So Levy is responsible if a player turns out good or not? You're thicker than 2 planks it seems, annoying little mouth-breather - log off for a while and go catch Pokemon or something

Your not quite getting this are you, my little gooner friend. No one is saying Levy is responsible for how good or bad a player develops. OK. Let that sink in first....got it now....good.
However, Levy is responsible for sanctioning the transfer fee...So, if the player in question were to cost 20MILLION quid or more, it's Levy, not Poch or any previous manager who has the final say.
Understandy.......good. now fuck off.

Because your mindset is that carelessly spending money buys success, and calculated purchases cannot.

You seem to have a bit of an issue understanding the simple reasons why your statements aren't popular. Reminds me of a guy in Florida...

Well well, Mr fucking Popular, what a patronising cunt you really fucking are.
Some disagree with me yes, others agree, as you can easily view for yourself. And where did I ever say we should carelessly spend money. I just question Levy's enthusiasm for success sometimes. Think we could do more. Whereas if you caught him shafting your missus up the kyber you'd be convinced he was acting in the best interests of the club

You harp on all the time about how we don't spend money and have no ambition.

It's hard not to be patronising when you're responding to a post that sounds so vacant.

You still haven't enlightened us as to some examples of these top players we used to attract, btw.

Everyone should have known why Pochettino was brought in and what he does by now.
We seem to have got 3 decent players for £39m under Poch in Alderwiered, Janssen and Wanyama.
Then again we could have bought Bolasie for the same price.
The stadium is getting built Johnny and that costs money. The lodge is getting built, more money.
Pochettino is here to use the academy and supplement it with decent signings.
We have never been £30m club bar one year. Yes the TV money has increased but a chunk is earmarked for the other stuff.
Everton sold stones for £50m so that means they should be spending £160m this season surely.
For all their bluffing Spam have spent the same as us.
Saints have bought 3 players for £27m and sold £57m, really splashing the TV money there.
Palace have spent £50m on 4 players and sold £43m so far, TV money Haemorrhaging there.
I think the TV money is mostly spent on wage bills.
Cunts like Conte meaning about the state of the transfer market and how the mad fees are making it 'difficult' for him.
Obviously knows fuck all about how that all started & Chavdom.


Chill doubting Thomas.

A friendly and we'll thought out counter argument. I can accept that. I disagree with you using the likes of Palace and Southampton as benchmarks though. No comparison to Spurs, Europe's 11th richest club. A much bigger club with a much bigger fan base with far higher expectations, and rightly so

Chelsea 2016/17: Spent £60m, sold roughly £30m so far (probably near break even if they sell Cuadrado)
Chelsea 2015/16: Spent £72m, sold £63m
Chelsea 2014/15: Spent £118m, sold £113m

Liverpool 2016/17: Spent £68m, sold £70m so far
Liverpool 2015/16: Spent £83m, sold £55m
Liverpool 2014/15: Spent £49m, sold £29m

etc.etc. Not ground breaking outlays, and haven't exactly bought quality.

The only clubs spending big are Man Utd and Man City - one of which has high turnover, but more debt that the entire value of our club, and the other is funded by oil and dodgy deals and is probably more in debt (technically owed to the owners) than the red half.

You're 10 years too late to expect that we should be operating and spending any differently.

With Mourinho selling every young player that played for LVG, why not go for Marcus Rashford instead?
