How long before our latest ITK comes from reading tea leaves?
And in so many more !!
This nonsense about Frank wanting to assess the squad is just the latest in a very long line of excuses people use to justify our inactivity in the transfer market.
It happens every window. People desperately digging for reasons and explanations that ain't there. I don't know why they do it. It's utter delusion.
The simple, straightforward answer is the one constant that's been laughing in their face for 25 years
And he needs to pay his mortgage every month by getting clicks from gullible fans.
Ill ask you this - as i think anyone should ask themselves when pontificaing on this.
Did you rate Ange as a manager?
If not, then you shouldn't be judging the players based on what he got out of them.
You mean it doesn't- yikes
L
Who employed Ange as a manager?
If you trust the club transfer/payment policy then you should judge the appointment policy and the revolving door of managers.

So Mr Fwank. We have a shortlist of 3 for you.Player A) He'll be too expensive. The selling club won't bend over for me.
Player B) Wages too high. We wun tight ship here at Spurs
Player C) Selling club have PSR issues. Might just be able to get this done.
What do you think. We could always sign none if you prefer
Player C would be useful boss if you can get it done for me.A 'Thomas Frank Pick'
Brennan had done more in the PL when we signed him than Elliot has now.
Every chance Elliot is Fulham fodder at best tbh
This is the Summer Transfer Thread, it's here we're meant to discuss transfer matters and nothing else BUT fuck all is happening, apart from one or two tenuous links and people are a bit pissed off and/or concerned especially considering some of the moves others are making.
Don't want to read our comments, fuck off to another thread or create your own Summer Non-Transfer Thread, where you will be free to discuss everything whatever you want including sucking off Levy and co.
We finished 17th last season and whilst our squad isn't completely shit, it could certainly do with some quality additions.
It's as I said a few weeks back, we're waiting for the serious players to get their business done and see who's left.

The dumb thing is about this is if you aknowledge that you're here to discuss transfers and nothing else then we shouldn't be reading incessesant childish moaning about bald bad man and constant steams of tears every time another club makes a move lmao
Frank will know what players he thinks will be good additions to the squad and Frank will want to watch how the current players apply themselves to his training methods. There's also 40 days or so before our first meaningful game, I'm not saying that's when I want the signings to be made, I'm saying there's plenty of time between now and then to determine who the right targets are for the gaps Frank thinks we have.
Also as a side note Kulusevski is a much much better player than Elliot. Dragged us through months last season as pretty much our only creative outlet,

Will never understand the people that come on here everyday to moan about people who are moaning about the club's transfer business.
Hilarious.

He'll have seen them spend half of that running around like headless chickens doing an extreme beep test from the goal line to the half way line.
His team will want to see how players manage what types of stuff he wants them to do - see if they can take instruction or be capable of certain positioning. How much application they have in training. How they react to different scenarios.
Bear in mind some managers (e.g. Conte and Poch) just flat out refused to play some players, so other managers wouldn't have been exposed to their training performances.
The last thing we need is a Dibling, another young player who might develop into a top talent or become 2025s John Bostock.
We need a here and now player, Elliott would be far better value than Dibling as he can make an immediate impact and will likely cost less
