    Tottenham Takeover Talk

    No-one forgets this at all, but some of us can recognise it for what it is: a reductive point that ignores all the complexities.

    Fantastic! We're in full knee-jerk mode. I would expect nothing less. It's what I come here for, to jerk that knee. Disappointing as this is, it's a bad day at the office, perhaps even a reality check. If we haven't progressed much by this time next season, then I'll listen.

    Such a Spurs player - amazing in some ways, but amazingly flawed in others. I want to like him, but the nagging feeling that top clubs don't tolerate that is too much. We should try for better.

    Such a good comment I'm reposting it.

    Spurs finances report 22/23 (swissramble writeup)

    We got through covid and emerged on the other side in an incredibly strong financial position compared to other clubs. The fun is just starting. And people still have a problem... Football finances are important. They show the health of the club and its ability to push on and win trophies...

    I'm expecting prime Messi. No really, I am.

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Forest

    I'm not a Hojbjerg-hater, but his mistake was truly awful and then he immediately made another mistake. He really has that in his locker. Kulu also was surprisingly bad when he came on. But VDV, wow. What a player. We were clearly the better side, by a mile, and we made a bit of a meal of it...

    VDV is a special player. You learn nothing about a player, any player, by making comparisons to him. Dragusin looks good to me. An upgrade on what we had, for sure.

    Sevilla do what they do because they are in La Liga, and there are only two teams in contention in that league. The Premier League different. Anything can happen. We are absolutely NOT going to aim for a Sevilla model. That means becoming surrender monkeys, rolling over and dying as a club...

    His contract, not his attitude.

    No, I didn't miss that. It's just irrelevant to this situation. Dragusin is clearly very, very ambitious and isn't going to want to play second fiddle filling in for a few games a season. Is that something you missed? Lol.

    Can't see Dragusin, or any player, displacing VDV. It doesn't matter how well he plays, unless there's a massive dropoff in form VDV will come back into the team. So long term, I'm guessing Dragusin doesn't get a look in and leaves. Sorry! I like him, he looks an extremely good signing, but he's...

    I don't understand people wanting Soloman sold. I thought he looked good. My view aside, he hasn't had a chance yet and it seems like he's being poo-pooed without us having seen enough of him to make that that decision. Manor will be useful off the bench, for sure. Whether he'll accept being 7th...

    It's like having Zeus at centre back. The guy is imperious. There are three CBs who stand out in this league: Van Dijk, Saliba, and Micky. Van Dijk is on the wane, Saliba like to film kids tossing off, and Micky plays for us.

    He's definitely not as sharp or as physical as he was before his injury. He looks much more lightweight right now. He needs time.

    We are going to finish top 4. We definitely don't want a 5th CL to be available to the likes of Villa.
