Pal, I don't need your condolences, I'm extremely happy with my life and memory. God, I even remember the years of Christian Gross. In a few years when you grow up and experience more of life you will soon see how rosy those rose tinted glasses really were.
The only way Poch would not be envious of Liverpool's window is if he was not a winner. They have gone out and shown great ambition and as a consequence made life more difficult for themselves as it will raise expectations. Hats off to them.
At least some people are capable of criticism without descending into a fit of hysteria. I applaud you American.After letting it all cool off, I’m not so much angry as I am dissapointed. The whole thing is really interesting, as it’s never been done before in football. Similarly, you rarely see teams remain the same in professional sports, year-to-year. The only dissapointment is that our squad wasn’t strong enough to compete with City for a title challenge last year, and barring some damn good development this year, and utlilizing the team’s unity, I don’t see it as good enough still. That said, I’m hoping we can still hold out on top 4. COYS.

The irony of your post being that people with a different opinion to you, you dismiss as raging and crybabies which is hyperbole in itself.
Weren’t they under FFP last year, brought 0 players in. And still won more than the year before that?Just look at Athletico Madrid transfer operations vs Spurs.... that’s how a top 3 club operates in the transfer window. Levy is still stuck in 5 season ago. Utterly shit window, can’t even pull of Grealish says so much about Spurs. Disgraceful.
Thanks for posting. A good article and a reasonable person even if I disagree with him on some points.
There are other possible reasons beyond the stadium project for not spending. These reasons are in the public domain.But if that's the case Flash, the Club needs to be honest and tell us. Instead this is the communique we (via the THST) received:
The Club engaged Rothschild to secure the funding for the new stadium.
The Club announced on 31 May 2017 the completion of the bank debt financing for the new stadium with a consortium of banks involving Bank of America Merrill Lynch International Limited, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and HSBC Bank plc.
Matthew Collecott, director of finance and operations at Tottenham, assured us: "This is not going to touch the football, these are very separate budgets."
It’s irrelevant anyway. Levy told the supporter’s trust that there was money set side for transfers that was not impacted by the various building projects.I like reading how our business is affected by the cost of us building a stadium went up to £1bn, when in fact that £1bn includes those apartments and the hotel etc. Makes me feel great that possible frugality is in essence due to us paying to build something that has nothing to do with Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.
i was trying to be clever. not sure it worked.Was that a clever play on words or a genuine typo?

There's no way that liverpools window should be seen as negative for taking a risk, remember the words plastered all over our stadium(s) "To Dare is to Do"
Barça won't bid for Eriksen. Levy wouldn't even respond to a 75m bid.Barcelona wouldn’t bid for Eriksen, Levy wouldn’t accept a huge profit on a player, or Eriksen wouldn’t want to play for Barcelona? Which one do you doubt?

Yeah, that Real Madrid team doesn't cross at all...Yeah, I don't buy any of the Kepa will struggle with premier league crosses™ either. I never said the same for LLoris so I'd be being bias if I felt that towards Chelsea and Pools keepers.
