There is no way he doesn’t have a say.
You think levy would’ve spent £55m-£65m on Ndombele when he could’ve got Tielemans for £40m
Or you think he would be trying to get Lo Celso for £50m when he could’ve got Ziyech for £25m
No way he would’ve gone for the cheaper players of it was up to him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sssssshhhhhhh, don is throwing a tantrum, don't disturb him with logic.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
YOU keep saying I’m throwing tantrums, yet you completely agree with me that this window has been an absolute joke. Make up your mind mate.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
no, the fullback situation is a joke, its been an OK window with potential to be a very good window if we act right in the last couple of weeks.
I am currently on Levy's back re lack of further additions, but i will wait to see the window and judge it in its entirety.
as i said on another post the other day, i saw the aim for this window as three things
1. to add quality to the first 11, thereby improving the squad
2. to not lose any key players
3. to shift deadwood
2 is currently the case, and 1 and 3 has happened so far to some degree, with more work needed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why not be on his back about leaving things late again, regardless of whether we make these further additions or not? It's unacceptable to constantly leave the manager waiting to have a settled squad right before the season starts or even after it started as was the case when the deadline closed 3 games into the season.
the whole issue is not whether Poch is a nelly or not but why arent the club(whoever it is) supporting him, its plainly obvious that the playing staff needs investment if and I say if again that the club is interested in challanging for top honours, Titles because the way Levy operates it just aint gonna happen in my life time.
I don't quite know what part of "Head Coach" people aren't grasping.
Was it not obvious that if that's his title, he isn't in charge of transfers.
Everyone knows my views, I’m not going to change them. I have said for years that I don’t think Levy backs the managers enough to mount a serious challenge in anything, hence why we have won 1 trophy in 20 years under his regime. That’s all the proof I need.
He balances the books well and is a great business man no doubt about it, but I don’t think he’s serious about taking Spurs to the next level, or atleast I don’t think he’s willing to budge and get with the times.
He still thinks it’s 20 years ago where we can lowball clubs for our targets and expect to prize them away for cheap on deadline day. Very frustrating to watch year on year out, when we are so close to success. I have said this before and I’ll say it again, we will regret not funding the playing squad properly because when this team eventually breaks up, we will have to start all over again.
It will be the best team to never win anything because again I don’t think we are equipped to win anything this season. Another season of zero trophies because the squad hasn’t been strengthened. If the squad was strengthened sufficiently and Poch failed, then fair play the blame is on the manager. Our chairman doesn’t back our manager properly, so the blame is purely down to him not getting in the aquirred targets. Same sh**, different window.

What you said doesn't specify the issue of timing does it? It's just further additions. We could get them all on the last day of the transfer window but that would still be poorly organised to have left it so late.

BUT we don’t compete because we don’t win them mate. We are no better off in the trophy department then we were 20 years ago. Give me 4 Fa cups in a row over 4 CL final losses any day of the week. Do you disagree with this statement ?
It’s all about success mate. City and Chelsea have grown to become what they are purely down to winning trophies. Liverpool are going to benefit hugely winning the CL last season. Success breeds success and currently Spurs don’t succeed in anything. With the required funds and strengthening of playing squad, this would happen. The current regime don’t allow this to happen. Like I said, give me 4 Fa cups in a row over 4 CL final losses anytime. If anyone disagrees with that, then that’s about as much losers mentality as one can get.

this could be our last CL season if we dont invest in the playing staff side of the buisness empire he has created , I believe it is that serious, we diced with 4th place last season this year will be harder.

Its the way of the world.
Look at United, Arsenal, also struggling to get players in, largely because selling clubs are asking way too much. Maguire for £90m Lo Celso for £70m Zaha for £80m .
Time will tell if these clubs will actually sell but they are within their rights to ask whatever the hell they like, and buyers are within their rights to value the player differently. May be time will see these positions soften. In the case of Lo Celso i certainly think it will because the reported £55m we've offered is a massive £30m increase in price since Betis bought him 1 year ago, no one else is really in the market for him and they cannot afford to pass up that money. Have to hold your nerve, they risk getting a lot less for him in the future.

100%, we were so lucky to get 4th last year. Nearly messed that up. Our CL campaign was great, but it totally papered over the cracks in what was a real topsy turvy season. 18 losses in a season was diabolical. The squad isn’t good enough and it hasn’t been rectified once again.

We know full well that this has been something that's gone at Spurs for years. So much last minute business to be done. It's clearl Levy's style is to play the waiting game. Some of that has to be down to his negotiating tactics and some is to do with WTF knows.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Our lack of trophies is down to more than the squad. Wigan and Portsmouth have managed it. Our last trophy was won with one of our worst managers and when our squad in a mess. We're a top 4 club consistently now and are good enough to (and have) beat anyone on their day. You cannot tell me Levy didnt give Redknapp enough quality in depth to win a cup, we had 3 or 4 strikers at times, Ledley, Modric, Bale, Lennon, VDV.
It goes deeper. Poch likes his 'compact squad' but this bites him because we dont have the massive squads of the likes of City who can hoover up the domestic trophies with their B team a lot of the time.

