Spurs don't need transfers, they have Pochettino

Philosophy. No big football club is without one these days. For most of them, it really just consists of buying all the best players in sight and passing it off as the work of coaching genius.

I wish all the naysayers on the ITK thread would read this.

They'd just dismiss it before going off on another rant.

If teams that spent the most finished bottom up every season the fucking idiot press/media would still spend the whole summer jizzing their pants and putting them as title favourites.

Another sensible and well reasoned article ~ my long lost faith in 'journos' is returning.

Just as my faith in MP and MR Levy is wavering, along comes this article to restore my it. Also to remind me that our achievements, even without trophies, is greater than the bought success of others.

Give me THFC club over the so called top clubs any day. I least I can be proud of our achievements.

When you look at the actual results, points won and goal difference over the last two seasons, wholesale changes were never going to be key.

Dan Kilpatrick said today that the first eleven pick themselves and trying to add quality to the team with players who will start on the bench is not easy.

In my opinion why buy players for the sake of it who are on par with what we already have?

I read ITK on many Spurs websites (some stuff copied and pasted from SC ITK) that quite simply defy all logic, but the frenzy builds up when other teams buy big, not because they want to but because they have to.

We are not in that category, we already have our Lukaku, our Walker and our Wanyama and Dele. Others teams are aspiring to try and buy our equivalent.

Man Ure for one spent three hundred and fifty million last season and still finished sixth.

Next season should hold no fear for Spurs fans if no signings are made, winning ten of our last eleven games is proof enough for me.

Agree on 1st eleven. But that is not enough. We need a 1st 18 when playing for top 4 and Champs League. Why do you think Chelscum have spent so much in the window? And they are not finished.

We must buy three quality players to compete.

So, let me get this straight: last season we managed to embarrass ourselves yet again in Europe, but were also good enough to win the second place trophy at the PL without actually challenging Chelsea for the title, and from this you guys are concluding that we don't need to make any quality signings to be successful next season?

This is total BS. Pochetino is obviously a good coach, but he won't be able to achieve anything special unless Levy can find a way to provide him with a deeper and more reliable squad. And don't kid yourselves guys, last season wasn't all that special.
