Is Daniel Levy’s alleged masterplan… actually a master-flan?

By Joe Fish -

Daniel Levy is reportedly planning to go bargain shopping in Ligue 1 for new Tottenham signings this summer.

Football Insider understands that Levy anticipates the French market to be the major league most affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, not least because the government has suspended football until September.

This uncertainty over a restart date could lead players to look elsewhere and the clubs will be under financial pressure to sell.

According to Football Insider, Levy is hoping to exploit this by picking up some players for cheap to help out Jose Mourinho. Monaco youngster Benoit Badiashile is apparently one player in his sights.

I have no problem with this if we are targetting good players that Mourinho wants, who happen to now be affordable because of the state of the market.

What we don’t want to be doing is signing sub-standard players just because that’s who we can afford. We’ve seen with N’jie and Nkoudou how this can backfire and cost us more money in the long run.

Unless of course, it is Luis Campos identifying the players…

Both equally infuriated me. Hard to pick. Sugar treated sheringham bad too (the real reason he left for manure). Loved El Tel and 91.. Though I dont think terry would have lasted 6 years under levy like poch did they would have clashed… Poch has fa on venables but he is still young for a manager he has time on his side. I’m sure he will end his career with honours. Venables career played out a long time ago.

What was worse. Sugar sacking Venables or levy sacking poch? Poch had fck all on Venables. God knows why people keep banging on about the fkin loser. Venables with pochs squads woulda won a fkin quad.

Capow wasn’t a bad player.

Who recommended those guys? Hope he is no
longer working for the club. French League has not been a happy hunting ground for us, Hugo aside, Stambouli, Capoue, N’jie, N’Koudou, Aurier, there are question marks against Lucas Moura and Sissoko even allowing for the latter’s improvement.

Levy acolytes say that’s because poch was unable to polish diamonds.

Because Clinton Cards and No’Cluedo worked out so well.
