Having controversial opinions is all very well, but some opinions are just wrong - like saying Dembele or King weren't great players

That's not controversial, it's certifiable.
Agreed
And my season ticket was there for 2decades.
Our fans,in some cases,can be as deluded as some opposition fans say we are. Except west ham,as they talk bollocks...
Chick king isnt as great as we like to think,or indeed as it was.

A lot of Graham Souness's and Roy Keane's criticisms of us in the past have been justified.
The football under George Graham had improved greatly,just before he got the push...

Aurier was a solid, careful defender
As seen last night...
My assumption, he's one of these YouTube fans that watch clips. I used to watch King off the ball he was ridiculous at reading danger, very rarely went diving in late off his own error( did it a fair bit for someone elses). He was ridiculously good at deffending positionally he improved radically after a year alongside Naybet after which he just made it look piss easy. I think we'd never have kept him without the knee injuries. He was good enough to play for prime Barca Real Madrid... There's a game King played for England in a WC against France that France win 2-1 in the last minutes Zidane free kick. Folk who did not see him at his best should watch it, he absolutely bossed that game against some of the best attacking players ever.
King was a superb defender and leader.
But if he hadn't been as injury prone,would he be as universally liked with us as he is now.
IE would he have left to win trophies as well...

It's the sad truth Sean. I see an odd thing happening with the Spurs fan base where its becoming fashionable to under-rate him. I think its through association with the horrible Mourinho years. But it's a massive disservice to a player who (hope the Poch cult are sitting down) was better than Vertonghen and Alderweireld for us( let the record show I LOVE all three people I mention)he actually captained us to a trophy nor the mythical top four runner up badge we loved. Oh and he was epic in that game we won away to City to get champions league football in the first place.

Yep. One of the few who will always be a spurs Captain to me. Some who have held that privilege,were just guardians.
Daniel Levy is too old to understand the Konami Code, got it...Daniel Levy's has done a very good job as chairman of this club but it's been overshadowed by clubs who are using cheat codes to buy success with dirty money.

It's a tired debate.
BUT.... There's no escaping the fact that if you took the sports-washing scum out of the EPL we'd have 1 x EPL title, a few more domestic cups and another 4/5 seasons in the CL (and all the related prize money to spend!) to look back on which would mean a total re-evaluation of our ownerships so-called lack of success.
I'm not saying he isn't party responsible, I'm saying his attitude reflects the attitude of the boardroom.
