When I think of Spurs vs. City, I always think of that Ricky Villa goal:
I thought someone might mention that, and I was ready for it. Here it is…

Just how soon into the game will Kyle Walker down tools and walk off, gripped by the inescapable feeling of inferiority as he realises he isn’t even the best footballer named Kyle Walker anymore?
