Supply and demand. I'm not as down on Jackson as some of you. He's not clinical, but the dude's physical attributes are immense, and for a team that uses fast breaks he could be very decent.

I gave you a sad smiley because its True, and its Sad!!!!!For me excitement lies in your attacking capabilities.
We've gone from Kane and Son to Richy and Johnson. I can't get excited by that.
It's the first time in my life that I don't get to watch at least 1 elite/world class forward at Spurs.

Why’s it always got to be about “if the right opportunity arises”? Why do we not do what every other big club does and identify the best player available for the position, and go spend the money to get them?
In 18 months Time i'm 100% certain he will be loving life...............away from Spurs !!!!!

1. Ring Atletico, tell them they can have Romero for 60mil & Bentancur for 20...but we get Oblak for 5 (Lille get Kinsky for 10) and Gallagher for 25The same will happen to Frank unless we pull in 3 top signings before the window closes
The Forest lad Murillo is as good as Micky...if not better.
I like Sarr, good player, works hard, nice enough kid too...but no way is he a top 4 player at this stage.
True, but to use an educational analogy, whilst the #1 importance to a student is the grade they achieve in an exam, they know that the more revision they do in preparation for that exam, the better their chances of achieving a higher grade. Given our league performance over the last season and a half, it feels like we should have had a clear 'revision' plan mapped out long ago... instead, it looks like we're trying to do a bit of last minute cramming.The #1 importance of a window is it's subsequent impact.
This window isn't even over yet; let alone revealed its impact yet.
So what your saying is we are the "TK Max" of the Premier league!Tottenham shop for players like I shop for clothes.
I wouldn't pay £60 for a £60 hoodie.
But it was £160 reduced to £60 I'm all over it.
But I don't run a football club, I just make sure I don't do a Leeds every month before I get paid.

Actually, with Son, Kulu and Madisson out we will need to find 33 goals and 34 assists from elsewhere. So probably closer to 75% of goal threat lost.
Johnson is not a player who creates his own chances, so without supply, his goal tally will be non-existent.
So, the only create player on the pitch will be Porro - who in Franks system will be playing less attacking.
Frank will be gone by the 2nd international break unless he somehow comes up with a system that works.
| 2024-25 | Goals | Goals | Assists | Assists | |
| EPL | CUPS | EPL | CUPS | TOTAL | |
| Son | 7 | 4 | 9 | 2 | 22 |
| Johnson | 11 | 7 | 3 | 1 | 22 |
| Solanke | 9 | 7 | 3 | 5 | 24 |
| Maddison | 9 | 3 | 7 | 3 | 22 |
| Kulusevski | 7 | 3 | 4 | 7 | 21 |
Which is how I like to remember them despite all 3 receiving their fair share of stick during their tenure.Is it me, or do neither of them look that special in the data?
It’s just mad to me that we’ve fallen so far from Eriksen, Dele and Dembele in CM
I know, I know...turn off Football Manager, stay off them crystals etc etc.1. Ring Atletico, tell them they can have Romero for 60mil & Bentancur for 20...but we get Oblak for 5 (Lille get Kinsky for 10) and Gallagher for 25
2. Give Fulham 30mil + Biss for Robinson
3. Give Palace that 70mil we got in the safe from last Jan for Guehi...and send Drag to them for 15-20 mil next Jan
4. Ring Bilbao, put MGW's 60mil + 40 new mil on the table for Nico Williams...loan Tel out, release Bryan Gil, let Leeds have Solomon for 10 mil
5. Get PSG on the blower and ask about a loan with option to buy for Gonçalo Ramos...drive Richy to the middle of the Mojave desert, blindfold & hogtie him, drive away
* Not necessarily in that order
