You're entitled to like or dislike whoever you want. But you have to remember Johnson came in late, had no pre-season with the team, had to learn Ange's system of play on the fly and still posted good numbers. I know some people like their wingers to be skilful and be able to dribble past a couple of defenders like Doku or Nico Williams but at the end of the season their numbers are similar to BJs. I think Johnson will have a big season.After BJ, I'm not sure I trust his judgement.
£50M
*don't give me any 'muh GA' hocus-pocus, he's rubbish
Dunno wasn’t countingHow many crosses do we put in the air under Ange?
If that is genuinely what you believe is the Ethos of Levy and ENIC despite the 20 plus years of evidence that has borne out before us all, then you truly are lost my friend.Attacking football, buying players who can blossom into stars who require a coach who can get the most out of them.
I wish I shared your optimism mate.I think that with the income from the new stadium coming through Levy will spend a lot more especially as we are in an advantaged position as regards FFP. W
This is why ENIC get away with being the only big six club who don't deliver.If that is genuinely what you believe is the Ethos of Levy and ENIC despite the 20 plus years of evidence that has borne out before us all, then you truly are lost my friend.

When you have fans who, are just content with, a bit of attacking football and, developing younger players and selling them on, then you are not going to be in the queue for prizes.
Unfortunately there are many like that who, are not really interested in seeing a successful club and, defend levy to the hilt , it's sad and strange in equal measure.
Keep him and let him develop with us as we know we will buy bang average players instead. Just give the kids who have potential a start. Keep saying it buy 3 top quality players, promote some youngsters for Europa / League cup and subs in PL and get a couple of unknown hidden gems or players who come on the market which are great deals.Would be an awful loan tbh.
I started this transfer window confident that we would spend big and fill some positions that needed upgrading. It could still happen, but I am not as confident now.I think that with the income from the new stadium coming through Levy will spend a lot more especially as we are in an advantaged position as regards FFP.

Our most effective attacking player bar Son last season
You can’t just disregard stats pal
He’s not the finished article but he’s far, far from rubbish
Watch me.
There's a "reason" if Adeyemi is for sale already at that price. He arrived at Dortmund with lots of hype and he cost them €38m (in 2022), and only 2 years later, at the age of 22, his fee went down. There's some "smoke" right there. His "attitude" was already questioned while he was at Bayern (from 2010-12). But he's the type of player Spurs need though: fast, technical, left-footed, can play as WLF, WRF & CF.Dortmund looking to sell Adeyemi for about 25 million and United wanting about 40 million for Sancho.
I'd buy them. Pity we paying such a hefty salary fee for Timo Werner.
Why not?I started this transfer window confident that we would spend big and fill some positions that needed upgrading. It could still happen, but I am not as confident now.
Genuine answerI wish I shared your optimism mate.
Adeyemi is Werner on steroids from what I've seen. More explosive but if anything less reliable infront of goalThere's a "reason" if Adeyemi is for sale already at that price. He arrived at Dortmund with lots of hype and he cost them €38m (in 2022), and only 2 years later, at the age of 22, his fee went down. There's some "smoke" right there.

Adeyemi hits back at critics: "Strange how people judge someone they don't know"
Karim Adeyemi has brushed off criticism that his relationship with Kosovo Albanian rapper Loredana has had a negative impact on his performances.bulinews.com
Sancho seem to have the same attitude problem that Spence has: although both are "nice" they seem to lack discipline and often shows up late for practice, etc.
Because fans know absolutely fuck all.Fans ,overall, are not convinced by Richy so why not sell him and get 2 new strikers in?
Hard to sell a 60m asset who is determined to stay and prove themselvesFans ,overall, are not convinced by Richy so why not sell him and get 2 new strikers in?
Some will never understand. Good luck trying to make them understand. Levy Lovers make a point of trying to justify why Huge Real Estate Builds will ultimately Build a Better team. They also try to justify all Levy's punt Transfers. Even though the record shows how much we've spent on players, potentially the next Lionel Messi, that end up just being Messy (Ndombele, Gil, Spence....). We don't have die hard Football Fans anymore. We have Accountants that drool at the thought of being the 8th richest club in the world with not one trophy to show in..... Forever. And they still try to justify it.This is why ENIC get away with being the only big six club who don't deliver.
