    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v The Garibaldis (will Marinakis eat his own club with a cuppa?), Sat Sept 5th, City Ground, 3pm***

    A point on the road is always a decent result, but I have to admit the performance didn't fill me with confidence. Overall, it shows how much work there's left to do. We're not a poor team by any means, but everything we do is either too complicated, too slow or just a little bit off. We tend...

    Does that mean we've been collecting trash?

    Richarlison

    Taking him off the squad list probably didn't do much for the club in terms of getting a bigger fee. Now, everybody knows it's a straight choice between paying him for not playing or accepting whatever offer is on the table. Hopefully, they did it because the talks with Trabzonspor are at an...

    Richarlison

    I'm obviously not privvy to what was said behind the scene, but I really hope not including him in our squad list doesn't come to bite us in the arse. A lot of people don't seem to rate him now, but they didn't turn their noses up at the goals that kept us up last season. He's 29 and he's got...

    Mike Dean comments

    At least, now, we know why he's such a poor referee. It's really an interesting case because - I think - it goes much beyond the football sphere. It seems Western societies have become so passive that a number of people daily push the envelope further and further, just to see if there's going to...

    I'm not particularly confident for this one. I've got a feeling things are going to get worse, before they actually get better. The first five matchdays are going to be a tough ride, I fear. Hopefully, business should pick from October on.

    Tosin & Mudryk deals with Chelsea

    If you're desperately looking for an upside, I'd say either the guy is desperate for a chance to show what he can do (and literally resurrect his career) or he'll sit on his hands, pocket his Chelsea wages for five years and call it a day. In terms of motivation, it's sensible to assume he's...

    Tosin & Mudryk deals with Chelsea

    He's never going to surprise everyone to the extent of being worth 85m. If we get good performances out of him, great, but it would be nothing short of a miracle to turn him into a 85m player in nine months. Oddly enough, a good season would be a boon for Chelsea, as they'd be able to finally...

    Tosin & Mudryk deals with Chelsea

    The 85m buy clause means it's unlikely to be high-reward, though. I can't see him having a season so good that he'd suddenly be worth 20m more than Ndiaye. He's never been any good in the Premier League either, so the only reason to be optimistic is the 19 games he played under De Zerbi, five...

    Tosin & Mudryk deals with Chelsea

    I think pretty much everyone agrees on that. Maybe he was tired of waiting, maybe his first few games in a Spurs shirt made him feel he was ready or maybe he didn't feel De Zerbi would ever trust him. There's a personal/psychological aspect of transfers that we, as fans, can't really appreciate...

    Transfer thread

    No, but they cast a disappointing shadow, in a certain context - ie we lost our first two games. Financially, Tosin's deal is okay. We're likely to make a profit and considering how far down the pecking order is going to be, it's not really a problem. He looked decent at Fulham but every time I...

    Transfer thread

    No, but the first few signings gave the impression there was a clear plan: rebuild from the back, then move further up the pitch. Whatever one may think of JPVH and Robertson, they were clearly highly rated, at least by the club/manager. Same goes for Tonali or Fernandes. However, these last two...

    Transfer thread

    There's a definite lack of physicality within the squad, but that's the manager's choice apparently. I suppose Danso's been told he was considered a back-up, which is why he wants to leave. I'm not sure you can succeed with such a lightweight first XI in the Premier League, but we will soon find...

    Tosin & Mudryk deals with Chelsea

    Very disappointing from where I'm standing. Tosin never looked that good in the first place, and while I haven't seen Mudryk play or train (obviously), neither has De Zerbi. It's a shame because it completely ruins the impression left by our first deals. I don't really see what's Tosin's role in...

    Richarlison

    I think it shows how much success changes a fanbase. Before Champions League became a regular fixture for Spurs, we used to thank a player for their services, as long as they didn't act like dingdongs. For all his flaws, Richarlison's commitment was never in doubt. I believe (but it's just my...
