There's not much to shout about at the moment, if anything we're treading water. Next window will be massive for us. Will it be enough though?
Our recruitment has been a shambles admittedly but do you not feel we have specific targets in mind to fill those holes? I'm not holding out much hope for landing them though with the results we've seen over the past week or two.Doubt it, we're years off, and now if we finish where I suspect were heading, it will be almost impossible to get in some of the types/standards of players we need.
We looks an absolute mess.
You have to question why it is a player like Lo Celso can be lauded for his performances for Argentina and now at his loan club yet apparently cannot produce at the same level in a Spurs shirt. Ditto with the other two you mention. Just confirms to me that there is something going on in the background at our club which is acting like a cancer and needs cutting out.Typical; N'dombele was outstanding for Lyon in their win, Lo Celso so the same (but a draw against Real Madrid...and Gil has already impressed so much that they're desperate to extend his loan and keep him in Valencia.
And after the pile of shite I had to watch yesterday I would have begged all three o be used. Even they at their worst are better than we now have.
Good point Matic.....I probably won't be popular for saying so but the 'Come On You Spuuuurs' chant is a real dirge which isn't likely to inspire or gee up anyone. We need to hear more of the upbeat songs like the Dele one and the old 'Nice One Cyril' which has been adapted to fit Sonny.What is very evident is Spurs fans also have to curb their expectations. I've lost count of how many times I've heard people say Kulusevski is not at the level we need. I don't think some people realise how far we have fallen in such a short time. Kulusevski is an absolute coup for our club! We saw yesterday that he has more creativity in his little toe than anyone else we have. Bentancur the same.
The fans need to direct their anger at Levy and Lewis. Levy is the main reason we are where we are now. His appalling decision making in recent years really has been catastrophic. Lewis is just a soulless blood-sucker. The fans cannot keep dragging the team down. Yes, the mistakes are frustrating, but we have a squad filled with players who have lacked confidence for years... will booing them help?
"But I pay good money to see th... blah blah blah."
That is your choice and surely a better way to spend your time would be to have some fun singing, chanting and trying to lift the team? How many of our current team have their own songs for example?
Out of the current squad I think Lloris, Romero, Bentancur, Skipp, Kulusevski, Son and Kane are of a quality I would class as 'top 4'.
Reguilon, Dier, Hojbjerg, Winks, Lucas, Tanganga and Bergwijn are of a top 10 quality, most of the time, with capabilities of performing at a top 4 level - but rarely show it. Out of all of them, I think Bergwijn could benefit the most under Conte.
Sanchez, Davies and Doherty are simply not able to reach top 4 level any more. They may have the odd game where they play a blinder but they are mid-table quality.
I refuse to make judgement on Royal, Rodon, Gollini or Sessegnon yet. I think Royal is young and its only his first season in the PL. I've seen plenty of players arrive and look like total arse but suddenly look loads better in their second season. Gollini has hardly played and I don't like to judge players unless they have a run of games. Rodon hasnt been given a chance and he must be terrible in training if he cannot get in ahead of Sanchez or Davies at the moment. Sessegnon is still young, has had horrible injury issues and needs regular game time. There is definitely a player there, but the club are failing him at the moment.
