Players made for Spurs

[Lilywhite9]

Over the years there's always been a few players I've been drawn to and you get this feeling they're going to join us at some point, they're just perfect fits.

Most recent for me is Eriksen, I was aware of him very early with Ajax and just felt it would happen.

Lennon was another when I first saw him.

Currently, Lamptey would be the player first time I saw him play would be the target so will be interesting if we get him in the end how he turns out.

Sterling is another I wouldn't be surprised to see with us at some point.

Who are the players you saw and just knew they were spurs players, for good or bad.

I also thought Zokora was going to be our top man when he arrived so I'm definitely not a legend detector...

 

[Sir Archibald Crooks]

Players that i feel would really suit us now are De Ligt, Lamptey, Neves and Raphinha. Ball players, which is what Tottenham should be about. Ergo i'm fully expecting us to sign Tarkowski, Traore and some lump up front.

 

[Twoleftfeet]

I thought Grealish would be a good fit for us.
I don’t want Sterling, another attitude problem.

 

[The Swellhead Spur]

Phil Jones

 

[Pzabbythethird]

Showing real intent would be signing Raphina and Neves this window, full stop. It would transform us.

 

[Zomb]

Riquelme.

Pre ENIC, we showed intent to sign Maradona and Platini, to go with Ardiles and Villa.

 

[Winksy8]

I get strong Spurs almost Moussa Sissoko (not a race thing) style vibes from Ibrahim Sangare and I think it goes down to the strong attitude and personality of the player.

 

[Cranston]

Berbatov.

 

[Ealesy]

Sissoko, Winks, Davies, Dier, Doherty

 

[FightingIllini]

I hope our paths may cross with a healthy Eberchi Eze down the line. We were such fools not to make that move.

 

[Dr Rocktopus]

If we're thinking of a Frankenstein's monster type of player based on the last 30 years I'd say:

The knees of Ledley

The turning speed of Huddlestone

The stomach of Peter Reid

The shooting ability of Zokora

The impact of Gilberto

The passing of Lloris

The attitude of Ghaly

The sobriety of Chiriches

The brains of Kyle Walker

The charisma of Jamie Redknapp

 

[Jenny Talia]

Matt Le Tissier is normally the answer.

 

[Football Chap]

I don't want him but I think we'll get Pickford on a free as a homegrown 2nd/3rd choice keeper in about 5 years when he's 32/33

 

[Zoidberg]

Jamie Redknapp (regrettably)

Scott Parker. Wish we'd got him a lot sooner.

Which are two very different players.

As for who do I think are nailed on typical Spurs kind of players, and by that I mean legendary Spursy flavoured glass missiles: Ledley King and Darren Anderton as prime examples. Jamie Redknapp would have fitted here if he'd of come sooner.

Edit: was so happy when we finally got Sessegnon considering how long we'd been chasing him...

Edit, edit: always genuinely happy to see an academy player break through.

Edit, edit, edit: favourites are the surprises, Modric, Rafa, Son etc

So you’re saying we should sign Jack Wilshere?

(He’s on a free )

 

[Dr Rocktopus]

In my lifetime I'd say what feels like a proper Spurs player is someone like Ledley or Ginola. Something effortlessly classy about both.

Or of course Mabbutt.

 

[Seven Sisters]

Perfect!

 

[AndriusTH]

Florian Wirtz, Matthjis de Ligt, Tariq Lamptey

 

[AndriusTH]

I felt that Reguilon will happen. And it happened.

What do you want guys for me to feel?

 

[Mrs Perryman]

David Ginola!
I remember the first time I saw him at a live game, obviously against Newcastle, and he left Dean Austin eating turf. Probably the only time I have celebrated an opposition goal .
Can't tell you how many of my friends rang me to see if I heard the news that we had signed him. One of the best days of my life!!
