    Luka Vuskovic

    But again, why not take a loan for a year and then re-evaluate where he stands with Spurs after a year of PL experience? That’s what I’m not following here? Why the push for a permanent move? Why the talk of ‘mutual trust’ with another manager? Are we really less likely to sell than Brighton...

    Luka Vuskovic

    Yeah, no doubt. Which then leads me to question - is the Brighton thing legit? Or is this just something to kick up enough of a fuss to get him out and straight to Bayern or something? From LV’s point of view, both from wanting to play now and wanting to end up at the elite most possible...

    Luka Vuskovic

    I may be wrong but I think I saw Ornstein backing up that Vuskovic had openness to the move and had agreed terms. The Plettigoal guy I don’t care about, but Ornstein is credible, I may have been getting people mixed up though. My point remains, LV should be perfectly happy taking a prem loan...

    Luka Vuskovic

    I have no intel other than more trusted journos indicating that he would be willing to take a permanent move there. I’m not sure if it’s a play to force our hand to get him in our side this season or whether it’s his genuine feeling. But if he was committed to us more this wouldn’t be a story...

    I feel like Brighton gets you to Liverpool / Chelsea / Arsenal, but Spurs gets you to Madrid and building the team around you.

    Luka Vuskovic

    The alternative view of that is that Spurs are the place you go if you want to prove that you can genuinely be one of the best in the world. Modric and Bale went to Madrid after showing what they could do with us - regular European football, teams that defend deep against us, higher...

    Luka Vuskovic

    I would find this a bit odd from Vuskovic’s PoV. We signed him, we waited for him to arrive, we found him a good loan. At the same time, he did really well while we as a club did really badly. How can promises possibly have been broken seriously at this point? I think the way Vuskovic or his...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Me too. And I’m sure we’ll do that plenty under RDZ in the coming season. Felt like the league as a whole though, no one really lit it up. No one really pummelled teams the way we did at peak Poch. The winners certainly didn’t.

    I ageee we didn’t really best any teams with a flurry. I guess my question is, with the way the game is now in the PL, was any team winning with flurries?

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    I think you and Raziel are both arguing your case really well here. I instinctively land more on your side, but it’s been fun to read this debate. The question I have for @Raziel , is that even if we accept things weren’t that bad under Levy, that post 2019 wasn’t a clear drop, did anything at...

    The game changed around the club while we stayed the same.

    Maybe it’s better to take that word out. Maybe demonstrable incompetence is the better phrase.

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    Again, I’m not talking about merely getting gazumped, I’m talking about too clever by half tactics firstly with examples over years and then in quick succession that have demonstrably held us back. If you don’t think there was anything odd about those deals then fine…I just think with the...

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    To be clear, I’m not talking about losing out, or getting gazumped. Losing on Semenyo for example is no where near as embarrassing. Those sorts of deals do indeed happen all the time. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, but it’s not embarrassing. For different reasons, both the MGW and Eze...

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    Even still, on those deals, to get so close to them and then be outmanoeuvred, I think it was an embarrassment to the club and it showed Levy couldn’t do what needed to be done. I’m not saying it was the only factor, and I can completely see that the different parties having different opinions...

    I actually made a similar point a few weeks ago. I think DL majorly screwed up in the summer and they removed him. I don’t know it for sure of course, but it’s the only thing that makes sense to me. When DL was initially sacked, I thought that it must have been VV had known all along, and it...

    Two things… I find it interesting that Ange is described as the charlatan snake oil salesman plucked from obscurity to somehow secure this job he was not qualified for, and only got by on good communication skills. But Frank supposedly gets a pass for actually demonstrating no actual...

    Vinai Venkatesham - CEO

    My acceptance of Ange comes from the fact that he delivered some success and a performance level before the injury crisis took hold. And that he never lost the players or made them feel bad about the way they played. And so I was always interested in the idea that with a fitter squad more used...

    I actually find I learn a lot from the different perspectives I read on here if it can make me consider something I’d never thought before. It doesn’t need to absolutely be the ITK official answer, but I’m very interested in how the conflation of circumstances put us in that position, or what...

    Yes mate, but I a few pages ago thought it was at least interesting to debate how and why it was able to happen. Clearly you don’t agree, so I’ll move on.
