But nothing rhymes with Bentaleb!
Fitting names into a song requires a certain amount of word play, if you know the first song they're at the point where nico claesen and tony galvin get their mention.
I just like the way that Nabel's name bounces along.

I know, but Bentaleb's song is 'Nothing rhymes with Bentaleb, Nothing rhymes with Bentaleb'

Diabolical. I wasn't expecting Elgar, but that was baaaaad.
Think you are being really harsh. The song wasn't written by professional song writers but by a group of Spurs mad fans as initially a bit of a laugh they also produced it and sang on it. That takes balls.. Chaz and Dave loved it , the club loved it , and the proceeds go to a wonderful charity. Luckily the majority of fans don't share your parsimonious views.

Fair enough, I didn't realise it was for charity. Looks like i'll have to purchase a copy.

Still doesn't make the song any better though ... :meh:

The only part I have a problem with is 'The Jan'. Apart from that, listened to it continuously all the way to work this morning. Loved the original and this stands alongside it. It's a novelty record with a big handful of nostalgia. I'm betting that most of the people who don't like it listen to shit anyway. But that's because I'm getting old.

Ha, 'The Jan' is a bit of an in-joke between us, but also the only way to get them all in there! Thanks for the feedback though

I love it. Listened to it a few times today, and it's primed for the train journey tomorrow. Hopefully I'm in a carriage of Chelsea fans

Yeah, i'm afraid it doesn't matter how good it is, unless the team are in the studio, singing on it, it's not a proper cup final song i'm afraid. Hate to be a grandad about it, but that's just the way have to have it. Sorry about that.
