What's Solomon done to get in with those two? Had a couple of bright pre-season friendlies and a meh performance in the league cup?

Not saying he's bad either. But at least the other two have started to prove the 'haters' wrong by actually playing well.

He's a decent player. So long as we don't undermine that by playing him in a bollocks fully rotated, dysfunctional B-team then we'll see that in our shirt.

Opportunistic signing? Possibly, but someone that Ange reportedly had his eye on pre-Spurs.

yeh and you seem to be forgetting him playing very well, us shutting up shop and looking comfortable and the opposition creating next to nothing.

Don't worry if he leaves you will see. Then we can all pretend to be surprised and get angry at eachother.
Some will never recognize PEH. They forget he's played the most minutes for Spurs since his arrival.

And this was a constant for almost all seasons he was there. He is what one needs to calm a game down when defending a small lead.

But that will be chalked down to boring Conté/Jose Ball again.

ah how the might have fallen
 
I do wish Sky would fuck off with the 'SLAMS SHUT' rhetoric. There is no slamming involved - there is a window, it is open for a period (known to all concerned for a very long time in advance), then at the end of that window, it closes. No need for the hyperbole.

(PS: Boring self-indulgent note: People talk a lot of shit about doors and windows actually. How many times have I heard someone say 'ah well, when one door closes, another one opens'. No it doesn't. That's not generally how doors work. If your doors work like that, there is something wrong with your house).

(PPS: Yes I have been drinking, so what? It's both Friday and Transfer Deadline Day. :/ ).
 
If that is the case, Poch failed to get better kids into the academy.

And with his own pet project bought Juan Foyth for £10m, failed to develop him properly so when he made his debut 2 years later gave away 2 pens , lasted another year or two playing a total of 14 games before being sold. So complete failure to develop a player

Meanwhile one of the players Poch sold for a song, Milos Veljkovic, played CB for Werder Bremen when Kane made his debut for Bayern. World Class ? No but good enough to have played 200 times for Werder Bremen and a regular for Serbia National Team ........ so probably could have been an HG squad player for us.

But with Poch attitude to developing youth a few good ones left early so they could develop elsewhere, Madueke is a classic example - Spurs u16 captain - who could have stayed rather than being a 35m or 40m acquisition for Chelsea
Are people starting to see that Poch wasn't perfect after all?
There's still some fans that think he should still be here now.
