OK so your happy being 17th if the club don't win the league.
No wonder you think the squad is so great if that's your expectation because we ain't winning no league.
We're as bad as Crystal Palace except the trophy they won was against better teams, I wonder if there's someone on their forum listing the squad saying how good it is, and they don't want to be 2nd, they're equally as happy being 17th.
Crumbs.
Just one flaw: if we keep finishing low down the table, we won't be in any European competitions.
Stand outside the ground at the next match with a bundle of forms and see how things go ,I wish you luck .Anyone ready to sign the Levy apology form yet, or are you still catching up?![]()
17th or 2nd.You still lost. Better to finish 17th and lift a trophy, than 2nd and lift nothing.
Winning the champions league is now this seasons aim.
Not been in this thread today as clearly from what I was picking up elsewhere, no point as nothing was happening. Yes January window is difficult and apart from MC very little business done. However we are very short on numbers and I can only think the hierarchy have written off this season, thinking they have enough to escape relegation but not enough to win CL or qualify next season. Whether Frank lasts the season is debatable.
Next season we will have our long term injuries back and we have a couple of Loanees that should be in the squad and with no Europe keeping the squad happy will be the main problem rather than having 11 fit players. In the Transfer market we must go for quality and not quantity and anyone bought must be an automatic first choice. Changing the GK and a forward that scores lots of goals being the highest priorities.
And Poch !!
Would we really have not been able to afford Gallagher unless we sold Johnson? What's been happening to all those huge revenues that have been reported then???After 25 years of Levy, do some of you honestly think this window would have been any different if he was still in charge? If anything, he would have demanded £50m for Johnson and we'd have missed out on Gallagher as a result.
I have signed Daniel’s prescription , you can now be Daniel’s personal suppository for life . No need for renewal just lube up and up there you go .Anyone ready to sign the Levy apology form yet, or are you still catching up?![]()
Fuck off trollDid you forget about the experienced ex Chelsea captain that we signed?
The squad is full. Spurs cannot add foreign players. There was possibility of 2 home grown spots only, but who is going to join without an assurance of playing in Champs League?
The only candidate to be sold in this window was Bissouma, but he is probably more useful playing for us than gambling on a replacement.
Gallagher, Dragusin go into champions league squad. Tough call on Tel vs Bissouma.
Of course, Sterling is still an option as he is a free agent and, fits the home grown list. At this stage in his career, is he more useful than a hungry, keen to impress Tel?
Overall, Spurs have had 2 very good transfer windows now and are building a very very good young squad.
3/10 window for me:
- 1pt. Selling Brennan
- 1pt. Signing Gallagher (who my dog could have identified, great process Lange & team)
- Bonus point For breaking the 700 page threshold on here you wonderful bunch of miscreants.

because we're increasingly dicing with relegation which would be a huge problem. The drop off in financials wouldn't stop the money coming in but it would decrease it significantly. The costs of the stadium aren't going to go away. The TV revenue plummets, and the wages suddenly leap up in the % of turnover to outgoings....glancing at Wolves who seem to have relied on the method of selling without reinvesting on the premise they'll do just enough to stay up has finally come home to roost, and we're not immune to that scenario playing out. It's that arrogance from ENIC that has seen this club go from CL finalists to a long running joke.they are printing money and it has nothing to do with football. why would they invest or sell?
were they related events?So Spurs have effectively done a dry Ianuary. Last time I did dry January I still had a sore arse in March.
