    Because they're fucking morons. It'll be interesting to see what punishment he gets, if any.

    The lack of coherency in our recruitment strategy

    That's the squad. The probable first XI would feature Lloris, Dier, Davies, Son, Kane and Moura (and I'm not sure he'd be picked if we had the players to play 532 more often). So around half the first team.

    The lack of coherency in our recruitment strategy

    Kind of, but not really. He cut his teeth in Switzerland and had two years coaching at Chelsea before he went to Italy.

    The lack of coherency in our recruitment strategy

    So do most other clubs. We just focus on our own. We've actually had a quite refresh of the first XI over the last three years, and that team is battling for a top four finish. Our problem is still lack of balance and that our best players are the ones who have been at the club for a while...

    The lack of coherency in our recruitment strategy

    Wasn't that also the Summer we sold Berbatov and Keane for £50m? The main issue people fail to understand (in life, let alone football) is that money doesn't grow on trees. We can't spend what we don't have, and Levy won't extend the credit line to purchase players. He'll do so for capital...

    Let's all laugh at Tottenham Hotspur thread

    I must have said this a hundred times, but Levy won't spend money to try and push us to the next level. The only time he has spent money, against the norm, is when we trying to arrest a slide. He has never taken the extra leap of faith. For example when Redknapp first qualified for the...

    Your 1 favourite Spurs Player of all Time

    My favourite player was Teddy. My second favourite was Graham Roberts. But the best I've seen since being a Spurs fan (1981) is Hoddle. When other fans make fun of Spurs and tease us about not being a big club I point out that we've underachieved considering we've had so many great players...

    Glenn Hoddle on BT Sport Films

    He wanted to play against European competition. Had English teams not been kicked out of Europe, he may have stayed, at least for another season. But playing in another country was also on his bucket list.

    The Manager Search 2: Search Harder

    How much of that is down to the recruitment team vs what we're willing to risk on players? E.g. Grealish, Bruno Fernandes etc. All the recruitment team can realistically do is put forward players they rate. They aren't responsible for actually signing those players. Our issues go back way...

    Match Threads Arsenal Vs Spurs

    It's the midfield that is the problem. There is no protection at all. Hojbjerg is everywhere except for shielding the back four (see the second goal for example).

    I'd have played them both. If we must play 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 then for me it's Alli that needs to make way.

    Match Threads Arsenal Vs Spurs

    I personally wish with this squad he'd revert to a 4-4-2 and play Moura and Gil on the flanks. Lock up the midfield with Skipp and Hojbjerg. Kane in the "Teddy" or "VDV" role and Son up top, playing on the shoulder of the last man.

    Which he rarely does. He isn't disciplined enough for that role.
