Son, Mason, Adebayor, Chadli, Jenas, Dempsey, Gomes, Gallas ... ? You are either on a wind up or blind with those.
Maybe "players I didn't like" for a few of them, but worst ... really?

Bentley scored that volley. Sissoko couldn't cross the road let alone convert forty yard nose bleeder.
Issue is, I feel that £15-17m was worth a lot more in 2008 than £30m is in 2016. In footballing inflation terms anyway. The prize money for the premier league back then was around a tenth of what it is now, meaning Bentley was (to us) the equivalent of a £70m+ transfer now.
I don't fully blame Bentley, as I think he was the victim of a Harry Redknapp agenda, but we still got very little out of him and he left for free - it's too early to write off any current player, least of all our summer signings.
You don't really understand football, do you?
I feel no inner guilt about my impression of Sissoko.
Quite what Poch sees in him is utterly beyond me.
I wouldn't let him in the ground, let alone the dressing room
He probably could on rugby terms, but I wouldn't bank on him hitting Wembley stadium from that distance
We bought the Jonah Lomu of his generation
Are you 5 ?
You must be really young.
Fast, very fast too fast for his own good.
Says he's too young for the Jol era, but puts Carrick in his best team.
Yes.
Technically inferior, poor decision making, poor work rate, . . . Not what you would expect from €30m.
Don't get me wrong, in all of his highlights reels I can't see anything that suggests he is good at the kicking aspect of the game, but he looks so effective on his game. The rugby comparison is quite valid, as it's almost like having a player who could pick up the ball in defence and run the length of the pitch with it. Last season we so desperately needed a player who could smash through teams who parked the bus, and he's one who can - I just don't think it's ever going to work for him if Poch plays him like Eriksen or Alli - he needs to be sat next to Wanyama/Dembele, but there's too much competition there.
I feel I was a bit biased. That was maybe a list of Spurs players I dislike/disliked for different reasons. Some made significant contribution in a season or two during their spells at the club.
Not really, I'm 22.
