Good shout, will depend on the meal.
So who has any confidence he won’t overcook it . I think the buyer will be the people who bought the stadium naming rights 6 or 7 years ago . One of Daniel’s very best deals to to this dayExactly. So.... in actual fact we should be celebrating when we have a bad window and don't really sign anyone.
I am at the point where I am desperate to see us sell, regardless that may be an American investment portfolio, Petro billionaire, European tech industry nerd, I'm past caring. Someone posted something rather astute in here the other day about how even though we are worth supposedly £3.5bn and our income is gargantuan in purely footballing terms etc etc, as a % of the valuation and fluid capital, and in a further sense borrowing power, of ENIC, we represent a huge % of the total valuation of both Lewis' net worth, ENIC's company worth and Levy's personal worth.
I think a massive reason we are so gunshy in the market is precisely because the club can probably only spend what it is capable of borrowing or generating naturally, my big hope is that PSR continues to affect the way clubs are capable of doing business because if it does then we do represent probably the single most attractive investment opportunity in England at the moment, especially if our fortunes continue to trend downwards and a billion or two gets knocked off that £3.5bn valuation ENIC and Levy have slapped on the club.
Looked good for England in the U21s. TBF, a lot of the team did.
Big clubs see the gap then monitor it
I think genuinely we could make a case for the worst owners in the league.
The list of mistakes missed opportunities they made made over the years in maddening. And now them are seemingly refusing to spend on proven talent to solely focus on young lower wage potential with high sell on. Whilst also charging top 3 in the world prices and but refusing to invest the same.

Didn't sound like he was gearing up for a sale while getting blow jobbed be Gary Neville the other day.
Dildo bros and ENIC
Two worst in the league by a country mile
West Ham take some beating tbf, at least we don't need binoculars to see the close side of the pitch
I just want to say that I do not always bring my best self to this forum. We are all spurs fans here.
If we don’t bring in one or two more FIRST TEAM players then we have not done enough and it will be a bs window.
It’s not true that Levy said we would win the league and CL this season. That’s disingenuous. However he did say we need to compete and at the moment the squad is short of quality to compete on four fronts.
Massive three weeks ahead.

It's a bit of a weird one because a LOT of PL clubs (and the championship clubs that have been and gone in between) have come under new ownership in the last 5 years, if you were to judge ENIC in a vacuum based on their whole term as Tottenham owners you would have to say they have held the club's health in high regard and even now with us faltering for some time, we are not in any financial danger, however when you measure them against other owners in the league who have been around a while (FSG, Kroenke, Mansour) their achievements utterly pale in comparison. If you ask "who is the worst run PL club since 2020" it's very much a two-horse race between ourselves and United, and were you to judge that over the entire decade (20-30), who would bet against United getting their shit together much more than us under INEOS?
He didn't need to say that at all. He did not need to intensify pressure on the club by specifically mentioning winning the PL and CL, simply outlining that we seek to build towards being competitive in top level competition again over the next few years would have sufficed, it is not the fault of Spurs fans that our owner is drunk on his own ego and decided to pair a completely fanciful statement with a completely inadequate window to even show signs that winning those competitions is part of a 15 year plan, much less a 3 year or 5 year one.
Even if we did bring in 2 more first team players, can we say we've done as much as Liverpool? City? Woolwich? Supposedly these are teams we have ambitions of catching up to, all of whom finished in the top 4 and all of whom have improved their already very good sides substantially more than we are likely to improve our very average one.

We are in an incredibly precarious position and it really didn't need to be like this

It can't be any worse than it is right now. Unfortunately Grealish is an improvement on all our attacking players bar Kudus. That's the mess we are on right now
That is quite good, actually.(Transfer) Windows In Your Mind
Romano is reporting
Our interest is real
But no spending only mulling,
An imaginary deal
Sending feelers to an agent
Or an extended loan
How about amortized payments
No one's answering the phone
But the clock is always ticking
No more homegrown space
Maybe a deadline day signing?
A big striker we can chase
Like the signings that you find
In the windows in your mind...
Unlike the doomed guy's
Welcome to the hotel Tottenham Hotspur,
We've got NFL, we've got NFL,
And concert tickets to sell
Plenty of room at the hotel Tottenham Hotspur,
We don't really want to invest, want to invest,
In the team you love best.
