Poch wasn't allowed to drop any of the front 3 which was a large part of why he underachieved.
Less than Conte if you are correctAnd i will say this again for those at the back….
The club/Levy doesnt want to be fighting every season for top 4, we want to cement our position in the top 4. Do City, Liverpool and Chelsea fight every season for top 4? No, ok Chelsea have a bit for a couple of seasons, but those teams are nailed on to be in the top 4, with two of them competing for the title. 4th place and maybe 3rd are up for grabs for a team to make it their own. Spurs to fight for the top 4 or cement that position, what do you think Levy wants? Or the club needs?
i have no doubt conte wants more then to settle for top four next season
he is a winner
yea wouldnt mind him going there, hed probably be injured most of the time in the prem. hes also 30 now so his legs wont be as fresh as they once were...will suck a nice chunk out of them for wages and if any luck will be a bit of a problem in the dressing room.
Yes but one of the important components is consistent CL qualification at the minimum
of course not disputing that at all
The face you make when Woolwich tries to buy you
No I recall this too. There favorite was he's great dressing room voice and when you said but he's been shit for years they said he'd only play cups. I genuinely thought they'd gone totally mental and said so. They got very touchy about it.
I don't care about net position but we should be spending 200m on transfers (including Bissouma) given the position we are in financially and where the club allegedly wants to be."A lot of people" or is this just a cross you bear withShadydan ?
What "signs" are these then?
There's been no credible news or club statement to such an effect
All that's happened here is 'you know who' stirred the pot and a few voices here responded.... I doubt those same voices were jizzing at the thought of big spending to begin with.
Indeed..... It's only melts and trolls that aren't doing so.
Still, for ease of reference; the question still stands:
What minimum net spend amount would be acceptable?
...Because it's obvious the knives will be out for some unless we hit extreme levels of 300m or more.
This is the amount needed to address squad deficiencies and provide quality depth to cement top 4 and allow us to legitimately challenge for silverware.
So net could be 100-150m depending on how well we do on sales.
If your bin diving surely Cornet is even better value?
Whilst i don’t agree with this I believe Newcastle will be a top 6 side
He’s bought pretty solidly has Eddie
This is the type of player red bull purchase then ask 60m 2 years later

They had a great half season but you can't really conclude a lot from that.
His Bournemouth side was a mess defensively. Whether he'll revert to his old self is still TBD.
Let’s say being optimistic we go all out and get
Forster
Spence
Perisic
Bastoni/Torres
Bissouma
Raphinha
Richarlison
With rumoured outgoings of
Winks
Bergwijn
Reggie
Lo Celso
Ndombele
Rodon
Emerson
CCV
Lucas
Gil
That leaves the squad looking like this
GK - Lloris, Forster, Austin
CB - Torres/Bastoni, Romero, Dier, Davies, Sanchez, Tanganga
WB - Spence, Doc, Perisic, Sess
CM - Bissouma, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Skipp
FW - Kane, Son, Kulu, Raphinha, Richarlison
There’s a lot of quality there, but that’s only 22 players, with 3 of them being keepers. That’s extremely light going into a potentially 55+ game season. I know it’s been reported that Conte is happy with only having the 4 centre mids, which is partly why we ain’t going after Eriksen, but one injury to any of the 4, which will inevitably happen, and your suddenly rotating 3 players for 2 positions while playing 3 games a week sometime.
For me, signing Eriksen solves a lot of potential headaches with his versatility.

"Neymar is resolutely against joining the Premier League side."
Of course he is..... Way too much like hard work for some of these tarty players....... Hell, even Messi had no intention of a sweet deal with a former manager at City and went the semi-retirement route in Paris instead.
Wouldn't touch Neymar with a fucking barge-pole.
The fact that you failed to mention the Audi cup just shows your bias.
