Just having fans locked out must be crippling them. If empty stadiums carries on United stand to lose £100m+, Spurs can't be far off that..

Spurs and Arsenal really rely on the amount of money they make on match days (especially their large corporate sections)

Also Spurs were counting on hosting NFL matches

COVID happened at an awful time for them

Never going to happen. Unless the arse drops out of football entirely, they'll be fine. So will the club.

Neither do particularly compared to most Arsenal around a quarter Spurs a fifth ours a bit less than a fifth. Its TV income that's so crucial roughly twice as much.

For Spurs its not being able to use the stadium to generate commercial income.

Hence why their major coup of the window was Joe Hart. Mourinho called it a magnificent window, though I’m sure he was taking the piss. His departure has begun in earnest.

Hojberg was £#%&!ing appalling yesterday. Doherty is decent, but £#%&!ing hell, a 29 year old lump of a RB as your main summer signing

Hojberg is the type of signing that screams Everton. That Everton instead have James Rodriguez in midfield and for once in their lives didn't wet themselves away to a top six side was a pleasant surprise. Ancelotti went under the radar last season but they could be a surprise package this season.

Few episodes in on the Mourinho doc (it's basically all about him).

Obviously very bitter. Never mentioned us when reporter asked him why he joined when he was known as Mr Chelsea. Also he says he was Mr Inter, Mr Porto, Mr Madrid.

Also confirms he tried to sign Eric Diet (which Dier also confirms). At least Woodward got something right in failing....

They wanted £50mil. We got Matic instead.

I think the opposite tbh

You can tell he still has massive respect for United imo.

And he desperately wanted to manage us from back when he was at Porto. He may be a both a bit of a @#%&! and past it, but i still think your assessment is correct.

He has £#%&!ing ZERO respect for United, if he did he wouldn't have done an interview after a Liverpool defeat saying he tells his son to go watch PSG..

He also wouldn't have sat in a presser after we had been knocked out of the champions league saying we should be used to it and bragging how he'd done it before ..

He's an arrogant, anti football virus

£#%&! him

Shouldn’t be a surprise given how much money the Everton owners have been chucking at the club.

He never recovered from Moyes getting the United job over him.

And on that at least, it is impossible not to feel some sympathy.
