I agree, nobody should have to listen to that cringeworthy shit. But I had to listen to it.

I see they've got rid of Chiriches today; punted him out to Napoli for an "undisclosed fee". Riight. Probably had to pay the Neapolitans (lovely ice cream, by the way!) to take him off their hands. So that's Dawson, Kaboul and now Chiriches offloaded in the last year or so. Just need to get shut of Walker now, and they might stop letting in so many soft goals. All those players were/are liabilities.

I agree. Trippier and Alderweireld make them really, really better in defence (at least on paper surely). Smart dealings by Pochettino and Levy so far, although having Mason and Bentaleb as CMs seems very lightweight (as admirable their policy of playing own youth players is).I see they've got rid of Chiriches today; punted him out to Napoli for an "undisclosed fee".

Trippier is still relatively unproven in the PL; 1 season with a side that ended up getting relegated. It's a big step up to plying in a team with aspirations of qualifying for the Europa League.I agree. Trippier and Alderweireld make them really, really better in defence (at least on paper surely).

I'm in the minority obviously but I thought Chiriches was a good player. Think spurs will regret letting him leave.I see they've got rid of Chiriches today; punted him out to Napoli for an "undisclosed fee". Riight.

I dunno mate, he was pretty dreadful to be honest. He was really good on the ball (as like most of our defenders) but was so sloppy defending it was a joke. He made kyle walker and rose look world class defending at times. I think he will do well abroad where he has more time on the ball and improve his confidence. There was one game where he conceded a last minute penalty in the Europa and started laughing,that was enough to put me off.

As usual I hope they manage to break into the top four this year at the expense of the scum or Arse, wonder if that Alli player will be able to break into their ranks, he seems a very appealing prospect.
I don't think we will but it would be nice!! He looked good yesterday but I don't read too much into friendlies. Anybody that has seen him play thinks he is brilliant and very mature for his age. I'm more excited to see Pritchard but most Spurs fans are seem to be wanting to see Alli more. It's exiting to have so many youngsters across the middle of the park. Bentaleb, Eriksen, Mason, Pritchard, Townsend, Lamela, Alli. Carroll could be in there too but don't think we'll see too much of him

This is the third time we've gone down the Director Of Football route. It's always been hit and miss. I really loved Arnesen and think that got the ball rolling for us until Chelsea came sniffing. Commoli was a mixed bag, for every brilliant signing (Berbatov, Modric, Bale) there were players like Ghaly, Bent, Bentley etc. Baldini has signed some potential but signed some atrocious players as well. Jol & AVB didn't like either of the DOF's at the club and I don't think MP is all that keen on Baldini, but won't complain if we keep getting youngsters in. I still think he was pissed off with Levy for not bringing in Schnerderlin last season, just like AVB was pissed off we didn't build his team around Moutinho either
