Ever done something that you are simultaneously totally ashamed of but also really really happy you did it?

As we know, the squad are on a training camp in Barcelona this week. So obviously it would have been rude not to go out and hunt for some pictures. Thanks to my top internet stalking skillz, I worked out from Harry Kane's Insta account where they must be staying.

So, after some debate about whether this was a sensible or normal thing for two grown men to do, me and another local yiddo went out to see if we can track any of them down in the vicinity of the hotel.
The first pass wasn't successful and our attempt to blag into the hotel bar was met with derision from the concierge staff. It was clear we were just going to have to walk the streets.

Anyway, after about 10 minutes this happened...

I'd love to say we played it totally cool. However upon seeing Jan and the Moose i fell apart faster than an Woolwich title challenge. They were all good guys though. No pics but we also met dele alli and ben davies in Starbucks and had a little chat. Looking at Alli he is so young and skinny I have zero idea how he is the same guy running a premier league midfield. In fact they all look so ridiculously young that I now feel slightly stupid for investing so much emotion in watching them play football.

Sadly we couldn't track down the rest of the players and after walking past Son, Carroll, Mason etc. several times we began to feel a little too stalky so went home. Anyway you'll be glad to know they all think we have a good chance of winning the league. Also, I could practically feel the raw power of Dembele just by having my arm on his shoulder. He felt like he was made of steel and concrete.

Sorry for the braggy thread but I am a little over excited. Also a big 'fuck you' to the first person who replies with "I didn't realise you lived in Barcelona."

Anyone else ever acted like a pre-teen girl and gone out of their way to stalk spurs players?

I didn't realise you worked in Barcelona Jim ?
Seriously great job!
 
the craziest thing about this is since tweeting those two pics my notifications have gone into meltdown. Have never tweeted anything that's been so popular. Clearly been doing twitter all wrong and need to start stalking more famous people
Paparazzi Jim!

It just gets better and better...
in days of old, a team bonding trip away in Spain would've included drunken nights on the Costa del RSol,
:mong:
...sleazy pics of 'Birds' with their boobs out, draped all over the players in nightclubs,
:bentley:
...and if you were lucky, the occasional 'high-jinks' by the poolside...
:gazza:

Now it's Restaurants in Barcelona with everyone looking happy about it!
:keane::harrysmile:

Wowzers... how we've come on!

Pussies.
 
Can't compete with you but one of the trippiest experiences of my life was New Years Day several years back. Had been out in Birmingham and crashed in a Travelodge. Out at midday onto Broad Street, obviously hanging out of my arse. Pretty much an empty street except for this mob ahead in matching tracksuits. My mate starts making the cult noises from Grand Theft Auto (picture below for you kids who might be too young). Who are these matching dicks out together in the street at this time on New Years Day? Obviously it was the entire Tottenham squad out for a wonder as we were playing Villa away that evening. Must admit I melted a bit, they all seemed a bit on edge at random hungover casuals walking up to them. Got acknowledgements from Keano and Dawson though.
