    It is why ‘just play the kids’ is rarely actually a good idea. There is a HUGE difference between youth and men’s football as I always say (from experience).

    Transfermarkt. I went to watch Spurs home and also most away games back then. Ginola rarely had a really big impact on the game. What some people now seem to call a ‘match of the day player’.

    We do have assists from Ginola's era. I have posted them in the combined G&A numbers (which are lower than Johnson's, Kulu's, Son's and Maddison's).

    Mohammed Kudus

    I think it was before this that they wouldn't sell us Bellamy even though he wanted to come to Spurs and we agreed to pay the transfer fee they demanded, they ended up selling him to Emirates Marketing Project for a lower fee than we were offering.

    I think Poyet was a better player than Ginola, not as easy on the eye but I think he was more effective. I agree on the other two though. I don't really remember Ginola being 'double marked', though I do remember him waiting on the touchline for somebody to pass him the ball (I don't remember...

    It's not that I particularly rate Johnson. I think he is alright, though sure I absolutely rate him as being a lot better than you give him credit for (always find it weird when people want to discount certain types of goals?... really strange?) It is more just that I didn't particularly rate...

    As I said.... Great to watch, but far from a great player. A goal every 8.5 games is an incredibly poor return for a player that refuses to defend. Also - just about every player in the game create countless chances that aren't converted. I've seen a video reel of the number of (missed)...

    I know I keep banging on about him but Enzo Millot would be perfect competition for Maddison.

    Levy's Plan

    There were numerous times that Mourinho should've been sacked, in fact he should never have been employed by Spurs in the first place, but the farcical decision to get rid of a great man and manager in Pochettino to employ that washed up old narcissist is a whole different discussion. However...

    Levy's Plan

    Jose wanted to rest players in the game a few days before the Cup final to give us the best possible chance of winning it, it is what got him the sack.

    Son and Kulu both significantly better than Ginola. Johnson certainly far more effective. Ginola didn't play to team instructions and didn't defend his opposite number. He went on some lovely mazy dribbles and scored a few worldies. I loved watching him. However, the top teams didn't want...

    Ginola was great to watch but was a long way from being a great player.

    Indeed. One of the best articles I saw on this was from Martin Jol way back in 2006 World Cup. To very briefly summarise, he said that formations are very fluid and really don’t matter, what is of real importance is your defensive/offensive split. I.e. how many players have primarily a...

    I wouldn’t. If fans of other clubs came on here they would decide that Hojbjerg was a poor player for example. I’d always just use my own eyes to judge a player.

    I would imagine the conversation with the agent went a bit like this. Agent: I have lots of interest in my client from big clubs who would pay him big wages Bournemouth: We're not going to sell him for less than £70m Agent: In which you need to pay him an amount commesurate with him being a...

    I'm not sure I'd take the opinion of many football fans, most have little clue of what they are watching or the subtleties of the situation. After Kudus' first season West Ham fans thought he was world class. The truth is somewhere in between - he is a player with lots of talent but some...
