Herc ITK said he was PROMISED (was in caps) 3 signings
and that somehow translates into "big signings completed early in the window as incentive to sign a new contract amid interest from madrid"

We're hoping on resurrecting this on deadline day.That's a shame. I thought he was nailed on.
I'd guess that many of our regular matchday-attending fans*, who will be paying the highest prices in the country next season, care quite a bit about where the money comes from. Probably why plenty of them would likely welcome us showing an increased ambition in our ability to compete in the 'second' financial tier of the transfer market (because even the most impatient fan knows we can't compete in the top tier), commensurate with the top tier ticket prices that they're being asked to pay this year.Jeez....supporters today man... So self entitled. I want this player, I want it now, nice and shiny and i don't care where the money comes from.....
I was only referring to the 3 signings aspect of it as I dont see how even thatll happen now.
No. Burnley the other. Crystal Palace have technically made a signing but only a 30+ goalkeeper on a free.Are we the only team in the premiership not to have made a transfer?!
Is this place turning into RAWK? So many over-the-top reactions here regarding a transfer window that doesn't close for two weeks. Good god.
Poch put pressure on Levy at the end of the season by unusually breaking ranks and saying Levy needs to be brave and hinting at uncertainty regarding his future etc, he then signed so were obviously assured of something. Many assume that this was a promise of new purchases, but I wonder if it wasn't more to do with the wage structure and paying the likes of Kane what they deserve. To me this is more in character with what we have seen from Pochettino, looking after his players and wanting to keep this squad together. He signed and we then smashed the wage structure to keep Kane happy. I suspect we will learn that Eriksen and Alli and other key players have also signed vastly improved contracts. Clearly we want to buy well in this window, but it is possible that Poch's biggest concern has already been resolved in what was a pretty monumental move from Levy.

Why do so many think Poch is as clueless as you (we) are about what’s happening in the transfer market?
I wonder how long our best players, who would instantly become the best players in the world outside the Champs League would stay? Hint: They wouldn't stay, and nor would the manager
Ah the old "mass exodus".
Im a regular, and if any other regulars were seriously expecting us to go mental in the transfer market, then obviously they weren't listening to Poch's comments before the season ended.I'd guess that many of our regular matchday-attending fans*, who will be paying the highest prices in the country next season, care quite a bit about where the money comes from.

*for the record, I'm not a regular myself
