    we came fifth the season before.

    Savinho

    the negativity around us is as a result of our two seasons as "sleeping giants". Our spending power, if fully unlocked, was always designed to be bigger than just about everyone else, because Levy in his legacy act of genius built us a colosseum, which we could use for all manner of other...

    Savinho

    we have only overpaid if we then don't improve. If we improve then the cost of the transfer becomes more or less immaterial, especially if we win trophies. Also don't believe the media numbers, there's always nuance and variation to everything. Someone suggested this morning that a lot of the...

    James Wilson

    fair play to the lad that is some strike. It was a very odd transaction all told - we didn't play him, he dropped out of league football in Scotland to play for the u21s down here and now he's gone back and we've not signed him. Then he does this. A definite display of recruitment confusion -...

    There you go. Cheers Robbo.

    ***Tottenham v Brentford OMT***

    is that today's wild and ridiculous assumption? There's plenty of players who have returned from ACL injuries and been able to get to return to international standard football. Do I need to go further than Rodri - who has just been voted best player at the world cup?

    you do remember Darren Anderton though right?

    Omar Marmoush

    the wheels are turning now and with there being no obvious competition from other clubs for either of them, I suspect its just a numbers game at this point. If we agree a number they like for the two, then we will get the deal done. Based on our negotiations being largely focussed on what we...

    I think you'd have to go back a bit further actually. It's hard to argue with Dumitrescu, Popescu, Klinsmann, and one Edward Sheringham in terms of sensationalism.

    Just to reiterate what orstein has just said, we are advancing a deal for Marmoush and Savinho. That would be some coup, they are both excellent and would directly weaken a competitor.

    Spurs Premier League Top 100 Transfer Fees - Adjusted for inflation

    I would say Toby for less than £23m was epic business. I really like his post player profile too, think he might end up back at Spurs in some capacity.

    That's hard to read when we were the last club, but it's clear he wanted to settle somewhere, and that he has had to drop down a league is linked to his current ability. Nobody from the top flight saw in him someone ready to start in premier league, he didn't get an offer from someone like...

    Mathys Tel

    We need depth at 11 and 9, adhering to this summer's policy of a general upgrade in quality, but as those of us have been saying about Tel for some time, given a chance he has the ability to do something transformational to his game this season, in the same way (please don't think he's as good...

    Cristian Romero

    You don't need to go that far from Spurs to find true world class. A comparison with Ledley King is enough. A man who combined a quiet and controlled demeanour with insane ability to read a game. King is famed for that tackle back against Chelsea now, but going to ground was an exception for...

    Cristian Romero

    All the best Cuti, you are a conflicting chap. You know what's nice though? In years gone by we'd have clung on and clung on to get £2m more for him, got right to the end of the window, and would have tied the recruitment staff up with a one out one in policy, and we would have ended up...
