The some reason is called experience. When does us "waiting" to address key issues in the squad every go well?No, it's just he hasn't come here yet and everyone is losing their shit for some reason.

Strange then that hitchen flew out to Milan if it was such a crazy fee, you’d think there would’ve been some kind of discussion before hand?Inter wasn't asking for a crazy fee?
Our defense won't do us proud, that's my assessment
I just don't think it works like this given the amount of credit the club has access toStarting to seem more and more like we have spent our budget and are waiting for the Kane/Hojbjerg money to come in before moving forward, which is an absolute disgrace but it wouldn’t shock me
Fantastic points mate and I feel exactly the same, fingers crossed it works out in the end.Do you ever wonder that if something is as blindingly obvious like signing a new CB and we have chosen NOT to do it, then there could be another reason?
I like to give people the benefit of the doubt - save for anyone with their email address as their username (John, I’m joking) - so would you just not think there are other things that are at play that make complete sense in that context?
Maybe I’m just super naive, but in retrospect things like this tend to make sense in the round.
Maybe not. I don’t know.
I’m afraid for the back half of last season and even in our first pre season match this year our defence have shown that they are likely to concede plenty of goals even when the opposition has relatively few chances.
and we are going to be absolutely rinsed when those sales go through as clubs know we have tons of money
baldy twat is just playing his old game of "we tried" so that he can save the millionsI guess I don’t understand why is it just VDV or Tapsoba? They’re not even particularly similar players… if neither deal can be done, then buy someone else. There’s got to be 100 CBs in Europe who fit our needs better than the ones we have now.
Good riddanceWell said and agree. When, as I expect, Kane is sold this window, I will cease to be a fan of Spurs. I will end my comparatively short fandom tenure (~12 years) because I can't continue to root for a team with demonstratively poor leadership. Everyone has to make their own choice in the matter; I choose to walk away.
Urge to win every deal when getting a quality player should be enough.The more I follow our transfer business and negotiations, the more it seems that Levy and the club‘s number one priority is to to get a good deal.
If that is the case then it explains why arguments based on team need, fit for the manager’s system, neglect for the position in previous windows and potential to be great all fall on deaf ears.
The club won’t pay 30-40 million Euros for a player that fits the above criteria… but If Van de Ven’s starting evaluation had been 50 million, but we could have got him for 40 million then he would have already have been bought.
If our success is contingent on the board, we're fucked. The only success we've had throughout the Enic years is through a proper manager. It all stems from that one person. We've had three in their tenure, Jol, Redknapp, and Poch. They succeeded despite enic, not in tandem with themDepends what you think success is. Plus the board need to play their part in bringing this success, it isn't just down to the manager.

I do understand why everyone is getting a but tetchy. We’ve had very little transfer news since the team went on tour, at least as far as incomings go.
I suspect much of our business is on hold until we can move people on, and or we broker a deal with Bayern to sell our one world class player.
