    For the simple reason we didn’t meet the managers needs, a fact he has now confirmed.

    Hard to argue we are any stronger than last season, despite freeing up a significant part of the wage bill. (Letting Dack go now looks a mistake)

    Pros: 1. The keeper looks decent 2. Moran 3. Sigurdsson has some pedigree (though I do wonder if he wants to be here/heart is in it - was jetting off on hols this week) 4. Thank goodness we have a decent academy

    Cons: 1. Total lack of experience. Showed today 2. Goals. We create chances but as we saw today we miss most 3. Very thin squad 4. Majority of the teams around us look much stronger 5. Why no ‘big’ prem loan? First season in a while

    But the biggest issue I see is a throughly peed off manager. He is talented, driven and won’t hang around. Ultimately we got shafted by the owners and whatever reason/excuse they had for changing the budget.

    Gregg needs to earn his coin this window, we go into the season with that front 3 it's a relegation scrap this season, it's so annoying as we are a few good additions from being a real force 

    That is nail on the head.

    So frustrating as have players playing above their level with a bloody good manager. If they dared back him with a couple of quality additions we would be a really good team.

  3. Worst case scenario is Spurs take all summer to hire Slot with Levy playing hardball. We are then up against it to find a replacement late in the summer.

    You would have to imagine that the plan would be to replace JDT with a like for like, therefore recruitment can continue as planned.

    Like some other posters, whilst it makes sense on paper, I do think it would pose a risk for Feyenord to hire JDT. Would be a dream move for him though. 

    I wonder what the compensation would be?

    I didn't fancy creating a Yorkie thread, so seeing as he was Cole's strike partner for a while, I'll put his video in here.

    If there are any others in the future, I'll put them in the Nostalgia thread.

     

    Trinidad Rover loves this - he is still a legend back home. Along with the prince of Port of Spain (Brian Lara) our most famous sporting son.

  5. Feel for him as the move to Rovers has been nothing short of a nightmare.

    At the time this seemed like an exciting signing as he was getting rave reviews from Spurs and if I recall they had offered him a new contract. Clearly talented but at 22 in a few months I'm struggling to see how he gets into our XI, especially when JDT doesn't seem to rate him.

    I saw him live at West Ham in the League cup and he missed a sitter early on. Looked totally shot of confidence and didn5't make any impact in that game (a game where Jack Vale scored......).
