I imagine Frank is having similar feelings to MGW right now.
 
We do have alot of growth from within our squad, for sure.
But I wonder at what point, during which training session is frank suddenly going to realise that we are so under cooked for what expectations he took upon and accepted for this job?

In 2 years when some players have matured a little then yes there's quality to blossom from this team but before then? We're missing in the wind.
 
I think we’ve made the mistake of hanging on thinking there’s a chance MGW could still be done and it’s seriously hampered our incomings.
Are we seriously expected to believe that those responsible for transfer ins and outs have just sat there waiting for the MGW deal to go through? That they haven't planned for the extremely predictable scenario where we didn't actually get MGW. The one that became evident when he tipped up at training and went on their tour?

I mean what the actual - what do they do everyday, day in and day out?

Is this the edge you’re talking about?

The cunt can go and fuck himself. Don’t want him or that attitude anywhere near our club.

As for the whole “ah we all do shit when we’re young” defence. Most normal people do not behave like that
and they certainly don’t record themselves doing it before uploading it to social media.

Exactly. Harry Kane managed not to be a total cunt when he was that age!!!
 
What a miserable lot you are

I mean FFS what are your everyday lives like?

Every player Spurs have currently is shit, every player the journos link us with are shit or unattainable

Spurs fuck this up, fuck that up, Levy this, Lange that

Thank fuck you lot aren’t in charge of this Club

If you are so miserable then don’t support the Club
 
You really do get so upset of any criticism of Levy. All you do on here is whine and whimper about it all day and make silly, sarcastic comments along the way...It's all you offer.
What's it all about, mate?
Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

As for the sarcasm, when you see pages upon pages day after day with the same 3 arguments repeated ad nauseum, it pretty much writes itself. Mate.

Ange always said another manager would get the benefit of what the club has done on player recruitment.
2 years from now will be peak Van de Ven, Bergvall, Sarr, Udogie, Kudus, Tel, Odobert, Gray. Hopefully either Scarlett or Lankshear will have trained on and all the young guys will be pushing to start.
 
Our 25 most expensive transfers according to Transfermarkt:


On reflection, perhaps keeping our powder dry isn't the worst idea...

I don't think there is another top club that spends its money as badly as we do......maybe Man Utd
 
I have absolutely no doubt that the players we buy will be opportunistic buys and not related to any strategy whatsoever. We are just rifling through the "reduced to clear' bins at Aldi.

That's quite a fucking stupid statement mate.

VDV was an opportunistic buy, as was Davids.

Why shouldn't any club buy a good player who's availability and who was made known to any cub late in a transfer window.

If you actually read what Lange has said about his job remit back in January then you would understand the clubs transfer "strategy"

You may not like it but it's very clear for anyone to see what the clubs transfer policy is.
