Agree, but I hope Deki sees more time as an 8 as he's not doing us any favours in this system being stuck on the wing and slowing down the transitions. Can still overlap the RW and play the low cross across the box, or get on the end of one as he did so well against Bournemouth.

Would rather Solomon as depth to Johnson unless we are against a low block.

I thought Deki has 1+1 in the two last League games. In my world that's contributing.

If you found that condescending then I'm not going to apologise because it wasn't addressed to you, I would probably respond in to you in the way which wouldn't upset you but seeing as you chose to throw out some personal abuse you can go jump off the Skywalk.

PM me if you have a problem with the way I speak or you can attempt to rebuttal what I said...if not don't bother responding and just stick me on ignore if my posts make you emotional, cheers. :thumbup:

I apologise as I shouldn’t have got personal , I just see everyone on here as spurs fans so it’s “us” to constantly see you referring to people as “you guys” or you lot comes across as really condescending!
Any way like I said apologies as there was no need to get personal!

Fairs and I apologise if you took offence to it, I'm just fed up of the constant moving of the goalposts and selective arguments when it comes to this subject all the time, no harm :)

If you don't count Brennan Johnson, VDV, etc. we're at -110m net spend, proof that Levy is pocketing the cash!

Massively underrated comment

I hate Levy more than anyone here. But even I'm sick of people deducting money spent to "prove" we haven't spent money. That's just plain fucking dumb that is.

Atletico M. have pissed off and pissed on Højbjerg, Spurs and Bayern. Well done.
While Højbjerg kinda pissed on himself as well and pissed off Spurs and Bayern.

PEH hasn't done us dirty (I've seen it suggested)....... Would you sign for Fullham whilst AM are flirting with you? (The Fulham deal would have fallen through anyway cos of Paulinha staying.)

Meanwhile, another 4 months here won't hurt him especially.... Jan is a good window for a player like him.

I think it’s a lot fairer for this season to be a write off as we rebuild post Kane and recover from Post traumatic Jose/Nuno/Conte disorder rather than the last three seasons where we’ve just bottled it.

I don't think any season should be considered a write off (eeeeeespecially only 3 games deep!)....... You play it for what it is every time.... An open canvas.

1. For the purposes of competitive mentality..... Something commonly complained about. Esp. of late.
2. Lester.

The manager recommended three CBs and that wee bastard didn’t buy one.
So where is the Kane money going to Levy, your mate who’s in deep shit in USA?????
Get out Levy, sell up to someone who has the ambition.

You can't add up, can you?
VdV is a CB, so that's 1.
The Kane money was spent on....
£16m - Vicario
£40m - Maddison
£40m - VdV
£15m - Veliz
£3m - Philips
£45m - Johnson

Appreciate you haven't got enough fingers for this, so here goes...

£159,000,000 spent
Plus Porro fee £40m
Plus Kulu fee £25m

That's comfortably over £200m
We got (up to) £100m for Kane and £10m for Winks

So went spent the Kane money. And we spent the Winks money. And we spent about £100m more.

As is often the case with us, it's not how much we've spent, it's how we've spent it. Only time will tell tbh

Clearly Ange was happier buying Johnson than any of the CB's available for that £50m.

And I'd trust his opinion more than any poster. Equally Levy has a reputation for being tight, so he's clearly not going to want to spend £50m except to back his manager.

If that is true, then that's the way it should be.
I would also be more ok with it if that's what the manager wants...but I'm not so sure, levy has previous for club signings
