They also said that what Randy is wants in our next manager is a 'yes man'.I did agree with them in the respect that they said our ambitions have gone down. The club would never admit to that of course but given that breaking the top four is now harder than it was two years ago, and given that it's clear we won't be spending in the same way that we were two years ago, it's difficult to see how we're intending to catch and overtake Spurs and Man City.It's easy to state that the club's ambitions remain the same as they have always been, but how serious are we about doing everything we possibly can to achieve them?
Don't forget that Spurs have a European campaign they have to look out for with almost the same players at the moment which will add to the pressure on them now.

Spurs are better placed than we are.

Spurs are better placed than we are.And from all reports when we lose Milner we might gain Ireland who could be good for us (or not) plus £18mil. It is possible we have now gained a squad of players again.
A few people asked in midweek if the wage turnover would be an issue if the players on the bench might have a part to play. We will see in the next few weeks won't we.
I still can't forget that a week ago we needed to trim the wage budget and we had a squad that struggles to score goals. Has anything changed?
