In your lifetime, what is your best 11 for Spurs? It doesn’t necessarily have to be the most talented crop, you can even include Paolo Tramezzani if he’s one of your favourites for whatever reason. Here’s mine;
Walker
Mabbutt
King
Woodgate
Hoddle
Waddle
Anderton
Gascoigne
Ginola
Sheringham
Klinnsman
I know what you’re thinking, too attacking. I did consider Steve Sedgley or David Howells anchoring the midfield but this team would be so amazing, they wouldn’t need to defend and with those 3 rocks at the back, other teams would give up just at the sight of them! If only Harry had a pool of talent like this to choose from, we would clean up.
Jennings
King
Mabbut
Roberts
Campbell (sorry)
Hoddle
Ginola
Carrick
Gascoine
Greaves
Lineker
Jennings
Perryman
Mabbutt
Gough
Hughton
Waddle
Hoddle
Roberts
Ginola
Lineker
Allen
Any Spurs best that doesen’t include perryman is worthless
my lifetime is 2002-present, hence the recent choices. picking all players from when they were at their best for spurs
Robinson GK
Corluka RB
King CB
Woodgate CB
Edman LB
Davies RM
Carrick CM
Huddlestone CM
Malbranque LM
Berbatov FW
Defoe FW
Corluka hasn’t done much and Edman was far from great, but fullback is our worst position by far and away and they are the best. Simon Davies was a top prospect and really shined when at his best. Malbranque is an absolute workhorse, one of the top players I’ve seen in a Spurs shirt. Carrick is class all the way through and an obvious choice, as is Woodgate and King. Robinson had a shocking final year but the ones before he provided great service.
mabbsy, my team would be
Robbo
Austin
Mabbutt
King
Edman
Anderton
Howells
Gazza
Ginola
Sheringham
Lineker
Subs
Walker, Sedgley, Samways, Barmby, Klinsmann,
‘Jazz It up”
Ede-O
Jennings
Perryman
King
Beal
Thomas (Danny!)
Hoddle
Gazza
Ardiles
Ginola
Greaves
Klinsman
Subs: Clemence, Houghton, judas (sorry but he was good, no sod it) England, Waddle, Carrick Lineker, Gilzean
King
Mabbut
Campbell (again sorry)
Hutton
Hoddle
Ardiles
Gascoine
Ginola
Klinsman
Berbatov (sorry)
Agree and any team not to include Gazza for that matter! Depsite his problems the boy was a genius.
Gazza is not an essential. It’s about balance. Either Hoddle or Gazza, but not both.
Look at us now without a midfield enforcer.
This is a fantasy team, not one to win the prem. Give the ball to Hoddle, Gazza, Ardiles and Ginola from the kickoff and tell to keep it until halftime!
Jennings
Perryman
England
King
Knowles
Hoddle
Gazza
Mackay
Jones
Greaves
Klinsman
Thorstvedt
Carr
King
Campbell(if he was mediocre we wouldn’t have hated him still I guess…)
Atouba
Anderton
Gazza
Ginola
Waddle
Klinsmann
Sheringham
Not enough representation from the great Double team of 1960-61. They were all good, with 4 great players in Blanchflower, Mackay, White and Jones. Having said that, I would pick Hoddle and Ginola ahead of the latter two, just for the pleasure of watching them. So for me it’s:
Jennings
Perryman
King
Mabbutt
Knowles
Blanchflower (capt)
Mackay
Hoddle
Ginola
Greaves
Klinsmann
Baardsen
Edinburgh
Gardner
Richards
Taricco
Fox
Nielsen
Brown
Davis
Iversen
Armstrong
Jennings
King
Roberts
Campbell
Hoddle
Gazza
Perryman
Ardiles
Ginola
Greaves

Mackay
Waddle Hoddle Gazza Ginola
Greaves Berbatov

Jurgen Klinsman
Bobby Smith
Ossie Ardiles
Jennings by a mile
Kinnear
King
Woodgate

Everybody seems to have forgotten Alan Gilzean. Now there was a man who could direct a headed ball, and his goal tally was way up with the best.

Pat Jennings is undisputed as far as I can see probably in the top 5 keepers of all time in any team !
Same goes for Gazza troubled and disturbed but genius.Get well soon.
And in my opinion Paul Stewart was the last midfild general we have had at the club he has never been replaced.

Shamefull
Jennings;Ramsey,Knowles;England,Mabbutt;Mackay;Hoddle,Burgess;Jones,Greaves,Ginola.
subs:Ditchburn,Perryman,Blanchflower,Chivers,Gilzean.
I haven’t included current players. Most of these were considered among the best in the world in their respective eras. I put Greaves in as a lone central striker but Chivers or Gilzean could come in for Ginola if necessary.
I have gone for a balanced team so Blanchflower is on the bench as I can’t see him in the same team as Hoddle.
There are so many others that could have been included.
Let’s try that again…

You really think a 3-5-2 is the way to go? You really think that would stop an all-time (or at least an all-lifetime) Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, United or even Newcastle XI?
And for “Anonymous” who wants Gazza in the hole, I think he’s already in one.

I have tried to go for a team not just necessarily our best 11 players. Hence it had to be Greaves and Gilzean, Waddle and Hoddle, while Kinnear and Knowles were a great pair of attacking full backs, Kinnear was vastly underrated. Have not seen a better RB playing for us since.
