So never mind net spend. It was profit-taking today. A little early - as this usually happens in January. Good business for the Club. More money in the coffers. The start of a five year plan. Of course it made no sense to try and improve the first team - Spurs opponents are just beyond us. We have a first-rate coach who will transform our current group of players into world beaters.

Hull & QPR have stupid, spend-thrift owners.

Spurs is a well-run club where making a profit is the paramount objective. We should be proud of that.

I think Pochettino now knows what it means to be Levied. AVB knows what that means. The tradition continues.

But the Club is making money. And we should all be pleased with that.

Lads I'm sure we all agree the club fucked up when we were 4th in January 10 points ahead of the scum and we didn't invest in quality.

Everything since has just been a knock on effect

A bit dissapointed: Lost two of my fav players in Sandro and Gylfi and gained a few backups (+ that Fazio guy I've never heard about that aparently's replacing Dawson)

We should have the money to actually improve our squad, I mean, even if we don't have a "City" wallet, we're not a poor club.

IMO Our lack of ambition will in the long run cost us both money and potential new fans (harsh but true).

Not saying we should splash unreasonble money, but at least show more ambition than we've done this window..

1.2.3

Now we show the world that we can win the title with an inferior squad and a uprising star head coach! ;)

wait i just checked - we've actually bought 5 players this window. And kept our best players. And we replaced Sherwood with Poch.

panic over.

Why are they boring, there is plenty of truth in his post. If your one of the happy lot on here then god help us.
If your one of the doom mongers, you might be pleasantly suprised after 36 games not 3.

And in steams @Stoof to tell you why you're throwing your toys out of the pram rather than just being underwhelmed, which apparently isn't a valid point of view.

It's a short termist point of view. Based on today probably.

Yet again a person failing to step back and see the bigger picture.

Wait a min.... I thought we were signing Schneiderlin, Musacchio, Depay, J.Rodriguez & Tevez???

Back to reality... another window and another net profit. Get use to it guys.

You're right, it's my opinion that the squad is stronger, what's yours.



Rogers finished 8th or something in his first season.
Difference is we will most probably sack Poch if he finished 8th, or he will walk.

No doubt Poch will be sacked if we haven't made CL this season or next, at least give him the tools to do the job by investing in the squad, but we know there is more chance of the pope converting to islam than Poch being backed

We are a Harrods club run by owners who have a 99p store mentality

There's no doubt in my mind that this has been a poor to average window.

We've lost goals from midfield with Holtby and Siggi and a huge amount of experience with Sandro.

I'm hoping our squad doesn't suffer burn out trying to adapt to poch's system.

A cup win is long overdue and I really want us to go full bore on in the Europa.

One things for sure, I'm handing out a lot of funny ratings (and the number for the Samaritans) in this thread when the ratings come back.
