Makes sense as to why we may have pulled out of 2 deals this morning. Poch thought they were so shit he didn't even respond to Levy.Jesus- what the fuck is Levy up to?

You forgot to mention PochettinoWe may have won nothing but let me tell you the last 3 years have been fantastic in terms of both team and player development. Whatever the shortcomings of Mr Levy I have enjoyed the last 3 years as much as the previous 50 !!! People have short memories and they should remember a lot of the dross we have had to previously endure. For a club like ours in the current climate we have over achieved and 3 years running in the champions league is as good as winning a trophy.
It's from 2015What a piss take! If they don’t have anything to report - which they don’t, don’t say anything at all!
And to add to what Hercs said, Poch and Levy werent talking a week ago or so....i hate being negative....
You’re fucking excusedExcuse my language but bloody hell.
Thats all i know, i dont know the back story....i didnt mention it at all cos i hate being negative...Jesus- what the fuck is Levy up to?
For everyone going on about how much Pochettino has done for us, yeah he’s been great and I love him but come on, he’s not doing it out of the goodness of his heart, he’s doing his job, a very wonderful job that makes all of our jobs look horrible. I think he’s been brilliant and wouldn’t trade him for anyone (well, maybe Pep), but he’s paid to manage us to the best of his ability and that’s what he’s done. I’m not going to feel sorry for a guy who earns £8m a year to do a job that I’d do for enough to cover my meagre lifestyle.
Appreciate it. Makes sense in a seemingly senseless windowThats all i know, i dont know the back story....i didnt mention it at all cos i hate being negative...
No better time than today...Thats all i know, i dont know the back story....i didnt mention it at all cos i hate being negative...

Good points, but to be fair none of that has anything to do with this transfer window. In fact it makes it even more frustrating that the club has all of those positives but can't strengthen.
Would love to know who the two players were- it seems that Grealish was separate to themAdd this to the info a couple of days back about Levy not being unwilling to spend the money. Has this week been a Poch powerplay?
Top targets or youth. Levy can take the flak if it all falls down. Wonder if Poch shut some potential deals down today.
Someone contact BBLG, we need some serious spin to cheer us up after that.

With the exception of ENIC selling up soon, I'd imagine it was a combination of all of the above. Add to that, a dangerous level of hubris on behalf of Daniel Levy. He tried to outfox the realities of the window and came up short... very short.Either
• ENIC are selling up soon
• The stadium has eaten the transfer budget in light of no sponsor
• No one wants to deal with Levy / Levy's prices
• The market is tough
I believe it's the third reason.
Don't forget the new player lodge
If Liverpool, or Chelski or the Gooners hadn't strengthened over the summer, what would you have said? Would you have seen them as even more of a threat this season, despite everyone else around them improving their already better squads? We're moving into our iconic new stadium but without a marquee signing to herald a new beginning. We don't even have some squad freshener-uppers. What we have is what we had last season. A squad that finished 23 points off of first place. Actually we're a bit worse off this season because we over-relied on our stars last season because our squad was thin. This season our stars are coming off of a grueling summer, the likes of Dembele are a year older and more broken down, the likes of Kane, Ericksen, Alli and Lloris are a step closer to getting tired waiting for us to show some ambition to win something. Football doesn't stand still for you. If you're standing still, you're going backwards. There's no way to spin this window as anything other than a complete f*ck up. its not the end of the world but it is a f*ck up, a wasted opportunity and totally avoidable.
