It's why he met up with SAF, to learn how to build a dynasty. I do wonder about Shaw being given a contract extension and Martial not being sold as possible signs that MP is on the way there.

He'll take Dele, Harry, Christian and probably Sissoko with him ... It's not like I didn't tell you ...
Please do expound, because anyone can know the above from reading the press. Do you have information to the effect that MP will be leaving if DL doesn't get him what he wants? I get the impression that in the summer DL took his eyes off the ball due to the issues with the stadium.

So, is your premise that he isn't going, or that why are we so bothered?

I'm caught between the two at the moment. I want to know which side to back and then fit in with the in crowd.

Right ok my bad yes I see what he means now.
Or are you still pining after former managers?
No, building a dynasty here.

Reading this thread makes me fully understand how media outlets like Talk sport and Sky Sports News make so much money and continue to grow. People are in a continual loop of meltdown over the pending crisis(es) and we don't seem to learn...ever.
Look at this situation logically and with an appreciation of Levy and Poch being nothing more than human beings working for Spurs as a football club. Levy is the chairman, he's trying to safeguard the financial wellbeing of the club. We've just overspent ridiculously on a stadium that we'restill not playing in and at the same time paying rent to Wembley for our game time there. We also have a couple of players that are not contributing to the team and that we're trying to sell , if reports are to be believed are costing the club close to £10m a year. He obviously wants a successful team as anyone would. Poch is the manager, he wants to bring in specific players to improve the team, very specific players. He will be measured by the success of the team on the pitch therefore he will apply pressure to Levy to get in those players.
The result will be there will be a compromise of some sort and the two will continue as normal. It's nothing to piss ourselves about.
Same thing happens with every manager in every club in the world

That's an excellent point. Look at Lopetegui, he's trying to change the style of play of the team, they are 2 points behind the league leaders and yet he's a game away from the sack (and he didn't get his preferred transfer options). I think Poch going to them now would be disastrous for his career. He'd end up like AVB or Ramos managing in some eastern european league thinking what if.
tend to think that neither Real Madrid or Utd are the right two clubs for Poch.
If Simeone left AM I could 100% since him being interested in that job - the right culture for him
IF Neymar AND Tuchal left PSG, that would be a draw.....his old club and the ability to rebuild would be interesting.

"We also have a couple of players that are not contributing to the team and that we're trying to sell , if reports are to be believed are costing the club close to £10m a year."
That being the case, I hope that we are realistic about what we are selling them for as it seems pointless holding out for a higher transfer fee as their value will be steadily diminishing but they will doubtless still be picking up the same wages.
Yes, I agree that Levy is looking out for the interests of the club but eventually, if he doesn't start backing Poch in the transfer market so that he can achieve more than just top 4 then I wouldn't blame him for casting his eye around at other clubs. I'm not going to get stressed every time a big club is looking for a new manager though - there is f all we can do about it.
My basic state of mind at the moment.

I really can't see much changing with regard to the transfer budget in the short term.

Have to say I really hope Poch doesn't turn himself into one of these miserable, prickly managers that can't get through an interview without belittling the journalist. Its quite boring.
Sometimes you have to do that, because the journalists often ask inane questions or ones with an agenda.

If Poch leaves due to Levy’s tight arse ways, will the BSoDL turn? Will the PR machine yawn into action to paint Poch as unreasonably demanding?
Of course BBLG will still be here fighting the fires and pleading with everyone to ‘give Warnock a season with his players before judging him’...
