Pochettino’s transfer window complaints aren’t getting sympathy from Spurs fans

This summer has seen absolutely no action from Tottenham. The club have failed to sign a single player yet and whilst it looks like Wilfried Zaha could be close to a move, Mauricio Pochettino has commented claiming that the early window closure for Premier League clubs puts them at a disadvantage. You can read these comments on ESPN.

Whilst Pochettino may have a point about the window closing early, there’s no way the Tottenham fans are allowing the Argentine gaffer to get away with this as an excuse for the fact that they’re yet to sign a player. At the time of writing, only Burnley and Tottenham are yet to sign a player this summer, with Everton’s capture of Richarlison taking them off of that unfortunate list last week.

If the Lillywhites do end the window without bringing any new faces in it will put them at an instant disadvantage. The fans would have been hoping for some movement and early. When Pochettino signed his new deal it was rumoured that he would have money to spend this summer and he was looking to get his business done early. Now, though, it seems that was a load of rubbish as we sit just nine days away from deadline day with no new faces in N17.

Windows been open 10 weeks, surely such a well run club would be on it from the start if not before, frustrating times.
