I used to really want Mellberg in his prime he could have won a lot more in his career if at a better club

Back on my good side now for sure. Olof the Viking. Such a competitor who always delivered for Sweden. At his prime I often wished he'd join us. Maybe he wasn't good enough, maybe he was but I know he'd have contributed leadership and attitude at the back.
 
Harry Kane wants long-term stay at Spurs as he dismisses move talk
By

David Hytner The Guardian

Harry Kane sees himself being at Tottenham Hotspur “for a very long time” and is fiercely determined to win trophies at his boyhood club. The striker, who has enjoyed a sensational breakthrough season, scoring 30 goals at club level and one more on his England debut, has been linked with Manchester United, who are primed to embark upon a summer spree.

Kane, however, signed a new contract at the beginning of February that ties him to White Hart Lane until 2020 and, speaking on The Clare Balding Show on BT Sport 1, which airs on Thursday at 8pm, he made it clear where he sees his future.

“Spurs is where I’m at and where I plan to be for a very long time,” Kane said.

“We’ll be looking to win some good trophies in the future. I want to keep progressing and keep getting better. This season has been crazy and more than what I ever expected to do so early on but it’s happened, and it’s how you deal with it.

“I am hoping to go on and win many trophies for Spurs and for England. That’s always been the aim since I was a kid, dreaming of lifting the trophy one day for them. I want to be a player that does everything he can to reach his ability and I’ll keep working hard. I want to win trophies.”

Kane reflected on his dream season, in which he has been named as the PFA’s Young Player of the Year. He said the highlight was his debut for England against Lithuania in March, when he came on as a substitute to score after 79 seconds. His favourite domestic moment was the two-goal performance in the 2-1 derby victory over Woolwich in February.

“The thing that stands out is the England debut and the England goal,” Kane said. “Any footballer growing up wants to represent their national side and to do that and score on my debut at Wembley is just what dreams are made of. I don’t think it’s sunk in even yet.

“The club highlight was the derby, it was my first north London derby as well. To win 2-1 the way we did, and scoring a goal so late on – it was just incredible to share that with my team.”

Kane will go to the European Under-21 Championship with England in the summer and he agreed that he would be a marked man next season.

“I think so,” he said. “But that’s part of it. I’ve got to cope with that. A lot of people say second seasons are harder than the first because people are now expecting you to do stuff so, yes, it’s down to me to work hard and improve.”

 
He is also the first player since Lineker in 1992 to score 30+ goals in all competitions and the first in the Premier League era to score 30+ goals too.

What a season.

Epic picture ... Reminds me of those VDV and Eriksen images too.

All except the EL qualifying and his last PL goal ...


Crap music though ... People should just make them with the commentaries included - adds to the nostalgia, imo.

I feel a much better connection to the club, with all the players coming through the academy

I think that's the whole point of Poch's philosophy... when he ran over to the Spurs fans at Goodison on Sunday (and was greeted by a rousing 'Yiddo') it was REAL, it didn't feel forced or sound fake, it wasn't badge kissing/doing ridiculous pre-arranged finger/hand shape goal celebrations 'cos your sponsorship company asked you to... it was none of that... this was HEARTFELT and GENUINE.

...in an age where Footballers and their clubs seem ever more distant from the fans, the ONE SUREFIRE WAY to regain that connection (and trust) is to promote from within...
no co-incidence that the 'One of our own' song has caught the imagination...
I can see it being sung to MANY more players over the next few seasons.
