I have no idea who did that. Other than the people who kept wanting to give Ndombele chances .. which is because in fairness he was talented.
Doherty was the epitome of an ENIC signing - fucking cheap and opportunistic, shite footballer. Aurier was on the dumb end of ENIC signings where they like to ignore all the red flags as long as the club selling are desperate to get rid and we can 'do a deal'. Gil is a wet fart.
LOL...... The usual suspects shat all over it every damn time........ None more so when Doherty was loaned out to Madrid.
"Celebrated".......? Some of the same cunts couldn't even bring themselves to celebrate us winning a European Trophy.
Gil is still here
Why? Plenty of rumours we are including Mokbel who is pretty good for transfer stuff.
I don't usually agree with him but he's right.
I know on paper we need to sell before we buy but fuck that. Because what happens if we don't sell is we end up not signing anyone and giving the likes of Bissouma another season. We've seen this before with ndombele.
Biss came up clutch in the europa league final but he's put in 3 consistent years of being completely inconsistent! Excuse the irony. He's totally unreliable and it's a massive gamble if we go into next season with him expected to play close to 50% of games. Buy a replacement now and if we can't sell him then so be it.
Same applies to Son and Richarlison. I'm open to keeping one but keeping both without signing an upgrade is another big gamble! Richarlison could be out injured for 3 months by September and all of a sudden we are asking Solanke to play every 3 days until we run him onto the ground

You’ll see that change if we sign Wissa and tell him he’s not in the CL squad in a WC year. His agent will have him out of here in a week or two. We’ve got to be ruthless.
Because where is he going to play for us?
Since when did we drop that sort of money on a player turning 29 this year
That’s 2 for starters
Congratulations
You have just posted a coherent message, see you can do it occasionally
Isn't he saying that getting rid of them led people to say that was "not acting like a big club"?
The opposite is true. Us just paying Doherty to fuck off so we could get Porro onto the squad and not mess with any of our loans was lauded precisely for being a big club mentality.
And who wasn't happy when Ndombele was finally written off the books?
We are buf don't think we are as keen as Newcastle.
Think we are doing the whole "let's see if we can sell richarlison" first thing. Which means we'll miss out!
You're the Raziak of comebacks.
Like the link with Mainoo. But why would United wanna sell him and to us? Not gonna happen.
He fucked his ankle against Palace in one of his first games. I remember Poch saying at the time it would be likely he would never play pain free again for the rest of his career. So it obviously hampered him. Typical Spurs.
They've been prepared for this for years and had to understand that Frank leaving was going to represent the cork coming out of the bottle.
You'd back them to spend all this money wisely.
The point he made was quite clear....... People just worked it as an angle from which to criticise. Damned if you do; damned if you don't.
Haha..... You and I both know you don't truly believe that's how it went down.
I was here, I literally said exactly that.
What kind of gaslighting is this?
Flight of the Levybots today, I swear
