FTR I am not anti-Levy or a Levy apologist, I am a passionate supporter who has been following the Spurs since 1984. The last three years have been the best for me, even though we could not manage to add a trophy for our endeavours, also the new stadium is fantastic and I cant wait for us to move back home. However I fear that Levy's dithering and procrastinating in the transfer market will harm us, we just need 1 or 2 quality additions and we can seriously challenge. COYS

please prove what he has dithered and procrastinated on this window? everyone is getting frustrated because the way he works, but no proof of it this window so far. Even the Grealish deal has been held up Villa's end, and the only way we would of got him straight away is pay 40m :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Zero signings, nothing even close with the season starting in three weeks ?, Levy gets paid handsomely by his Father in Law and he is not doing his bloody job, if that's good enough for you then good luck pal !

but we put bid/s in for Poch targets, or do you want him to buy non Poch target.

so Ajax turned us down, what should we do?

Man U don't want to sell to us, what should we do?

Getting back to the itk about Cook, I live in Bournemouth and their fans rave about him. He does look very good, quite similar to Winks though. I’m fairly sure he signed a new contract a couple of months ago, so I imagine he will be fairly pricey. Maybe as I think Trix said, it’s more about laying a marker down for the future, and a possible back up plan.

If we do sign him it makes me wonder about Winks injury. Either way Poch could make him a very class player, he’s someone that could jump out of our price range if we wait too long since there is a big Winks/Cook shape hole in the current England team.

I don’t think there’s a Winks-shaped hole in England’s team at all. England don’t really play a midfield at all. They bypass midfield at every opportunity, and I think that’s a growing trend at club level, too. It’s not POMO, and I think it can be quite attractive and progressive, but it doesn’t have much use for traditional CMs.

Can you prove the only way we would of got him is by paying £40m?

Living in Bournemouth also. Several mates with AFCB season tickets and they rate Cook very highly also. Matured a lot through last season, really only a bench player 2017.

Away from the two quality signings we need and I advocate this fully. Adding quality in any position shouldn’t be overlooked. Take City with Mahrez. Best stable of ACM in the league and they spend another £60m there.

Our 1st XI is one or two ‘top top’ players away from City but our squad is a long long way from theirs.

Quality when it becomes available should be taken although I do understand the recent ITK regards squad places and wages and leaning to getting one or two excellent £50m (+) type signings.

One day down on Hercs’ Monday to Wednesday tease.
