Look, there's an argument to be made about going all in this year that we are playing one match a week and actually challenge for the title itself. Had we done that in Poch's second year, we might have pipped Lessester to the title. But the only one who can make that assessment is the manager himself and I have no idea what's in Ange's head. The little I know about him, however, he seems to be one that focuses on implementing his philosophy, first and foremost. So maybe he has already written off the results this season in favor of that, meaning that more signings or staying put will probably not make much difference to how he approaches year 1 at Spurs.Depends on whether you want to see the club really push to win or if you are cool with the status quo of how they have always behaved.
Keeper had excellent abilities and stat . People whining about him were silly. And a cheap punt is the best kind of punt. BJ has 8 goals to his name, we already have a shit striker for £60m who cant score, spending another £50m on another random is stupid. Expensive punts are stupid.So our Keeper was considered shite as he was apparently a cheap punt, but then when we are linked to BJ for £50 million apparently thats too much money to pay?![]()

Maybe this is what Ange and co are seeing in Brennan Johnson. His championship highlights look a good bit better than what I've seen of him in the PL.
Maybe they're hoping in that in a better team he can take a step up and show that little bit of extra finesse and composure he wasn't showing in the PL.
That's the thing with highlights though, how many crosses, shots, good buildup were fluffed before he managed to get the ones that ended up in highlights.

What difference does it make? We're averaging 2 goals a game and also averaging an xG of 2.0, which shows we're not fluking the 2 goals per game average.
Yeah, £15m is far too low for a player of his experience and age. Tbh, I think £30m is the absolute floor in terms of an acceptable figure in today's market.
The keeper was someone who we identified as being the right fit and so far its proving to be good scouting, as long as BJ is the same the cost to me is irrelevant really. I'd much rather Levy go out and actually get Big Ange his targets, and if that is BJ then lets get it done.Keeper had excellent abilities and stat . People whining about him were silly.

Yes but unfortunately Rodon does as well.
I don’t think he’s very good and has proven that under multiple managers. And if we get a decent offer we should take it if we are a well-run club. Does anyone really want to see him playing through a press like we were last Saturday if Romero gets injured?
Absent being in Ange's head, I don't think it will be easy to understand the thinking. We don't see what he sees, so in some cases we just have to have to put our faith in him that he knows what he's doing. Even if it doesn't make sense to us outside observers.Oh certainly!
To be clear, I'm not criticising anyone or anything, I just don't really understand the thinking.

Truth is I have watched a few games and in those BJ was always a sub. Rodon always started. At Forest I’ve only seen his goals in highlights.
The point is who gives a fuck what we all think and I honestly can’t see why so many approve or disapprove of any signing we are considering because until they play for Spurs we really don’t know what they will bring.
I sincerely hope that our recruitment team is watching thousands of hours live and TV footage because that is their job. If they want BJ then who the fuck are we to say yes or no?
If Ange wants him I’m all for him and I do t care what he costs as long as he fits in
I'm just a glass half full kinda lassI could do with a change in my prescription. Genuinely curious, what are you on? As it's got to be some top notch stuff![]()
