    To me the wage structure is set up well to maximise the chance that we get a next superstar or two through west I see as the most likely route. Leaves room in the transfer budget for quite a lot of highly talented signings. As well as less proven, but very good players such as VdV. If we're...

    Your standard for world bearers seems similar to mine. Pretty much the only way we've been able to get those players in the past has been by developing younger talented players or taking a chance on someone less proven. It's probably still our most likely avenue to get there. Maybe someone...

    Archie Gray

    I fully agree. But also want that player to have real playmaking qualities. Any suggestions on who you think would be a good candidate? The market seems really difficult for a role like that. If it's a choice between someone good, but not great with experience and a good profile fit or someone...

    A tribute to a great supporter

    Condolences and thanks for sharing those wonderful words about him. Never knew him of course, but with us all bring Spurs still feels connected in a way with all the experiences and feelings we've had in common over the years. Sad and heartwarming to read and think about.

    Mathys Tel

    Fully agreed. Really think he has the potential to go on to be a top class player. Good all round game with great ball striking ability is such a good profile. Had half a season to settle in now and the boost of the EL win. And I think he'll fit Frank better than he did Ange.

    Kota Takai

    Given how well Gray played at CB last season he at the very least gives us another "emergency option". Could also make it a bit easier to give a squad role to Takai or Vuskovic given that if one of them struggles to settle in we do have another option in Gray. Agreed about the asterisk for...

    Kota Takai

    Based on really limited information he seems like a great profile. Young, big, strong, but also excellent qualities on the ball. We need some short term solutions too, but really like that we're seemingly also trying to fix issues in the squad with potential long term solutions with top level...

    Transfer thread

    Years of failing to develop sufficiently good club trained players combined with some years of short term focused and relatively poor recruitment. Now we've been trying to fix that, but given UEFA regulations for B-list players in particular that takes a bit of time.

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    Imo let's not hold each other to our "worst" moments, posting in affect. For me at least is more annoying when the same points are being repeated over and over again and in threads that are nominally about other stuff. I'm sure I'm guilty of that too, again appreciate not being held to that too...

    Transfer thread

    I agree that a more flexible approach is likely to have more young players develop well. Although flexible there will be "winners and losers" with regards to fitting in, but difficult to predict who may end up worse of given that we don't really know how he'll (mostly) set us up.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    If Frank wins one that would be two successive managers winning a trophy with us... Has that happened before? Think we're building a team that can and should compete for trophies, if not this season then fairly soon. There are still holes in the squad, but window by window they've been getting...

    Bergvall too. Who seemingly can play multiple roles. And not like Sarr is a super experienced player either. Another hot prospect, sell Bissouma and the only really experienced midfielders are Bentancur, Maddison and Kulusevski? That seems thin on the experience side.

    Transfer thread

    If the last couple of seasons is repeated it will be all noise and unknown then all of a sudden very much all obvious and then done within days or a week. A lot of changes going on within the club so that may change, but I'm guessing the policy is to keep things a tight as possible.

    The "DM" thread

    That's what I thought too. Thanks. I think sometimes people underestimate the learning curve for a "new" role even if the player has the right attributes for a new role. The 6 role is very demanding and rather specific tactically. And while different to a CB role similar in that consistency in...

    Mathys Tel

    What's better for us. An attacker already in form going from 2 to a hat trick. Or an attacker struggling a bit gets a goal and perhaps gets going. Not saying I have the answer, but it's not an obvious "this is the right thing". Even disregarding that a young attacker wanting to score through a...

    Absolutely stunning potential imo. Can become a fantastic player. But perhaps struggled to really get that out consistently? If Frank thinks he has a role for him with us that suits him I think it could be a really good signing.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Agreed. should have course just be "easy" PR stuff. But hopefully a sign of what his plans are too.

    Bryan Mbeumo

    Depends on what other "fixes" can be found perhaps. If we can find solutions in other areas of need that aren't THAT expensive maybe we can splurge on Mbuemo. But if it's Mbuemo and then a couple of not quite solutions to other problems probably better to spread it out a bit more. He wasn't...

    Cristian Romero

    I just think we would probably lose more than we gain. Experience, leadership, on the ball quality... Difficult to replace even if partly replaced by players in other positions. Strengthening by selling one of your best players can work well. Signing 2-3 players to replace the one. But that...
