I know people say that time is precious but I really want it to be Thursday at around 6pm already. Such a ridiculously all over the place window

I agree completely. Let's be honest 95% of Tottenham fans knew Sissoko was shit so he wasn't exactly a gamble, just a pretty poor signing under the circumstances.
They dared to bring in shit in hope he'd come good yet refuse to dare to bring in quality in case he turns out shit. They've got it all backwards this brave malarkey
Many thought Llorente was another pony singing as well. Neither can now be shifted
Last I heard he was on the high road having a coffee ??Is martial dead or alive that is the question??
So dead by now thenLast I heard he was on the high road having a coffee ??
I walk these streets, a loaded 6 string on my back, and I play for keeps cos I might not make it back.......wanted, dead or alive....sorry, the Jovi in me escaped!
Of course Levy will get credit, it's what most of us are after. Being resigned to losing Toby, getting Martial is a bit of a coup really.Agree about the lack of clarity on events . If they are prepared to throw Martial into the deal for Toby surely some credit should go to Levy for it .
Just me then!!In fairness at the time the general view was that he was a very smart signing as Kane backup

Premier League clubs have so far spent £1b (billion) pounds this summer, but it's "difficult".
My arse.
At the end of the day, according to ITK it seems like Levy is playing chicken with some of the biggest clubs in world football. Isn't that what we all wanted? To stop being bent over by the elite?
I'll be honest, I saw the logic in signing Llorente with Janssen being so limited as a player in the Premier League and with Llorentes goal scoring for Swansea the year before and his pedigree.
What still baffles me is how we didn't identify that most of his threat comes from crosses and aerial battles yet when he came off the bench or played we used him in a different type of style. I love our footballing philosophy under Pochettino but found our use of him baffling. Possibly he was another Levy special. Either that or Poch got his scouting wrong
Levy is not a billionaire FYI. He and family have/had about 29% of ENIC which owns 90+% of Spurs. I imagine he has some other stuff but this will be the vast majority of his wealth. So at most he is worth a few hundred million and that will be relatively recent based on the increase in the value of THFC.In terms of owning a football club, Levy is the only billionaire like that compared to the other top 3/4 clubs. Explains why we're the only ones without titles since Levy took over
With respect, Crokey, I'm not sure that statement is entirely accurate: would Villa and Palace really be classed as "some of the biggest clubs in world football?" United; absolutely. But surely selling them Toby and not including Martial in the deal would constitute the very epitome of "being bent over by the elite". Wouldn't you agree mate?At the end of the day, according to ITK it seems like Levy is playing chicken with some of the biggest clubs in world football. Isn't that what we all wanted?

Joe Lewis is a billionaire though

Agree with you . There are few folk that would do just that though and not wait for the quality!
