Jack Grealish admits 'disappointment' over failed Tottenham transfer

Jack Grealish has opened up on his disappointment over his failed transfer to Tottenham Hotspur, and says he would have made the England squad if he had moved to north London.

Dude, the time period you were talking about was before the transfer window in the story you posted. Something about 8 million blah blah blah. Do you know if there was even an offer back then?? No, you absolutely don't.

That little scenerio really pisses on the "brilliant business man levy" rep,doesn't it?

 

[Get in!]

Get Potter in. I mean, I wasn't thrilled with the idea of him a few weeks ago, but he is head and shoulders above everyone else that is remaining. And will get us organized and playing proper football. I really miss that.

Paratici pushing for Nuno willing to rip up his deal to come to club if dont get his way! Others at club prefare potter whos willing to come its now turning into power battle now levy must decide who to back!

If Paratici gets his way and we get shit Jose style football next season the club can do one. Going down the lane watching AVB ball and Jose ball is draining, it provides no joy. I don’t understand how any Spurs fan could want Nuno over Potter. We ain’t winning Jack shit next season, the choice is between decent football or boring Jose football nothing more.

Even in the 90’s there where times we played some good football and that made up for being shit. I can live with us not being great but it’s bollocks to live with us being boring cunts. Our whole history is built on attacking entertaining football.

It has to be Potter, I want to actual enjoy the football we play.

Surely the DOF knows this especially as baldy stayed in his programme notes that next manager must match spurs dna and play a certain way? This dick is going in opposite direction. Has he even read his job description. I still think we just tell him do one before his influence along with mendes ruins our club.

Sorry, so what you are saying is the finance the CL brings in is more important than silver wear. If you were to receive a chunk of that money I could understand, but presumably you don't. Hang on a minute, do you therefore believe that the money from the CL is spent to improve the squad, and in turn will bring us success. If that is the case, why have our years in the CL meant our investment in players has been a net zero. I genuinely don't understand your logic, that finishing 4th is better than a trophy, please explain?

I did not say any trophy. I said I rather prefer Spurs to qualify for the CL than winning a domestic cup. Who really cares about the League cup or the FA nowadays. Already 2 decades ago Man U & Woolwich stopped caring about the League cup.
Why are players more attracted to clubs in the CL and why does Harry Kane go on about CL football if winning a domestic cup is more important to them than playing in the CL? CL footy is what draws the crowds and brings glory and the spotlight to the players.
Levy & Lewis will always remain tight but without the extra income from the CL they would most probably have spent even less money on players.

What we were being tempted with in the run up ST deadline day

What we're being offered now

Cheers Dan. Nice one mate

I think the club is just a mess behind the scenes. On Paratici did we even do checks on him, if we have a vision and he wants the opposite surely that should have come up before we offered him the role. Either the media has the wrong story or Levy didn’t do his due diligence.

I get all that but that’s not what I’m saying

Levy should have had a decent manager lined up before he sacked Jose as the writing was on the wall for several weeks

Frankly it’s getting embarrassing now

I don’t agree with Masons appointment either
He was clueless but we’ve argued all that before

He should have just got a safe pair of hands in for the rest of the season instead of appointing a complete novi

The best thing I can say about NES is I'd rather have him than no manager at all. This is getting ludicrous. I know we've fallen from grace slightly, but it not like we've been relegated. This should still be an attractive job, this shouldn't be that hard.

I understand your pov but once again we'd be settling for boring football and a Levy yes man.
Can you really see him getting rid of Sanchez, Winks, Sissoko et al? I bet keeping them is part of the job description. It's a minimum of 2 more years of the same crap. And Harry isn't going to stay for him. And who can he tempt to join? And we'd just be a convenient dumping ground for Mendes' dross.
For my own personal sanity, if he comes, I'm going to take a season out from games and forum.
It's the only thing left.

Don't leave the forum mate. You're a great contributor.
Stick around. Who knows, We may be be about to witness something momentous

 

[Atomic knob]

A sense of urgency at the club now. Someone will be announced very soon.

 

[Spaniel]

I dont think Traore is even any good really.

Occasional flurry of performances aside, he produces nothing and seems like a headless chicken to me.

Incedible athletically, but thats not necessarily the making of a proper footballer...

Never seen him play under a really good coach. Untapped talent there I reckon.

He's been playing long enough to have improved by now anyway,and just hasn't.

I can see an argument for a good coach using him to best effect, but that's not the same as him being a better player.

Athletically, he's a freak. And he uses it brilliantly. I just find ultimately he doesn't actually produce anything

 

[Spaniel]

if Gerrard comes to Spurs it will be as a stepping stone - either a step up or a step down. We all know that Gerrard's got his heart is set on managing Liverpool one day, so if he does well at Spurs he'll sooner or later be offered the Liverpool job, telling the world the open secret that this is his dream job.
And if he is doesn't do a good job, well, then Liverpool gets confirmed that he's not the man for their job and avoids going through the same mistakes as Spurs did. So this is a win-win situation for Liverpool.

And a lose-lose situation for us.

only wolves player i would take is neto

 

[Maureen]

Yeah but palhinha is also totally apt to play as CB in a three CB system. He’s tall as a motherfucker. A very intelligent player. He’s complete different player from them two. He’s a pure number 6. Would add a lot of physically to the team.

He looked ok when he came on v France but yeah this whole thing stinks. It will be all players from Portugal or Italy.
