Rubbish. They were beaten by the biggest financial dopers in the league.
The problem is throwing a load of callow defenders and keeper together is no answer even if they are good players if you don’t have leadership and communication. Defending is more about partnerships and working as a unit than individuals.40m for a leader that sits on the bench?
He’s a good player but would be another perfect symptom of the shit show going on with the squad planning,
They were supposedly clearing a load out to start a rebuild. This would be just adding more clutter. Starting to look like Levy is going a bit senile tbh
Both did it, I am comparing Woolwich and Spurs in the similar situations. Little or no investment when first buying a new stadiumHmm. I don’t know if I buy the austerity line when these stadiums are built with debt.
Levy is a parisite.
And guess what - this year will be the same. For the last two summer windows I have said to people on this forum saying “we won the window” to wait till Christmas. And how right I was each time. Shambles of a club.

Tbh with Levy starting to look increasingly senile and unable to organize his thoughts but not stepping away from football decisions, Dyche revival could see Everton overtaking us as well.
Great Post.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

The last I read about Ndombele is that Ange wanted to give him a fresh start, so if we're backing the manager why would we sell him for £20m?Besides..... If we were offered 20m for Ndombele or Sanchez (similar OG pricetags) we'd rip their arm off.
I refer the honourable gentleman to fattynomates post above.......Point is they are a well run club. They have a great season and the invest substantially in the squad to get even better.
We have a great season, nearly win the league, and we do nothing.
Levy is a parisite.
And guess what - this year will be the same. For the last two summer windows I have said to people on this forum saying “we won the window” to wait till Christmas. And how right I was each time. Shambles of a club.
Won more trophies for Spurs than Poch did, you illiterate twat. Put me back in ignore.
Not true. Severance and redundancy can be capitalised as part of reorganisation and stretched over a longer termThat's a mis-nomer......
If you pay them off the expense is very much ON the books.
.......The Arse brown-nosing on this forum is fucking sickening.
They absolutely bottled it.
They also bottled it the year before when we overtook them for the CL position.Imagine not thinking they didn’t bottle last season (and the season before that too in terms of top four).
I think Van De Ven is the one we should be pushing for the most. He’s 22,just about to break into the Dutch team,lightening quick,left footed,can play left back and won’t be going to the African Nations in January. We need to sign a left footed centre back for the balance of the side and not Lenglet as first choice. Tapsoba looks the part and would love to get him too and between those two and Romero we’d be stronger than most teams in that position.
For who?Yeah, the prospect of Pep leaving City is pretty terrifying, tbh.
Horrific.......The Arse brown-nosing on this forum is fucking sickening.
They absolutely bottled it.
