Come off it.

City are first choice for any player coming to the league. Liverpool you’d think are second choice for most looking for success but they don’t pay quite as much as some other clubs. Utd pay loads and are a club with big history. Chelsea pay well and are a London club which is a big draw for young rich people and also have recent success. Arsenal are a London club paying just under the richest clubs with more recent trophies than any of the other clubs except those mentioned so far.

If you’re a player coming to England you’re going to pick any of those five clubs above any of the rest of the league.


Top players would rather come to us than Arsenal.
 
We're having a bad season - you won't find any Spurs fan who will try to tell you otherwise.

But you get the feeling that we're better placed to play ourselves back into form.

All we need is a decent CB and DM, and we'll be back in the hunt.

Arsenal look lost.





It really has destroyed you that Arsenal lost, hasn't it!

Yes mate <doh> ... Arsenal are pushing us so closely for those Top 4 spots ...

You really are Mr Thicko, Quents <laugh>
 
Just seen our result. Sounds like it was another game we should have put to bed.

As long as the performances are improving, the results should follow. But this team can’t seem to buy a win atm :(

It requires making clever signings and not necessarily just big names. Both Liverpool and Leicester have done this very well. Hopefully the Arsenal board can improve in this regard!

I honestly believe that the moos and feeling around a club is more important than people realise …. we've had a bad feeling around our club for years when I look at clubs with similar unrest regardless of stature I see the same sort of issues yet clubs where theres a good vibe you see clubs doing great things.

You've got some nerve, showing your face so soon!

Yeah, that's right, mate.

You keep wishing on that particular star, yeah.

In all honesty, neither Spurs or Arsenal can compete with the two Manchester clubs, Liverpool or Chelsea as attractive transfer destinations currently ...

I think that’s a good point and I’m hoping if we develop a style of play and identity under Arteta that even if the results don’t come straight away the mood at the club improves and the fans and players all buy into what we are trying to do.

of course they can compete they just don't get 1st pick …. this sometimes means they get better players if the other clubs get it wrong, so of course they can compete
