Any fan who boos at our first home game should be banned for life.
That comment ...I think this explains it all. Our targets were a bit different than expected.

If there a major outgoings, then we can panic!!Then just three short weeks of panic about who we might sell abroad.

I mean tiger... this is unprecedented levels of incompetence. No outgoings or incomings, only team in all of premier league and champions league. Fans have every right to be upset. I don't understand you stance. Not a single other fan base would fault Spurs fans for being upset. They would all be equally as frustrated!It will be humiliating if our fans protest at our opening game in the new stadium because we didn't make a signing. People are bothered now that we're a laughing stock because we haven't signed anyone.
And unfortunately will be playing fairly often until we can find a suiter willing to come in for him. But the solution to that certainly isn't to make another Sissoko-style desperation signing.All the talk about youth is all well and good, but I still think Sissoko will be playing there pretty regularly this season. Which is incredibly frustrating.
Thanks, Daniel.This is so boring.
We're the 11th most valuable, and it's mainly based on our assets (high value players, high value new stadium, debts owed to us by others), and a part of that is our liquid but only a part. And our liquid is far less than those sides who each have over a decade worth of CL and, in some cases, over 2 decades. We may now be getting a big slice of TV money, but we are massively playing catch up. Then factor in that our global brand still generates a fraction of all the other top 6.
As for Levy's salary being doubled, actually no, he just received piled up bonuses from previous years on top of his basic. And oh, shock horror, MD of giant international corporation is paid a lot.
We have money, the clubs who are after players who are good enough for us have much more money, the players going for fees that are in our current ball park are nowhere near good enough for us. There doesn't seem to be a middle ground, or if there is it's only in a few circumstances. Grealish might have represented that, it turned out not. Shaquiri might have represented that (though lord knows what his salary is when the fee was so cheap), but then we are overstocked with AMs who are at least as good if not better and mcuh more in tune with Pochettino's work rate requirements.
Just because Mr Bob owns a house worth £300,000, he still needs to have an income (not just turnover) which allows him to spend money on food. He can't offer Tesco a flower from his garden in return for a piece of bread, it doesn't work like that. Just because we are valued very highly and we are balance sheet rich, it in no way means we are cash rich and the fact that nobody gets this is deeply, deeply upsetting.
Beyond a miracle, do not expect anything. That is what I am hearing from more than 2 of my connects ??...??????...Legless
You don't fucking boo at the opening of a new stadium, remember, the fans will be here long after Levy is gone, you'll look a right **** booing into thin air because the board pissed you off. You're there for the product on the field.I mean tiger... this is unprecedented levels of incompetence. No outgoings or incomings, only team in all of premier league and champions league. Fans have every right to be upset. I don't understand you stance. Not a single other fan base would fault Spurs fans for being upset. They would all be equally as frustrated!
37 minutes later...I'd give it 30-40 minutes until we officially hear from Herc that we're not going to be signing anyone

No, because booing our own side is despicable in any circumstances.because they disagree with you?
Some cynics, might say that levy already has prepped Cullen on the next bout of excuses for future windowsLooks like Janssen staying.
As it stands we've 1 to many foreign players for the PL squad, and 3 too may for the CL.
Presumably Nkoudou will get a loan somewhere, and one of Llorente or Jansen will go on the 31st.
If you're looking for positives, at least then we'd be in slightly less of a mess for future windows.
No one is booing the side, jesus christ.No, because booing our own side is despicable in any circumstances.
And they don't disagree with me by the way, I fully agree that this window is disappointed and I have concerns about the season ahead. I'm just not desperate about it as I still think we'll have a good season, play good football, challenge near the top and I'm fucking excited about that.
Didn't see that coming with an hour left !Beyond a miracle, do not expect anything. That is what I am hearing from more than 2 of my connects ??...??????...Legless
And if it does mean we can give some more young players a chance then I'm excited for that too. One thing I really do miss about the Europa is seeing those players desperate for a chance show what they can do.No, because booing our own side is despicable in any circumstances.

Thanks, Daniel.
Where this argument falls flat on its face is when you look at many clubs beneath us in terms of stature, Champions League football, Domestic League, etc. that spend millions each transfer window in attempting to strengthen their squad and somehow continue to operate.
Levy's fucked it, will probably make it even worse with a statementBeyond a miracle, do not expect anything. That is what I am hearing from more than 2 of my connects ??...??????...Legless
