What do we need to win ‘titles’ ?

[arunspurs]

We can beat at least 10 to 12 teams home & away easily over a season. To improve at least in PL, we need to start winning games against top teams especially away from home. Often in past we have had those games where we don’t turn up or key players missing or simply opposition were better.

Only way to win these is to add quality in squad. We need competition for Eriksen, Dele & proper back up to Kane. And we need to start looking for a better keeper than Loris. I like him but there is a mistake in him especially in big games. When we are dealing with fine margins these errors make a lot of difference. Am not saying boot him out, just saying we need to have an open mind on keeper position

Worth noting that young Sessegnon is a tremendous talent but has a lot to learn defensively. I agree he will end up playing farther forward.

He will be better off where he is for a few more years as he won't be playing for our or a rival first team for many years.

Probably not one for us at this time.

This kid has already played 49 games in the championship and scored 10 goals from left back

Those stats are unheard of. He is clearly a freak in the mould of Rooney

To be doing that at 17 is quite unbelievable and someone will snap him up at the end of this season if not before

I hope it’s us. This guy does not turn 18 for another 6 months and clearly could become a very special talent

Yes he obviously has a lot to learn but who better to teach him than Poch and where better for the next part of his journey than at Tottenham

Surely the most exciting young prospect out there

Only two of those came from left back. Rest are from midfield. According to transfermarkt anyway.

In answer to the original question; we need some luck. I think the role luck plays in sport and everyday life is massively under appreciated. Unquestionably with a little luck we could have won the league in one of the last two seasons. Plus we could have easily beaten Chelsea in FA Cup semi final with a bit of luck last year. This year you could argue we've been unlucky with injuries. Moreover even in certain games we just haven't had the run of the green, ie we were unlucky to lose at home to Chelsea and with a bit of luck might have beaten Man Utd away. We are unfortunate that we play in a league where there are 6 quality teams including ourselves (but where the other 5 and 3 in particular have greater financial clout) plus a number of other clubs that can beat us on their day. This makes it very difficult to win anything. In conclusion to start winning titles we need to carry on doing exactly what we've been doing for the last few years and hope for a bit of luck.

Yeh not sure there is anyone under 18 right now anywhere with such high potential.

Kelp, Molasses, Calcium and Magnesium.

Yeah we could certainly push him on in his career but I can't see how he pushes us onto a title?

He'll need to master a much more influential position than full back for a start, and will then need to displace seasoned internationals from the team.

It's not a viable pathway in my opinion.
