Daniel Levy and the transfer committee who decide which players Spurs sign

Four men will decide which players join Tottenham this summer

"Nobody is signed without the Spurs manager's approval. He signs off on them all and every signing must fit his philosophy and be able to meet his high demands.

Pochettino will take into account McDermott's opinion on whether an academy player is a better fit in a position than a new signing, but he will also have players in mind that he wants.

Notoriously fussy over the profile of players joining his tight-knit group, before any deal is made the Argentine likes to talk to the player - face to face if possible - to get a sense of the person. He decided within five minutes of meeting Serge Aurier two summers ago that the Ivorian could overcome the controversy that had dogged him in the preceding years."

Love from A.Gold.... The clubs so-called called man on the media.

I see.

Do you know much about this Duda fella? He impressed me last night and against Bournemouth at the weekend. And do you know if that guy at Norwich you recommended discovered Buendia?

I don't know anything about Duda. I was just surprised him and Rupp were already starting games, cos none of them were getting minutes at Hertha or Hoffenheim.

Stuart Webber should be the man signing Emi Buendia. There's some mention of it in this vid:

Yes he was.

He may not have been a player Poch originally wanted. But he signed off on it.

Klopp was not sold on Salah as well to begin with for example.

 

[Melspurnian]

As reckon that Dani Olmo is Leipzig-bound in the next couple of hours for just €20 million (£17 million).

Bummer on two levels

Our scouting and purchasing systems are fucken rotten

I wouldn't argue that he doesn't give approval but obviously every signing doesn't fit his philosophy or high demands. I think it's a case of Levy saying do you want Njie or nothing? Ok I'll take Njie.
Technically he's signed off on it but Njie/Stambouli/GNK/Fazio etc not really what he wanted. Signing off on Clarke doesn't affect him too much, because he can send him back to Leeds and he already got the 3 players he wanted.

 

[Don Giovanni]

Klopp was not sold on Salah as well to begin with for example.

He didn't want him at all, Poch has always favored technicians over donkeys.

It is the reason why it took him nearly 3 years to find a role for him in the team.

 

[Tottenham Sean]

Have we signed "just William" yet,or whatever his name is?

Herrera OR Aurier - Chose Aurier

"60m Ndombele OR no-one" - Really? That's tight Levy in effect is it?

You're ignoring so much and placing disproportionate focus on players that weren't key/major signings.

Signing off on Clarke doesn't affect him too much, because he can send him back to Leeds and he already got the 3 players he wanted.

Which is why I accused you of using him as a diversionary tactic within the debate.

Like Yedlin.... Low cost, low risk.... Low significance. Who gives a fuck?

Well, against Bournemouth, Duda played a lot of one-touch/two-touch stuff that really impressed me. And not stupid flicks to the opposition either. Looks like a very clever player.

 

[RESPECT THE COCK]

But fucking Milan will only do a loan deal with an obligation to buy.

 

[Boltonspur]

Here we go again.
That’s the end of that.
Google/you tube can have a rest FWIW, the clips I’ve seen of this Willian chap were underwhelming.
Piatek (save for the absurd goal celebration) looks to be the better buy. But we will probably offer €5 million plus a night in Joe Lewis’ lifeboat for the selling chairman, his family & the board of directors.

 

[ElTel]

50 is too much. Then again if he comes in and scores the goals that propel us into the top 4 then it's money well spent. Tough one

I quite like the goal celebration. Reminds me of Robbie Keane

 

[Aussie Yid in London]

I will absolutely be singing this everytime he scores if Piatek signs for us.

I already said Ndombele was a player he wanted and there was money available having not spent in the previous window.

Aurier too with the amount he had to spend he considered that the best option, the transfer committee agreed.

Which is why I accused you of using him as a diversionary tactic within the debate.

They aren't players that the manager wants, that's the point. We should only get in players that the manager really wants, he is in charge of the squad after all.

If this is true then let’s just go for it.

I never said that he did not want him. But he was the one who okayed it at the end.

No manager gets 100% what they want. Not Zidane at Madrid, not Tuchel at PSG, not Klopp at Liverpool and not Poch when he was with us. Managers need to be adaptable. You should always try to get your prime target but when that doesn't work you need to be able to adapt.
