Small squads are the new fad
im quite concerned that we have got rid of bentaleb and no replacement seems on the way.
also don't understand the chadli sale.
my bigger concern though is that half of our first team don't seem to have realised that the season has started yet, and poch is making ridiculous subs.
Last time I checked we are not even being linked with anyone. I think we've blown a really good opportunity to challenge. If we have a couple of injuries, finish 6th and no cup (of any kind) I'll be pi55ed

Im sure the N'Koudou - N'Jie swap and Lopez deals will be done and after that we need 1 hopefully 2 - An attacking midfielder and CM.
If not we will be heavily relying on Winks and Onomah. As talented as they are we will be our squad will be exposed big time.
Im sure the club know this and have deals lined up.

I'm sure you are right...but Zaha and an unknown French guy. Are they any better than Lennon and Townsend, or Chadli. God knows!
Isco smacks of one of those 'oh so close, nearly but not quite' late deals that doesnt happen.

yeah I agree, also don't want panic buys or dross like zaha
I'm not really worried. You guys have always pride yourselves in blooding the youngsters.
And the money guys have to look after that side of the business too.
So in a way, Spurs are really geared up for the season ahead at least financially.
I'm not particularly worried but I wish Poch weren't so stubborn & would give players like Son some time on the field.
I'm not worried now as I don't think we will get top 4 tbh.

I agree that he should have come on instead of Onomah on the weekend.
he could have interchanged with Lamela to good effect
I think we need more than 2 players.
We have a strong first XI. Bench options are currently Janssen, Wimmer, Wanyama, Nkoudou/Njie, Son.
Any injuries or loss of form and our options then become youth players.
We will need to rotate with the Champions League, we cannot afford to grind our first XI in to the ground like last season. We need credible back up. I think it is clear that we miss Dembele massively (he rarely plays 2 games a week anyway), need back up for Eriksen and Alli and require pace.
I'd say we need 2 players in addition to Nkoudou replacing Njie, but if others go, like Son, then they need replacing.

davies and trippier too.
also wanyama needs to play ahead of Dier, who has been abysmal so far.
Bentaleb badly needs replacing though
I think players like Dele, Kane, Dier etc have got a bit carried away with their own hype - add that to the abysmal Lamela - and we start to look really average.
Wanyama has been very impressive though.
I'm worried.
Worried that Poch and Levy have been busy all summer patting each other on a job well done, so much so that they've deluded themselves into thinking all our youths will make the same impact as Alli did so that signings aren't necessary.

the abysmal lamela with a goal and two assist in three games, and has been by far our most productive player so far?
you plank chicken
Chronic don't indulge him, he's still upset that Townsend left, got relegated and then got nutmegged by Lamela. All the while he's still shooting his load over his Townsend posters on his ceiling and wall

I dont think that Dier & Wanyama is a CM combo that we want to have too often. It effectively puts Dier in the more creative role, which is not his forte, he's a converted centre back ffs,
We have plenty of defensive cover, its the key attacking players that we need options for. When Dembele Eriksen or Alli are missing or playing sheite what options do we have?
