Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

To the people who make hating Levy their whole personality, I'm genuinely curious as to how pissed off you'd be if we won the league?

I don't mind people sharing claims from people who reckon they're ITK.

It's fun seeing how they like to squirm when proved wrong.
That is (imo) where the brunt of the hate for the way the club is run comes from.

It's a free shot, and the SC ITKs have done it for years. "We are signing {insert player here}. He's booked in for the medical".

When it turns out the guess wasn't accurate, they can just say "It was Levy. We had the player in the building a ready to sign but Levy wanted to block/renegotiate/etc". Not saying that it isn't impossible that they has occurred before, but it has become something of an over-used bullshit get-out for the "ITKs".
Sometimes it has been like Willian and we get screwed literally out of a player who is in for the medical, but the "ITK" fantasists have made a habit of deflecting away the concept of being wrong
 
But isn't that precisely what we're demanding WE do to 'show ambition'??

We've not got the pull of a Real or Liverpool, or Utd of old, so we have to offer OTHER incentives.
Paying over the odds is what we've been accused of NOT doing, therefore we never get the best of the rest!

I think?!
yea to a degreee, but if we want a player that them clubs want then we got no chance anyway, they can easily pay what our max would be. we are shopping in the market jjust below, we have to be wise in our recruitment and get it spot on. where's the next bale, berbatov or modric?
 
Democracy is cowardly?

In the execution of it, yes. It doesn't help that people in modern society vote for what they want, instead of the greater good. The manifestos aren't even remotely binding so gerrymandering is used to manipulate people into making choices that are basically a marionette implying a puppet has free will.

People don't even see it happening in football. Sky have made football transfer windows into a soap opera, and lots of you will fret and panic over contrived storylines, disinterested in the actual truth.

If a club was ran democratically, you'd get the majority voting for a player over a youtube edit, because the majority wouldn't be arsed reading a scout report
 
They sold Mctominay last Summer for Ugarte who's on much higher wages? They signed De Ligt last Summer who is on 200k a week with them now. Now they've signed Mbeumo and Cunha who will both be on over 200k a week.

Don't be gassing them up with this huge draw nonsense. The truth is they offer way higher wages than anyone else enquiring about the player! Real Madrid were in for Yoro last year as a young prospect. United came in and offered him 120k a week. For an 18 year old with no experience! Real Madrid walked away laughing - they were only looking at offering him a 30k a week contract and to loan him out. Spare me this nonsene that United are doing everything they can to lower their wage bill. Why not build around Amad (120k a week) and Garnacho (75k a week) instead of just buying more 200k+ a week players to effectively replace them ?
Im see cunha is 150k basic, similar to what the are offering for Mbeuno. While mount and sancho were given 250k +

Amad will be used. Garnacho is a wrongun, clash with manager ( i think he's poor but thats just an opinion).
 
I’ve been on the canvas before looking up at the lights and have done the same to others.
Solwanke how is that for you and don’t start threatening me again. It’s not Maureen you are dealing with goat 🐐

You'll pay Solanke the proper respect, or you'll pay the price, boyo.

Deal with it.

: ostrich:
 
Don't hold your breath for a reply.

Genuine cheat code to get him to STFU, it's like asking Deuterz what he likes about supporting Tottenham

It fits because it's like giving a crying baby a pacifier, when he starts making noise again just hit him with those questions :harrylol:
