2010 is probably the best group of players in terms of ability, but I simply loved that 89-91 team, albeit with Erik in goal. Mimms was shite.
It was the 89-91 team that cemented my obsession and love for Tottenham Hotspur. The Hummel home and away shirts. Lillywhite and yellow perfection. We were pacey, exciting, vulnerable but exiting. White Hart Lane was a very fun place to be. We had goals too. Lineker and Gazza obvs., but Paul Allen, Paul Stewart, Walsh, David Howells and even Vinny Samways were capable of scoring crackers. God I wish I could be watching that lot every week.
Yes, 2020 is supposedly a more complete set of international stars, but their effort and cohesion is nothing on the Venables set. Fuck, that's left me feeling nostalgic, old, emotional... and depressed at the money-driven plastic mess of the current era.
AMF.
