I knew the moment we moved into the new lane that things would run completely different. It was petty obvious really. Money would run and would continue to do so. TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR LONDON

It’s why Poch was told to prioritise it during his time, with the amount of transfer activity we couldn’t stretch the squad to do both. Now, with the likes of Bale and Reggie coming in etc we might begin to have the depth and quality options to do both.

That’s why I reject any slagging of Poch, because with the tools he had at his disposal he smashed it out of the park getting top four consistently.

I was pessimistic before Bale and Reggie but the quality of those two signings changes things, certainly feels like it.

Yep. Top four is vital for so many reasons. José will get us there. Master at it. Arsenal ain’t been in the champs league for ages. Their stature is sort of OK. Tottenham is the big club in London.

When we click as in when all the players know how all the players like to operate we will “play well. We’ve got some quality attackers man. With/when the back line all singing sweetly we’ll be very hard to beat. I’ll say it again ” next season we’ll be strong strong.

They haven’t built the best stadium in the world while being in the champions league. (Only a crappy stand🌚. They are just one manager away from possible trouble. We’ll over take them soon enough. Like I said “Gerrard gonna come in and fk it all up. Maybe it would be good for klop to win the league again this season. Two prem league’s and a champions league may make him think his work is done there. Here’s hoping. VDV and sala might fancy a fresh challenge too. A lot of “might and “mays.

The Yanks want domination like they did with the Boston Red Sox to build up the global following of the brand.

That’s Klopp’s challenge now, their owners aren’t messing about, they’ve backed him properly, unlike some other owners I could mention….

There is no ceiling for them, they want winning and they pump the cash back in, win more and make even more money. It’s quite simple when you think about it.

Fenway Group are sports people, not property people and it shows…

A cup would be ‘nice’.

Another season without top table football is no good. No good for our status in the world, for the cash flow, for the new stadium and if a stadium sponsor wants in. They’re gonna want Champions League association with their brand if they’re a global brand. End of story.

Rose ain’t junk he’s just older therefore not the player he once was. Levy’s bent him over for 9 years re wages. Its the way it goes I suppose. He deserved a pay rise but no money I’m sure levy would say. He signed his contract. Business

Addiction is a powerful thing. Also clients get addicted to the “life. And the longer they’re in it.. When most from the recovery services (drugs&alcohol) are permanently housed they end up losing their places due to prison sentences (the life) any more than three months they lose their places and end up back to square one again (the streets) many prefer the streets to hostels. Who knows the answer. Oh and some are interested in improving their lives that’s why we keep at it. The streets becomes home to some. I know many with housing and still live the ” life” out there street homeless. Its a community.

Being in the Champions League is the bare minimum, it’s the way the world is now. Top 4 minimum and say the FA Cup too would be a very nice season, even the Mickey Mouse and top 4 is nice.

Both domestic cups and no top four? No thanks. Ropey League and no top four is a different scenario because the winners go into the C.L. Although it’s a very risky move to put all your eggs in that basket.

Top 4, top table football the following season and beyond. Anything else is a bonus, it’s not 1981…

Right now we have a couple of players bedding in, Bale out, a couple more to buy hopefully…but then also Alli, Rose, Foyth frozen out (whether you think Jose is right to do that is another question).

Later in the season at least we’ll have a full squad and I can’t imagine we’ll have that many more injuries/suspensions than now.

BBC Sport;
Mourinho has faced Frank Lampard four times without winning in his managerial career (D2 L2) – twice as many as he has faced any other manager without registering at least one win.

No wonder he was happy, relieved more than anything!

First half we let Chelsea have too much possession and just counter attacked but much better second half, dominated at times and deserved our goal. Reguilon at fault for their goal but very impressive otherwise and set up Lamela’s equaliser.

We owed them that one and we were better. Lamela epitomised everything Tottenham tonight. Brilliant from him. Ndombele didn’t look out of place either. He is getting better. For all their possession we gifted them the goal and they created very little. We could have had a few. A very good second half display. 5 men stood up for the penalties too. So glad that Mount missed. Struts around like he owns the place. Get back in your box and take Lampard’s cargo pants with you. Get in.

Well that was a turn up for the books. I had us odds on to get reamed this evening. Second half was much better and what joy it is to see the attacking threat coming down the left flank now as well. Love Requilon for his pace and energy and for the fact that he always looks to go forward. He is going to be a massive plus for us. Plays with such enthusiasm as well. You can see how much it means to him. Hoijberg made a big difference as well. Results like this are so good for building belief. Well done lads.
