Behave... he's bang average. Genk pulled Leicester's pants down by getting 17m for him. If we drop 25m then we might as well wave the white flag now. Leicester were shit last season and this guy was a contributing factor to that. I'd love to know what data has been used to identify a player who struggled in the PL last season as a viable option this season. Plus he fucks off for a month in Jan to sit on the bench for Morocco in the ACN. This will be a new low for Levy if this is our ambition.

I think the data behind it is Leicester have to sell, he's cheap and we're desperate.
I dont see anything there at all, looks completely average. Would have rather given Donley the game time.
Exactly. levy told us this at the end of last season.I've been thinking why we are so inactive (yes I know we just signed Palhinha on loan) and it's got to be because we can't get rid of anyone. Even Biss doesn't look that close to an exit.
I think we are waiting to shift one or two higher earners before bringing anyone else except loans.
Sad state of affairs with the season approaching.
Just because we beat them in the Europa final, I do not see why so many are comparing us to them. MU have always been the biggest English club worldwide and players even from abroad supported them as a child and so would choose them. Their trophy haul over the last 50 years dwarfs ours.
I think they would qualify yes. But since then son has left and maddison is buggered. Perhaps I could have phrased my thoughts better there.
Partner that with palhinha being a loan ehich saves on transfer fee, it seems very underwhelming.
In my mind I thought even with being sensible and sustainable we would easily be able to buy 3 x 60-70m players. Not young ones that need alot of work but finished articles.
We’re probably waiting for Everton to agree a fee for Tyler Dibling before we pounce . That’s a very Levy signing .
Answer C- nothing beats Levy time and the quest to win the financial fair play award.
Just follow Sky Sports News if you want to only hear about Spurs transfers. I'll go one better, just switch on an hour before the window closes. Nothing will happen until then.
I amended the original post 10 minutes later, how did you not see that?
I see nothing
Its money. Ffp doesnt apply to them, city, chelscum or woolwich. Just us according to levy
Maddison is the one we didn't plan on obviously. Son says he told the club in June. That's prob why they made Tel permanent quickly.
My thoughts at the start of the window was 2 or 3 experienced signings, with Frank working with some additional youngsters to back up/supplement the squad.
Lots of youngsters have gone on loan though, with the rumour of more left to place out at clubs.
Think that'll leave us short squad-wise so I'm confident we'll get more signings. Whether they'll be of the standard to please the TFC brain trust we'll have to see.
Just the sort of post that should not be clogging up this thread.
The other clubs are doing it all wrong apparently.
Results might say otherwise, but that's what we are being force fed anyway.
They are not. West Ham not bothered Kudus has gone and Palhinha is good but not a top player. Top players don't come to Spurs on loan. They would have suitors from top clubs. Neither of these additions move the dial and with Son gone, Maddison fucked we are arguably worse than last season. Frank has been fucked over and once again, it's going to get very toxic very quickly...
Does that mean Frank knew Sonny was leaving when he took the job? Same as Ange knew H was leaving.
No idea. Sure I read somewhere that Frank tried to ask Son to stay but couldn't convince him but that doesn't really tell us whether he knew before taking the job or not.
