Rebrov as well, got 12 goals in his first season and looked decent enough. He then barely played because Hoddle stupidly signed 33 year old Sheringham and Rebrov got marginalised and lost all confidence.
I wouldn't go by that maybe if he played with better players in a better league he'd do better.Yup Bent was actually OK, just average for us given the price tag at the time. Janssen is on 1 in 5 in the Mexican league currently (including a hat trick in one game), he wasn't good enough for what we wanted, as I've written very many times.
Racist?He needed a proper partner, but anyway he's a racist so fuck him.
Will he come and tolerate being a bench warmer though?
I read that he wants to get back in the England team.He wont do that being Kane's spare part.
That's the problem we have.No established decent age striker will do that.
We either have to use a youngster looking to prove himself or an old war horse coming to the end of his days.
Or change the way we play.
Is this one of those times when Twitter is gospel again?It feels like the late 90's when we were signing players like Leonhardson, Perry, Thatcher
We need new owners, a new vision
yh but Deeney is a big lad and mourinho loves itI can see them both playing, whereas Deeney would just be a bench warmer.
Wilson is class compared to D
He is not better than either Bent or Rebrov the rest...well yes.I don't want to see Troy Deeney in a Spurs shirt.
But for the record he's probably better than a lot of the shit I've seen in a Spurs shirt.
Rasiak
Rebrov
Postiga
Zamora
Andy Booth.....
Janssen
Soldado
Darren Bent
Saha
Frazier Campbell
I get the snobbery that Deeney should be beneath us, but he's better than all of the above players, many of whom were welcomed with open arms by the fanbase.
Well obviously, I'm not talking about his time at Man Utd because that has zero bearing on his time at Spurs.
By the time we got Saha he was washed up. He played 10 games total and scored 3 goals. I remember one good performance against Newcastle a game I was at, beyond that it was clear he was past his sell by date. So for Spurs it was a pointless signing.
And Rebrov was far too light weight for the premier league, bullied off the ball constantly. Wasn't cut out for the PL.
If you want to call my list laughable fair enough that's your opinion, but at least argue in good faith. I clearly wasn't talking about Saha at other clubs.
Started by a trollThis thread is cancer.
Didnt he do porridge for knocking his then GF about? If he did and also if he didnt... No thanks.
plus his head is unusually large,somewhat pumpkin like,,
Yep. Its not working to a budget or any excuse that will be made. Its simply not even trying if we end up with so.eone like Deeney. No imagination or creative thought. We let Llorente go 14 months ago for heavens sake this hasnt suddenly be sprung on us.Nah f this. Why just why. Honestly this will be up there with Nelson and saha for me
He's a nasty piece of work.He doesn’t actually sound like that big a cunt tbh.
