(1) It's all paper talk and (2) we finished third last season so it would be mad to criticise the board. That said, if we have offered £16.5 and if they do want £17m why wouldn't you just offer the little bit more? Who, from Tottenham's point of view, is actually deciding the value of a player...
How about a bit of perspective?
Before the season we would have taken third without any doubt. As it was, even accepting the 'big four' falling off a cliff we still probably over-achieved.
Yes it would have been nice to finish second and put an end to St Tortteringham's day just as it would...
We won't know how good our position is until the result tonight. I fear though, that even if Leicester lose, we won't be able to capitalise long term because we still have three tough games where we're almost certain to drop points. Even if you discount Chelsea by assuming they will beat both us...
Totally agree except that the lure of CL and the accompanying wages means the team can get picked apart by bigger clubs. It can't be long before we hear of Alli, Dier and Kane's heads being turned never mind Vertonghen and Lloris. It's a big reason why lots of people are getting turned off...
If we could play all the games now I would agree with you. But there is no way we can win a title with Kane as our sole striker. By May he will have played 18 months without any break- it's too much to ask for him to keep going. Hopefully in January we will pick up a back up striker but...
Or to be precise until all the games have been played, the draw has been made and we hear the champions league music playing as the players come out onto the pitch. (I still remember Bayern...)
Probably right although I wonder if they had some plan that didn't come off, certainly at one point in the second half it looked like they were trying the old "Teddy special" at the corner of the box.
Hmm, not sure this reveals anything really. You could have read this two years ago and may well be reading its equivalent two years in the future. (Though I agree that Lloris looked a little reticent yesterday, not sure why).
Also what was the short corners trick all about? Not one cross...
