It's really hard to believe it's only 6 months since Ange arrived.
From finishing 8th, absolute dross football. Conte, Stellini, Mason.
There was nothing to be hopeful about at that stage. Seems a lifetime ago.
To this.
Effective, entertaining football.
Players desperate to play for us.
Beating the world's biggest clubs to signings.
Thank you Ange.
Thank you Don Fab. You have officially overseen the rebuild in spectacular fashion.
And credit to Levy for hiring them.

^^ This post has small dick energy....I think it's time for an apology, once again you doubted the great man but as per usual, King Levy has pulled through yet again!
You all called threw your go karts out the stadium, you all wet your beds, smashed your keyboards like cats
Attended your online protests in your masses BUT you didn't BELIEVE
Trust in the man, the myth, the legend - Daniel Philip Levy!
Can we please have an apology to the great man, the man who is responsible for the club we are today, the man who is
And all you lot can get it to

No need to reply to me, just fill the form out and submit it to me, you will remain anonymous, thank you.
My position has never changed, Levy will get a well done from me when/if this club starts winning silverware on the regular again, and only then.
He's already had a well done from me over the stadium back when it was finished, but now he has to win trophies. No more excuses from people like you. If we fail this time you have to finally hold your hands up and admit you were wrong.
As for this window as I already stated I'm happy with the Werner signing and was hopeful if we addressed the gaping hole at CB that would represent a decent window and maybe we could compete back half the season when the injured players return.
It took him a while but he finally got a CB over the line. Now we have to wait and see if he's actually a decent footballer.
I hope he turns out to be the next VVD and pilots us back into the CL and maybe even a cheeky FA cup win this season.
But a word of caution to the giddy.... one of the life lessions Supporting Spurs has taught me is not to blow your load early.
A lesson you clearly still need to learn.
Bin voted. I strongly suggest you watch how you speak to people, boy.
Got it? Good.
You clearly do not understand finance.
The FC belongs to......? ENIC + Levy. The Football team is only a portion of the FC finance.
Let's take Woolwich. Hypothetically speaking, let's say the value of the club is 10 billion. An amount 2 billion gets invested to Emirates Stadium, increasing cost but thereby increasing Asset Value, to not 12 billion but to 14 billion (If you don't live in cave, youll know fixed property escalates in value. And if you know property, you'll know Good renovation mostly increases value with more than the renovation cost). They invested the extra wealth into new players because they value winning.
Now if you have a Football Team worth 10 billion and you invest 2 billion into players, if you are extremely lucky or wise, the team will probably valued at very little more, say 10.2 Billion (Just look at how Gil, Ndombele, Spence, Winks...... Depreciated in value). Football players are not necessarily a cash cow. The better they play the higher salaries the players demand. We don't pay that much in salaries (Compared to other top 4), so if we finish top 4 our earnings is almost similar to that City but our players costed us way less. Why do you think we almost get to winning but we don't.
Furthermore older more experienced players are generally a liability. They start loosing value but their wages increases especially when bought at their peak. Levy doesn't operate like this. He buys young in the hope improvement. The youngsters cost less and earn less. They have to still prove themselves and are able to increase their values. This Levy Likes, hence our squad is what it is. Hence he didn't mind loosing Kane.
So when idiots like yourself say the TFC has increased in value, Yes it has. Since Levy is the owner, he is now richer. However the Football team, clearly has not seen the Growth. I hope you wake up someday. Until them I'll stand alone and say, "LEVY and ENIC OUT!".
So we don't praise Ange when we win, or any players when they score or play well because they're just doing their job then?
Mate; with CP as our only real top level yardstick; he's more of a 10 (or winger) than an 8......
Accepting the fact that Ange is playing with 3 different strains of MFs that despite formation, still largely adheres to the functions of 6, 8 & 10s.... Until Ange shows that he's keen to play 2 x attacking MFs then we shouldn't be re-balancing squad options.
Currently Eze would clearly occupy the same 10-ish pool as Madz, GLCV & Kulu; not the more grafty 6 & 8-ish pool which PEH would be vacating.
Not disputing anything of that nature........ I'd happily see him in our ranks.
No, he’s doing his thing unofficially a.t.m. When is ban is over will he get an official job again and if so what considering we have a new D.O.FYou say that like he isn't still involved in everything behind the scenes.
Yeah there's been many studies proving the "i'll be happy when... or when I get..." premise is outdated unfulfilling.
Nice to hear that Lange is already mucking in and getting his hands dirty at action end of the Dragusin deal too.
Just asking for my club to do what it did on the regular before the current ownership took over, that's all.
Why should I be impressed with less?
DON Fabio
Pretty sure there are plenty of players over the years who got dogs abuse and very little praise and quite a few managers as well . Eric Dier has been slaughtered way more than he was ever praised at his peak , he is the most recent example
Our previous owner was Alan Sugar and we were firmly rooted to mid table and going nowhere fast, if you want to get back to what the club was doing before ENIC took over then be my guest, suggest you'd probably be on your own though.
Splitting hairs...
And he's been praised when he's played well, the point being is that no-one would ever say that they're just doing their job when it comes to players/managers so why is the same thing said when it comes to chairman?
What's more folk here praise other club's owners for 'showing ambition' or whatever but I've never heard people say they're just doing their job, make it make sense.
As you've been told countless times by countless posters there was a club before Alan Sugar.
