I almost jokingly added that at the bottom, as that's what all my Man United supporting mates say about Kane. It's a team game though and team honours are no indication of individual quality. Plus, he's only just 21.


When it comes to individual honours however, 2 PFA Young Player of The Year Awards in his first two premier league seasons is much more indicative of quality.



But, i'll put bitter united fans to one side and carry on as it's his birthday. Your club's greatest ever has nice things to say about him.




Xavi


"I can understand why Tottenham fans think he's the next Paul Gascoigne"



Pele


"The players that stand out are Alli and Kane, they represent the new generation for England"



Frank Lampard


"We talk about Hazard being the best in the league, I don't think Alli is far off that"



Sir Alex Ferguson


"He is probably the best young midfielder I have seen in many years, probably going back as far as Gascoigne"



Lee Dixon


"If Mesut Ozil had half of what fiery Alli had got, he'd be ten times a better player"

Yeah, once they or Barca come calling, it might be a different story. I'd like to think that we've got a tight knit squad who want to see things through with Pochettino, but when they come knocking I guess it's difficult to say no. We'll see.

Bitter? Behave. I'm old enough to have seen Utd relegated, then perennial league also rans. I never expected to see us win the league once, let alone all what we subsequently did. If we never win anything again in my lifetime I'll die a very happy fan...

Wow, such a bitter response. It was a little joke. A raw nerve seems to have been touched. ;-)

Not happening. None of you jealous knobjockeys have been paying attention. Spurs are no longer a selling club. All our top young players have been signing new contracts. There is a team spirit at Tottenham that you can only dream about at your clubs. We've got great players and a fantastic manager. The best training facilities in the world and we'll soon have a stadium to match. We're on the up and we'll soon be winning trophies and top players will want to play for a club like ours.

Unbearable I expect. Imagine being a Spurs fan since the early 80's when most of your mates are Arsenal, United, Liverpool, Chelsea and City fans. I've only had West Ham fans to take it out on since 1981 ffs.


Edit: But not as unbearable as Jah it seems ;-)

I was three years old when we won the double so yes I will go proper fooking mental if we ever do something similar.

The Cup Winners Cup was the first thing that seemed to trigger

the rest IIRC.


Just googled and it was 1991

I'd seen Utd win FA Cups pre-Fergie (Liverpool, Brighton, Everton) but never the league.

Utd's first trophy under Fergie was also the FA Cup in '90 v Palace. That led to the ECWC in '91 and then we won the League Cup in '92, before finally winning the league in '93. I didn't have to Google any of that ;-)...

I was at the Brighton reply, the Everton one and the Palace replay. The Everton one was fantastic due mostly to a great winning goal and memorable for the first player ever to be sent off in a Final I think. I also had the pleasure of going to the Coventry cup final with my Spurs supporting brother. Hehe.
Kelvin MacKenzie has always been a vile, arrogant prick and The Sun has always been a vile, disgusting rag that I quite frankly wouldn't wipe my arse on. But you're right, the story should have been spiked before it went to print. The editor is just as culpable as MacKenzie in letting his hate filled column be published.

    • I've been there for lunch a few times and the home cooked asian food (as part of Sweat Dreams cafe) is genuinely great and a must try. I think the food side of the business has been slow to be noticed but people are now realising what is actually hidden in plain sight.  As for the Aroma Lab coffee ... it is excellent, they are very welcoming and friendly (and unpretentious!). This Australian coffee snob is mightily impressed!!  
    • Do you mean put out things like live mealworms for the parents to feed to the young? Or that the parents will eat the food you put out and therefore can save "wild" live food for the young rather than eating it themselves? On another matter, several weeks ago I moved my bird feeders to another part of my (very small) garden because the area they were in was totally scratched up by pigeons, and I lost several plants I had had for decades and was very fond of 😭 It is now just bare earth with no plants,  and I've got to start again. And block up a fox hole in one corner. I suspect the foxes are tunnelling beneath the garden, as there are several holes. I hope the ground doesn't suddenly collapse beneath me! I cleaned everything and put in fresh seed, but so far all that has visited the new area (that I have actually seen)  is one rather fat sparrow. And a cat. Sitting hopefully beneath the feeders 🤬 No goldfinches (I have a niger seed feeder and have seen the occasional goldfinch in the garden) and no tits, though I've heard both blue tits and great tits nearby. Plus the flock of sparrows who used to come and seem to have deserted the garden. Hopefully they will find the feeders. I've cut back some of the greenery, which doesn't help, as they have less shelter. 
    • So when will we find out? Is it going to be a big reveal on some specified day? If not, why can't you tell us now?! (I'm presuming you mean the new boss of Franklins. It would be too much to hope for that the Palmerston had a miraculous return to one of its better past incarnations. Never mind the food, they could bring back the lovely quirky painted column things of over twenty (?) years ago, and remove the hideous "art" that has sadly been installed. I feel really sorry for the staff, because it can't be just my partner and I who rarely go there any more. I suppose the only hope is that it does so badly that it changes hands again and that the new hands have better taste. Sorry, all off topic.)
    • I would hope that is extremely unlikely. If people accidentally vote for someone, that's their own fault, isn't it?
