i feel avb or whoever will have a lot of work to do.
1. buy a midfielder to replace modric. moutinho, danny from zenit or dzaegov.
2. a striker. llorente, cisse, soldado, remy or doumbia are my choices.
3. a left back. i hate assou ekotto. pereira from porto, criscito from zenit or balzaretti from palermo.
4. 2 cb's needed. sakho, rami, bruno alves, verthogen, benatia or subotic are my personal choices.
this is what i think needs doing for us to challenge for the title and i know people will disagree.

Re Superyod, Levy hardly ever speaks in public but you can find plenty of info about some of his long term plans, one being to only buy first teamers whilst developing and recruiting young stars such as Coulibaly and Cellabos and basically to have a world class academy that will produce our stars for the future.
Your frustrated but we are in for an exciting transfer window and no Harry Redknapp aswell which i am very happy about!

We may well be in for an exciting transfer window, who knows?
Im not frustrated, im very weary. Ive had over 40 years of supporting the club through thick and thin and im , sort of, a bit "so what? about things now. Too much cr*p posted by ITKs who are not and not enough feedback from Levy as to exactly why he let Harry go and exactly what direction he wants to take the club. Call me old fashioned but as a paying customer, if the club wants me to keep paying they really need to communicate with me. Thats not asking him to give out confidential info just a brief summary of why he didnt think Redknapp was suitable to stay in the job managing OUR club. Ive no issues with Redknapp going just issues with a Chairman who doesnt come out and explain the clubs position leaving it all down to speculation and bullsh*t.

New kit is to be released on the 17th. It's just been posted on spurs site

Sorry but who gives a f*ck about the new kit? Im sure people are far more interested in who is going to be pulling on the shirt and going onto the pitch next season than the latest kit we are all expected to buy, right?
Only a fool is going to part with their hard earned without having a clue as to exactly what the club plans, how they are going to make the step up ( well they must think that they can move things forwards without Redknapp) and who is going to be put in charge to make this all happen....and bear in mind, we havent even mentioned the players who are going/ coming in.
Lets have a bit of dialogue from Mr Levy, eh? Lets actually hear what his vision is and lets see who the new manager is and what they plan BEFORE they start releasing kits and sh*t. lets start putting the important things in order of priority, ya know, the Cart before the f*cking horse!
Super Y*d

Chill out m8 he was only saying. Think this close season has really gotten to u go take a lay down!!

Calm down mate. We all friends together here. Talk like that on other sites. Not here

Im sure they were and i meant no offence ( Ive had the missus talking about the new kit all fuggin week.....)
My point was that the new kit annoucement is far less important than the new manager annoucement.
I appologise if i came actross a bit blunt.
Super Y*d

Super yod the thing is if people don't buy the kits then how exactly are spurs supposed to fund all these new players. At the end of the day it's all relative.

I don't claim to know exact figures or even being that good at math but I'm pretty certain that without the sale of merchandising then it would have a huge impact on what the club can and cannot do financially.

So in affect I do give a s**t about the release of the new kit. And I'm the original poster.

Mk1

MK1, what you say has its merits, of course merchandising is vital to the club, my missus spends a bloody fortune at the Spurs shop everytime we get down to a home game, with the cost of tickets and travel, a game can easily set us back a couple of hundred quid, no bullsh*t. Lets put this all into perspective. The club wants us to take an interst and buy into the kit for the new season yet we have had no communication from the club as to the direction it believes it should be taking post Redknapp. All i want is some assurance that the club has a plan and its working to acheive something. Am i to be really enthusiastic about the new kit and sp*nk away my hard earned money on home games if i dont even know whether the week after i buy my new shirt...and one for the wife, we end up with another Comolli/Ramos combination? I know we are talking about the possible AVB connection but, in all fairness, Ramos came to us with a pretty good C.V, he was doing bloody good things with Seville in a two team dominated league and pushing them on in European cup competitions. In other words its like persuading me to stick a deposit down on a new car that i havent seen and something that could be utter w*nk. Ive pumped plenty of my own cash into the club over the last 40 odd years of supporting them, id just like them to play with a straight bat and give us some idea of their plans. Talking about the new kit without even having a new manager in place seems to me to be a bit previous. Let get the new manager presented to us and THEN hawk the new kit. Its not like im not going to buy the shirt !

True I see your point. Well hopefully now that they've announced a date for kit release the manager and maybe even a few new faces will be in place before the release date which they have now changed to the 12th

Not a Tottenham fan here but I just have a question. Is Huddlestone injured and if so when will he be back? Always rated him and I think he should be Englands new holding midfielder in a midfield 3 of him Cleverly and Wilshere. All can pass create chances and get stuck in.
Thanks

Yeah unfortunately he has struggled with injuries, still a class act. Very good post I agree with you

He has had a career threatening ankle injury and he hacks a couple games last season but he couldn't keep for, he has had operations and apparently at one point we wanted to loan him to the MLS to get his fitness back, I think he is jogging again I can't remember, I'm hoping and I think he will be back this season :)

Moutinho is reported to have said AVB would be good for us and said given the opportunity he would work for him again in an instant ...... Make of it what you will

Guys with Parker going to be out with an Achilles problem for the first month of the new season ... Sandro going to be in the Olympics * good or bad thing you decide (means he will miss pre season and more likely to get injured ) * where is the Hudd in terms of recovery ... Because all we would have left in the DM department would be Livermore .... Just saying is nobody else slightly worried .... Or would J V * if we sign Him * be thrown straight in and be used at DM where he is a strong player as well as cb , lb .... Suggestions.? Criticisms ?
