Burnley done, PSG pushed all the way in the Super Cup – shows exactly where we are. Close. Not perfect, but close.

That’s why it’s so clear: now’s the time to spend. A proper 10, someone like Eze, add a bit of quality like Savinho – and this side is ready to go up a level. It’s not about tearing things down, it’s about topping up while the foundations are solid.

Problem is, we’ve seen this movie. Levy thinks “good enough” is good enough, counts the pennies, and suddenly we’re left wondering what might’ve been. He cannot hide this window. No excuses. Back it, or it’s on him.
 
Had a dream last night that I got a job as a trainee negotiating transfers for spurs. My first deal was with peterborough and Barry Fry for their 16 year old left back. I offered 5mil, Fry said he wanted 9mil and a corner shop near their ground which was owned by Levy. I put him on hold and chatted to the boss, Levy. He called Fry all the names under the sun and said to make a counter offer of 1.5mil. I was learning from the master.

If we push these two over the line it’s a squad that can rival Poch’s in a year. Maybe no Kane or Lloris but the rest will be comparable. And with much greater depth and 4 or 5 young players who you know will be much better in 2/3 years.

We are on the edge of something beautiful.

Come on my little chatte chauve.

Levy has acted too late, granted. Which is stupid as fuck.

But he’s not as stupid as to think a win against Burnley makes everything ok. And to then fuck off weeks or months of work on these outstanding deals.

I have done thousands of 2 bob deals in my time. The first question I always ask is "How much do you want?"
The second question is "How much do you really want?"
Who offers to pay anything?
