Next seasons squad

Its because his stats are not very good on football manager.

The opposite actually. Its his stats that make people think he's any good. Then you watch him and the reality hits

Osimhen would immediately become one of the two best strikers in the league, but I am not sure we could pay his wages or that he would want to join a club that has finished 17th two seasons in a row.

He joined Gala so he will join anyone willing to pay the wages. If our club really are looking to change how we do business, they will pay the wages. £300k a week should do it.

So you want us to sign Lewandowski, a player who turns 38 on 21 August. Wow!

We have no European football and he can offer a lot on the training pitch to Lankshear I'd have thought

17th

Like you want more of that.

your inability to understand what has happened the past two seasons is pretty unreal.

By January 19th this season, Spurs had recorded 19 separate injuries. We've had 73 in two seasons. The next closest is 61 (Man Utd).

But rather than recognize that and acknowledge we may have had a systemic problem, you choose to cast a player out based on his injury record, and then when challenged on that pivot to the league position being your justification.

Lets be very clear, we have not had good management - from the board, from Ange, Frank, or Tudor. Those three did not get on well with a depleted squad. De Zerbi, who is now the future for us, did work out pretty quickly how to play with a team shorn of its creativity, and that is the difference between the previous managers, (I love Ange, but he's got one way of playing) and RDZ.

We could line up with the exact same squad as we have had this season, with the youngsters a year wiser, and the injured players coming back into the squad, and finish 8-10th under De Zerbi. The reality that we are going to add first teamers means in a minute the likes of your mate Solanke will be battling for squad roles, but don't bet on one or two who we consider to be second string staking a claim and upping their game.

To suggest we should cast a player or players out based on their injury record, or the last two seasons of football at Spurs, rather than recognizing their actual ability, is more or less the daftest suggestion currently on this board.
