If he really thinks Leicester, Saints, & Wet Spam are going to be top four, he's gotta be smoking some serious ****!....
Leicester and Saints are both clubs with serious financial backing, and are looking at long term success, West Ham will be the pride of London with their shiny new stadium to match their quality football. Arsenal and Spurs are interchangeable as they're much the same club.
Actually it's the first time I've mentioned it, but nice wum fail anyway. Besides you spend your existence on here telling us that Spurs are going to finish in the top 4 and now I'm saying that this year they might, you're trying to dismiss it as a wum. Make your mind up flower.
I don't think Arsenal87 has ever posted anything that extreme, so an extremely unfair and needless comparison.
Neither Leicester nor Saints have anywhere near the resources of Spurs, let alone Arsenal, City, Utd, or Chavski. They're chances of getting a top four spit in the foreseeable future are remote in the extreme. The Spammers, in their shiny new ( rented, no sorry, make that stolen) stadium simply aren't good enough to finish top four. Yeah, right. Pretty obvious Wum attempt!....
Ok the Spurs/Arsenal line was an obvious Wum. Leicester and saints have wealthy owners, now I don't know a lot about Leicester's set up but you're right Saint's can't or won't compete with the traditional big clubs when it comes to available funds so we're trying a different way to break the top 4, this involves clever scouting, good use of our excellent academy and selling our players for the biggest profit we can, Reinvesting that money on better players so we can move slowly up the table. Rinse repeat etc. Every year less players wish to leave making us more competitive on the pitch.
I like how Leicester are playing and they seem to have something about them. Look at their form since last year when they pulled themselves out of the relegation zone to 3rd in table, it's very impressive. This could be a season of upsets in that Chelsea Liverpool and United don't get in top 4. It could be City Arsenal Spurs Leicester But Spurs could easily fall away as they have done so before and Klopp might come good and LVG might get United to play football and it could be city arsenal Liverpool United Leicester Spurs
For me, it's between us and Liverpool. The Chavs could make a late run, but every week they don't win that's more points they have to catch up. The extra TV money that came with the recent new deal has certainly changed the transfer game a bit. Smaller Premiership clubs can now say No to £20 mill bids for their top players - money they would bite your hand off for a couple of years ago. We've also invested heavily in youth. The problem, as always, is trying to keep them when the Real's of the world come calling. Catch 22 in a way, you can attract top players if you're in the CL. But you need top players to get there!..
Spurs are facing a future that Arsenal have already been though recently as you have a stadium to pay for whilst other teams buy players and also raid you for your star players whilst also keeping players agents happy and of course keeping fans happy by being in contention, and relying on your board to keep their nerve to back a manager. Difficult times ahead and of course we Gooners will constantly remind you of any failings that you make as all the Spurs fans did why we were failing to only win 2 major trophies in last 2 years
Reasonable wum attempt. I think the new stadium effect will be minimalised by the increased revenue from the global to deal. As with Saints ( and Arsenal!) we are vulnerable to bigger clubs trying to nick our best players. I obviously hope we can keep this group together, but if anybody does come knocking, they'd better be waving a very large cheque! I honestly don't see such difficult times ahead. I, like most Spurs fans, am quite excited and optimistic about this team we are building under Pochettino. We ran you ragged, and we've no reason to fear anybody!
Arsenal didn't suffer any financial hardship during the move, they merely used it as an excuse. Wenger spends what he wants to, blows loads of cash on unfit squad players and gets away with underperforming by pointing to irrelevancies. You had plenty of spare money this summer, by all accounts, yet stuck with a group that you clearly don't think are good enough. Not only that, it's clear by his recent comments that your manager doesn't think that they're good enough, either. Feel free to spin the post-match interview on your loss to Sheffield Wednesday some other way, though.
I think Chelsea have too big a mountain to climb so 4th is wide open this season. Despite the clown spud claiming it's a wum, I think this is the best Chance Spurs have had in a long time to get 4th. Also Utd could struggle so there's potential for a real battle between Utd, Liverpool, Spurs, West Ham, Leicester to make the top 4. The TV money is going to strengthen the PL clubs further, but I think transfers between clubs will still happen, just that the price of transfers will increase. Top players will still want to play at the top clubs, that's a certain as night follows day.
It's all that you could come up with. The finances are there for everyone to see, you simply think that Arsenal and Wenger especially do no wrong.
