was reading a post on glory glory and realised that spurs may actually be quite fucked for next season.
1) Harry gone to England.
2)
Modric probably leaving
3) Bale attracting vultures to pick at the rotting Spurs caucass
4) Ledley King (31), verge of retiring
5) Brad Friedel (40) maybe retiring
6) Carlo Cudicini (36) maybe retiring
7) Gallas (34), Nelsen (34), Parker (31), all retiring/nearly retiring/past it
8 ) Adebayor the only semi decent striker at the club returning to his parent club
9) Defoe leaving due to lack of playing time
10) trying to fund a new stadium
so they need to:
-attract a top class manager.
-quite possibly need to buy at least 1 top quality goalkeeper
-need possibly 2 top quality centre backs
-need to buy a top quality striker
-possibly buy a replacement for modric
-buy serious backup or competition for places for the likes of Lennon
we joke that redknapp fucks up every club he's been too but it may actually happen to spurs.
he's bought a lot of old players in because he wants short term success, and a majority of these are on big wages. with no 4th spot guaranteed their finances could be in a mess. it will be a summer of upheaval and instability for sure. they have no system to fall back on.
my only worry is if levy gets a top class international manager in like klopp, loew or rijkaard. he's no fool and knows whats best for the club.
we can only hope they fall away like villa
