So , levy has gone over there and Tel has said no?
Is this official or just hearsay?

Wow this is embarassing
I don't even think he buys that anymore, certainly no one else does.
The ambition at Spurs is to sustain a permanent ability to bring in world-leading revenue from fans while not spending world-leading costs on players. Any concern about results on the pitch flow exclusively from their leverage over said revenues.
The tactics change, the strategy never does and never will.
The fact we are not seen as an attractive option for a player of Tel’s standing in the game is an absolute indictment of Levy’s Spurs, considering the promises that were made when we moved into our “game changer” new stadium.
How we have transformed into such a rudderless, soulless mess of a football club before our very eyes is just so so sad.

Makes him look weaker but saves him 60m on a risky signing...
I'm more saying that on their day and decently rested, not run into the ground and half broken, they have the ability to compete with anyone. Liverpools top team struggled with southampton.
A decent europa league team is who we are. Poch got us close to champions league glory but was growing too big for levy to handle. See parallels with us with valencia.....nearly!
I don't think so. Sounds like charity work! Because we so obviously have a ceiling under Levy. And that ceiling is below winning the league. And arguably below winning a cup also!
Who, with alternatives that have a higher ceiling, would go for it??
Obviously we don't know the detail, but I'd be surprised if we weren't offering him as much game time as any other big club can offer
Mbeumo would make sense we need a rw but i reckon it's dibling or nothing there
What about that lad that works part time in Zara?
Probably doesn't fancy it.

I'll break it down for you.
The illusion of ambition is making a big managerial signing like a Mourinho or a Conte. To make the fans think that the club is ambitious, and then failing long term to back either man.
Its signing a high profile sought after young lad (still on low wages) and saying "look we are ambitious"
Its doing the bare minimum to keep people from dragging you out from behind the curtain and recognising you are a fake, a charlatan. You aren't a wizard. You are a snake oil salesman.
Because the board thought a fancy stadium, nice dressing room, top of the range gym and training ground would attract elite players rather than decent wages and a desire to compete. They are now finding out the hard way.
Were building a hotel. Let's be happy.
Dybala image rights was the best one...or the Rivaldo letter.
So close again, it's a wonder why we struggle to get players other teams might want over the line. I wonder what we're doing differently coughcougwagestorevenueratiocoughcough.
They tried player not interested shit happens.
As a Tottenham fan, we are all use to disappointment and failure it's normal.
Anyway saying it's a coping mechanism can fuck off.
