So you rather have lots of cloggers but good depth and no real quality resulting in eternal just-about Top 4 frustration because we have zero quality in the final third?

Seems the normal type of quote from you !!!!. This is a site for expressing opinions, ours are different, is there a need to be sarcastic ???
My thoughts exactly. You've phrased it better than I could ever have hoped to.

That's a crock of brick if I ever heard it. Do United buy all their players from other Champion's League clubs?
Tevez from West Ham? Jones from Blackburn? Smalling from Fulham? Valencia from Wigan?
You buy your players from wherever they are available.
I'd rather a few more Bales from Southampton or Kabouls from Portsmouth than Dos Santos from Barcelona and Adebayor from Emirates Marketing Project.
No need - this eternal Levy apologism and apparent near bankruptcy we seem to face every transfer window excuse can only stretch so much
I suppose some would be happy stock-pile 'decent' players and sell our stars for massive profit while we play FC Videoton in the Europa League
What are your aspirations as a fan?

Well said. =D>
They dont.......but they do buy quality................Spurs buy, stock to sell.
Big clubs build teams, Spurs build their bank balance.
Near bankruptcy? No
Do we have the kind of money we all wish we did? No
Can we realistically sign any player we want? No
Has Levy done extremely well to drag this club from eternal mid table mediocrity/occasional flirt with relegation into top 4 contenders without spending sugar daddy money or saddling the club with debt? Yes

How do we hope to make money from players if they aren't quality?
And where is this bank balance of which you speak? The latest accounts did not show any significant cash reserves.

It's like making a cake. If you make a nice cake, put icing on it and find you can't get a cherry to put on top, does that make it a brick cake?

I suppose that if I'm allergic to cake, but love cherries, maybe?
Again - a massive pro-DL spin
Do you know what kind of money we have available for transfers?
Do you think we need to spend 30m min. to sign quality players?
Do you think we have addressed squad imbalance / quality adequately since 2010?
Do you think our scouting network is adequate or anywhere near achieving its objectives?

To be fair it would have been more apt if it was 'does that make him a brick baker?'.

Approximately, you can make educated guesses from the financial accounts.
No, but we did sign 30m worth of quality players last summer. 10m Lloris, 10m Vert, 15m Dembele, 6m Sig (not sure on exact numbers).
Yes.
I would say yes. We keep getting quality players at bargain prices.

United are the ones making huge profits. How much of the Ronaldo transfer fee was reinvested in the club.
It isn't easy to build a team when players want to leave to further their bank balance.
For what its worth Tottenham and United have had pretty much the same net spend over the last 8 seasons.
Yep.....because we've sold ALL our best players over the past 5-10 years. Couldn't wait to get rid of them, could we?

Looking at the remaining fixtures, I would say that it's out of us and Chelsea for top 4, not Arsenal. Chelsea have some tough fixtures and Rafa will prioritise the EL. I think anything from the City game will be a bonus, but our Chelsea game is a MUST NOT LOSE.

Pedro Mendes
Well we have sold all of our best players and Bale will be next. I wouldn't say we couldn't wait to get rid of them but we mainly buy the kind of player will know could well be worth a lot more than what we originally paid for them.

Agree about Dembele. Even though his form in the second half of the season hasn't matched his form in the first half of the season, I still think he's a quality player.
I wouldn't say Sig has been a brilliant addition. He's a decent squad player, but ultimately I think we need better to be honest.
I'm still hoping Dempsey is going to be the real deal.
Which is a good and necessary strategy for a club in our position.
