I was underwhelmed at the prospect of Grealish. But if Poch wanted the player, id have been more than happy if we spent 50million to get him.
A Spurs squad with a new Poch signing is stronger than a Spurs squad with no signings.
He's magic, you know.
LPM crew?? Christ, you really are our very own DT and his AKB's.
Answer the question that has been put to you.
Did this interview with the BBC not have the permission of THFC? Are Poch's words against what the Club want? Are they out of line or a surprise? Y/N.
Yes or No? How hard can it be?
Like, tomorrow, against Bournemouth, I think I would start
Lloris
Wan-Bissaka Alderweireld Maguire Digne
Neves Moutinho
Richarlison Deulofeu Pereyra
Son
If loyalty is piling on saying our squad is nowhere near good enough after every loss, then keep it.
Or crying out for our best manager in decades to be given the financial backing in the transfer windows he needs and deserves. For this heroic team to be enhanced and improved with great players . Loyalty to Poch and the boys.
Rather than blindly excusing, at evey opportunity the cowardly cheepskatery of the last 2 windows. If thats loyalty , its to the wrong geezer mate.
It's to the club.
The fact you think loyalty should be given to employees within it is telling.
I support the club top, to bottom.
That's loyalty.
Not throwing my toys anytime there is a hardship to overcome.
The club is inherently four different things.
The supporters
The players
The coaches
The ownership
(you could potentially add the non-football club staff and perhaps a Director of Football-type front office layer in a non-Spurs context)
For me, the club belongs to, and ought to be considered personified by, those four groups in that exact order.
If a foreign player had played 115 games and scored 25 goals and got 18 assists and they were only 18 years old, I would be absolutely AMAZED if they weren't highly rated.
He puts up a lot better numbers than the likes of Pulisic who was also very highly rated at such a young age and just forced a huge money move to Chelsea just this past window.

Do you think the owners of a club, any club, should be beyond criticism...
Does criticising the owners of ones football club, under any circumstances, mean that person is not a loyal supporter?
Everything in life is open to critique.
But seeing how far we've come under ENIC and saying we're regressing is not something I'll tolerate.
As a club we haven't regressed under ENIC. But as a squad we have regressed over the last 2 seasons. (Which makes our CL run even more heroic)
Why should we tolerate that?
That's a fine opinion to have, John. I don't take issue with that.
I disagree though.