No squad is going to be deep enough when you have some of the injuries we had last season.
IMO we need to replace Llorente, add 1 to CM and replace Trippier. So actually only 1 extra player.
To me it boils down to the quality and this boils down to price and we arent made of money. That is why we have to negotiate in the way we do because we cannot afford to just pay ridiculous asking prices.
If Poch leaves you are facked
When Rednapp leaves you guys are facked
When Bale leaves you guys are....
And so on...
Heard it all before. In fact we got better.
The window is not closed yet and it could still be a good one. We surely didn’t expect to fix the squad issue in one window with the state of the current market. Even the bigger boys with deep pockets are struggling . If we get another big game player in i.e. Lo Celso then for me it won’t be a bad window. The fullbacks are an issue but apart from Tripps leaving we haven’t been able to shift anyone. So do we overload the squad in those areas?
We get Lo Celso in then not a bad window for me. We get rid of Aurier and bring in a decent right back then that would constitute a great window.
Just not possible with FFP and the state of the market to fix all the squad problems.
I Am sure Levy is trying is best behind the scenes so am not giving up hope yet

We have some very good players and an excellent manager and that's why we overachieved last season in the way that we did. So it's a good season when you look at it like that, but aren't we past the stage now when we look at just making top 4 as a good season? We've got to various finals and semi finals and we don't win anything still. A lot of that comes down to not showing the ambition in the transfer window to make it that much better to win the things. So it's no point including not spending anything as a reason when that was part of the problem.

This. People saying “ but we spent no money” , well yeh obviously and that’s our issue. The manager is not been given the required backing to push on. We got to the CL final last season with no help from our heirarchy. They signed nobody. This season it almost feels like want another season of doing it all on budget. For all the excitement over NDombele, we have actually only spent about 20 million this window we have sold Trippier for 23 mil, Jansen for about 7 mil, so we have already recouped half the NDombele money. Once again, a window of no net spend to please the directors, sick of it.

But reality is we weren’t mate. If we would of won the CL, it wouldn’t of been because we are a better side than Liverpool dude. Everyone can see clearly Liverpool are miles ahead of us. Had we won the CL, it would of been because we turned up on the day. Spurs would of still needed to strengthen wether we won the CL or not. The fact that we won nothing once again just adds to the frustration of it all.

Or you think he would be trying to get Lo Celso for £50m when he could’ve got Ziyech for £25m
No way he would’ve gone for the cheaper players of it was up to him.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
no, the fullback situation is a joke, its been an OK window with potential to be a very good window if we act right in the last couple of weeks.
I am currently on Levy's back re lack of further additions, but i will wait to see the window and judge it in its entirety.
as i said on another post the other day, i saw the aim for this window as three things
1. to add quality to the first 11, thereby improving the squad
2. to not lose any key players
3. to shift deadwood
2 is currently the case, and 1 and 3 has happened so far to some degree, with more work needed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why not be on his back about leaving things late again, regardless of whether we make these further additions or not? It's unacceptable to constantly leave the manager waiting to have a settled squad right before the season starts or even after it started as was the case when the deadline closed 3 games into the season.

the whole issue is not whether Poch is a nelly or not but why arent the club(whoever it is) supporting him, its plainly obvious that the playing staff needs investment if and I say if again that the club is interested in challanging for top honours, Titles because the way Levy operates it just aint gonna happen in my life time.

I don't quite know what part of "Head Coach" people aren't grasping.
Was it not obvious that if that's his title, he isn't in charge of transfers.

Everyone knows my views, I’m not going to change them. I have said for years that I don’t think Levy backs the managers enough to mount a serious challenge in anything, hence why we have won 1 trophy in 20 years under his regime. That’s all the proof I need.
He balances the books well and is a great business man no doubt about it, but I don’t think he’s serious about taking Spurs to the next level, or atleast I don’t think he’s willing to budge and get with the times.
He still thinks it’s 20 years ago where we can lowball clubs for our targets and expect to prize them away for cheap on deadline day. Very frustrating to watch year on year out, when we are so close to success. I have said this before and I’ll say it again, we will regret not funding the playing squad properly because when this team eventually breaks up, we will have to start all over again.
It will be the best team to never win anything because again I don’t think we are equipped to win anything this season. Another season of zero trophies because the squad hasn’t been strengthened. If the squad was strengthened sufficiently and Poch failed, then fair play the blame is on the manager. Our chairman doesn’t back our manager properly, so the blame is purely down to him not getting in the aquirred targets. Same sh**, different window.

