Tottenham Takeover Talk

gendoozi - miss
Pepe - rubbish

Yes, but we can gloss over that sort of stuff if we're trying to paint a picture. Every club has successes and failures and I reckon we're about average.

All he said was "Either the manager's position changes or a lot of other things change," said Klopp.

Who gives a fuck about Liverpool….. this is a spurs site

So nothing to see here then.

Honestly, I’d ignore the Liverpool Qatari links until all the Liverpool based journalists run with it. Not a single English journalist is reporting any of this news, yet with our leak there were loads. That tells its own story.

I believe @Yid121 is who you need to reply to.

Would any serious investor be happy with not having Conte as manager?

If he’s allowed to walk I really think that this isn’t close whatsoever. Nobody could be that short sighted if they were to come in afresh.

Already given up hope of this happening. It's literally the only thing that is going to save us from turning into Crystal Palace (with a nicer stadium)

I feel its too easy to pin ones hopes on this deal saving us. Maybe if we were being bought outright then i could understand but as it is i don't see how it will. It might help but i don't think its going to be a magic anti Levy pill that will make everything right with the world. But yes, i agree that i don't think its about to get done in the next two weeks which realistically means it wont effect what happens to Conte as Conte wont stay if we don't bring in the players he wants. And that doesn't seem to be happening.

It wouldn't, but using your analogy I'd say it was the first dose of a course of antibiotics that would have the same end result over a longer timescale.

I think it’s more long term than that. Having big investment in will shape our future, but probably not the present. Personally think any management situation is irrelevant for them.

I guess thats better then nothing. Just a shame as it means more treading water for a while longer.

If Arsenal win the PL without oil money, anything we 'won' with it would be meaningless. Their achievement would always be profoundly greater.

Deep down we know it too, we'd be invalidated as a club.

Not that helpful then being as everybody and his dog seem utterly obsessed with the present.

Well we'll show them by not winning anything "the right way".

 

[Mark8828]

Conte has said plenty of times the rebuild will take a number of windows and I’m sure said we need one or two big name additions per window as well. Any investment won’t fix things straight away but I personally would be happy knowing we can go and spend £70/80m on the right player each window and do that with financial security. We have the manager, we have the stadium, training ground and world class player already so just need the financial backing to step up.

True, but it wouldn't matter to many. They'd say that Chelsea, City fans aren't bothered about it, but the truth is that some of their fans did walk away when the dirty money rolled in and now don't have a voice.

They've already done that

No it probably won’t please everyone. But if it starts the ball rolling on the potential end of the current ENIC reign, then that’s a good thing.

They've already done that 3 times under Wenger.

 

[Nick-TopSpursMan]

What we need as a club is a complete reset but it just isn't going to happen.

New owners in, Paul Barber in as CEO, Michael Edwards in as Sporting Director and then a new manager (I have my preference but the whole structure is more important).

 

[bat-chain]

Arsenal would say and they'd always be right we had to buy it, they won it. We'd also never have the chance to really win anything again.

Maybe that means something to some people, means nothing to me, Chelsea have truly won nothing Man City won nothing really (modern day). Plenty of their fans know it as well.

It's like a doris who has a boob job, really she's got a couple of silicon cushions shoved up her top or a bloke who has a knob extension, he thinks he's got a massive cock but the reality is he's got a saveloy in his trousers.

Nothing to be proud of, in your heart you know it's a sausage.
