| here we go ~ helder postiga signs for spurs in 2003
~ a new dawn has broken, has it not? |
darren anderton guessing correctly what we all think
of him.
|
signed in august 2002 for 7m from leeds ~ a wicked footballer
& very good to have him on board.
|
 |
 |
|
| now i saw this one as a bit of a bullshitter ~ steffen
freund, never that good, SO wore his love of the club on his sleeve |
neil sullivan ~ a good keeper i think and deserves
a first team slot somewhere ~ but lost his place to kasey keller,
then went to become new chelsea's #2 or #3 |
the 11m purchase from dynamo kiev and subsequent mishandling
of this tremendous little fella cost spurs dear at the start of the century
~ he was supposed to be amazing, he'd scored sackfuls of goals in the
Champions League, yet in came this record signing that sort of never bubbled
like he could have ~ the question is, why didn't he become the legend
he was supposed to be?
|
 |
|
|
| stephen carr, my lord |
ben thatcher ~ not ALL that good ~ george graham spent
a fortune on the psychotic defender with one mode of operation ~ chaaaarge!
~ then glenn hoddle let him quietly slip away to leicester city, where
he no doubt truly belongs.
you wonder will spurs ever get a good left-back?
|
1992-2004 ~ the anderton years.
|
 |
 |
|
| robbie keane ~ 2002-3 the guy whose name you got to
say when koreans ask who plays for you |
not sure what he's playing at here ~ but an elegant
defender & first england call-up 2003 ~ of course, he never got into
the team but one day HE MIGHT |
it's always raining on rebrov but you (well, i) can't
help liking him.
|
 |
 |
 |
| mbulelo mabizela ~ captain of south africa ~ signed
by hoddle in 2003 |
gary doherty ~ tottenham's minister of bump and grind
~ here scoring a goal of no finesse away to man city in the fa cup, 2004 |
reasonably half decent simon davies |
 |
 |
 |
| timothee atouba ~ signed in 2004 ~ well he's a big
guy |
2004 ~ tottenham's new manager jacques santini ~ he's
got big eyes so i like him |
ledley king |
|
|
 |
|
|
frederic kanoute on the ball
|
goals galore ~ good to have u onboard |
rohan ricketts kissing the badge ~ why do they bother? |
 |
 |
 |
| hoddle, faced by some guys with grey hair |
grayster |
martin jol, who took over in 2004 |
 |
 |
 |
| ledley |
urgh. |
pedro mendes |
 |
 |
 |
| taricco ~ 1999-2004 |
best keeper we've had since clemence |
dean richards ~ 8.1m and looking amazing before mysteriously
going shit ~ finally it transpired that he had a brain injury and had to
retire from the game ~ liked him |
 |
 |
 |
| michael brown ~ 2004-2006. grafter on the edge of the
squad bought from man city and sold to fulham. popular player wherever he
goes as he gives his all. |
tottenham sign a korean! lee young-pyo, 2005-date.
here he is in an advert in his home country for the 2006 world cup. |
freddie kanoute ~ 2003-2005 ~ i loved the guy but spurs
went and sold him to sevilla, where he went onto become a world beating,
uefa cup winning & scoring in the final, league-leading goalscorer.
we replaced him with rasiak (oops) and then mido. this guy could really
play though. |
 |
 |
 |
| daniel levy and frank arnesen ~ guys upstairs in the
00s when spurs done their long awaited surge upwards. arnesen got poached
by cheslea, but even that wasn't a nighmare as it brought in something like
8m in compensation. that's why levy is clapping. |
tottenham win the peace cup, 2005 ~ nice to see 'em
play in the world cup stadium... |
andy reid...good player but lasted not all that long,
about 2005-6. |
