My figures were the minimum I think Liverpool would sell for, wouldn't pay that price for either Downing or Henderson.

That highlights the distance the club was from reality when purchasing those players.

I don't get Daniel Levy at all. A few years ago Spurs were riding high under Martin Jol who was delivering consistently good league finishes and who was a popular character. But Levy chooses to whip the carpet away and employ the latest continental manager in fashion in Juande Ramos instead. Unproven in English football Ramos turned out to be one big flop. Great progression and visionary insight there Daniel. So then plain old Harry comes along and takes Spurs from bottom to champions league football. Not satisfied with his first blunder Levy now repeats the exact same mistake. Sacks a popular character who is delivering consistently good league finishes and employs the latest continental manager in fashion. A guy unproven in English football and who has already turned out to be one big flop. I think Levy is some kind of football snob or has delusions of grandeur or something.
harry was anything but a popular character even with spurs fans

He did turn the team around, he is an outstanding man-manager and coach and he's a real character.
Think people underestimate what a total and complete scumbag the man is supposed to be behind the scenes. My guess would be that when everything was going well he was more than willing to rub it in and hold Levy to ransom and the DL I met wouldn't hesitate to get his revenge if and when he sensed an opportunity and him and the money men at ENIC have such a long history he will be backed by them to the hilt.

If Spurs wanted a new man I reckon David Moyes had about the best credentials for the job. Yet Levy seems to have his head turned by the latest trend in continental fashion just like how a woman spots a nice pair of Italian shoes in a shop window. Spurs need to build a passionate team spirit with everyone fighting for each other if Levy wants to fulfill his lofty ambitions of league success. I don't know how romancing Ramos behind Jol's back, sacking Harry, and touting the club captain around achieves that togetherness feeling at the club. If Levy wants progression he shouldn't keep changing his manager. Moyes would have been a steady longterm marriage whereas AVB is more like frantic sex with a waitress in Puerto Banus. It wont last. Haven't we learnt anything from the waitress in Magaluf incident Daniel?

Zero chance Moyes would go to Spurs. He's just sitting on his hands til Fergie goes.

Forest sign Henri Lansbury from Arsenal. Don't know much about his abilities.
Any views from Hammers or Gunners fans?
