Jose sending a wake up call
Dele being sent to Madrid as punishment. :lolbron:

Time to swim with the sharks Bamidele. Don't think your Young Player of the Year awards are going to cut it :mjgrin:
Some punishment playing for the biggest club in the world, in Champions League and easily winning the league title while everyone knows he over his head. :dahell:

And then next year gets an big money deal to like Everton or West Ham where he will get paid more than he gets now. :dahell:

Jose wants Bamidele to feel how he felt when his ego got popped in Madrid. :manny:

I know it's easy to blame Jose, but these Spurs problems were already there before Jose. Did Poch burn the whole team out with his crazy double sessions and high pressing. Kane lost mobility, with his ankle injuries, Eriksen and Dele look like shadows of their former selves. Unless you change your whole squad every 3-4 years, high intense pressing has a short shelf life and isn't ready built for long term success.

The voice of reason. Keeping Dele and bringing in Bale would be good business if structured right. Still need a striker and the Belotti rumors are still going.

Arsenal really milked this Auba extension.

Better sign some midfielders :ufdup:

Which is more important, Aouar or Partey?

Can’t see anything moving until Kolasinac, Torreira, Sokratis are gone.

On the high, the Kroenke’s are eating real good. Nuggets, Rams’ stadium, Arsenal, Avalanche.

Both :mjcry:

Leaning towards Aouar if he can grow into that attacking mid role. Our attack still looks choppy and uncoordinated at times.
