Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
- Darren Anderton - Fantastic Player - more appearances than his nickname suggests
- Sol Campbell - Tosser / Liar / Self important sub human scum.
- Robbie Keane - Legend who fucked off to Liverpool. Was saved by Harry and then shot himself in the foot by going to Dublin. Stupid - very sad how it all went for him.
- Jermain Defoe - a better sub I can’t name. That’s a sad thing to say.
- Aaron Lennon - great on his day. Which was not often enough towards the end. Could be very lazy
- Tom Huddlestone - Good player. Not quite good enough for a top 4 side.
- Michael Carrick - not sure I ever saw many better midfielders in a Spurs Shirt. His loss was huge at the time.
- Wilson Palacios - never recovered from the worst possible family sadness.
- Dimitar Berbatov - Wanker. Refused to play when we really needed him. Never forgive him.
- William Gallas - Top Level pro. Did a good job. Under rated I feel.
- Rafael van der Vaart - one of the very very best. Ever. No doubt
- Luka Modrić. He no like the chicken badge. Is a much better player now than he was for us, but still was majestic at times. The way he left was not good and that Chelsea shit means he is no “legend”
- Gareth Bale. Fantastic. No other word does him justice. Doubts about his loyalty as left when the money men came.
- Emmanuel Adebayor. Good player. Too much baggage. JuJu = no no
- Nabil Bentaleb - no mark. Average at best.

Shut up Arcy you melt - I’m spectacularly uninterested in your opinions. I’m pretty sure you’re not even a spurs fan

Quite a few on here. At least he’s one who admits it
- Darren Anderton - injured all the time. Above average talent. A good player but doesn't deserve his legend status.
- Sol Campbell - Great guy. Loyal to a fault. Honest. He basically embodied the club.
- Robbie Keane - Wonderful forward. He was able to unlock any defence on his day. With him on the park you knew you stood a chance. Wonderful skill.
- Jermain Defoe - Big talent but only played for contract renewals or to return to the club. Later he played out his skin to make an impact before his playing days were out.
- Aaron Lennon - Better than people give him credit for. I thought a young Lennon had more natural talent than Raheem Sterling.
- Tom Huddlestone - Wrong shape.
- Michael Carrick - Magnificent midfielder. Brilliant vision and, when he was with us, able to make game changing runs forward.
- Wilson Palacios - Great energy. Career was blighted by bizarre gangland incidents affecting his family at home.
- Dimitar Berbatov - Maverick.
- William Gallas - Decent value.
- Rafael van der Vaart - Tremendous craft. Great control and tenacity.
- Luka Modrić - Surely you've seen Modric? The wee cunt is the final word in midfield skill and resilience.
- Gareth Bale - A unique player. One of the game's greats. Why am I telling you what Gareth Bale is like? Wtf is this?
- Emmanuel Adebayor - good cunt and a bad cunt. Certainly a greedy cunt.
- Nabil Bentaleb - Underrated. Probably had attitude problems. Fuck knows.
Modric refused to go to the US Tour that year and only reason he didn’t end up at Chelsea was because of Levy. Bale also refused to play. Berbatov was the best striker we’ve had since Jurgen and up to Harry. Berbatov has only ever said nice things about us and even came to the Lane Finale. Shameful revisionism.
On my phone - will post tomrrowArcspacE
Still waiting to hear your thoughts my friend.
- Darren Anderton - cant say, didnt watch
- Sol Campbell - cunt
- Robbie Keane - great player in my eyes, but a completely unnecessary move to Pool
- Jermain Defoe - still wish we wouldn't have sold him, often offside, but still a very clinical finisher
- Aaron Lennon - the prototype of an English winger
- Tom Huddlestone - Busquets has posters of him hanging in his bedroom
- Michael Carrick - cant say, didnt watch him for us
- Wilson Palacios - just a hard tackler, thats it
- Dimitar Berbatov - hold no grudge against him, terrific player, understood him leaving us (Bayer 2001)
- William Gallas - brought experience
- Rafael van der Vaart - fantastic two seasons, but we did sell him at the right moment
- Luka Modrić - world class midfielder
- Gareth Bale - worked his way up, excellent for us, Real ruined him as a player
- Emmanuel Adebayor - technically gifted and also a nutcase
- Nabil Bentaleb - huge potential, injury prone
Tom Huddleston was the best passer of a ball I have seen since Hoddle. Shame he was limited by his lack of pace and turning circle of a JCB!
FUCKEN lolling like fuck.
- Darren Anderton - loved this man. Great player, shame about the injuries.
- Sol Campbell - loved him and then he hurt me. Hurt all of us. What a cunt. And a fucking Tory to boot. Fuck him.
- Robbie Keane - genius, brilliant, loved him.
- Jermain Defoe - not quite Robbie Keane, but a proper Yiddo.
- Aaron Lennon - proper good bloke, Yiddo etc. but disappointing quality.
- Tom Huddlestone - impressed occasionally. I've heard he's a nice guy, but so what really.
- Michael Carrick - quietly brilliant, a bit like Eriksen. Can we have him back please?
- Wilson Palacios - nope.
- Dimitar Berbatov - genius, not consistent enough, went to ManU...uggh
- William Gallas - meh
- Rafael van der Vaart - loved this man, such talent.
- Luka Modrić - zomg sooo talented, incredible player. And then he got even better at Rmad.
- Gareth Bale - proper magic from this lad, shame he left, but now a 21st C sicknote.
- Emmanuel Adebayor - oh shut up
- Nabil Bentaleb - quite liked him, if Poch hadn't sold him, he'd be very useful right now
Anderton - class but played in a wank Spurs team
Sol - Was immense for us but an ill-advised move destroyed what would have been legend and hero status at the club.
Keane - Never was too enthusiastic about him. Preferred Defoe.
Defoe - Loved him, reliable finisher who scored some lovely goals. Should have started more games for England.
Lennon - Loved him when he burst on to the scene then thought he was vastly overrated shortly after.
Tom Huddlestone - Same as Lennon but completely different player and found him overrated for other reasons (lazy, unfit, slow)
Michael Carrick - Everything we wanted Huddlestone to be and more. Less talented than Huddlestone but far superior tactically, defensively and much more intelligent.
Palacios - One of my favourite players of all time! No joke! I used to love him and Zokora in midfield (some people won't agree...) but his circumstances was so tragic. Genuinely thought he'd be a star after moving to us.
Berbatov - Sulky cunt but one of the best and most exciting strikers i've seen at Tottenham. Technically superior to Kane but was 30 times less hard working.
Gallas - Loved him in real life, hated him on FIFA (never won a single header the midget cunt).
Van der Vaart - Nutmeg on Wilshere, goals against Woolwich, absolute legend
Modric - One of the best midfielders in the world when with us, now a top 3 midfielder in the world with Real. What's not to like?
Bale - Admit it, we were a 1 man club when he was here... he was that good! Love him and would love to see him back. Him and Kane would get us 80 goals in a year alone.
Adebayor - Never a fan
Bentaleb - Why is he even in the same list as the aforementioned names? Bad attitude and never really saw him play well. Overrated.

You've been demolished, mate - take it on the chin and go troll in the Mcaaan thread
- Darren Anderton - Slow, Unfit, Injured, Class
- Sol Campbell - No
- Robbie Keane - Spurs legend in my eyes, crying when we won the cup is my memory of him
- Jermain Defoe - Another Spurs legend, one trick pony maybe, but scoring goals isn't a bad trick
- Aaron Lennon - Liked him, but he'll probably be remembered like Stephen Carr, just another player
- Tom Huddlestone - Never seen anyone strike a ball like him, looked like a world beater on his day, but looked like a world eater too often
- Michael Carrick - Quiet and effective in that midfield, gutted that we sold him but wont be someone to be remembered as a Spurs great
- Wilson Palacios - Couple of good games
- Dimitar Berbatov - Genius, he was our Cantona, could make an entire crowd gasp with a sublime touch
- William Gallas - Mercenary, but probably what we needed for the half a season he featured for us
- Rafael van der Vaart - Probably the most impact of any player in such a short time, just utter class and loved scoring agaisnt the other lot
- Luka Modrić - Kept the possession and recycled play as good as anyone, didn't assist or score enough.
- Gareth Bale - Stars lined up to make him immense, at a time where we needed one guy to take the responsibility of our attack he was there, with his pace at its peak and body not decimated by injury. Some nice games but again he's a player that I wont remember as fondly as others
- Emmanuel Adebayor - See William Gallas
- Nabil Bentaleb - Overrated by bloggers and heatmap fanciers.
- Darren Anderton - my grandfather had healthier legs and he survived the holocaust
- Sol Campbell - football aside, he’s a cunt with no friends for a reason
- Robbie Keane - good player, the move to Liverpool was a bit cunty though
- Jermain Defoe - they used to call him goals, they should have called him offsides
- Aaron Lennon - great team player and spirit
- Tom Huddlestone - Like a Challenger Tank, had its peaks and definitely good natural skill to him, but too much weight and he’s stuck in the mud.
- Michael Carrick - good lad, good attitude
- Wilson Palacios - can’t believe CL football with him
- Dimitar Berbatov - most elegant player we had, too bad he was a cunt with the move
- William Gallas - too little to leave a mark
- Rafael van der Vaart - shame he couldn’t stay for longer
- Luka Modrić - his purchase signaled our transition to a big gun again
- Gareth Bale - made a mistake and now he’s paying for it
- Emmanuel Adebayor - never liked him and he’s shite attitude
- Nabil Bentaleb - talented but overtly emotional
Carrick was fantastic when he played for us, for me he was the kind of player that never stood out on the pitch and that was the brilliance of him for me, did his job and did it well with no bells or whistles but when he didn't play you really noticed it. IMO he was just way to good for the team we had at the time and his move to UTD was a fantastic move for HIM. At the time it was a huge loss for us but that is football.Cheers
I see lots of love for Michael Carrick but...I honestly don't get it. Am I wrong and why?
Too early to add Walker to this list?
Obviously he threw his toys out of the pram during an important phase of the season. Got his 'dream' move and then postcard tweet with his own personal highlights of 2017 without a single mention of Spurs.
Cunt.
Same as Campbell, Berba (although I still love him!), Keane and arguably Modric.
I don't hate Bale for going to Real, not for a world record fee to boot. Dislike him more for his comments about England during the Euros. See you in Russia, Gareth. ;-)
The rest I like or am indifferent to. Ade and Gallas are Woolwich BUT they played for other clubs as well. Gallas gets a pass from me for THAT performance against AC Milan in the CL 2nd leg.

Yeah I agree plus isn't he earning close to 300k a week whilst living in Madrid?
Yeah he's received a few books from Madrid 'fans' but they boo everyone at some point!
I doubt he has ever regretted for one second leaving Spurs. Real are wankers but they're still the biggest club on the planet.
