Well it's not all about trophies for example the club don't get a trophy for winning the NLD. It got a trophy last season but also had the worst PL season for I can't remember how many years, and the manager ended up getting the sack but at least he lasted longer than the other managers since the game changing new Stadium was complete.
Now since you didn't answer my question I'll ask it once more.
Who in the present team, a team that is about 6 years into the project of (as you say) "The new stadium will be a game changer which will enable us to compete financially with Europe's biggest clubs". is a better player compared to the players in the 2016/17 team prior to the old stadium closing?
Or are you going to say that ''competing financially with Europe's biggest teams'' doesn't mean the club was going to sign better players?
Edit - Oh and by the way Levy had been highest paid chairman before the Europa League final, so compared to some other Chairman, no he hadn't earned his beans.

The Japanese signing working like a dream , up to 58 Levy in now .
All of them, because they didn't fold like a wet paper towel in a cup final for once.
Not sure why you've hidden this, as if it's some kind of secret message.
The point, which you are gloriously missing, is that a 'successful' chairman earns bonuses for company performance. We are the best run football company in the league, and have financial security we have no right to have.
If you'd rather be back in the 90s then that's on you - but you can't criticise the club with any validity off the pitch.
That much has been proven by the so-called 'worse' team showing the Poch era one how you treat a cup final. Pointless being a good team on paper if you can't deliver when it is needed. It also goes to prove that it isn't "the best players" or "the board" that helds us back from winning a trophy, it was the mentality on the pitch.
And pretty much none of them were on form.
You heard it here first folks, according to CJJ the present team has better players in it than the prime Pochettino team.

Supporting the club has been fun for me for over 30 years. Significantly more than it was in the first 10, I can assure you.
The reason why no one takes the little "levy out" club seriously is because there's more weight in a grain of sand than there is in the amorphic reasons put forwards to take digs at the club.
I used to let it slide, but people new to the club actually think it's true that we've never won anything before, or that before ENIC the club were some mega successful enterprise, rather than living through financial misery and constantly forced to sell our best players to carry on existing
Success is winning things, according to you. Or not. Depending on your argument, isn't it?
So we lost 22 PL games in either of the 2016/17 seasons?
Do you not even for a moment consider that beating the worst Manchester United team in living memory, and being 17th in the Premier League, is a far easier task that trying to beat a very good Liverpool team and ending the season in 4th?
So are you saying that the club was more successful finishing in the top 4 than it was winning the EL?
I don't think I've said Levy Out during our messages together, What I have done is mention his quote about using football as a money spinner in 1997. And now there are protests to get him out, and I don't think that there's much if any distance between what Levy had said back then, and what the protests are about now.
So after all this back and forth I still perceive the same information, the same way, the only thing I have changed is that I no longer think Levy is presently the highest paid Chairman.
The league table doesn't lie after 38 games.So are you saying that the club was more successful finishing in the top 4 than it was winning the EL?
When Spurs won the U.E.F.A. Cup in 84 they knocked out a Feyenoord team containing Johan Cruyff and Bayern Munich along the way.
We beat Bodo Glimt and AZ this time.
Apart from Gazza which players were we constantly selling to survive?
No I'm saying it was easier to beat that Manchester United team than the 2019 Liverpool team, and it's easier to be 17th in the PL than 4th.So are you saying that the club was more successful finishing in the top 4 than it was winning the EL?
Not more successful but much more difficult

Lenin is on the train.
We've lost to worse European sides than Man Utd in previous years with better teams and with better coaches.
If it was so easy then why did it take us 40 years to repeat the trick?
A new format for the competition and a Champions League place for winning?
Also I think we ended that season in 8th rather than 17th.

How fucking patronising of our own supporters can you get you fucking troll
I was only referring to the team in the few years prior to the old stadium closing, being better than the team now. So the new stadium hasn't really done anything to improve the team since then, if anything the players are worse now than then.
I'm not going through the whole thing again with you though, my head hurts already from dealing with that other guy.
