YepAre you talking an injured GLC and an unfit NDombele?
Poch signings for about £100m
Plus rose replacement in sessegnon so we could get rid of Danny Rose who is still at the club!!!

Well we've 'consistently been in Europe' over the last decade too. I didn't say they are Mickey Mouse, but if you honestly think Real Madrid to Chelsea to Man Utd to Spurs then to Roma are the job appointments of a man who isn't on a downward spiral, i can't say anything more to you.
Face facts: Jose is a busted flush. If he wasn't, he would have waited until the summer when one or two bigger jobs than Roma would perhaps be available. He knows his own reality now and no amount of old stats that you can bring up change the reality of the current Jose.
Both players were kept here because Poch didn’t know how to help get them out the doorI think that was the beginning of him putting pressure on the club to strike while the iron was hot, given the ridiculous overachievement he had given us. Take away his words and look at his actions - turning down Real. He loved this club and wanted to build something.
For whatever reason, they stopped trusting him and I’ll never understand it. The spirit and culture he built was our competitive advantage. Selling Walker allowed us to maintain it. Keeping Eriksen and Rose hanging around the club long after it was clear they wanted out started our decline IMO. We went from decisively selling a bad apple and getting a good return on the deal, to letting negativity fester. That was the worst thing about Derp

You blaming poor coaching for these players' performance? I am laughing my arse off.He is a Spurs fan so it will be a massive wrench for him. So, understandable if just he wanted the chance to say goodbye. I don't believe the announcement affected our performance that much, if at all. My guess is all the players knew already he was on his way.
We lost today mainly because of Reggie's howlers, but the overall performance was not untypical of what we've been serving up for most of the season.
The way we are playing speaks of chronically poor coaching. Panic defending, wimpishness in the tackle, consistently sloppy passing.
So it's not just about bringing in new players, we need a dynamic manager to come in and drill the whole squad until they drop.
He’ll probably do ok at whatever next club he joins with a half reasonable chairmanOk, why is Mourinho a busted flush? All I see is a manager who is only second to Alex furguson an guardiola... why do you consider him a busted flush? Im going by his track record, I wish we had a busted flush as a manager.
He is a serial winner .. except at spurs.
So basically he is a busted flush because he took a job at an established club like Roma? OK mate

YepYou realise he was sacked before he could play GLC and Sess for more than about 3 games right?
Waffling fat clam Jonathan Pearce has already sold Kane on MotD.

I think Eriksen only wanted to leave after the end of the summer 2018 transfer window tbh. He gave a video interview after that 5-4 Leicester game that got us third in 2018 and said "see you next season" in a way that he was looking forward to being with us for that season and beyond. When he saw that we hadn't strengthened he felt, hang on this club isn't really ambitious and i'm not going to tie myself here further.
Rose, had a blabbamouth and yeah, not dealing with him decisively might certainly have been an issue, but then again, he was often referred to as Poch's lost son so i'm not sure blame for not getting him out could be aimed at Levy.
It's not so easy for a club like us to just drop and sell an asset at the drop of a hat. Only a Emirates Marketing Project or Man Utd can do that and maybe that's where some divergence of vision came into being between Poch and Levy/ENIC...
To be fair he’s only about 3 months ahead of Levy here....Waffling fat clam Jonathan Pearce has already sold Kane on MotD.

I love Kane. I don’t want him to leave. We have been so privileged to have a player of his world class calibre come through our ranks and haul us through so much. But I am finding it hard to forgive him for setting off this whole circus right at this point of the season.
It was always pretty clear to me: we weren’t competing on finances, we were competing on spirit, system and culture. We lose that, we then go back to batting at par, which is 6th placed finances building a 6th placed squad.
I think we needed to be decisive in getting players out to maintain that spirit at all costs. It is why the Poch era launched well in the first place, getting rid of the bomb squad. 5 years down the line and we arrived at a similar place, a group with poor fundamentals who didn’t want to be here anymore. Poch doesn’t work well in that environment so we let our biggest difference maker go. For these players. Who just did not deserve to be hung on to.
Yep
But what about the rest I’d the players that let him down ...
The ones form the CL final who people were still saying were good enough 6 months ago?
Levy will get bent over as he always does mate. I suspect we’ll get 100m for Kane and the words ‘special relationship’ will get used.He's playing a dangerous game, this drags on, England don't perform at the euros and Harry will get hung out to dry.
He's England captain, he knows how Levy works, he walking right in to it.
