Maxed out on foreign loans? Good god we maybe had to take a total loss due to Levy and Paratici being unable to actually sell anyone. If so would seem pretty amateurish :/

Ex-Spurs Player Matt Doherty
- Thread starter hiatus

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Our Season is finished…
What a mess we got ourselves into.
The management and transfer team need to know that in football, 1+1 is not equal to 2. A team is not built on the accumulative quality but the bonding, chemistry and familiarity of tactics of the team!
By offloading Matt to make room for a new player, this is just messing up the camaraderie, teamwork, friendship, chemistry that had been built painstakingly over the years!
Not to say we can’t do that. Of course, players come and go. But… to do it in this manner, last minutes decision (loan to mutual termination) just smack of disregard of what makes a team work and I am pretty sure the other players remaining in the team won’t be happy about it

fill me in. Why did we release him for free?
Has a good instinct for moving into space and scoring. I’m surprised at the way left but maybe it made sense financially.
Our abacus is broken & we couldn’t count to 9
Too many players out on loan.
The fans aren't much better, let's be honest.
Do we forget we boo our own players!?
To play devils advocate out of all the players that we have on international loan I believe he’s the one with the least amount of sell on potential.
Now you could make an argument that we shouldn’t have sent him on loan to begin with, but let’s not pretend that he was setting the world on fire. Even if he stayed one of our RWB would’ve been sold in the summer, and Doc again would be the hardest to move. I suspect clubs that would take him wouldn’t be ones he’s interested in joining.
My biggest issue is just how this went down. If we’re going to cut his contract then fine do it. It’s something we should’ve done to other players that we’ve just dragged along for years now. But how we went about this just made up look absolutely inept at running a football club.
For someone who is supposed to be financially astute, Levy really knows how to waste money.
100 million spent on sacking managers and buying punts that do not fit or cancelling contracts on players he cannot shift.
Total twat of an owner
However Porro on one side and Undogie (sp) on the other should be electric... providing Conte stays or the next manager plays a similar way.

Doherty was one if the worst players i have ever seen in a Spurs shirt. The club offload him saving £80k a week in wages and replace him with a top quality player and we are still not happy.
What the fuck has happened to our fanbase.

Yeah I mean the level of incompetence of this club just seems to know no bounds. We lurch from one thing to another under this administration. Farcical.
I mean he's moving to Madrid and probably on the same wages doubt he's too upset...
Contract was mutually terminated I don't see what the problem is
The faux outrage seems to be a way to take yet another dig at the club if anything.
Surely this is good for Doherty if anything? And wages off the bill rather than him warming the bench. Best case transfer was a ~£1m fee in the summer most likely, Sissoko style, given his age and contract.
