No champs league

Will it be the be all and end all of securing players? Lets face it, even if Hazard goes to Cheatski, will he play all the time, will he have to rotate with Marko Marin? Where exactly would Modric fit in if he wanted his cake and eat it by not having to move home and go to the Blues? Citeh may have won the league, but they have a plethora of unhappy players. Liverpool spent a fortune, so have Cheatski by bringing in players like Mata to achieve exactly what, finishing below us. Its up to Levy to convince the likes of Vertonghen that at his age he can afford to wait a year, but play the majority of the games and even though we dont pay what some do in wages, he will earn at lot more then he does at Ajax.
What about our friends down the road, they are buying Poldolski, another left footed forward, seems like a replacement to me, are they really any stronger than us? go back since the prem started and this is really the closest we have been to breaking the stranglehold of the traditional top 4 and all done WITHOUT champions league money, so buckle up, forget about probably the worst team to ever win the champs league and look forward to a very interesting summer and remember one thing, we are still Tottenham Hotspur.

[b]yeah we need to keep the faith although its hard sometimes

Well, as suspected its started with Modric, we cant have him disrupting the start of the season this time round, but we cant cave in to his demand of wanting to stay in london and therefore Cheatski, but if it has to be them because they are willing to pay 50 million, what do you guys think? They bought Mata and only finished 6th, theyve bought Marko Marin, is very similar, do we sell to Madrid for less money? why do you guys think?

Judging by the below, looks like we are trying to sort things early this time round

"Levy is moving quickly to try to improve the Spurs squad, however, and it is understood that he was in Holland last night in an attempt to seal the signing of Ajax centre-back Jan Vertonghen, who was named player of the season in the Dutch Eredivisie.

Arsenal have also been scouting the 25 year-old but it is understood that his desire to join Tottenham has been unaffected by Chelsea taking England’s fourth Champions League place. The Belgium international would cost about £11million.

It is also thought that Spurs manager Harry Redknapp was in Paris last week to meet Marseille striker Loïc Rémy, who the club tried to sign in January.

Talks have progressed positively in recent days with Emmanuel Adebayor, whose loan spell expired at the end of the season. Adebayor’s Manchester City contract is worth £170,000 a week, but it is understood that Tottenham are ready to make a £4 million up-front payment if he agrees to a £100,000-a-week deal to remain at the club until 2016".

Lought, I think the penny has finally dropped with Levy and the fact that he flew out personally shows that, feel a bit sorry for Caulker though, as you cant imagine Harry not starting Kaboul and Vertonghen, Caulker is first choice at the Swans, will he be happy to sit on the bench and fight for his place, all teams need decent cover for every position,
choose any two from Kaboul,Vertonghen,Dawson,Caulker magic!!

They will all get games this season if Aitch manages his squad properly.

And theres the rub Ion mate, will he learn from last season?

Bloody hope so DJ. With the amount of talent available, and the way he has seen us fade 2 seasons in a row, he'd have to be a fool to not realise it. If he carries in regardless then, I'm sorry, I don't really want a fool running the team.

Time will tell.

[b] yeah if we get vertonghen our back four will look a bit more solid
