Man we have not been lucky with wingbacks over these years
Ledley King played 21 times in 2011/12 and whilst not his best years has to be included in the best 11 of the decade.
Met the bloke whilst he was playing for Hull.
He absolutely gave his all for this club and was a really steady defender.
He still loves Spurs too and putting everything together, it’s a yes from me.
Top, top lad.
It's a good shout but as you said some of those 21 games he was well past his best. It was really hard to watch him in some of those final games. For the decade previous, he's the first name on the team sheet.
He was knackered by then, though clearly still had the vision and timing up to the end.
I'd put him in the team of the previous decade with the likes of Lennon, Keane and Defoe who also happened to overlap into the current decade.
Big problem is that whilst we have bought s fair few players in over the last 6 years only Son and Dele are arguably top quality, maybe Alderweireld too but most of the others have just made up the numbers. Lucky (?) we had the squad in place with Kane in the squad to greet him when he joined.
Nope, Dembele to me was a wasted talent, he could have been a lot more than he was and as it's a DM position I would rather go for Parker. Remember that Harry brought him in because he was a winner as well.Parker for Dembele? You are joking surely
And remember when ALL of the squad that appeared individually on Soccer Am over the last few years said Dembele was the best player in the squad (our best squad) and Pochettino compared him to Maradona etc.
So Scott Parker was brought in by Redknapp because he was a winner- what did he win?- the Intertoto cup with Newcastle.
No comparison for me and to say he was a wasted talent is nonsense. Dembele could defend and attack and he drove us to 3rd, 2nd and 3rd in the league. He was unique.
Did we miss Parker when he left as much as we have missed Dembele?

My post wasn’t even about that, it was lighthearted swipe at the notion Poch didn’t have a squad, and then someone leaving Bale the bench, another leaving out VDV or King etcto be fair this thread is a total setup for continuous arguments for Redknapp v Poch team
