had to phone him and make the big pitch.

All the other big teams are signing players left, right and centre, and it feels like we’re standing here with our pants down with no idea who to sign or what to do next.

Its like if we don’t have a clear run at a player, and there’s competition for him, we think “fuck that”

Winning the Europa League was our one golden opportunity to get back to being a top-4 side instead of sinking to becoming an Everton/West Ham side every season and we’’re making an absolute chunt of things so far.

Is it reactionary or is it people waiting for a better club to come along before committing to us? Maybe its both.

As everyone else mentions, we dont do anything with purpose when we are on top to sustain the impression that we are an ambitious club that will go places.
 
Have a day off and stop believing this crap especially since its come from the shit stirrer himself Matt Law

There also genuinely isn't that much deadwood to shift, unlike so many recent summers.

Leeds will be beating down our door for Manor Solomon. It's really just Gil and Veliz we'll need to drum up something for.

The expiry of Reguilon's contract means we've finally binned off the whole Hitchen contingent. Paratici, Lange, Ange and Levy have all done yeoman's work in cleaning that mess up.
 
So if it's one in and one out, then it's selling to buy surely?
In any case, whoever is the manager will get, kindergarten signings or, out of contract signings nothing changes CL or not.
Is anyone expecting any decent players in during the summer? Disappointment will be in the air if you do.

Selling to buy normally means you need to raise cash to purchase players.

With all our returning loanees we don't have 17 NHG in the EPL squad, we have 16.
But the UCL squad currently contains 23 NHG players listed on the OS senior team list. We are allowed a total squad of 21 plus CT player Austin.
Our current UCL total is 30 plus Austin.

Sure, but it would probably make more sense with Eze who would also be our best LW. On top of that add a left footed attacking player with some technical ability

Of course. And Eze is probably our target and the player we sign (if we spend the money).

I have no illusions on getting multiple big money signings. I doubt Xavi would want to come to Spurs anyways. He's been linked to far more stable clubs.
 
Grealish isn't a system player which is why he hasn't looked great at City.

His best years at Villa were when he got to be the engine which their entire offense ran from.

He's obviously benefited from going to City in that he has won a lot and got to work under Pep. But he's become a stylistically worse footballer as he's gone from being a dynamic threat to just a cog.

City Grealish and Villa Grealish are two completely different players.

Would have grealish in a heart beat can play either wing or CAM great player that like many has been over coached in that man city machine
