from pochs mouth

"It is so difficult now, only four hours to the end. Until the game finishes you can’t say it is the end of the game but in four hours it will be difficult to sign players."
We bleeding had over 2months.

If you believe that the only way to improve is to constantly rotate staff then yes. If you think that any of our World Cup semi-finalists (and winner) haven't learnt anything or mentally strengthened since their 2017 selves then also yes.
World Cup Winner Fernando Llorente sure helped a lot.

"I am happy to keep all the squad together, there were many rumours during the summer about players out," the Spurs boss said.
"The club made a massive effort to try and extend contracts of Harry Kane, just one example. The club is trying to finish the stadium as soon as possible.
"It is difficult to understand for people in football that Tottenham didn’t sign or didn’t sell players but sometimes in football, you need to behave different.
"We are happy with our squad and we cannot improve our squad. It is better to keep our squad all together, we believe a lot in our players."


There you go...Poch is as happy as Larry!

Sure but those semi finalist don’t make up our whole squad, we might improve. However there are glaring weakness in our squad that should be addressed!

Understand that the end of the window is where optimum value is achieved, but this last minute shit is really wearing thin when you consider what Poch has achieved with less resources than his rivals.

Can we not even tweak are MO just a tad, and adapt to the fact that we want to keep this manager for a very long time.

If he was told he'd be backed and we've failed because of leaving it late again I don't think that's acceptable.

Would anyone be surprised if Poch left in a seasons time, then you worry for the rest, ala kane, Eriksen...

I hope Levy had not broken and promises and this isn't the beginning of the end for Poch.

2 in, 3 in, how about feck all in. A complet joke and the club has shown zero ambition. What happened to the alledged 150M war chest?
30 points behind the winners last season and we have done zip, nada, nothing a big fat zero to try and reduce that gap If Grealish thinks he's disillusioned, he should have a chat with the Spurs fans

Disappointing window for some but unsurprising given the increased costs in the rush to finish the stadium.

I am happy with the squad. The first 15-16 are great players. We have just lacked depth and this TW was an opportunity to strengthen. I am happy we have kept the squad together. Yes it’s looks like no shiny new toys but it is what it is.

We don’t know what promises Levy gave Poch. It will be interesting to see how Poch reacts. A few hours to go now and we will soon know.
