Chairman's message

Commitment to spend is good to hear.
I think our whingeing here and other social media gets picked up and reported to Levy. They have to, sponsors will be doing the same.

Yes, it would be mental if the social media team weren’t monitoring for sentiment.
 
The Chelski philosophy...throw enough brick against the wall something will stick eventually...........

Watch him fall out with Conte now....wont agree over a few million on someone,then we'll spend a few million on some wonder kid from Wigan.....oohhh we've done that haven't we!!

£100m sounds optimistic doesn't it? Apart from Lo Celso, who do we have that anyone would want? Gil? Dele?

Depends on how many ins and outs we'd want and how happy Conte would be with selling good squad players to fund potential upgrades.

Not in order of likelihood: Tanganga, Rodon, Sanchez, Emerson, Reguilon, Winks, Moura, Gil and Bergwijn. In addition to GLC and Ndombele.

Pick a bunch of them, 100m should be doable. But of course with a downside for some of them.

Not saying that will happen, or that it's a good idea. But it's possible.
 
Chairman Daniel Levy provides a message for supporters in our official matchday programme for today's final home match of the season against Brentford...

Dear Supporters,

This has been an immensely difficult season. We made footballing decisions over recent seasons based on ambition and a desire to bring success to our Club and they have not delivered what we had hoped. Your frustration has been understandable and all of us at the Club have shared it.

We have undertaken a thorough and rigorous review of our footballing operations. Scott Munn joins us in the summer as our new Chief Football Officer and we look forward to sharing further news with you post-season.

Today, we need to focus on finishing the season as strongly as we can and get behind Ryan Mason and Vicky Jepson and their respective teams. I want to specifically thank Ryan. Not for the first time, Ryan, who has been with us since the age of seven, who has Spurs in his blood, has taken the reins and led the team, supported by Matt Wells, Nigel Gibbs, Perry Suckling and Gianni Vio, through these last few fixtures.

Thanks also to Vicky, supported by Anton Blackwood and Ryan Hudson, who has led the Women’s team for the latter part of the season. Our Women’s team will take on Reading in an historic double-header today.

This was the season when Harry Kane made Club history, breaking Jimmy Greaves’ long-standing record and becoming the Club’s all-time leading goalscorer with number 267 in our game against Emirates Marketing Project. He then went on to become England’s leading goalscorer. Congratulations Harry. These are amazing achievements with no doubt more to come, made even more special by the fact that Harry is a graduate of our Academy.

And, in regards to the Academy this season, I also want to congratulate our Under-17s and Under-18s who won their respective League Cups with their coaches Stuart Lewis and Bradley Allen. It speaks volumes about our player development at this level. They will take to the field at half-time to enjoy a lap of honour.

Today we say a fond farewell to Lucas Moura. Lucas - we wish you well – you will forever have a place in our history for your remarkable hat-trick against Ajax which took us into the Champions League Final in 2019.

I should like to thank everyone at the Club – all our staff, across all our locations, and our players – for their dedication and hard work during what has been a busy and often challenging season.

The Men’s and Women’s players will take to the pitch after their matches to show their appreciation for your support - and I thank you too. We shall spend the period ahead of next season working relentlessly to position our Club for on-pitch success and football you will love to come and watch. Every element of the Club’s operations is geared toward delivering that.

I wish all of you and your families good health and a wonderful summer.

Yours,

Daniel

Completely. Fail this time (in terms of type of manager) and the club will lose huge amount of support IMO

At least he's recognising in the first para that the club has screwed various things up, and also recognising later the need to produce more entertaining football.

Big few days/weeks ahead for the club.

The one name which screams out as the right move is Slot

Exactly that.
Building under Poch worked great. It hit a plateaux.
We tried with "winning" managers (and Nuno) instead - something lots of fans had been asking for. It didn't work.
Back to the build and develop model that worked well under Jol, Redknapp, Poch.
That's pretty exciting. Find the next Walker, Rose, Modric, Berbatov, Bale, Lennon etc.

We might already have 3/4 of those. Excited by Gil, Porro, Spence, Skipp, Udogie.
