Of course.

If only we'd pursued him further when we were linked. Then again, he'd have been riddled with "who?" and "bargain basement" jibes whilst having his development ruined by both Mourinho, Nuno and Conte.
There are times when ENIC have mucked up, but I don’t lay the likes of Kvara at their door. Everybody in the PL mucked up on him. Napoli were right when they said it was like winning the lottery.

I remember looking at videos of him, and it like watching some random footage from the 1970s.

And in comparison, consider Mudryk…..
 
I'm sorry, but this post needs pulling up for the patronising nonsense that it is.

We are not the other 80+ teams, are we. We aren't Wycombe or Wigan.
We are Tottenham Hotspur for fuck sake. One of the traditional power houses of the post war English Game. So let's not start distorting the facts with these twisted, insulting comparisons.

One of the Wealthiest clubs on the planet
One of the best supported clubs in the country
First club to achieve the double since ww2.
First English club to lift a major European trophy.
A trophy in every single decade. . before ENIC.
Record FA Cup winners . .before ENIC

NOT just one of the 80+ other teams

However you try and dress it up 1 trophy in 23 years is an utter fucking disgrace and a stain on our proud club..

All we have seen is a failure to back every manager they appointed, a failure to invest at the opportune time, and a failure to push the team forward when the chance was there for the taking.

For a supposed Spurs fan, you seem to endlessly insult the history of our club.
You revel in belittling our past achievements.....As some kind of warped logic to justify our current failings.

You're a sham, mate. Learn to show some respect to the history of our great Club

Anyone ever tell you that you sound a lot like John Thomas?

I find it hard to honestly judge Mudryk based on Chelsea's season. He got thrust into the league off the back of a ridiculously large fee and then spent most of the season managed by Frank Lampard in a team that had nothing to play for and really couldn't care.

I would not be surprised to see both him and Enzo Fernandes start to look more like actual footballers next season. They will both always come under scrutiny and be under the microscope due to their transfer fees but I think both will end up being productive for them.

Well said mate, but you have to remember that, some people will always try to defend the company they work for.
 
Premier league kicks off now in less than a month.
Levy needs to tell Bayern to meet his valuation by Friday otherwise there's ZERO CHANCE kane leaves , try your luck again in January.
Can't have this hanging about well into august.

Also the lack of new centre backs which had to be a first step requirement for this crucial pre season period under a new coach is unsurprisingly amateur

A new contract has already been offered, he should be given until the end of the week to sign it.
Harry Kane can do what he wants.

Levy has no control over this.

If Levy wants to sell; Kane does not have to go.

What does look more and more possible is that unless Kane agrees to be sold, for the fee that Levy wants; Spurs will not complete the deals that need to be done for the central defenders this team is desperate for.

The rumour was that VDV had agreed personal terms.

What else could be holding the deal up?
 
Areed....


Oh..

SSN: Thursday 2nd Sep 2010:

"Tottenham have confirmed that an agreement is in place to bring Holland international Rafael van der Vaart from Real Madrid to White Hart Lane. Spurs only emerged as contenders to sign the midfielder a few hours before Tuesday's transfer deadline and it was initially unclear whether they had been able to conclude a deal in time. It was understood that Tottenham had missed the cut-off point to finalise the paperwork and requested special dispensation from the Premier League to sign Van der Vaart"

Sorry, I don’t see the correlation between an experienced, confident English speaking attacker from Real vs a young, non Eng speaker CB from a much smaller club.

Such a shambles. Peasantry of the highest order, similar approach to Mike Ashley albeit slightly less of a cunt but still an absolutely power crazed, megalomaniacal tyrant
 
You always use inflammatory words like “crowing” to discredit people you don’t agree with or don’t like the point they are making.

Ad hominem is your playbook.


The only point I was making 2 weeks ago was that when everyone was getting sucked into the hype of singing Tapsoba, was that it reminded me of other expensive CB targets in the past that never happened. Especially after Maddison came in as the show piece signing of the summer.

I hope I’m wrong about that.

Now it has gone very quiet on VDV when several beat reporters wrote about the club wanting to get Ange a CB in time for the tour.

I don’t know why those observations are so uncomfortable for you that you have to go ad hominem to attack them…

But do whatever makes you happy
You're closer to the truth than the Levy apologist you're wasting your time with.

Tight wad needs the transfer bunce from the sale of Kane to complete any further deals by the looks of it.

Wages must be removed and selling to buy is still the only game in town.

Maddison's signing will have persuaded a percentage of season ticket stragglers to sign up again.

Levy must have been happy with the numbers and has hidden his wallet.

We all fucking know it.

Those of us who have studied ENIC and Warden Levy, for the duration of our 22 year sentence, without parole, are well aware of his methods and can read the clues.
