It won't be a very long one irrespective.Hopefully thats a debate we'll be having on June 2
Where did I say I'd rather win the league cup. Winning the Champions League would be the greatest night of my Spurs life.It won't be a very long one irrespective.
We are Champions League finalists.
If you don't see that as a sign of progression and put more weight in winning the League Cup, then there's not much more to be said.
Why?For someone who endorsed and supported the club spending £0.00p and failing to add a single player last summer, using injuries as an excuse is pretty feeble tbf.
Where did I say Poch has regressed? Please quote me. If I did, then apologies.Anyway, back to the point, which you dodged.
How is it you are now claiming Poch has regressed when you’ve been saying he performed miracles?

I agree with Poch and the majority of like minded fans.
We can't continue to compete and finish top 4 unless the owners change their approach and give him more backing. Like he said, he needs new tools and a clear plan.
I agree with Poch
Yeah. He continued to work miracles with zero backing from the owners. We didn't spend any money, remember. We became the first major club, ever, ever, not to make a single signing. Yet despite the squads regression, he still somehow dragged us into the top 4 and into the CL final.So the team regressed but the manager progressed?

It wasn't Levy coaching the team in such circumstances, you know! While you ponder that point, I'm getting in the tub

Perhaps they have already but you and I will never know about. Let me tell you where I am on this.Themselves would be a good start
But he didn’t quit last August so they would still be wrong
After Dembele left in January, we got top 4 and a champions league final, 12 days ago you said the squad wasn't good enough, it was said in anger and you changed your mind and said the squad was good enough, therefore if no one leaves then according to your view that the squad is good enough, we shouldn't be buying anyone if no one leaves.I said the squad was good enough last summer.
Dembele was in the squad.
He now needs replacing.
You know this isn’t working out for you right?
Hahaha....Do you work for Sky?
Same as Wolves? What about the part where we won 7 more games than Wolves and gained 14 more points?
Oops
I´ll make it easy:
They said the squad was not top 4. We finished top 4
They said Poch would quit. Poch didnt quit.
So when the back up proved it was good enough to finish in the position they claimed it couldnt, they were still right?
If we win the CL, are they still right?
hahahah
Why do you ignore the possibility that Poch didn't sign a single player because it was his decision not to? There is plenty of evidence to support this, even from Poch's own lips too.Yeah.

The determination of some on here to make it look like we are so shit just to prove their point is simply staggering. With every single post, we appear to be getting worse and worse as a team, which is odd given the fact that over the last 4 seasons no other team has finished in the top 4 as regularly as us. The new take on us is we are now a "lucky" team.
Fuck me.
I'm not trying to say we're shit or a lucky team, if your post is aimed at me.Hahaha....

Yep.
Only Spurs and money-no-object Man City have had 4 consecutive top 4 finishes.
And of those 2 teams, only one (can't recall which one right now) has reached the final of the CL.
Not specifically at you mate but I am including you.I'm not trying to say we're shit or a lucky team, if your post is aimed at me.
Fair enough but do you accept those usual suspects, whoever they are, love the club and probably only see the fruits ie trophies of our labour?Not specifically at you mate but I am including you.
The desire to win an argument on here it seems is more important than the facts that surround the actual performance of the team and the circumstances that influenced those performances.
It's absolutely fine to say we haven't played as well this year compared to other years, we don't need to look at other teams around us to acknowledge this, we've all been discussing it all year and debating what the issues are that may or may not have contributed.
BUT we are a top side a side that hasn't lucked their way to a Champions League final. We absolutely deserve to be there on merit. We are an established top four side, irrefutable fact. We've reached Finals and semi-final of domestic competitions EVERY year too. All this reflects how good we are.
We can improve, there are clear areas in the squad where we can improve, these are the issues that have been debated all year, some people will agree with them others not. But reading the last few pages on here is no different to another year in last 4/5yrs, the usual suspects (NOT you!!) come out to play and denigrate the club, by the time the window closes we will be finishing 10th behind Everton, Palace and West Ham clubs which they envy and covert. It's fucking bizarre.
Before the transfer window opened Poch openly stated he wanted to sign players, and get the deals done before pre-season. As the window progressed, right up until the end, he continued to say he wanted and expected to sign players.Why do you ignore the possibility that Poch didn't sign a single player because it was his decision not to? There is plenty of evidence to support this, even from Poch's own lips too.
The squad is within is remit though, or if you're saying they aren't then he can't take credit for our success this .
He can't criticised for wages and transfers, he can't take credit for that either, so the great buys we've had Alli, Toby, Son etc he can't get credit for that because you're saying he can't be criticised for wages and transfers.
