I was just back in the UK and fortunate to be able to attend three games, Utd and Arse at Wembley and The Scousers away. I was mighty impressed by all that I saw, and the feeling around the club. The development of our club from the point I gave up my season ticket in 2003 has been remarkable. We are known across Europe as a club on the up. I have a absolutely no complaints about Daniel Levy's stewardship of our club. I think he has done a brilliant job. When I look at what we had to sit through under Alan Sugar I cant believe how far we have come.
I'd take both of those over David Sullivan!The best thing that could be said about Alan Sugar is that he wasn't Robert Maxwell. I still shiver a bit inside when I think about those times.
Brilliant man for our club.
You're a bloody good luck charm, you should go back and watch Spurs more often!
I just read that we have the biggest difference between squad value and squad expenditure. It's by a huge margin too, no one else even comes close.

I don't think there is a team out there that would pay that valuation for any of those players.I’d say in the current market -
Kane = 300 mill
Alli = 180 mill
Eriksen = 180 mill
Lloris = 100 mill
Dembele = 75 mill (injuries the main reason)
Toby = 90 mill (injuries, etc)
Jan = 75 mill (age - if he was 25, 150!!!)
Davo = 75 (and growing)
And clubs thought Daniel would be hard to deal with hahaha! Fact is, no-one can afford our stars!

I love Daniel Levy, Daniel Levy loves me....Someone on Reddit commented we should sing "one Daniel Levy" when the stadium opens, would be a nice touch.
Not surprised at all.
- Lloris, Eriksen, Dele, Dembele, Toby, Jan, Rose, Wanyama, even Son all cost relative peanuts vs. what they would cost today
- Then you have Kane as the freebie
- And even when you think we spent big (Sanchez), 6 months later Pool spends $75M on VVD.
I never worry about DL & money management.

All together now....
Kudos also to @milo who's been saying something like this for years. No wonder so many of our squad are happy to sign contract extensions.Interesting part from the THST meeting
Talk turned to retention of players amid paper talk of contract negotiations and wage caps.
DL felt that Mauricio Pochettino is the best manager in all the time he has been at Tottenham. They see eye to eye in terms of strategy. No player would be sold that MP wanted to stay.
PH mentioned the bonus payments, also. It was felt the bonus structure and incentives should also be considered when discussing players wages as they comprised a significant part of the monies and are the most generous of any club in the Premier League.
I'm not surprised to hear this but happy that it has been said.
