How are clubs not lining up for a player like this???? madness
What on earth are you blethering about now? Another comment that just insults rather than engage. Providing no logic or argument. It's expected from you are your cronies, no drama.Papafeels
"It's you who seem to struggle with meta textual stuff."
Yeh...... Funny how someone else had to pointed that out to you too innit.

This is all you guys do. You and you're little fwends are universally disliked around here by the sounds of it, and this is why.
Ah found the quote. Yep, on that case, I misread a word because I was doing work. I have since apologized and deleted my comment because I was wrong. I'm absolutely not too proud to admit of I've fucked up or gotten something wrong. It's called being an adult. You, well, the less said the better.

Yeah and look what happened to Abbott. Has he been sent on loan again? All lip service. None of our managers are willing to give OUR HG. Players a chance.
Not going to bash anybody at the club here, but I find the current state of it all quite sad.
Who's the player that's going to make me want to watch Tottenham fight for a top-half finish this year? There are no magicians like Gascoigne, Modric or Dembele. There are no prodigys like Bale, prime Son or Kane. There is no team Frank can send out on the pitch and I will think "damn, Player A isn't starting today". It's just meh. And that includes Frank for me. We're a team of more or less generic players, with a generic head coach. No X-factor at all, except for maybe an injury-prone Maddison. If we can fight for something real, fine. But we can't so we won't. I haven't felt this lack of excitement prior to a new season for as long as I can remember. And I don't know if there are any players out there that we can (realistically) sign that will change how I feel. Or maybe it's just me wishing I was a kid again....

Lucas Da Cunha wondergoal for Como vs Betis.
Mentioned him a couple weeks back.
Could do worse for a new AM...but don't see that uber cunt Fabregas wanting to do a deal with us.
He's fucking 19 years old FFS. A league one lone shows he's nowhere close.
Liverpool getting 120 mill for Darwin and Luis Diaz! Wtf is going on.
Football is truly fucked. I really despise the kind of money chucked around for kicking a ball about!

Honestly, fact of the matter is that our youth recruitment is diabolical. How many have slipped though the net for us? Madueke? The rest aren't close to being our level. Look at Chelsea, Woolwich and City and how many players are top players that came through their systems.
Our young players just aren't good enough for the .ost part. It's a sad reality but true.
13 PL goals betw dom and Richi last season I think it was. Add in Tel.
May be but we will never know.
Funny the commentator said something similar on Sunday that without son it's the first time in a long time that spurs have no "star" players
Its on frank to turn the likes of tel, odobert, gray, bergvall, kulu etc to the next level.
What an insult that'd be.
I contested something you said; the logic of said contradiction spoke entirely for itself. I make no appolgies that it's not snowballed into a scenario that dignifies your lazy projection-ism.
You're blissfully unaware that you're just cozying into a parallel 'corner' of the forum..... But; enjoy.
If you were all about being an adult like you claim then you wouldn't feel the need to have been so disingenuous with me throughout this exchange. You've acted no more grown up here... Playground tactics.
Well past 2 years we have spent a lot of money mainly on garbage
We paid more for Solanke and Richy ffs. Hardly criminal.
The king of deflection. Constantly shifting goal posts.
Why do you defend Levy so much? Just stop ducking the question.
The mental gymnastics are exhausting.
Hasn’t Frank said we have options for the left in that magnification trio of tel Wilson and bj
I feel like this is a pretty universal thing with all of us and I've been the same especially with all the Son leaving and Maddison dying on the same day stuff.
This is going to be a season where we start to find those types of players in this squad, most of those stars were made at White Hart Lane, most of them slagged off for being too lightweight,coming from shit clubs, being too short, not scoring enough and then slowly they begin to become undroppable.
Kudus will be fun, like Lennon fun. Palhinha and Romero are going to bring those crunching tackles that make people stand up in the stadium. Porro probably has the best right foot of any defender in the league, Bergval has that aura of a player that's just going to be a superstar, Solanke I feel will prove a lot of people wrong this year and then you've got the French winger wild cards that nobody really knows what they'll turn out to be but I'm embracing that they could be good but again who the fuck knows.
We've got a manager that's made every attacker he's had in the premier league better, there's gonna be a lot of low blocks but hopefully that leads to hamstrings not pinging on different players every other week, also doesn't mean we won't play attacking football, think from preseason alone we can see there's a high press when the opposition are in their half.
Kulu and Maddison will come back if we can find all their missing body parts and I think we'll have a couple of signings in the next couple of weeks that just generally lift the mood a bit.
*Not a sign I'm backing how this window has gone. Just a mildly positive this squad is nowhere near as shit as it's made out to be if 70% of it can stay fit imo*
