    Cody Gakpo

    Gakpo is a direct scorer, Savio is more of a creator. So it depends on what you prefer? Someone with more general game involvement who can be used break teams down, hit on the counter and relieve pressure or Gakpo who will be involved in the general game less but has a much more direct threat...

    Spurs Revisonist History - Pochettino Summer of 2016

    That era was so disappointing, we just let talented players go and sign for every other team seemingly never even trying to get them. That squad stagnating as it did was inevitable with our behaviour and lack of ambition.

    I would not ever fudging sign Sissoko, he was the harbinger of downfall.

    Free transfers

    I don't understand your argument. When Levy was in charge and people argued for us to spend more you defended him now he's not in charge you're shouting for more spend, which is it can you be consistent? It does come across like you just want to defend first Levy's position and secondly...

    Slander. Toby passed to feet over distance.

    Free transfers

    Raziel won't get your post, I've had this discussion with numerous times for I think a few years now. He's more aligned with the thinking that the only solution is to spend more, how that's is spent I don't think comes into his thinking. Like you say our actual spending figures of the last 5...

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    Jose did the best he could with an particularly unsuited squad for him. He obviously saw the talent but he's just not the type of midfielder he uses. Jose prefers physically workers who pass first and work it out to the wings or his playmaker who drops, Ndombele was a progressor either with the...

    I honestly think Ndombele would have done well under Poch for the same reasons. He started off very well, but then Mourinho came in and Ndombele was never the style of player he would have in his midfield. He was such a poor choice of manager for us given the squad we had at the time. Absolutely...

    Sure, I do understand the realities and intricacies of making these moves. I will caveat though that in the case of Fernandes, he didn't move to United instead of us. He moved to United because we couldn't close the deal with Sporting, with whom we had a free run at. His move to United came 6...

    Ben Davies

    Ok more concerned about the limited places in the squad and his injury prone history but let's see how it all plays out before criticising.

    Ben Davies

    Very true, but we've also said that for many years and the result on September the 1st wasn't any more appealing. I agree let's wait and see before we make any judgments but I can definetly understand those that don't trust the scorpion thats already stung them multiple times.

    No that was later under Mourinho. Some weird sort of agent appeasement. I think they genuinely thought he had some potential but Jose barely played him once he'd seen him up close.

    Gas. If you think we had the 7 best players in their positions you need to see a optician. 🤣 If he had gotten Wijnaldum we would have never gone for Ndombele. If we had gotten Fernandes (as he wanted) we wouldn't have gone for Lo Celso. Both are cases of not getting the ideal choice and having...

    I hope not. Both teams lack creativity and width.

    Daniel Levy - Former Chairman

    I agree with the thrust of your post although I think Tielemans would have been a good option to add to the squad at the time and he offered something none of the 3 you mentioned had, passing quality from deep. However it's never actually been confirmed that Tielemans was offered, he just...
