Levy is actually very good at everything apart from the footballGreat interview that from Ricky Sacks - we need bald bollocks out of the club yesterday, he is an embarrassment and a disgrace - and also, let’s be honest, a complete cunt of the highest order.
Palinha's first competitive match for us, 72 mins v possibly the best club side in the world, during which time we had the better of them. His shot came off the bar for VDV's goal, 1-0.
I fear what happened in the minutes after he said that , although I’m assuming that’s the joke , at least I hope it is .Nothing is so bad that it cannot get worse - as my old scout leader used to say
So, you're apologising for Levy then?I’m no apologist for levy so I do think it is unfair that the media are portraying this as a fuck up from spurs. ( unless we lowballed)
If he really wanted to join the deal would have been done and he would have done his medical. We should not have to beg players to come here. This was never close to being done so perhaps palace and eze played us and strung us along.it would be nice if we came out and state what was and was not agreed.
Oh look, it's WVJ who thinks Palhinha is this seasons Ballon d'Or winner. Frank is prime Mourinho and Levy is a demi god... Sorry, not got time for you today... I'm busy doing nothing.Palinha's first competitive match for us, 72 mins v possibly the best club side in the world, during which time we had the better of them.

Maybe Franky Boy was resting him v Burnley for another massive test at a revived Pep City?
Are you a WUM by any chance?
By all accounts, Spurs had their pants pulled down here. Eze and his agent used Spurs to negotiate the package and then informed Woolwich to match it. It was Woolwich all along and Spurs now look like absolute mugs, especially after the MGW fiasco.
Terrible situation for Spurs. Need home grown players and will now likely overpay for yet another mid level talent. Morgan Rogers or Harvey Elliot anyone?
No clubs want to deal with Spurs. And 1 man is responsible for that.
No MGW, no Savinho, Maddison out for the entire season, almost 40 million on Tel, the Eze disaster meaning anyone we go for now costs an extra ten million just for the laughs. It’s August 21st and Bissouma, Gil, Solomon are still here — not even a whisper of interest. This transfer window? Absolute masterpiece. I feel sick.
Levy’s football strategy of high fees and low wages is absolute suicide. We have spent so much money on mediocre players, we’d have been better off signing half the number of players and spending double on the wages. We’d have got far more quality.
How many world class players do we have to show for that €878m that’s been spent in the last 5 years?

Gibbs-White contract - 28 days ago
Maddison injury - 17 days ago
Havertz injury - 1 day ago?
