    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I would dispute he played in the hole in those early games - he was up and down the pitch getting on the ball from as deep as our box and as far up as the oppo 6 yard box. I'd wager he was covering more ground than any of our players in that period

    Maddison was covering a lot of ground in the early part of season before last iirc dunno if we can get isolated stats per game but that's how I remember it

    I mean that should just be a given part of what to expect at this level

    Seems a little 2+2 atm Mbuemo being on the market and us having appointed his manager

    One of my other issues with using the percentage of turnover stat is that there are too many variables across clubs regarding set expenditure before player trading and wages that make a blanket wages vs turnover pretty meaningless. For example, due to us financing the debt on the stadium and...

    Kulu is a difficult one - has a lot of good attributes but I'm not sure there's a position on the pitch that really gets enough out of them. He'd be behind Maddison in terms of no.10 and we've seen that out wide he doesn't really provide enough in terms of end product

    Cristian Romero

    Romero can barely string a sentence together in English so was likely drafted by someone else on his behalf

    Ok fair enough, happy to use numbers from accounts as a point of reference in that case. Are they the latest numbers available? How does that tie in with the W2T ratio which is always presented as an up to date figure? If we don't have the current accounts how can we calc the statistic...

    An FA Cup win would run it close - I'm of the opinion that European cups hold more prestige but there are plenty that consider FAC in higher regard (than the EL or ConL)

    https://fbref.com/en/comps/9/wages/Premier-League-Wages There's another source - that suggests the same. Those numbers will not show Salah & VVD new contracts though.

    Come on mate, surely you know it's been weaponised more recently since the net spend argument has been rendered obsolete. Fair play on highlighting that it has indeed come up in discussion previously but briefly reading through the discussions those quotes lead to it's not the focal point -...

    We should be around 5th/6th as a base target but within reason I just want to see the bedding in of tactics and some of what has been spoken about regarding what makes Frank a good manager.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I can see why some think that we're leaving money on the table when they see the W2T ratio in a table but it doesn't take much thinking to see it's not as black and white. There's some smart people who use it to push an agenda which is quite annoying as they should know better than to just take...

    Transfers/wages both come from the same pot - if we spend more on one the available money for the other reduces (lots of other expendenditure, but more consistent/known?) We've had a lot of player turnover the last few years trying to rebuild, more transfers = higher transfer spend - there could...

    Now that they can't complain about transfer spend they've moved on to wages as a % of turnover, something that has never once previously been a point of reference in all my years discussing Spurs online.
