Mauricio Pochettino’s confidente Guillem Balague has provided one hell of an insight to the situation at Tottenham Hotsour Football Club.
If Guillem isn’t In The Know, who the flip is?!
“I think what he’s trying to tell everybody, the media, the fans, the president, the players – ‘On the 2nd of June, something new is going to start here.’ That means you may get it right or wrong in the market but it’ll be big names that will have to disappear. That’s it.”

The Levyologists bristle at every cold truth that this blog publishes, however that is their fault for being thick, not mine for being embarrassingly wise in comparison.
The Carling Cup winning side bailed at lightening speed in 2008, so why would Ballague be wide of the mark in suggesting that history is likely to repeat itself?
