Lmfao iv supported spurs all my life kid. Whole families from there. I have a letter from Martin jol himself from when I was a little shit bag kid writing to him stirring the pot spouting bollocks about how Defoe needs benching.

Where's your Martin jol letter bruv
 
It's hard to say some of these players are lost under Jose when they were lost under Poch too.

Sissoko was shit then, and he's shit now, that isn't changing.
 
Personally I would say kane, son, ndombele, alli, Reguillon, Alderweireld, and loris should stay and all of the rest are bang average at best.. for me thus is nothing new i hav been saying yhix for z while...Mourinho needs to go as does the board , whose the real ones responsible for this shit show ..

A lot of people unwilling to consider selling Kane and Son...but oh how we laughed and laughed when the dippers sold Suarez and Coutinho....

If we had a proper manager and/or DOF I would be willing to listen to these kinds of talks, Liverpool got away with it because they had proper football people in place with a good plan on how to move forward without the players and with the money,

The other problem/difference is that Coutinho and Suarez both had issues that neither Kane nor Son have so that made it much easier to sell them versus our duo.

But so long as Jose is here and it is him/Levy/Hitchens making the plans I have zero interest in moving Kane or Son and letting those 3 knuckleheads direct where the money should go.

I suppose if you don't trust those in place to spend the Kane/Son money, there's little reason to believe they can effectively spend what money we have to surround them with a better team either.

I agree we need to overhaul recruitment, no matter who the manager is. We were really good at buy low/sell high...but we've been really shit at the next level.

Yes I would like to get in a new manager and potentially a new DOF as well depending on the manager we bring in overall, but especially if we are doing a major move like moving one of or both of Kane/Son.

Right now they are likely only going to do minimal damage that we can survive, selling Kane and Son and fucking that up could mean years without CL football.

I’m getting mixed messages all the time, one week it’s tactics and the next it’s two thirds of the squad being rubbish that’s the problem.

Well, its both really. The squad are too old to keep the ball and make movements to dominate possession. So Jose instead has them give up the ball and stay in a disciplined defensive shape, hoping to capitalise on errors.

The same tactics that teams battling relegation often adopt.
 
The bigger worry is that even if we manage to shift most of this in the current climate what's the quality of the replacements going to be like?

I mean somebody at the club thought a 29 year old Doherty was a good idea.

He has no re-sale value and is at best mid table levels of ability.

The cycle of this team is done. It's sad but for the long term, we should sell Son & Kane and use the profit toward rebuilding....with young, potential players for the new start of the cycle. I believe it's going to be a win-win for all.

the number of dislikes tells me just how shit scared fans are of losing players, and its the same reason why nostalgia kicks in and they hope washed guys like Jose, Bale, Eriksen can all summon up one last run.

New players enter this sport all the time, it's up for our scouts to recruit them and our coaches to develop them.

Leicester lost Mahrez, Kante and sold Maguire and Chilwell and are doing just fine and have a lot to look forward to.
 
Winks

Sissoko

Aurier

Docherty

Sanchez

Moura

Lamela

Are all on ASAP fuck them off list

Eveyone else bar Kane Son Hojberg Ndombele also isn't safe over the next two years.

Apart from Kane who has dragged us for years, Son, Ndombele who is techically gifted, Toby and a few others, this squad is bang average. There's so much deadwood at this club that are simply average and aren't good enough for a club trying to reach top 4 and beyond.

Lamela needs to go
Sissoko needs to go
Winks needs to go
Dier needs to go
Sanchez needs to go
Lo celso needs to go
Moura needs to go
Davies needs to go
Aurier needs to go

I did forget dele. To be honest I would still retain him purely because he's a raw talent and the quality is there, its just unfortunately he is too busy shagging high end escorts to care about football. Such a waste of a life eh?

Nobody is buying these players with COVID destroying teams financially.

We don't need to sell for big money.

Olise, as an example, reportedly has a 8 million release clause. It is unrealistic to think we could get something similar for Lamela or Moura. There we upgrade their position and get much younger.

Dier plays for England surely we can get something decent for him. Winks is English, we hear all about HG issues, surely someone will give us something decent. Dele as well.

Personally I am tired of being disappointed by having older players that have been here too long constantly disappoint with how poor they are, would be nice to switch it up and bring in some young guys to disappoint us for a change. Shouldn't be too expensive to bring so of them in to replace the meh we already have.
