What worries me is that there's a thin line between building something and just becoming the next Wigan, bobbing along and surviving on the cheap.
I don't think we are doing that yet but one thing I thought we really needed to do in the summer was buy better players than we had.
We didn't though, I suspect we've just bought more from the same place we did our shopping last year.
I worry that this is going to become another season of struggle when I see nothing to suggest technical improvement.
Spurs are now in a totally different galaxy to us, which I can accept but it makes me shudder when we get the ball and fail to string two passes together, as that's something we do far too much still.
