    They could/may sell, at some point the offer will be right, that however is different from their objective was to sell (flip, doing it on cheap narrative), what that original time horizon was and is, unknown. And to put into context, ENIC have held on to Spurs longer than any other club in the...

    Yep, they are going for it .. I'm not sure Wirtz (or anyone not established top elite group) is worth that money, but they are in a place to build. Still think the VVD, Salah, end will be interesting for them to navigate when it comes.

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    He probably has till October or November to turn it around (very unlikely), so it's quite possible United is doing the ETH thing again (without the trophy) and not only will they have a limited pool of managers to choose from at that point, but less money, more players potentially not aligned to...

    A lot of that is a fundamentally wrong statement. ENIC (not Levy) does things on a self sustaining model which handicaps the club in ways, however. - All profit belongs to the owners, and they have put 20+ years of profit (i.e. their own money) into the club, so when people make the "oh, ENIC...

    Son Heung-Min

    His contract ends next year, so he can't be deadwood Worst case is we lose some revenue, pay extra wages and the season doesn't work out for him and fans turn on him.

    And I am 100% in the same place, why would a conservative chairman who's previous statements usually amount to vague commitment to "success on pitch/football side" comments, in a recorded statement say "a EL trophy is not enough, we want to win PL/CL"? he could easily have said we want to win...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    You can make a contract effective July 1st If we wait till post the Asia tour to then buy a major player, we have fudged the manager before we start Reality? none of us actually know and will judge when it's all done

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    No question, whoever buys Mbeumo is overpaying (and with us paying for Frank, Norgaard sold, Brentford is going to have even less need to sell), however for us (unfortunately more than United) think it's just such an easy piece of the puzzle (RW, pace, physical, scores and assists, allows us to...

    Plus it seems we will sell Veliz back to Argentina, probably a wash for the fee we paid for Kota

    Transfer thread

    RW is still both an area that could be improved and thin for cover (assuming Deki plays central) Son & Davies will probably be more their choice than club, i.e. club will take/accept offers, don't think we will push them out. Romero is unlikely to get the bid needed to make him move, and with...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I don't see Eze as the priority, I think that 10/central role under Frank is Deki (Frank demands a lot physically from that role) with Maddison as the backup. Yes, there will be an argument to -> if you can get a quality player, do so, just worried about the prioritization Personally felt...

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    And I did read your responses, in the end (for most rational people) - We can all accept that a squad that was thin in some areas, that had a ridiculous amount of injuries and prioritized (last 3 months of season) the cup, will have a direct impact on league results The continued disconnect is...

    Son Heung-Min

    And a system suited to him. As I said, bit of a circular conversation, we have to plan for life after him, he may be gone anyway, but if we keep him another season, the usage has to be smarter, and in that case, if we do, I think we can get a bit more out of him than we did last season.

    Son Heung-Min

    His positioning, reading of the game, his passing/assists are all still there Still one of the most two footed players in the game His pace is still there, just not the initial acceleration (hence why you would need to pass the ball in front of him into space, not an overloaded part of field)...

    Son Heung-Min

    The decline isn't what people think - 11 goals, 11 assists (22 Goal contributions) last season is a dreadful side - 17 goals, 10 assists (27 goal contributions) the season before yes, he's aging but he isn't dead, used correctly (in a system that actually plays to his strengths instead of...

    Don't meant to be argumentative but the wages feel like chicken and egg - Reason our wages are so low currently is a lot of our senior players have moved on in last 3 years (Kane, Dier, Lloris, etc.) and a lot of the incoming (Udogie, Bergvall, Gray, Wilson, etc.) are rightfully on low wages. -...

    Because UK fans will not put their fudging money where their mouth is, Spurs was publicly traded for years, did any of the supporters groups make an attempt to purchase any shares? even just to have voting rights? there are still ~13% of Spurs shares available, why are none of the groups buying?

    Different era, if you look at the spend of last 5 years, it's very different to Poch era (obvious reasons, hint, $B stadium) or pre Stadium. But just for arguments sake, how does getting CL on cheap benefit Levy? Spurs owners don't take dividends out, at best he gets a bonus (irrelevant number...

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    But there is a difference between "not prioritizing" and "roll over and die" This again is where we have differences of perception of what actually happened in league - Did we really rotate that hard in league, or did we just protect Romero & VDV? e.g. Deki got injured in league in one of the...

    So again, just for discussion purposes 1. Vic -> Forster, agree, club took a gamble (we know in hindsight the intention was Kinsky this summer) and it didn't pay off. Caveat -> PPG/league did not improve once we got Kinsky and/or Vic return (see my final point) 1. Romero/VDV ->...
