Decent, no more than that. Everyone seems to think Spurs were in the relegation zone when Poch was sacked. They were bottom half but only 3 points off 6th as the table was congested. Were also one point above Man. United.He's done a decent job considering where they were you have to give him credit for that.
We laughed at that but look what happened next
Good point.We laughed at that but look what happened next
Season isn’t over yet for Arsenal though is it? We have a cup final to play. Trophies on the line to add to the 3 we won in the last 10 years. Nice feeling winning trophies.Is that the same Arsenal that ended this season 8th?
Why would you use 10 years as a benchmark for trophies won when we ourselves have won 2 league titles in that period?Season isn’t over yet for Arsenal though is it? We have a cup final to play. Trophies on the line to add to the 3 we won in the last 10 years. Nice feeling winning trophies.
You were 3 points from 5th position when Jose took over, after 25 games you were ahead of us too.After everything that has happened this season I'd say managing to get into top 6 is worth celebrating.
Ye had a dire run before lockdown but tbf he did bring it back, sixth is decent given where ye were. It'll be very interesting to see how the summer goes, especially the dynamic between José and Levy. The fallout in autumn/winter if José doesn't get what he wants will be heavy.After everything that has happened this season I'd say managing to get into top 6 is worth celebrating.
He won't be. At least not this summer. All the talk around the club is that Jose is fully understanding of the club's financial situation. That doesn't mean he will be happy if Levy doesn't secure the players he would like - but he will be going for players who won't cost more than maybe £30 million. I'll be absolutely shocked if we spend anything near what we did last summer.Ye had a dire run before lockdown but tbf he did bring it back, sixth is decent given where ye were.

If José's given the money Poch wasn't, how would you feel about it?
This will hopefully be of benefit to us as I see liverpool, man city and Chelsea taking up the top 3 spots next season and us in 4th and if mourinho has his eye on the europa league like he did with us then that is one less club potentially fighting for 4th spot.He can use Europa like he did with us to get CL. Play strong team to get through group stages, which shouldn't be too hard for Spurs and then depending on where they stand in league come February, prioritise.
Depends if they win the cup or not as that obviously gets europa qualification aswell. You'd surely take 8th if it meant you won FA cup?Is that the same Arsenal that ended this season 8th?
Before Bruno right?
He said nothing wrong to be fair. Finishing between 4th and 6th, well, we finished 3rd but on the last week, and after signing Bruno. Also, no one expected Spurs to self-destruct, neither Arsenal to be this shit. He also said that we won't compete for the title, and as long as the objective is clear that we try to finish in top 4 and build from there, that would be totally good. Which is what we did.
Totally agree with you.You were 3 points from 5th position when Jose took over, after 25 games you were ahead of us too.
Overall yeah he did decent job.
HahaI am happy for him. Coming second with us is no more his biggest achievement. It is now coming 6th with Tottenham.
I think next season will be the one that determines whether Kane will stay with Spurs for the rest of his career or will move on. We will simply have to win something and challenge for the league to keep him.To be fair, he has done well in the last few matches.
I wonder how long Kane is willing to stick to this though. If they're in a similar position next season, then I think he'll put in a transfer request.
We have just finished above Chelsea, beaten them 3 time’s this season and have the youngest squad in the league which will only get better, why would you place Chelsea above us?This will hopefully be of benefit to us as I see liverpool, man city and Chelsea taking up the top 3 spots next season and us in 4th and if mourinho has his eye on the europa league like he did with us then that is one less club potentially fighting for 4th spot.
I'd be personally very surprised if City don't go big for him. Aguero will probably leave and Jesus is meh.I think next season will be the one that determines whether Kane will stay with Spurs for the rest of his career or will move on. We will simply have to win something and challenge for the league to keep him.
He is 100% not leaving next season. It's the summer transfer window after that I'm concerned about. I agree if I was Pep I'd be doing everything to get him. Kane in that City team would be breaking goal scoring records every season if he stayed fit.I'd be personally very surprised if City don't go big for him. Aguero will probably leave and Jesus is meh.
But a lot of other united fans have defended ole when being compared with Lampard by saying chelsea has the better squad so taking that into account and it looking like chelsea are about to drop about 250 million on transfers where they have already signed Werner and ziyech, plus havertz looks nailed on to happen and they are obviously going to buy a new keeper with frank not trusting kepa, I would also throw pulisic into this conversation because he was bedded into the team so slowly that he barely played in the first half of the season but now looks like a great replacement for hazard.We have just finished above Chelsea, beaten them 3 time’s this season and have the youngest squad in the league which will only get better, why would you place Chelsea above us?
Spurs are not challenging for the league next season. Liverpool and City will be the top 2 again, and Utd and Chelsea will spend big this summer and be better than this year.I think next season will be the one that determines whether Kane will stay with Spurs for the rest of his career or will move on.

If Spurs actually did win the EL, I think lifting a trophy would be enough to keep Kane on board for at least another season.Spurs are not challenging for the league next season. Liverpool and City will be the top 2 again, and Utd and Chelsea will spend big this summer and be better than this year.
Jose wants to win the EL, I don’t imagine that’s going to be enough?
Kane is 27 (tomorrow he will be) and Levy won't settle for anything but a record breaking fee or close to that, can't see any team paying so much, teams who can have players who are still playing at high level.If Spurs actually did win the EL, I think lifting a trophy would be enough to keep Kane on board for at least another season.
On a completely unrelated general note, this is a difficult topic for me. I started watching Spurs religiously because of how much I love Kane (my only real team, as such, is England), and I've developed a soft spot for the club over the last six years. But ultimately I want Kane to have the career his talent deserves more than I want Spurs to win something. If they happen to coincide, fecking fantastic, but there's only one winner in my mind if those two priorities conflict.
I hope Kane doesn't give Spurs too many more of his peak years if there aren't real signs of very significant improvement in the near future. He's just too good to end his career without a single trophy, unless he wants to go for the oddly distinguished honour of being the greatest player of all time never to win anything, which he undoubtedly would be if he did go trophyless until the very end.
He is a Spurs fan and I've no doubt would happily stay at the club for his entire career if we were able to match his ambition. The problem we have is that he has also said on several occasions that he would potentially move if the team didn't match his ambition. If we don't get ourselves right up there again very soon he will go.Kane is 27 (tomorrow he will be) and Levy won't settle for anything but a record breaking fee or close to that, can't see any team paying so much, teams who can have players who are still playing at high level.
Madrid have Benzema who had probably his best season and rumors that they won't sign any big player this season
Barca won't sign him, they have made statement that players have to adjust their wages to the revenue.
Juventus will never pay that much money on a single player.
PSG have signed Icardi and dont think Kane will even think of signing for French league team.
Bayern have Lewa who had his best ever season.
City are realistic option but they still have Aguero who is top class. Kane really made it hard by signing big contract. Maybe this is what he wants, playing for Spurs, so credit to him for showing the loyalty to the club.
Keane taking the piss while Jose is there is epic
I think Matt Le Tissier is a candidate for that honour.If Spurs actually did win the EL, I think lifting a trophy would be enough to keep Kane on board for at least another season.

Meh I don’t agree, but I can see some fans frustrations. The stadium was simply a necessary outlay that due to the recent economic goings on will be a burden for longer than was forecast.Wonder what @InLevyITrust think of this.
