I am surprised that Marcus Edwards hasn't been included on this trip. Hasn't he recovered from his injury?

I believe there is a pact among the players to try and do something unique and special. They all recognize they can earn significantly more elsewhere but that may not ultimately lead to glory. With the progress they have made over the last 2 seasons I believe gives them the confidence to know they will ultimately reach the pinnacle. All the interviews I've read so far from the players indicate they do not really want to add a big name into their midst. They know and trust each other and want to win together that's why they quickly disassociated with Kyle Walker immediately he left for City.[color=brown]amafolas[/color] wrote: I am gunner. and I still like this current spurs team more than ours.

From second to third is not progress. Thats regress.

Apparently no contact from Spurs, according to an article quoting his agent. Besides, young Germans rarely leave their shores to play elsewhere, very few make the move.Cristao II wrote:The club knows we need a RB/LB. We are weak in that position manpower wise. Rose is injured. KWP can back up in both positions. I only hope the German FB that we are linked with isnt an attempt by his agent to force a contract with Hoffenheim. The dude is in the last year of his contract.

Conte is not the only one, let's face facts, expectation levels at Spuds don't match the levels at the top clubs. Never have, never will.
it's unreasonable or unfair for a Spurs fan to poke at a Pep, or Jose etc knowing fully well that their expectation and target is not in Spurs expectation level. Can Spurs win the league? Yes they can. Are they expected? No. If Pooch finishes second or third what will happen? Pat on the back. Neither Pep nor Jose are afforded that luxury. The media will come down hard on them one way or another. So its the proverbial apples and oranges situation. Again, money is irrelevant to the discourse because every ambitious club requires the manager to buy big players whether they like it or not. More apples vs oranges. If Pooch goes to ManU he will spend 100M+ in one window whether he wants to or not. It's what it is. And he will be required to win the league. In that scenario, second place won't work.

As we have seen with Arsenal, 3 major trophies in 4 years and not being able to compete financially with 3 of the direct competition is not enough to save Wenger from expectations and pressure.
Trust me, the easiest thing is being able to contend for the title without expectation and pressure. Whenever they have had to perform under a bit of pressure in the last 2 seasons, this Spuds team has crumbled in the League and FA Cup.

When you have a team like Chelsea that can still call on 40m strikers, midfielders and defenders towards the tail end of the season or to replace another injured player, that obviously hides the fatigue and the inability to sustain the same level of performance with a team like Spurs relying on a few core all season.
Everybody keep singing this "crack under pressure" song yet they tell us we are an injury to Kane, Alli or one of our defenders, away from falling-off the title race.
I don't need anyone of you to tell me Spurs is trying very hard to win the title with the pressure of making the little they have go a long way. It is the way of things now that we put down those who make a go of the little they have as lacking ambition or working under less pressure.
Money can take off a lot of pressure just like not having it can make every little thing pressure packed.
I'm sure if you were talking about Arsenal you'd point out how with the tight squad you have, Kane missed 3 months, Lamela the whole season, Rose practically over half the season and the likes of Jan and Toby both out at the same time for spells. Yet the team chased, more than others who have a decent bench of millionaire stars. Keep sendingnging how we crack under pressure if it helps you as a goon
