They both start with H, though. Hmm, interesting...
So does "Hitchen"

Almost ironic, in the midst of an economic crash he starts throwing money around ?Very true but strange it's happening with Spurs and the much derided Daniel Levy when many clubs are facing financial losses over the pandemic
Hope Jose has found an answer to our back up problems, scoring in PL will be a big step up from scoring in Portugal, did Jan put in good word for us at Benfica ?
It does seem as though much of the failings of previous windows was on Poch. It makes little sense to not have backed Poch when we were challenging for different trophies, but to back Jose now.Almost ironic, in the midst of an economic crash he starts throwing money around ?
although if rumours were true, we’ve had money to spend, just that previous management didn’t want to bring anyone in
Catching up on this thread this morning and we’re signing a player who’s a cross between:
Drogba
Berbatov
Adriano
Jiminez
Gary Doherty
Jesus
Right ... got it anyone else?
Yeah agree really starting to enjoy the football to, seems like it’s starting to come together nocelyIt does seem as though much of the failings of previous windows was on Poch. It makes little sense to not have backed Poch when we were challenging for different trophies, but to back Jose now.
I have to tip my hat to Levy this time - the investment during a time of crisis is counter to everything we've previously known about the guy - this sort of investment in the team is ALL anybody has ever asked of him, so credit where it's due in these times.
Only concern is that the last time we invested like this, we seemed to rely on largely the same players for the following 7 years, just bringing in punts and squad filler in that period. Son was the only real standout buy in that time. I hope things will be different going forward, but now we've begun to refresh the team in the correct manner I hope incremental improvements can be made in each window going forwards.
I finally feel like we have a team worthy of the top 6, and transfers like Bergwijn are very promising as an indication of intent.
Everything points to Levy finally backing his man.
(I'm even enjoying the football on display).
Come on DKP, we’ve already gone over £50m or did you forget shoot Højbjerg:Dan KP: Tottenham set to complete Carlos Vinicius loan transfer with £40m option to buy
Tottenham set to sign Vinicius on loan with £40m option to buy
Tottenham are finally set to land a new striker for Jose Mourinho, with a loan deal for Benfica's Carlos Vinicius close to being completed.www.standard.co.uk
His arrival would take Tottenham's summer spending well beyond £50m after the captures of Matt Doherty for £15m, Sergio Reguilon for £27.5m and Gareth Bale, whose season-long loan will cost roughly £10m in wages.
We also already have one Benfica player in our squad... that probably helps too
That's what's worrying, not sure Gedson is PL quality for us challenging as a top team so how good are Benfica players.
You do know that apart from last season where there were mitigating circumstances so ended up 6th, we have been top four for the previous 4 years or so. Now we have a really upgraded squad and you still think us worthy of 6th.....I finally feel like we have a team worthy of the top 6, and transfers like Bergwijn are very promising as an indication of intent.

There's a Benfica player called 'Vertongen' or something, we should have a look at him maybeThat's what's worrying, not sure Gedson is PL quality for us challenging as a top team so how good are Benfica players.
