This is a worrying quote from poch as goes against everything he's said all summer
#thfc Pochettino: "Maybe today they have a bit of an advantage - they're ahead of us because they sign and they keep the players they want."

Well I doubt he ever really wanted to sell Walker. You don't just want to give up players who have played great for you. Why would you?

Well it's goes against what the club wants us to believe.
New RB quickly is needed
Pay the wages or spurs will get raided summer after summer now. Simple.
Poch just says what Levy wants him to say most of the window. Only with that quote he appears to have broken character.
I still think Trippier can do well but he's always going to lack that pace that Walker has that brought something to our game.
You can't get away paying your best players £70k pw when the bigger teams will pay the same player double. Isn't lingaard on £100k pw which is probably more than just about all yours.

How about a winning club since you may have a different definition of bigger club than most others

I think it's about time Levy gets his cheque book out and starts getting in some reinforcements before we fall right behind everyone. No I am not judging this just by the friendly loss last night, I have this stance with Levy every summer. We need to improve the squad and city proved last night, when you get your signings in early you can integrate them into the team and that is why they look much more prepared than we do. Levy on the other hand waits, ponders and dithers the whole way through the transfer window and for what ? A desperate 30 mil bid for Sissoko on deadline day
Pochettino comments to me just goes to show he was talking bulls** last week when he said we were happy with the squad. This Spurs squad are not good enough to compete in both the league and CL. It doesn't take a pre season friendly to see this.
The lack of pace in our squad is a worry, and selling Walker has only diminished that further.
Hopefully it is an area where we look to strengthen because we look quite leaden boots at both ends of the pitch
We got beaten twice by Juve and Atleti last season, and beat Inter.
We got beaten twice by City and Roma this season, and beat PSG.
What can we draw from this?
Not an awful lot.
We are missing a few key players through injury.
We are not at peak fitness.
They are pre season games which have nothing riding on them.
A good pre season means diddly squat - see the Bent-inspired, all-conquering Ramos 2008 pre-season for reference.
Real Madrid have just lost to Barca, been humped for 4 by City, and lost on penalties to a side who are regularly outside the PL top 4 these days.
European and Spanish champions Real Madrid that is
