I haven’t made any comment like that soooooso why did he say he wasnt being ironic or sarcastic? I dont understand how everyone can hold Poch in such high esteem and not take him at his explicit word.

My impression, Poch has played a blinder here.Just posted this in the Post Mortem but
Poch’s attitude today makes so much more sense now after Herc and Valencia’s comments.
He knows Levy embarrassed himself, hence his looseness/happiness at the presser. “I told you so”
Every missed opportunity will be laid at the feet of Daniel Levy this year.I feel sorry for Poch I really do, he’s getting stick in the press for not winning a trophy yet he’s at a severe disadvantage.... he’s working with one hand tied behind his back and expected to compete with clubs throwing money into their squads.
I’m worried that this may be the last season we are lucky enough to share with him
I haven’t made any comment like that sooooo
it IS exactly the same - thats why Im not upset. as far as the stadium, we havent earned an extra nickel from it yet.
I think Poch knows how to play the media game well enough to lie when he has to lie. I don’t think he’s all honesty.like what? I assumed you were saying we shouldnt take Poch's comments at face value when he said we should. If I misunderstood I apologize.

Is the likely fallout that we lose top 4, Poch and Eriksen because of this Windows dealings
If they are genuinely in it for the long term and this window was weighed up as a risk not worth taking by keeping the boys together I think Poch will continue his work with us for a fair few years yet.
I'm sure he won't let one signing from the Championship undo all of the hard work he has done so far and next summer we'll have spaces to fill with the probable departure of Alderweireld & inevitable departures of Dembele & Llorente at a minimum. The foundations are exactly the same as they were albeit with one, possibly two less players pushing for a first team place. The positive to this is that our lack of acquiring certain quality identified will open up genuine chances for Winks, Onomah, Amos & Skipp to make that spot their own by the time summer 2019 comes around. I think all will be fine
My fear isn't so much this season but next. If we can't spend money on players while being in the cl what happens if we drop out? The stadium is a long way from being paid off.
Wouldn’t the argument be that we still have the CL money that should have been spent this year for next year?My fear isn't so much this season but next. If we can't spend money on players while being in the cl what happens if we drop out? The stadium is a long way from being paid off.

Agreed but what would we all think if we had signed a really expensive player, he turned out to be shit, we missed out on the top 4 and due to doing so we had to sell one of our mainstays to balance the books? I wonder if everyone would be as pissed off that we held fire then if that happened, which has every chance if you buy a wrong'un for top dollar at a time you're trying to pay off a £1bn pound development projectThe fact we needed so little is both a point of relief and a source of frustration. We have a quality squad luckily, but 'what if' will undoubtedly be on the lips of many this season.
