More attacking than we think..

Well....is this lot all we've got?......

Richarlison .... never produced his value so far
Odobert .... never heard of him.
Johnson...... been good some of the time.
Moore ...... who the hell is he?
Werner ..... YUP, tries hard, can't shoot
Lankshear .... An olde English name with talent to fit?

Son is now 32. He can't go on for ever

Sorry pal....I'm not impressed. Levy didn't get us anyone of proven value. We'll see in the first 4 games what we're in for...a good season or a bad one. The latter I think.

More proof you don’t actually watch Tottenham Ted - our brightest talent in years who has lit up pre season and you have never heard of him.

I might be more like you Ted and start commenting on water polo sites - I mean I know sweet FA about it but that doesn’t stop you does it fella

Crazy money levis been spending last 5 years must be pushing 1billion? With like 700m net ?

We’ve sold plenty, including a generational talent in Kane.

We have the most FFP/PSR headroom in the league still, so it can be argued we could spend even more.

What often gets missed is the biggest expense of them all, wages. We have the best wages to turnover ratio in the league for years now and we have improved that further over the last 12 months by getting rid of virtually all our big earners - Lloris, Dier, Ndombele, Kane, PEH and replacing with younger players earning a third of that amount.

Credit where it is due, Levy is strong on the finance side

Time will tell for sure but many said the same about our backline and going back further Berbatov and Modric. It's just we have social media now so more people can voice their opinions.

Solanke and Richarlison are solid CF options. I'm liking the competition for places. Put in a poor 45 mins and you could get subbed at half time. Something we didn't have last year.

I hope he does and I hope he doesn't keep Kulu on for as much as he was last season if he's not performing.

Looking forward to seeing what Odobert can do.

I mean Solanke scored 19 for Bournemouth last season - if that’s not “proven value” then I don’t know what is anymore. Sure we may have over paid - but that’s just the market at the moment - we’re getting £20m for faaacking Skipp - mental.

Odobert - 3 goals and 2 assists in 29 Prem games at the age of 18 in a terrible Burnley side - players that have proven far less have gone for much more

The addition of an actual proper centre forward is a huge addition.

I would expect Lankshear to leave on loan. Big Ange does not blood youngsters unless somebody else has. The same reason Donley has gone on an unsuitable loan to Orient.

The issue is only 1 of all of those players is top class and he's about to decline.

Relying on 1 or 2 of them going up another level or two.

Solanke scored 19 last year, BJ had 15 goal involvements, Son is presumably the top drawer player. Kulu is better than people think and Maddison will hopefully turn up.

Will we challenge for the league - no I don’t think so. Are we good enough to challenge for a CL spot and win a cup - yes absolutely.

The real story though is we’re trying to maintain our current level until this potentially golden generation are ready - Moore, Bergvall, Lankshear, Gray, Devine, Donley, Phillips

I guess you did not see Richarlison's great contribution today?
Call that a "solid CF option" do you?
Yes I watch the games, like today !
