I don't know why Levy has such a great reputation on deals as compared to Chelsea he is a total novice. They make money off players they don't even play in their first team squad. We should have been speculating on kids like Dembele at Dortmund and Lemar before they end up at big teams. We go for average players like Nike and Nkoudou for around £10 millions when if we spent around £15 million we get much better potential and quality. Those guys were all recommended to Spurs and with just dither and piss people off by with stupid offers. Look at Tielemans gone to Monaco and we will probably want him next year but won't be able to afford him when we could have likely had him this season
To be fair, Alexis went up a level after moving from Barca where he was undervalued. He was never considered world class until he moved to Arsenal. Arsenal will be making a huge statement with their first two signings if they come to pass. If they bring in a few more of that caliber then they certainly won't be the same team they were last year.Lemars a top talent but he's gone to Arsenal to play under a manager where talented players stagnate, best of luck to him.

TBH I was actually going to mention Alexis in that post, that he is the odd one out, and that's down to him training himself but almost every other player they have signed has stagnated. We will have to see how good lemars attitude is. But I never believed for a minute we woUld sign him so it doesn't bother me at all
Yeah but you all knew this anyway...you know that we're always going ot find it difficult to aquire players because we don't pay top dollar so why is anyone surprised?
It's almost lke you think we're not geting deals done on purpose.
I agree, but teams like Crystal Palace and Wet Spam are paying players more than our highest earners. I don't expect Levy to change his stance much on highest earners or try to sign anyone expecting mega wages.
I don`t know why we don`t pay for quality and just often waste money on poor signings..... wasted close to £50 million last summer!! I bet Levy doesn`t buy second best for his house... why do it for our players?
to be fair they are paying 1 or 2 players more, but the rest of their squad doesn't compare otherwise their wage bills would be more than ours
with Lemar, he has most probably been offered more wages with the scum, and with Sanchez more likely to leave, and Cazola most probably finished, he is more likely going to start for them quite regular, where as with us he has more competition.
@Shadydan to be honest I watch a hell of a lot of PL football mainly due to playing a fair amount of Fantasy Football (not saying you don't, but many just watch Spurs). Demarai Gray looks quite nimble and fast, but so many times gets knocked off the ball so easy, very inconsistent, and his 2 bad points are tracking back, and leaving it too late to get involved. he also wants away from Leicester for game time, and he isn't good enough if our 1st team are fit.
Who is actually good enough for our first team?
Gray can be moulded and if Poch likes him then he clearly sees something in him.

I wonder if there is a fan on a Dortmund/Monaco/Chelsea fan site slagging their owners off for not buying Bale or Dele when they were cheap as chips?

Perhaps they were not offered them !!
We are not the richest which is why we should be expanding the Dele and Bale model as much as possible because once top players reach 21/22 we can`t afford them
Quick! Lets abandon what got us here and get in a queue for a pool of players that we'll be second best for every time.The thing is as Spurs we always expect the same
But ffs ! We finished 3rd last year 2nd this. Why shouldn't we be signing these players have sadly been dismissed by the itk???
It will be very frustrating come august and not added the 2-3 top quality players we need to progress as the others will do. To stay in around title challengers.
It's still early days but we need to be aiming high, no more n'kouda 'a njie, stanbouli types we need quality.
