TBF, maybe you should have added that as it does kind of imply it
Care to elaborate?

Make up your mind and stop hiding behind ambiguity. For the record, utterly irrelevant mentioning AVB in the Modric 'debate'.
Nothing I said implied that I knew Modric would play well this season, just that there was evidence he did last year.
However, the post I replied to said "Modric wouldnt have done shit if we held onto him"...then he has the nerve to ask me how I know something I never claimed to.
Then people pick out MY POST!! Fucking this place is a joke sometimes
Alright you are correct I was being immature. You don't know what kind of dialogue went on behind closed doors with Modric. Just assuming he was in the same mindset as last year would be a huge overstatement. He didn't hold out of preseason last year. He wasn't a know show to the United States last year. One might suspect that after coming back and playing hard despite being upset with management, going through a similar ordeal which ended with him still at Tottenham would not sit well. Of course this is speculation as well. Honestly we have no idea what he would have played like and how he felt. These assumptions are meaningless and do not contribute to a discussion of the team this year.
Ahhh you mean, say something you want me to. Nah its ok.
We are all conspiring against you. Join us Sammy. Embrace the love
I believe the decision to sell Modric did not lie with Villas-Boas.
Haha, well you do seem to spend a lot of time explaining to people on here they haven't read your posts correctly!
Neither do I, and have never said it did.
Do you believe he was sold over AVBs head, by Levy?
I dont, I think they both discussed him being sold, both came to an agreement on it, and he was sold. Both share responsibility IF thats the case.
Afraid sound isn't a luxury I'm afforded when watching Spurs on my PC (I get to watch the Euro games on TV at least!)...though, considering some of the pundits and commentary, I often consider myself fortunate.
With good reason, as has just been proven
What is more sickening than our form is the moaning. People claiming we should have played 4-4-2 against city and the Ethiad are crazy. Even Redknapp thought 4-4-2 left us too open. Also, the scapegoating of AVB and Dempsey is tiresome. The entire team was shit today except Adebayor, Sandro, and perhaps Caulker. Yet, no one mentions how terrible Bale and Lennon were.
Our fundamental problem is our inability to hold the ball. We have didn't have a single player who protects the ball at the moment. Dembele is the player we need plus another midfielder another CM in the window. Sammy, AVB didn't have a single thing to do with our transfer window. He wanted Moutinho and Willian and got Dempsey instead because he was the cheap option. Levy is the bank and DOF he makes all the final decisions, there is a reason him and Redknapp didn't get on too and it was Levy's cheapness in the transfer market.
We are simply lacking in talent to go compete in open play with City at the Etihad regardless of formation. Our healthy first team is excellent but having to play Huddlestone every game, Vertonghen at LB, no legitimate alternative to Lennon/Bale, and dealing with the shit platoon of Dempsey and Siggurdson doesn't give AVB a bunch of options. We need to get healthy and buy creative players, that is our problem.

Oh I see. Thanks anyway!
I don't think so. You are extremely vague, tend to contradict yourself when someone proves you wrong, and in general are a very poor writer. All posts are open to everyone's interpretation. You just seem to be in general very bad at explaining your opinions with words.
