Amazed Leeds managed to get any of these players over Madrid or Scouse.

All of them would look good on a triple word score on a Scrabble board, but not for a team aspiring to do anything more but survive a Premier League season.,

Not sure what your point is , I listed the signings and outgoings of all twenty clubs, I mentioned Leeds as they had just completed another signing . Are you saying transfers are this incredibly complex negotiation , because it’s looking like several hundred will get completed in one form or another this window .

As I said it’s bollocks to make out it is such a difficult process , of course there will be exceptions but it is not the norm .

"Last 5 Years Net Spend" is a perfectly reasonable metric to throw around, but it creates a deceptive picture for Spurs, who exactly five years ago were a disgraceful catastrophe of a squad as a result of 5-7 years of colossal transfer underinvestment prior to that.

Which both necessitated huge spending just put a team together that could survive the loss of prime Kane and Son, and which had absolutely zero other value to sell and balance the books.

And the full picture of our squad spending relative to our revenues has been well behind our competitors at every stage.

We do not spend enough to win, because we have confiscatory ownership ideologically dedicated to underinvestment. Period.

I agree. But even worse than the amount spent is the Crap they spent the lesser amount on.

We could have signed all of those players in a lunch time.

Wasn't one of them on a free or unsigned.

Savinho-Son-comparison.jpg


Is he all that good really? I can't ever remember seeing him play, so couldn't say but those numbers don't look all that to me.

I would take lookman now while not exciting like savinho he's available and let's be honest he's a different player to the one who was in the league before 15 goals last season can play cam lw and st so covers positions because if we get an injury whether its solanke Johnson kudus etc we need numbers. I would take him and savinho but savinho looks more and more blurry every day that goes. I would look at kang in too