What you said doesn't specify the issue of timing does it? It's just further additions. We could get them all on the last day of the transfer window but that would still be poorly organised to have left it so late.

BUT we don’t compete because we don’t win them mate. We are no better off in the trophy department then we were 20 years ago. Give me 4 Fa cups in a row over 4 CL final losses any day of the week. Do you disagree with this statement ?
It’s all about success mate. City and Chelsea have grown to become what they are purely down to winning trophies. Liverpool are going to benefit hugely winning the CL last season. Success breeds success and currently Spurs don’t succeed in anything. With the required funds and strengthening of playing squad, this would happen. The current regime don’t allow this to happen. Like I said, give me 4 Fa cups in a row over 4 CL final losses anytime. If anyone disagrees with that, then that’s about as much losers mentality as one can get.

Its the way of the world.
Look at United, Arsenal, also struggling to get players in, largely because selling clubs are asking way too much. Maguire for £90m Lo Celso for £70m Zaha for £80m .
Time will tell if these clubs will actually sell but they are within their rights to ask whatever the hell they like, and buyers are within their rights to value the player differently. May be time will see these positions soften. In the case of Lo Celso i certainly think it will because the reported £55m we've offered is a massive £30m increase in price since Betis bought him 1 year ago, no one else is really in the market for him and they cannot afford to pass up that money. Have to hold your nerve, they risk getting a lot less for him in the future.

100%, we were so lucky to get 4th last year. Nearly messed that up. Our CL campaign was great, but it totally papered over the cracks in what was a real topsy turvy season. 18 losses in a season was diabolical. The squad isn’t good enough and it hasn’t been rectified once again.

We know full well that this has been something that's gone at Spurs for years. So much last minute business to be done. It's clearl Levy's style is to play the waiting game. Some of that has to be down to his negotiating tactics and some is to do with WTF knows.

Our lack of trophies is down to more than the squad. Wigan and Portsmouth have managed it. Our last trophy was won with one of our worst managers and when our squad in a mess. We're a top 4 club consistently now and are good enough to (and have) beat anyone on their day. You cannot tell me Levy didnt give Redknapp enough quality in depth to win a cup, we had 3 or 4 strikers at times, Ledley, Modric, Bale, Lennon, VDV.
It goes deeper. Poch likes his 'compact squad' but this bites him because we dont have the massive squads of the likes of City who can hoover up the domestic trophies with their B team a lot of the time.

No squad is going to be deep enough when you have some of the injuries we had last season.
IMO we need to replace Llorente, add 1 to CM and replace Trippier. So actually only 1 extra player.
To me it boils down to the quality and this boils down to price and we arent made of money. That is why we have to negotiate in the way we do because we cannot afford to just pay ridiculous asking prices.
posted on 31/7/19
If Poch leaves you are facked
When Rednapp leaves you guys are facked
When Bale leaves you guys are....
And so on...
Heard it all before. In fact we got better.
The window is not closed yet and it could still be a good one. We surely didn’t expect to fix the squad issue in one window with the state of the current market. Even the bigger boys with deep pockets are struggling . If we get another big game player in i.e. Lo Celso then for me it won’t be a bad window. The fullbacks are an issue but apart from Tripps leaving we haven’t been able to shift anyone. So do we overload the squad in those areas?
We get Lo Celso in then not a bad window for me. We get rid of Aurier and bring in a decent right back then that would constitute a great window.
Just not possible with FFP and the state of the market to fix all the squad problems.
I Am sure Levy is trying is best behind the scenes so am not giving up hope yet

We have some very good players and an excellent manager and that's why we overachieved last season in the way that we did. So it's a good season when you look at it like that, but aren't we past the stage now when we look at just making top 4 as a good season? We've got to various finals and semi finals and we don't win anything still. A lot of that comes down to not showing the ambition in the transfer window to make it that much better to win the things. So it's no point including not spending anything as a reason when that was part of the problem.

This. People saying “ but we spent no money” , well yeh obviously and that’s our issue. The manager is not been given the required backing to push on. We got to the CL final last season with no help from our heirarchy. They signed nobody. This season it almost feels like want another season of doing it all on budget. For all the excitement over NDombele, we have actually only spent about 20 million this window we have sold Trippier for 23 mil, Jansen for about 7 mil, so we have already recouped half the NDombele money. Once again, a window of no net spend to please the directors, sick of it.

But reality is we weren’t mate. If we would of won the CL, it wouldn’t of been because we are a better side than Liverpool dude. Everyone can see clearly Liverpool are miles ahead of us. Had we won the CL, it would of been because we turned up on the day. Spurs would of still needed to strengthen wether we won the CL or not. The fact that we won nothing once again just adds to the frustration of it all.
