At the end of the day poch turned dier into a solid dm
Why doesn't everybody agree that he could easily see the likes of Chadli and son playing up top?

Pato for Chelsea, Doumbia at Newcastle, Naismith at Norwich, Charlie Austin at Southampton, Benik Afobe at B'mouth, Jordan Rhodes was available too.
Arsenal can play Sanchez, Walcott or Welbeck through the middle.
Leicester have Ulloa and Okazaki.
Utd have Martial
This has the potential to be a fairly binary outcome:
- Kane stays fit and on form, and we get some of these players in the summer for a lower fee, and Levy's gamble will have massively paid off
- Kane doesn't and we potentially ruin a fairly rare opportunity at a crack at the top
Fine margins eh?
Ah, but water can flow up a hill !!

Not a bad window - offloaded one unwanted player permanently, got another off the wage books until the summer. Lost a young player who Poch didn't rate, loaned one out that Poch does rate.
As for the striker situation, we are in a bit of a catch 22 situation. Simply get a body in, and we are in danger of wasting money and having someone who will be difficult to shift (and we've been there before!), or we get someone who is good but frustrate them because Kane is and will be first choice, so they will be sat on the bench. And potentially spend tens of millions in doing that.
We have enough "options" to back up Kane, and maybe a Harrison will push on in the next couple of years and we will be glad that his route to the first team was not blocked by some jobbers who are both not good enough to play ahead of Kane but too good to not play in front of a kid.
In the end, the direction the club is currently going is excellent and while I had hoped we would get someone in, I'm glad we did not get another striker simply for the sake of it. Unlike most teams, our decision making seems to be more long term than short term, and that is how we will get ahead in the end.
Look at Utd, they have splashed money all over the place but look disjointed, lopsided, and certainly playing less than the sum of their parts.

Have I missed something or is Josh Onomah not in that list...???Excluding the loanees (as they are not eligible to be picked), there is not one player in this list that I have an issue about playing for Tottenham Hotspur: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/first-team-profiles/.

Is it because he's young/development and doesn't need to be listed? or something like that?
