When you been starving for weeks, a rotten piece of food looks mightily appealing.Some fans trying to talk themselves into McAtee being a good signing who at 22 has made 48 premier League appearances for a total of 2,200 mins so he has played equivalent of 24 full 90 minute games in PL. He might turn out to be a good player but he sure as shit ain't the player we need in our current position
Levy doesn't take public embarrassment well. At all.It absolutely has the humiliation factor for a multi billion football club to have its own fans setting up a gofundme page. Obviously Levy would try to laugh it off but it would show him up and have the media all over it. One of worlds richest clubs fans are so fed up that they start a gofundme page.
Would it make a difference? I dunno with someone who has such thick skin, but it would cause significant embarrassment and raise the difficult question of “why” we’re always scrambling around at the end of a transfer window with glaring holes in the the squad to fill.
On a side note, a mate of mine once put an advert in the local paper advertising a monkey in need of an organ grinder with another mates number as the contact.
It was hilarious when the poor bloke saw it. He never did find out who did it, but it was a lot of fun watching him squirm and “investigate” the culprit
This is why he hates the protests and the media coverage that goes with them.Levy doesn't take public embarrassment well. At all.
If a big brand was backing it, and some former players - big names - also joined in, the media would be all over it for a week and Levy would've nowhere to hide, he'd have to respond.
He said the new stadium was a game changer and allows us to compete with Europe's elite so yeah, I'm really excited.Anyone really looking forward to an opportunistic signing by Daniel this week
Just come home and 13 pages. Cannot read it all. Ridiculous.15 pages behind in 6 hours. I'm guessing we've signed no one, the world as we know it is ending and the chicken little's run the planet now.
Define 'idiots'....there are so many to choose from at any given game mostly fueled by (hic) alcoholNot really, for me. Im not embarrassed by what the board does. I am by what other fans do because thats who I get associated with.
The manager and the group of players he has deserve to be given the opportunity to show what they have got before a group of idiots go protest and let them know they don't think they are good enough before they've even seen them play a competitive match .
Caught up with my Dutch pal who supports PSV earlier. Apparently there's a fair bit of chatter going on between their fans that Joey Veerman will be off to the PL before the window closes. He reckons it'll be somewhere like Brentford, Brighton, Fulham...or Spurs.
Obviously he ain't ITK and neither am I, but thought I'd share.
Feels right up Levy's street the more I look at it, to be honest. He's 26yo, got experience in the CL and on the international stage, can play a variety of positions (6, 8 & 10)...but mainly you're looking at a 30 odd mil fee and wages round the 60k mark (he makes 30k pw at PSV).
Good player, I like him and I'd have him over Grealish and that McAtee lad. But does he move the needle? Not sure. Type of signing we should make for backups, not starters.

Well I hope it’s Brentford,Brighton or Fulham because I’ve seen him loads and he’s been poor every time. Constantly gives the ball away unless he is passing it 10 yards sideways or backwards."He reckons it'll be somewhere like Brentford, Brighton, Fulham or Spurs"
That one sentence, my friend, is worth a thousand words in summing up Daniel Levy’s Tottenham Hotspur and where we find ourselves right now.
Morgan Gibbs-White AND Veerman would've been solid business. Them two plus Gallagher would've been spectacular, transformative type business. Especially if we'd also shifted Biss and Rodders.Was a few rumours even Real are looking at him.
Would be an intriguing pick up for sure
Oliver wants more we want some
He ain't elite, sure, but the comparison is a bit harsh.Well I hope it’s Brentford,Brighton or Fulham because I’ve seen him loads and he’s been poor every time. Constantly gives the ball away unless he is passing it 10 yards sideways or backwards.
He’s like a poor man’s Winks
