So if you include our starting XI and he gets the best out of 4 subs my calculations say a max increase of 28%. I'll take it

I said at the end of last season that we needed to improve the squad or Pochettino needed to sort his game management by a touch.
Well we now know which of the two options it is.
I will say this. I only thought Eriksen, Son and Kane on occasion and most definitely Vertonghen and Davinson literally all season long were at their best, so as a squad there is room for much better individual performances.
That's us fcuked!

"How about if he's still here in September I have to have an avatar of 1970's fat Elvis, and if he isn't, you have to have an avatar which states "NW1Spur is a genius"? And the avatars have to be kept 1 year. Deal?"Soooo close to September. Technically Lamela could still drop dead of a heroin overdose before 1 Sept and you'd win the bet, but man am I feeling confident.

Jamie Vardy signs a deal with Leicester to take him up to the age of 35. Wow!
Stadium delay was more to do with the winter weather than any board shortcomings, in my opinion.
Failed Stadium sponsorship? Our first game there isn't for another 5 or so weeks, lots of time to go yet before we mention "failure".
The zero signings, whilst frustrating for most fans, can't be seen as a failure at all until we see where we are May 2019, surely?
We've got some players with tired legs in the first team who are already leggy and the season hasn't even kicked off yet. In any normal season trippier Kane dier Toby Jan etc wouldn't be starting a match for another 2 weeks at least. I'm in shock at how bad the close season has been handled tbh
what..is it time for your daily angry wank over the picture of the boat?
Names 3 players not better than Winks. And I like Seri.
When we lost to City in the the U.S. last summer it was the happiest of yours.Thank fucksammyspurs is in the bin.
Probably the happiest day of his life
Where did I insult you?
Did I tell you to go fuck yourself?
No
Did I call you a cretin?
No
But never mind the Forum nonce Audere give you an agree
Well done
Too soonDodged a bullet in not signing McGinn either.
Behave
I'd agree the process can always be refined in some way. Does concern me when we get tunnel-vision over lower level punts (GKN, N'Jie). An extra pair of hands in these kind of situations could well help.
Could we be scouting harder/deeper is my greater concern tho'...? Similarly, is our desired player profile too narrow when looking to fill specific positions? ...Particularly when it comes to the non-physical/technical or less quantifiable aspect of things?
Winks is 22 and has played less than 40 premier league games. He has also suffered a lot from injuries. He's not a proven player to rely on.
Neves and Ndombele are certainly better than Winks right now.
Weather is always factored into such projects and we didn’t have a bad winter. As for the stadium sponsorship - well it wasn’t in place with the first deadline and do you honestly believe that given the time that has passed previously we can secure on in as little as 5 weeks.
Listen it’s doesnt make you any less of a supporter to acknowledge our poor form. The custodians of the club are accountable to us not the other around and they failed on nearly all fronts this summer
