I always enjoy bumping threads like this. Fantastic to see that Bostock for example, got more votes than Bale on the poll I went with Obika - I really don't know why! I wonder if we started a similar thread now, with players like Carroll, Mason, Coulibaly, Smith, Pritchard etc, who would 1. get the most votes now, and 2. who turns out the best. I wonder if we would be completely wrong again. Edit: Incidentally, Caulker and Livermore, who are arguably the most recent breakthroughs, didn't even cross our minds then despite being at the club.
what a hilarious read that was. i assume this was in that period where we were probably linked with ashley young/stewart downing every other week in the media (zzz). you have to give it to 'fightthefuture' he seems to have been correct with Bale- although those that voted Thudd would have been correct aswell.
Wow, 2009!! Love these threads. Spot on me thinks. Every word. I cant believe I was the only Spurs fan to vote for Bale lol.
in hindsight that is indeed unbelievable. its amazing to think he is now regarded by the media as one of the best wingers in the world... and u were the only one who voted for him
Will Bostock ever make the step up. It seems a while ago now that he was touted by the English media as the nest best thing? Also Dean Parret?
i sat there for a good 10 minutes thinking 'who the **** is thudd'. what do you guys think of falque?
Not had nearly enough game time. Looks a tricky little player but he's not had too many chances to show what he can do. Hopefully start to see a bit more of him under AVB.
not really a huge fan but i've only seen him about 4 times. decent but nothing special. he played 1 game for southampton on loan last season when they were in the championship. thats looks ominous really. really hoping this ceballos lad is better than him- if we ever play him??
