Subscriber Storts+ 2,424 Posted February 18, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, Lucas said: Sorry but it's absolutely ludicrous as to why Tottenham didn't get a striker in the past month. They already had the knowledge Kane was out for possibly the rest of the season and had the time to resolve that. They obviously tried to find a striker going off transfer rumours, but didn't get anything over the line and in the end, assumed they could get by with Lucas and Son, but neither are actual forwards. Would have thought Jose would have wanted a striker desperately but can only assume his hands would have been tied. A striker surely had to have been the target, at whatever cost, and now they will pay the price heavily. You can't tell me there isn't someone out there they could have got. It's ridiculous. Such a shame really when they had started to turn the corner. I actually disagree with you slightly. The ludicrous thing wasn’t not getting a striker in January, price inflated, nobody decent available. Nobody we wanted long term. The problem is not addressing it in the summer or the one before. It’s a failure of forward planning and this is absolutely a problem of our own making but the chairman and board Although to have two key players breaking their arm in single season is really bad luck Edited February 18, 2020 by Storts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why they'd hire Mourinho after a pretty disastrous start to the season, then sack him after he's taken this squad that has looked lost since day one of the season... while he's also dealing with an injury crisis. That would just be an expensive way to waste money and for Spurs to show they can go through two good managers in the period of 1 season if their squad doesn't seem ready or up for the fight of a long difficult season. Don't see the point in that - especially if they're not going to give him time to really transform the squad a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ 5,360 Posted March 15, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted March 15, 2020 Jan Vertonghen: Family of Spurs defender held at knifepoint during a burglary Jan Vertonghen's family was held at knifepoint as four armed men burgled his home while he was on Champions League duty with Tottenham on Tuesday. Police confirmed men wearing balaclavas forced their way into the house while his wife and children were inside. The 32-year-old Belgium defender was in Germany for the second leg of Spurs' last-16 defeat against RB Leipzig. "We have been supporting Jan and his family through this terribly traumatic time," said a Spurs spokesperson. "We encourage anyone who has any information to come forward to help the police with their investigation." A Met Police spokesman said: "Police were called to a residential address in NW3 at 7.49 pm on 10 March to a report of a burglary. "Officers attended. It was reported four men wearing balaclavas, armed with knives, had forced entry to the property and stolen a number of items before leaving. "Nobody was injured. The suspects had left the scene before officers arrived. There have been no arrests and inquiries continue." Vertonghen is the latest footballer to be targeted by criminals. In December burglars broke into the London home of Crystal Palace defender, Mamadou Sakho, reportedly stealing valuables worth more than £500,000. Arsenal footballers Mesut Ozil and Sead Kolasinac were attacked by carjackers in July 2019, while Liverpool forward Sadio Mane had his house burgled while he was playing in a Champions League last-16 tie against Bayern Munich in February 2019. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51895453 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
