TOTTENHAM ARE STILL A BIG CLUB!

i think the midfield chemistry changing to allow sissoko to gallop into legend is of a piece with the fading of any consistency of sting eriksen or alli could bring and especially in kanes absence

hard to see which jenga piece you remove, if you have to move any

Justin Edinburgh rip

just saw that, very sad

Fuck, 49 years old.

when you see a healthy looking guy going at that age I think perhaps it's time to build my ikea wardrobe coffin. not meant in an arsehole way ftr but jeez.

i did not actually expect levy to change his style

i thought he would have to, in order to keep poch and to pay back the stadium fiasco and the lack of signings, i think he also knows now that preseason is a must

i just didnt think yknow he would actually change

looks like weve bought ndombele, early, for big bucks

65m doesn't buy you what it used to, and it's not that much considering, and a great signing, but yeah i didn't think levi's splash it out either

It would be a very good price in the current market given the competition for him.

Clarke from Leeds for £8.5m would also be interesting if that goes through.

poch rollin back into training day one sittin out top the sunroof with ndombele sessegnon de ligt mbappe and eh clarke and blaring out the woofers

its getting to the stage where we might need to talk about troy

barney not only wrote the obit early but got it printed https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/sep/27/punkish-pochettino-nears-end-tottenham-hotspur-era

bit of a downer on the day we secure the best player in the world until 2023 imo

lads

the fuck u say to me

m8

no m8 lets hear it m8

it's sad. they were a club

swear to fuck if pochettino goes ill just follow wherever he lands next, the fuck would i want the pack thats in it in any divorce

While his England teammate, Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier said: "My pace is 54 and my dribbling is 65 - it makes no sense."

lock thread, tbh

*pops popcorn, charges phone*

Looking forward to find out who you end up supporting darragh

tottenham youth

Don't think that's where Poch is going

well its a safe place to avoid mourinho

lol

I have come the the conclusion recently that I hate football so this appointment works for me on a number of levels.

How convenient :)

will say this

cant accuse levy of taking the easy route

Trip to Old Trafford two weeks today should be fun

Glad I got my ticket for the Chelsea match. Crowd response will be interesting for the Bournemouth..

Crazy thing is whilst Spurs are languishing in 14th place, because most of the other teams are also a crock of shit this season, if we'd just won the Brighton game we'd currently be 5th.

crazy thing is being 14th when all other teams are shit tbh

jesus that is huge, absolutely huge

Toby?

yep

I wonder how this influences Vertonghen.

Does he stay on now?

guess yes

tho hes not as automatic or urgent a case imo, hes lost a few yards this summer

if jose can operate without such a high line then that pair has a year or two left, if not then jan is destined for a covering cb/lb role until his contract winds down maybe

I'm quite happy with Sanchez and Toby at CB and Vertonghen at LB. Even at LB Vertonghen is a better option that Rose or Davies, and the two Belgians together aren't pacy enough any more.

More than anything else we desperately need to sign a defensive midfielder who can complement Ndombele. Even if it's just on loan.

Sanchez's mistakes tend to be down to lack of experience rather than physical attributes, he desperately needs a run in the team because he could become great.

Jan looked chasing after Adama like when as kids my dad would jump in for a few minutes

certainly that's not sustainable, at lb

Matic is available

agreed that jan at lb is not going to do the job that our lb has been asked to do the past five years

whether we keep asking either of our full backs to carry so much water remains to be seen tho

Also, Bergwijn probably in for youse (deems and I agreed a fee on whatsapp earlier). He's leaving a club in disarray though, with mgmt not having ok'd him doing a medical at Spurs.

thought psv manager admitted sulkily that hed told him go ahead

sounded like it mightve been a bit pass-agg mind

I was surprised he is only 22, he seems to have been around for ages. Would probably prefer Malen but he’d likely cost 3x as much.

The (interim) manager sulkily did, big boss man didn't tho. We're in a shambles rn and though not the best of looks I honestly can't blame the lad for fleeing the scene.

Malen a different player (more of a striker), he'd cost you more though yeah.
