I couldn't have a team without Anderton,Ginola and Robbie:

Lloris

Carr Cambell King Ziege

Anderton Modric Bale Ginola

Keane Berbatov(Maybe Klinnsman)


I will concede that defensively we'd be all over the place in midfield but it's my team leave me alone.

Fair enough! but if you're picking on sentiment, who's that bad mutha****a at centre back?

Robbie will be thrilled to be considered better than Klinsmann.

And Bale in centre mid. Sheesh.

Lloris
Carr - King - Mabbut - Ziege/BAE
Modric
Anderton - Rafa - Bale
Berba - Klinsman

A trainwreck waiting to happen but I don't care.

Could throw in Ginola or Keane.

My team would clearly overrun yours in midfield while your 3 strikers trip over themselves up front :cool:

Crap forgot about VDV, can I have 8 subs? haha

Dublin Spur

Ruddock worth a shout at the back - was superb 92/93

It's amazing how weak we have been in ctr midfield.
After Modric, it's a real struggle to come up with another top quality partner for him since Gazza was at the club. The likes of Parker, Howles & Anderton were good, but it does show up a glaring weakness.

The best holding midfielder we probably had in the EPL era was Steffan Fruend imo. Couldn't play to save his life but did break up the play well.

Tommy Hudd had a couple of good seasons in midfield I guess, especially in 09/10.

True, we've never really sorted that position.

I thought Sean Davis would be the answer at one stage, funny thinking back. Also thought Wilson Palacios was the second coming, that didn't last long.

Popescu was a world class midfielder, but he didn't really settle in the madness of Ardiles reign.

Carrick would have been very good for us if he had stayed longer.

I'd take Parker or Sandro over him, or even Capoue.

Freund was fine at tackling but his distribution was atrocious.

Awesome team. Great balance. I'd switch the wingers though, Bale on the left.

golfball37

Says a lot that our undisputed best full backs of the whole era are Ziege and Carr, neither of which were really that good. Ziege was a class player before he came to England and Carr was solid but odinary really in world terms.

They can switch themselves as could Sheri and Klinsmann. Freedom to express themselves!!!!!

Yeah it's a bit of a cheat seeing as Ziege was a class player but was average for Spurs (apart from that free kick) and only played a few times.

By that logic there is a case for putting Davids in midfield, even though he was past his best by the time he joined us.
