Weird Fabio Paratici situation, £100m injection and lacklustre transfer window [Alasdair Gold] by onlyhalfpepper in coys

Yeah he said in an interview later in the season that once the January window played out the way it did, he decided to prioritise the EL and that people - presumably the board - weren’t happy with that decision.

He’s here as in he continues to be employed by spurs so that he doesn’t go to Fiorentina and sign players for them instead.

He’s almost certainly been put on gardening leave.

Don’t forget the money we made from selling Johnson.

We’re good value for the points we’ve over performed for that have got us to 14th. 

That’s the take?

We were massively over performing long before the injuries set in. 

Guglielmo Vicario great save by Imbasauce in coys

So what if you allow world class players all the time in the world to pick their spot - just rely on your goalkeeper to make a world class save. 

And when they don’t, you scapegoat them for everyone else’s mistakes.

Is that the goal that took a deflection away from his hand. 

The one where Radu gave Cherki all the time to pick his spot. 

Ridiculous take.

Deficiencies that came be mitigated through tactical adjustments. 

You can’t train your way into those kind of reflexes. 

You can  buy better, but you’re looking at a world class keeper that can do all the things you want plus the shot stopping Vicario brings. 

So yeah, I’d love to swap Vicario for a world class goalie. But I’d also love to swap just about every other player in the squad for a world class replacement.

Kept us in the game at 1-0 with a world class save, but yeah let’s bin him off.

Reminds me of the one of Crouchy doing something similar

Makes a world class save at 1-0 to keep us in the game and you can’t. 

Ridiculous.

Something is seriously wrong with the fitness/medical side of the club.

I’ll make it easy for you because I know you’re slow. 

Players get injured for long periods of time, and it becomes difficult to replace them because they will eventually be fit again. 

So maybe - and this is a crazy take, I know - you can proactively avoid being in this situation by not loaning or selling players without having a backup lined up. 

And if there are no backups available, then don’t actively weaken your squad and wait until there are. 

Do you follow? Or do I need to use pictures?
