Yeah they're making high upside signings with very little PL experience.

They finished 1 point above us last season. One of the worst seasons we've had in the last decade. The talk like they're miles ahead of us is crazy.
They are going after their top targets and getting them.

With Levy at the wheel, we will likely end up with our 3rd or 4th CB down the list.

I like Solomon but he’s a punt in comparison to Diaby and maybe even Doku.

They got screwed by one DOF, so they just went out and got another one.

We went from the chaos of FP resigning to Munn now not even able to officially start and still no sign of a DOF.

Then there is the Kane situation which has been allowed to become a mess where Ange is already wanting it sorted.

Mr Levy and our board are getting further and further out of their depth as each week goes by.
 
We've spent all the money Levy is gonna spend in this window - most of it going on Maddison. Not sure why people are expecting Levy to suddenly get flash with the cash - we won't be seeing Levy now for the rest of the window

Levy after the Maddison signing:

Our squad is still man to man better than theirs. Even with our current CB situation.

Quite convenient to compare Solomon to Diaby, but no mention of us signing Maddison.

Kane, Maddison, Son (if he can get back) are better than anyone they have. Bissouma is better than any MF they have.

Oh they signed Pau Torres who is on par with Lenglet.
 
What exactly did I do?

And now I’m pro Enic because I don’t follow your cult of miserable sods even though I clearly stated I want enic out? This is why many people don’t like your cult.

I like to talk football.
I made a joke about posters on here taking all summer to come up with spend wisely! You then attacked me for it for no reason. Yet you’re the so called happy one?!
Read my post & then the fact you choose to respond to it & your actual response. You don’t come across as the happy one.
I think you were being defensive about enic/levy when I didn’t even criticise/mention them. You’re getting paranoid everyone is out to get levy/enic. Even posts not mentioning/criticising them gets you annoyed!
& you seem grumpy about other posters like me rather than the Happy go lucky vibe you think you give off.

Here is what I posted

Phew! Finally read all 1252 pages! & the geniuses on TFC have discovered the secret to transfer window success. Wait for it……..
Don’t spend it unwisely!!!
Here’s me & the Tottenham transfer team all devising ways to spend it unwisely. That was a close escape.

Come on, your response was very touché & unwarranted if you are being honest!

Perhaps I wasn’t clear enough.

If you ran the club I see one of two things happening.

1) you blow the entire summer budget within 3 days of the window opening.

2) you decide to not make a budget and spend as much as your heart’s content. Then 3ish years from now, you don’t have enough income to cover the creditors and the club goes into administration.

None of this is saying levy is doing a good job. It’s just how I feel about the “it’s not my money” crowd.

I have never said spend recklessly 100s of millions every window. So I think you have got that wrong. We need to spend more than we have done over ENICs tenure & we need to spend more wisely as you & others have suggested. I think you guys make up an argument to argue against. As though fans like me want to spend 400m every season.

It comes across as you being a levy/enic fan by the fact you get very touché & grumpy with joke posts like me because I am anti them. Why else the touché reply to a harmless little joke. & then calling us all miserable sods despite you being very miserable in response to a harmless joke!

Maybe I have got you wrong & you want levy out? But I doubt it! I feel like you want him in & get annoyed at any Criticism of him. If I am wrong then You should prioritise Your family to invest that emotional energy in to being protective over. Rather than the likes of millionaires who don’t give a crap about you.

Anyway. It’s boring for everyone so best we agree to disagree!
