We couldn't have had a squad of more than 23 senior players without bringing back a club trained player. We could've brought in more suitable cover, but that would've been dependent on selling more unwanted squad players.

Selling unwanted players for this club (ie DL) always wants more than buying clubs willing to pay. Thus we dance around trying to get players, then can’t commit until sell unwanted, which mostly does not happen. Squad been a mess since late Poch days.
I accepted that we were still partway through the rebuild in the summer but it has backfired more than a little. I suppose, in hindsight, we should've binned off the cups but I know that no one wants that
I think it’s a perfect storm of Spurs luck has been entirely weighted to the cups, giving them more games, and a worse seeming position on the table to contend with. I’d still contend that with reinforcements on the way it could turn out to be a really good season.
I certainly think Ange could have rotated more during the earlier part of the season and never using Djed until he had no choice was weird but we don’t have a small squad. Very few PL teams have 25 senior pros.
We could have registered a player for PL and not put them on the EL list for the Group Stage. That has to be the future, if Ange is gonna run his players this hard
