    Have you watched much of him?

    Steve Hitchen

    Yes, correct. It was summer 2019 that Spurs were in for Fernandes. We agreed terms with the player but didn't meet Sporting's transfer fee demands.... Or more pertinently Sporting would not agree to what was described by them as a 'difficult' deal structure. We then switched interest to Lo...

    Our chance to sign him was the window before Man Utd were in for him.

    Alejo Véliz

    Veliz is nowhere near ready for PL football. If you factor in the fact that Richarlison is injured for about 50% of the time that means we'd have needed to have been starting Veliz in about 50% of the games if we didn't have Solanke. I would've been mortified if we'd gone into this season with...

    Don't think this is true. Lewis' affiliated companies did purchase some of the land around the stadium from the club at market rate (though that was market rate pre-planning gain). That does mean the planning risk is then theirs instead of THFC's however.

    Pretty sure it wasn't a loan. It was a liquidity injection.

    ENIC

    I think his salary puts him firmly in the top half of FTSE100 CEO level. I'm not convinced many FTSE100 companies would hire him as CEO. Though I do think Lewis gets good value out of Levy's £3.3m salary in terms of increasing his personal wealth level. I will say though that both Lewis and...

    Every business owner makes that decision based on what the best way is to grow their wealth. If Levy and Lewis had taken money out of this business then it is extremely likely that their asset would now be worth less and their overall wealth would've grown by less as a result.

    Not this again.... One can take money out of a business via dividends or choose to reinvest profits into the business to grow the asset value. Often (especially during a growth phase) the latter results in a better financial return for a business owner. I have certainly never seen it as me...

    The transfer thread

    That manager took us somewhere we could barely dream of. Not a single one of us thought we could win the title the year before Leicester won it. I think even the most optimistic of us on here were hoping for 4th and champions league. Don't try to rewrite history.

    Another £100m 18 months or so ago.

    ENIC

    You have no idea what any of the other executives are being paid by organisations outside of the football club, just as you have no idea what Lev is being paid by ENIC/Tavistock/whoever else. The only facts we know are that Levy has consistently been the highest or second highest paid director...

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Far more calls for him to remain if I recall correctly (especially from the more sensible posters). Also if Levy is letting social media dictate his decision making then we're in a really bad place (and maybe that does explain some of the decisioning over the past umpteen years?)

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Sorry but that just isn't the case. It wasn't true for Jol, or Redknapp or Pochettino or Sherwood. When Nuno went the calls were Levy/ENIC out and not Nuno out. Even at the point that Mourinho went (should've been significantly earlier for him) there wasn't any unrest from the fans as we...

    ENIC

    I'm not convinced that is true. We've always operated towards the bottom end of wage to turnover ratios in the PL.

    Pedro Porro

    Johnson's job under Ange is to defend against his direct opponent (i.e. the opposing left back). He comes back to defend when the opposing fullback pushes up. If the opposing wide forward cuts back and opposing full back continues to push on ahead of him then Porro will pass the opposing...

    Could he?!?

    Timo Werner

    Because he does what Ange wants in terms of staying wide, stretching the pitch and also playing on the line of their defence and looking to get in behind from balls over the top or between the opponents centre back and full back.

    Lucas Bergvall

    In two or three years' time these three could be our starting midfield three.

    Timo Werner

    The crazy thing is that if we could just somehow give him that confidence then he would be amazing. The rest of what he does off the ball gets him into so many great positions to score or assist, more so than anyone else in the team.
