Shame we didn't get the 194 points needed last season to be top of that points per £1m chart

I don't think anyone wants him to fail.
Our forward play is dynamic and fun.
The other side of it is... airy.
I think people just want to see him pull his pants up and sort a couple of things out that will help us loads.
40 million on a backup fullback instead of a starting winger, someone end this awful window already please
They’re completely misdiagnosing the problems with this squad

If we give up on another project by Christmas Levy needs to step down.
Not at all. It will work out fine !!!
I'd say considering 10 days ago we weren't linked with anyone and within that time have signed Solanke for 60m, who's been confirmed as the managers top choice, we probably do know what we're doing.
We just haven't got Paratici involved with leaking numerous different footballers in the media to keep things ticking over during the quiet moments.
When it comes to squad size and spending Madueke is actually right....

Cunt. Don’t want him anywhere near the club.
You’re not spurs
Yes but it’s bollox don’t forget
Some daft cunt on Spurs Community has posted the following. To be fair, this hasn’t come from one of the so called ITKs, just a random, so there might actually be a morsel of truth in it:
Good afternoon, I am not ITK of any sort however, I had some information given to me yesterday by someone within the Brighton camp that we are getting Simon Adingra. I’m just passing this on as I know nothing about him

Yeah, only explanation to me is that he would cover mainly RW area, and just only sometimes RB. Otherwise it makes no sense.

Note the tweet re Vandeson is from the same person who said we'd get him when Emerson Royal was sold back in June (and he's replied to himself).
So his logic is - Royal sold so Vanderson in, as he doesn't know Spence is back playing fir Spurs to cover RB/LB plus Gray can play RB|.
So probably not a serious tweet at all
If we spend £35m on a RB I’ll lose my fucking shit.
Is Vanderson any good? Whats his attributes? Is he quick, modern right back bombing down wing and good defender? If were getting him then spence must be going.
I don't mate no, I did say it was disappointing.
The trouble is, we're trying to discern a pattern with nothing more than smoke & mirrors in the media, which is why I'm keeping my powder dry.
More Right backs and jack of all trade midfielders please
What context?
People appreciate he wanted to ingrain his system.
Been pretty patient tbf.
Ange was the one who came out and said he didn't need to fix set-pieces
Yes, he did end up addressing it, but it looks like we've reverted to disorganisation again when we should have consolidated.
Looks like he went hybrid zonal/man for some reason, when he appeared to go pretty much man-for-man near end of season.
It's not hard for fans to see what's going on.
There's no wizardry at play.
Ange plays high-risk football, heavily attack weighted and relies on speedy scramble recovery to prevent the oppo scoring.
Ange had gathered enough info throughout a whole season to come to pre-season and show he's ON IT.
Again, go catch one of Liverpool's pre-season games and the tactical work slot has done in such a short period of time.
"Fitness" is what teams with super ingrained, solid, properly established, functioning systems might be about in pre-season.
Effectively addressing tactical failure is we've been in need of.
You don't focus only on fitness and park that up until the first day of the season and then see if your tweaks might work.
What are we even doing here???
Ange wants cover in every position imo as wants to challenge for everything. Weve done well clearing the deadwood this summer.
Quick and skillful. Perfect inverted full back and his underlying metrics are basically on par with Porro.
I'd say he was probably better defensively than Porro but maybe not quite as good offensively.
He's better than Spence. But not 40m more better. Plus Spence is already here and is HG so he helps alot.
Think this is one of the best squads weve had in a long time. Just have reservations if vdv gets injured and maddison dont pick up form. Thats why id like eze to.push maddison for his place.
