Doubt it actually. Don't get me wrong I'm positive that Levy at times has been the main culprit in a failed deal. But I very much doubt that he is always the only/main problem in every single deal that falls through, inclusive this one.Didn't Levy mess up a deal to offload Wanyama by pushing for an extra £1-2m when he really should've been taking any offer he could get?
A few weeks old but I still agree with a lot Paul Hawksbee says here

Fair enough, mate. I don't know any more about what goes on behind the scenes for real than anyone else, which is probably not very much!Doubt it actually.

The only lifeline or should I say stay of execution that Poch has is his 3 summer signings are now all fit. He has to drop the twats, play them and hope they hit the ground running. He can build a new era but if he continues to play the woeful out of form and once hero’s instead of Sess, TN and GLC then he can sod off.
The travel aspect is a bit confusing. I hate flying so I totally understand but northern Europe is easily accessible by boat or rail.The reported issue at the time was that Vic didn't want to fly to Belgium because he was nervous after the Sala thing, then he started asking for more money, then Brugges or whoever it was asked us to cover his extra wage and we wouldn't. Or something along those lines.
His midfield against Sheffield United was Ndombele, Lo Celso and Sissoko. They were over-run and outplayed. That's not a question of talent, it's a question of tactics.
you can’t use turnover as the measure of the quality of an achievement when it’s not related to the ability to assemble a world class squad.
It's not the only factor obviously but there's definitely a relationship between turnover and ability to assemble a world class squad. The combination of the way FFP works and the vastly inflated fees/wages flying about mean that to buy a team of world class players you either need a massive turnover like Man Utd or you need to cheat and find "creative" ways of bypassing FFP like City and PSG have tried to do.
If everyone played by the rules, the bigger turnover you have the more you are able to spend on players, which means that you have more ability to assemble a team of world class players. Obviously there's no guarantee that an expensive signing will always be a good signing, but to say they're not related at all is just wrong IMO.
Ehrm ... well perhaps not in the first half before the whistle.Not really in the first half to be honest,

So stress freeeeeeee matee!Not dropped any points this week - been a good weekend for us... stress free ahhhhhhhhh
Poch stays
Can we have international breaks every week? Asking for a friend.
Err, I do love how some interpret my posts to mean whatever is floating around in their heads already.
A transfer of Wanyama to Bruges FC, IIRC, had been set up this summer but late in the process he turned it down. He said afterwards that he wanted 'to fight for my place' in the Spurs side.Didn't Levy mess up a deal to offload Wanyama by pushing for an extra £1-2m when he really should've been taking any offer he could get? I don't know if that's actually true so don't shoot the messenger but I've heard it from multiple people now.
