Course you could, but if someone was posting that as a response to every single mention of Solomon you would find it a bit OTT I'm sure.
I wouldn't ask people to stop doing it though, if that was the worse thing going on, then that's light.
We spent £42m on a centre back when we had Alderweireld and Vertonghen at their peak and £60m on a back up striker with Kane as our starting striker.
You don't think we'd spend the exact same amount, spent on Sanchez, on a centre back that would start for us and arguably be our best centre half?
Yes, you are.
That's fine of course.
Love the club, HATE the owners.
It's Tottenham Hotspur FC, not ENIC FC.
Some on here need to be reminded of this fact....daily.
It's subjective, I and others might want to talk about ENIC here, like for example whether Kane will be sold or not. It comes down to whether Levy will or not accept a bid.
We are reminded of it daily!Yes, you are.
That's fine of course.

I think you're being ridiculously obtuse
And I won't be too upset
He’ll be a starter in the the first PL game for sure. That’s if he’s still here.
Players Management committee member don’t forget…
Think Conte is well known for using very few players through a season.
I actually think a lot of coaches struggle to rotate successfully, and it's the ones who can, that do well in the cups.
Making 6 - 11 changes is dumb. Making no changes is dumb. Somewhere in the middle is the sweet spot
We lost 4-3 iirc surprisingly we only conceded 4 goals with that defence
Absolutely ridiculous to say you hate someone that you haven’t even met! That is so over the top.Yes, you are.
That's fine of course.

As someone who sees the good and the bad that Levy/ENIC has done for this Club and sits somewhere in the middle of the extremists on this site, my honest opinion is those that are so anti Levy/ENIC are less likely to admit any of the good than those so called LevyBots can admit the mistakes and the bad.
Now let’s get back to discussing transfers, we all know we need some CB’s, but getting a keeper in and a very good Maddison has been a decent start to the window. I’m far more excited about him than I was with the entire incomings last season. Add Bissouma now will get a real opportunity with Ange and Lloris’ mistakes (God love him) won’t be throwing ball into our goal and we have something to look forward to….it’s July 9 and the window really just opened.
I’m really looking forward to see what Ange can do with even the deadwood, if the the attitude changes who fucking knows right?
COYS
The lesson for me is get a settled squad as soon as possible, integrate as soon as possible, develop the system as soon as possible and hit the ground running.
We have a history of taking for fucking ever with the above and worse still, making signings after the season has started - why the window doesnt close the day before the season starts I don’t know.
We have the Kane thing going on - not our fault, and we are about to embark on a trip half way around the world to play some friendlies against a couple of sides no more than a couple of hours away from us without what is likely going to be our preferred centre back pairing.
Many other people would if it were 75% of the posts as it has been recently.
I have the ENIC thread on ignore.
I have the two worst offenders on ignore.
What I can’t stop is the responses to their idiocy from posters I generally enjoy interacting with and the little pack of acolytes. On a slow day, these threads are infested.
There is a dedicated thread to call Levy bald and tight and Lewis old and tight — along with the bullshit about how Levy personally scouts the players and is responsible for every aspect of every transfer.
There is absolutely no need for this to be in a transfer thread It’s spam.
I wouldn't agree with them also.
How about just saying that you’re pleased with the (club’s) signing? Levy isn’t synonymous for Tottenham or its recruitment.
I hope we do.
I am sure you're more than capable of ignoring those particular posts, better that than get into a needless cuntoff about spelling, that just ends up in clutter,
Levy is involved in transfers,it's down to him what players we end up buying, He has history both good and bad, it's really to be expected in a transfer thread.
