    Our new Dutch striker got his first goal for us today in a friendly against Rotherham, Marcus Edwards and Shay Harrison getting the other goals in a 3-1 win.

    Nice run and cross by Trippier. That's probably the best part of his game.
    Janssen's marker wasn't up to much, though. Bullied at first, then totally on the wrong side of his man.

    Rumours of Chadli going to Swansea arise at the same time that American's purchase 60% of the Welsh club. Kerrrchinnng!

    He's got talent but he really doesn't look like a Pochettino player to me. I think he'll be on his way when someone gets desperate enough to bid £15m and we'll make one more signing, Yunus Malli maybe?

    L'equipe are now saying that Lyon are making a last min attempt to resign Clinton.

    Loaning him out I can understand, but selling him?! If that's true, then it must come down to attitude issues, otherwise it's very strange.

    Lamela spent a lot of his first season injured, too.

    Very odd, if true.

    Morning chaps....do we have any female posters BTW?

    Have we signed this N'koudou(sp) geezer? If so....is he just an upgrade for the bench? I want to see Lamela have a barnstormer this year. I think he has got it in him.

    Upgrades for the bench are absolutely essential Dona. Our starting XI is strong enough to beat anyone. The real problems last season were only encountered when players were injured/suspended, or when the opposition set up like Chelsea in their successful CL campaign. In both scenarios, top quality understudies and impact subs who can change a game are crucial.

    What stood out last season was the reality that 80% of Poch's substitutions had no impact on the game whatsoever, often actually making things worse. This has to change or we'll forever be a better looking, more friendly version of Arsenal.

    Spurs have a one N' , one out policy now.
    He will be on the books for this season only, and the next one will be N' coming next summer.


    " I want to see Lamela have a barnstormer this year. I think he has got it in him."

    I want him to set a target of at least 10 PL goals this season.

    Cheers CK. I agree about upgrades. I just think its very hard to find a player who will actually upgrade.....Chadli plays like he's in shock. I think our demands are out of his depth. I'd have gone for Arnautovic(sp) of Stoke. He's usually fired up for the big games, the type that always has a point to prove. Also has PL experience and can score a few. Has the ability to make things happen out of nothing. He might demand first team football. However I think an upgrade in club, the London limelight, Wembley games, CL football exposure would convince the Ibrahimovic lite to join us.

    Not sure of his age like.

    Kane is our 20 PL goals per season striker.
    Alli got 10 PL goals in his first season. If the other two also try and front up without going all
    Townsend on us, the damage would be awesome.

    I would also like the back four to set themselves a target of at least 10 PL goals in total
    between them.

    But justified in the context of the spiralling "p*ssing contests" that often occur on the PL board articles.

    On old BBC 606 forum, there was Holte Legends and Miss Villa (everyone knew Miss Villa was a man) who were WUM's on Tottenham's board when Villa did well in Premier League, had a few top 6 finishes when Martin O Neill was their manager until 08/09 season. Since he left the club, Villa have been.......... <laugh>

    1. Are you saying Holte was a woman ??

    2. The name "Miss Villa" may have referred to the shooting accuracy of the team rather
    than the gender of the user.

    No chance! Both Holte Legends and Miss Villa are men! Spurs fans wish Villa weren't relegated as when we beat them home and away last season, it was like midweek training. <rofl>
