I know just the same as the past two years, it really sucks.

Yep, completely fucking lost on that one.what the fuck is that monstrosity!
It's a radar graph of various statistics. How much value you choose to put in them is up to you. But personally, between some of those numbers, and watching some Ajax highlights this year, the kid looks very useful for us.what the fuck is that monstrosity!

The last 6 games form guide used to be a permanent feature in the top corner of the BBC’s football page. Many newspapers print it on the Friday before the weekend’s football. It’s a thing over here (or used to be). Nothing to get worked up about.
Edit: The racing papers do the same thing with horses.

There are two definitive schools of thought -
We must sign a player or we'll be behind the competition and won't qualify for the champions league, that will mean losing players falling behind and setting the club back for years.
We are a decent squad, with a decent Manager who had 2 quiet January windows in the past and we still finished pretty well nonetheless. While a signing would be nice, it's not the end of the world.
I'm clearly in the latter camp but we're not going to convince one another that we're right. If we finish top 4 then the arguments will be the same, one that if we'd have signed someone we'd have finished stronger the other saying considering the circumstances we've faced this season that's a massive achievement.
There is never any resolution to this because no fucker here has any control over who Spurs buys or sells. All you can say is both points are valid, of course having extra depth is never going to hurt but depth for this squad is really in 2 types of players, one that can go straight in to the first 11 which will be about £40m, a potential star £5-6m, maybe less but require development.
In January you can't buy a potential star, there is no point, that's why when we were talking about Sessignon the thinking was that he'd be a loan back player. You have to buy someone who will make an impact on the first 11 and there hasn't been any sign of that type of player this window.
We do need to accept that if we don't make that golden top 4 life will go on, the new ground will be there and that doesn't mean we don't still boast a great squad and manager. At the moment we're only 2 points off the top 4 we can do it but we have not been as consistent this season, we have under performed but in a strange way, by that I mean, we've lost 1 home league game, we're not terrible, we're cumbersome at times, too slow, not creative enough and yes, we still aren't up to much away from home and a lot hinges on the next few weeks as to how we do against the top 6 sides, but the deciding factor won't be a new signing, it will be players regaining form and getting the results we need.

We so rarely sign anyone in January and I ignored this thread until early January. Poch did talk about getting next summer's targets in early, so perhaps something might happen. However looks like nothing again.
I bet Man City fans are jealous of our sublime form that includes draws against West Ham and Southampton that doesn’t win a game in half a year. More points than them!!!!!
And that’s what supporting this club means to you?
Not looking at every single positive?
Or using a positive, mid season comment, as a means to take the piss out of other supporters? Find it funny that we have actually gained points on our rivals?
Take your Johnny come lately “I am a nice man from Portugal who likes chicken badge team” & fuck off back to supporting whatever shitstain club it is you follow over there.
Fuck my life. Some of the shit on here.
lol fair
Don’t you find it confusing to be constantly lauding a team/club that you simultaneously think is shit?
We've won 8 of our last 11 games.
