Totally shambolic as usualI get it that Attack is the best form of defence, but surely Defence would be a pretty good form of defence as well therefore go and sign some defenders, Baldy!

Thx.
Duplo contributions to Technical Lego discussions are becoming quite the specialty.
(You're also doing things that those I was debating with told me not too......)
Best teams always build from the back, look at how much money City have spent on defenders under Pep.
To expect us to have to score at least 2 or maybe 3 goals per game in order to get anything out of it, is only going to end in disaster. Heck if Kane leaves and isn't replaced we might struggle to get one per game!
It's the usual shit from the decision makers at our club, I'm sure Ange is fuming behind the scenes.

A TFC specialty.
The thought that those two played together at CBs in a back 4 in a real game of football sends me over the edge
Until we get a good CB in to play alongside Romero, especially when playing a high defensive line, and fullbalcks that arsen't renowned for their defensive play, it's going to be like being on a rollercoaster ride for me when watching.
No point in watching us ever again I guess
Nah. I've always been that way.
It's more down to the Bergwijn, Sissoko, Ndombele, Sanchez, Soldado, Rebrov, Richarlison, Bentley, Paulinho etc. etc.
What Levy IS accountable for however, is the complete shambles of our recruitment "team"
With Forster as well. Doesn't feel real does it.
Still a huge upgrade over last year’s matches where supporters did their best not to fall asleep
Don't forget
Vertonghen, Walker, Dembele, Van Der Vaart, Berbatov, Modric, Bale, Sando, Rose, Eriksen, Alderwierld, Lamela, Wanyama, Alli, Bentencur
Yes agreed, it will be entertaning, I just can't get that 3rd West Ham goal the other week out of my mind, the one where they beat our high defensive line and their player was clean through.
Rather Davies than Sanchez / Dier
Are you saying they were all expensive flops? Surely not.
It’s not just the spending though. It’s the way in which they’ve spent their money in comparison to ours.
And I’m not just talking about how poor our scouting/recruitment has been etc. I’m talking about how Woolwich have backed Arteta to the hilt with top quality players in key positions on the football pitch.
Consistent 30,40,60, 100(!) million pound players over the last few years that have bolstered their team and squad to make them challengers.
They finished second last season and they have gone out and signed a 60 million attacker, a 100 million midfielder and a 40 million defender, and are looking at potentially signing a 40 million goalkeeper. That is backing and ambition that our owners have never shown and will never show.
And despite that moron that you replied to trying to spin it that any Spurs fan who raises this point is “praising Woolwich to put down Spurs” or any such nonsense, it couldn’t be further than the truth. It sickens me to my core that Woolwich have got it together so well and are now operating on a totally different level to us for no other reason that their owners have woken up and realised they could be on to something, and it should be pointed out at every opportunity that this is the case.
There is absolutely no reason that if Woolwich can compete at the top end of the market we can’t too.
They’ll always be a few good signings but the vast majority of signings under Levy & ENIC have been duds. 6 of the players you’ve listed saw what direction we were going in & moved onto bigger & better things
I mean it’s not really the same when you know where it’s going to land
You're crushing my vibe mate.
