When Conte and Paratici came on board, very early on I referred to them as the Italian Fleecers.

Last season then......
Romero, Bentancur, Kulu...... 3 starters that helped elevate us from 7th (the year before) to 4th.
Paratici:
Season 1: improved the starting XI
Season 2: improved the squad.
I was actually backing you up because you mentioned the squad had improved whereas the team was referred to as not having improved. I actually think both have improved but maybe the squad more so.
This illustrates what can happen in football. All 3 for whatever reason have made less of a contribution this season. The exact opposite of what I expected, I thought all 3 would go from strength to strength.
I think previously the other fella was in turn arguing team/not squad...... lol
Whatever way you slice it though; I think the team and squad quality has been improved during his tenure.
21/22 speaks for itself really and there's quite a few seeds that still have yet to blossom.
Lololol that's awesome.
I don’t think so.
Another Levy masterclass. When do we appoint Joe Kinnear and Dennis Wise?
No guarantee we get a new DOF , usually when one goes he throws his strategy in the bin for a few years , shambolic is not a strong enough word
Yeah because Spurs is defined by the Sugar wilderness years....We never had any success or good teams before ENIC did we?
fucking bellend
And how many of those teams did you want to lose?
You’re an idiot.
Everything about you screams ‘fucking moron’ from your awful grammar to your ridiculous username.
Fuck off.
I actually agree with you but would immediately counter with the fact that Paratici has had more leeway with spending than any DoF before him. I mean some of our previous guys were operating with 10/15m net spends or negative net spends. Our wage bill has risen significantly alongside said transfer spending, too.
We can definitely say he improved on the GLC/Ndomble/Sess window which was our first foray in to genuine big spending, but it's not a huge brag. I honestly don't think any of his business has been under the radar or particularly impressive. We've not exactly picked up a bunch of bargains under him, other than Bentancur.
Depends on whether you think he's still working or not lolShouldn’t this be in the Tottenham part of the forum ?
