Vuskovic I was talking about, not Sensei (sorry if id confused things). Its hard to tell with him, but im pretty sure Vuskovic is technically right footed (though he plays on the left side)

Ah yes. Yea he seems naturally right. He's scored a few scissor/bicycles with his right which would be bloody hard weaker foot!

Vuskovic is right footed but comfortable on his left.
Senesi is left footed but comfortable on his right.
Danso is right footed and uncomfortable on his left.
VDV is left footed and uncomfortable on his right.

The last guy was at fault. We spent money terribly over most of the last 8 to 10 years or so or so of his reign.

If you think the amount of money we have spent is the problem we've had at Spurs then I don't think you've honed in on the real problem.

It's because he doesn't see Levy's football acumen as a problem.

He thinks the only thing limiting Levy was funds available, not how he used the available funds.

Our squad is significantly worse than those we want to compete with (top 6), so we need to catch up and improve beyond that.

Being conservative, we need 1st team ready, top 6 talent for CF, LW, CM, probably RW and GK. And that's if RDZ doesn't decide to move on a couple of players that don't suit him in one way or other (talent or attitude)

Our owners have claimed they have identified the gaps (assume part of that is the spending badly) and they are going to invest (more money). I am saying we should expect more money spent better.

I'm amazed that you don't think it would be odd, after spending a consistent >120M-150M net a season to suddenly go 2 windows with zero to limited net spend is not only a hinderance to our improvement, but a more telling indication that these owners are just fudging liars.

Why do we need a RW when we likely have Kudus and Kulusevski back for start of next season?

I'm not sure about this. Selling Argentina's 1st choice CB for a big fee and replacing him with Argentina's 6th choice (also older) CB on a free and lower wages.

On paper it seems like more squad downgrading/asset stripping by ENIC. Replacing Kane with Solanke etc.

I see it as...

1) Romero has decided to go, and for the overall shape of the club going forward it has been decided to agree. I doubt DeZerbi wants anyone who is not 100% committed.

2) It allows Vuskovic to spend another year honing and developing; I suspect we'll take him back after next season. I did not know what you pointed out yesterday re: homegrown, and honestly? I look forward to having those problems again!!!

3) Let's see what else we do in the window.

I don't especially see this as asset-stripping TBH. I think given Romero's history with the PGMOL, reputation, and the waves of anger (IMO misdirected) towards him this season, he might well be ready to go elsewhere.

Or just playing Moneyball to achieve the GHod of zero net spend, same as always. Downgrade at CB, throw the dice again at CF etc.

Well, there is always that...I will always continue to believe in the positive though mate. I don't think RDZ wuld tolerate asset-stripping or moneyball personally.

We will see at the end of the window, the concern really is (I'm with @Gutter Boy on this one)

- Last summer, we spent 150M net, 220M total
- Since Levy left, the signings look like (making assumptions on widely reported), Johnson out, Gallagher in, Romero/Davies out, Robertson, Senesi, Savino in.
- That's is a zero net spend (probably), for "new" owners who keep telling everyone the last guy was the fault and they are going to invest, I'm not seeing the investment (happy to be wrong at end of window)

Let's face it, the window hsn't even opened yet and we're already predicting doom?!!!
I totally understand the cynicism (I am there in some ways myself) and we do have to see what they do this summer -the World Cup complicates certain things too.
I would be VERY surprised to see a big money signing of a World Cup player until post-tournament, quite simply because you want to be sure they come through unscathed injury-wise. This WC is going to break a few players IMO.
