Yes.
BUT other than United's scumbag owners this is the minimum expectation of any ambitious owner.
the owners that really want to win invest more than just profit because they know the club is also an equity that's apperciating in value.

He is the chairman so he is always going to be involved to a degree.
What we don’t want to keep happening is for Levy to turn down deals for Bruno Fernandes, Grealish, Kim etc because he thinks he can be clever and get a better deal somewhere else. We just need him to set the budgets then fuck off and let the football people make football decisions.
Yeah it’s lazy journalism.
Maybe Jota? I vaguely know he’s meant to be talented, but that’s all.
Wonder how many Richarlison would score in SPL?
Probably a lot.
Just dont see that happening. You can put as many layers between him and the football decisions as you like, control freaks dont give up control. Might be bits round the edges that are helped by Munn being there such as the players getting in Levys ear as we saw on the documentary but ultimately the bigger decisions, manager, bigger transfers etc will always go through him.
Even with Paratici who he bizarrely trusted, Levy still stuck his oar in for Spence, Richy, and Porro.
ATM we don't even have a DOF to act as the go between.
We will have done max 2 deals before deadline day, sky will be parked outside the training ground and we will get a bunch of deals that will end up being too difficult to do. All the excuses will be very plausible and completely acceptable.
With Munn and Postecoglou i'm not expecting a DoF. Ange likes to be hands on with transfers by all accounts. Probably be looking at more of a head of recruitment, wouldnt surprise me if they just promoted from within. Whatever it is they do they need to get a move on.
Well we did try to sign him before.
Have already shared my thoughts on handing the keys to the squad to a coach on a 2 year contract, not doing it again.
If they bring in or promote a Sports Director that head up recruiting the squad, that could work as long as they get on well with Ange and there is a plan that lasts longer than a 2+1 contract.
Yeah, how did that go?
As far as I remember it was another valiant fail where we did all we could to get him but unfortunately it didn't happen.
Pretty incredible how unlucky we are with transfers for top-shelf players.
Agree. Wonder if the guy from Brentford might be the best shout now. Scouts on data, seems like he has common sense. The last thing we need is a wheeler dealer old school Paratici type getting in everyones way.
You’d imagine 35+ if playing for Rangers or Celtic.
Ashes test , lolWhen will the first Aussie Rules match at the Kart track be announced?
Winner gets a small urn containing the ashes of Spurs fans dreams and ambitions .
That’s on Levy not Ange , Ange deserves a full season of our support
Once the season starts I won't say anything about him one way or the other because at that point he's Spurs and that's the team I support. We're stuck with him now.
Agreed we have to give the bloke a chance, that's if of course it actually does happen.
He just quote re-tweeted himself... with the exact same info.
