Can’t disagree with any of that. Still think we need a striker though and the board will have to spend that Kane money someday .

couldn't believe our link to him this morning, but glad this has turned into a done deal so quickly, unlike us!

Yeah... would be nice but unlike Jose or Conte, Ange isn't the kind of manager that rellies on one or two world class players .... The fact he took the job knowing kane wanted out says it all... it's a bigger picture approach... Get good attacking players in a progressive attacking team and get on the front foot !!!

The most refreshing thing about Spurs this year, much like the way Klopp and Pep do things is that they are not scared to lose, trying to win !!! .... Thats a team ethos rather than being a one man team

Well we did buy VDV, Maddison, Johnson, Vicario, Veliz and Phillips for somewhere north of what we got for Kane. Plus we made Kulu’s loan move permanent.

Na not really. Always liked timo. What we do is not related at all. I still think we have better players now if they’re all fit.

Better than anything anyone at Spurs have managed !!!! At this point beggars can't be choosers ... i'm happy with ange and the way spurs are doing things so if Werner is his pick for a low risk, decent short term upside signing... i'm cool with it

And Porro (and Solomon).
Interesting to compare that lot to the Bale 7:

Van der Ven
Porro
Maddison
Vicario
Kulusevski
Johnson
Solomon
Phillips
Veliz
(c£235m 2023 prices)
Kane -£86m

v

Eriksen
Chadli
Lamela
Capoue
Soldado
Paulinho
Chiriches
£106m (2013 prices) (c£140m 2023 prices)
Bale -£90m (c£120m 2023 prices)

I love Palmer (he's a proper player) the rest of the billion odd quid you've pi55ed away will come back to bite ya.... no motivation for a ton of overvalued kids on massive money on long guaranteed contracts.... good luck to ya but it's gonna get worse before it gets better... Poch ain't the guy for a "frankenstein" project like chelsea ... he needs guys with something to prove .... you've just brought down the age of the "foreign mercenary"

I'd rather have Werner in the team than Mudryk

At this point... Chelsea are irrelevant and the fact werner played for them means nothing... they might be back challenging for european football in a couple of years.... until then they are about as relevant as Fulham and Palace

posted on 6/1/24

So..... what about Drăgusin?
Romero out, VDV out, Udogie playing somewhere, we'll be left with Emerson and Davies!
Oh yes AND Porro

I think we'll sign Dragusin, VDV will be back for United, Romero and madders back shortly after that. Once we get Biss, Sarr and Sonny back from intl duty we'll be in great shape.... I think Spurs have the 3rd best squad in the PL after City and liverpool.... I think we'll finish 3rd and win the FA cup

Why? Mudryk been really good this year. Both cost the same yet Mudryk despite playing as a winger has a better g/a ratio. And is younger

Hmm if we beat Boro we will be in another cup final. Can’t remember the last time Fulham or palace were. Or spurs even

I reckon we've had a net spend on players of £280m in the last 3 years.

Last 5 years I think chelsea spent about 200m more than spurs off top of my head

Both cost the same

How do you figure that? Seems like you paid a ton of money for Mudryk and we're getting Werner free for 6 months

posted on 7/1/24

Yeah chelsea 673 and spurs 476m over last 5
