Previously I could understand this statement, but now? One week after Bale and Reguilon? Ndombele last year? Mourinho even? Please piss off with this shit.
You've been told Bale and Reguilion were both spur of the moment - the central defender and striker have been on a to do list it seems for Mourinho January/this window open. Please continue to be rude though, I'm all for this.

And you know this from your financial briefings from the club?
I dont think think its a financial thing as much as its a numbers thing if we're able to offer 30m for a player. We have a bloated squad with Rose, Foyth, Serge, CCV, Sissoko, Lucas & Lamela all needing to be moved on. I read it that any money we get from that will go on top of that 30m. We've already left Rose off the first team and left Foyth off of Europa due to the numbers issue. Plus, we arent helped out by Davies being HG in one but not the other.

Oh actually fuck off. A week ago we signed Reguilon for nearly £30m and fucking Gareth Bale. We signed Hojbjerg and Doherty - two priority positions - before the season started. I know people don't like Levy and never will but don't act we haven't done very well this window. Of course we still need to get a striker but I can't be fucked for people moaning about the window and forgetting about everything else if we don't sign Skriniar.
have you forgotten the scenes when we announced bale and reguilon later than the scousers announced thiago ?

This transfer window sucks until we sign Messi.

There’s a thread on here called Identity v Success, it seems some posters have a weird sense of entitlement when it comes to Tottenham.
I’m not actually sure what they expect from the club ?‍♂️

So the two players Mourinho clearly earmarked at the beginning of this window (along side full back and central Midfielder) and we're still no closer to those players. One would clearly look to improve the starting 11 and the other improves the glaring hole in the squad for nearly the last two seasons.

It's amazing how people keep telling me to fuck off yet we've had ITK via the Goat and Ali Gold as well telling us that Mourinho has been vocal about getting this sorted.

I'll be over joyed if Skriniar and one of the multitude of strikers we've been linked with happen but right now, it doesn't feel close and we've gone from names to 'we'll get X, Y, Z' but the names seem to either be missing or dwindling. Have at it, but it's the fucking same.
I don't accept that a starting CB was a huge priority at the start of the window. The only target we knew about until 2 weeks ago was Kim-Min Jae, who would clearly have been 4th/5th choice at first, and the reliable journos have consistently said that a CB was only a possibility.

Ah, not the 31st of July for Skriniar then?

But you’re reacting so flippantly after one “negative” news story after story upon story of us making a genuine effort to get this deal done. It’s ridiculous to try and have a dig at the board after we’ve had the summer we’ve had with a week still remaining. It reeks of an agenda and its tiresome, particularly when Levy has done excellently so far.

People are telling you to fuck off because you insisted on posting a throwaway comment in anger against Levy because some fucking Italian sky sports reporter said a deal for Skriniar might not be as close as we thing. Then again it might all be bullshit.

Fair enough making comments like that after the window closes, but right now look at the signings we've made and get a shitting grip.

When we sign the centre back and the striker I'll be over joyed.

You can't say what you did when the window isn't even over? We signed priority positions in Doherty and Hojbjerg. But sure there is always an issue with Levy isn't there? Fucking hell. The hate towards him is insane. No matter what he does he'll be hated. How about waiting until the end of the window before bringing such statements.

We've heard extremely positive things but literally one source saying otherwise and we're in meltdown territory?
Meltdown? I'd say it's pragmatism considering we have been here multiple times. Once the deal is concluded I'll be more than happy.

Hate?

Who is the one having a meltdown here? Some of you need to settle down. What have I said that's so wrong?

That was, until recently, believed to merely be an attempt by Inter to sign Ndombele and not something we were particularly receptive to.
Ah ok, but we were looking for a centre back of some quality rather than the Korean guy, hence the links to Dias, which means it's clearly been something on the to do list of Mourinho?

To be expected, as ever - people sat on a branch waiting for some opportunity from any tenuous source to complain about how 'typical' something is.

Why though, it's still a link, nothing has been agreed. Why should I 'Fuck off' for pointing out the fucking obvious?
