The Spurs squad "cat-sitting" challenge...

Let's briefly move away from the current "Lennon is very good"/"no he's not"/"stop moaning"/"I've a right to express my opinion" circularity of Spurs Chat, and try to address the more important questions as we hurtle towards the business end of the season...

So, inspired by an article about National Record Store day in today's Guardian...

Which of the current Spurs squad would you most happily trust to look after your cat when on holiday?

For me, it'd be Niko Kranjcar. He must be so desperate to impress, at anything, by now that I think he'd try and grab his chance with both hands, implementing a solid feeding and litter-tray clearing schedule in the hope that he'd get the nod again in the future.

If Niko was unavailable, unwilling, or even allergic, I'd go for Benoit Assou-Ekotto. Likes staying in, doesn't drink and doesn't watch much football, if the interviews are to be believed, so is less likely to be distracted - or out - for long periods in the evenings. I think he'd offer a dependable second choice.

If I extend the question to all-time Spurs players, it's hard to look past Gary Mabbutt, again for reasons of dependability and reliability.

Bottom of that list would be Gazza, for obvious reasons.

I'd let my cat look after Michael Dawson. But probably not the other way round. Jimmy Greaves had a good rapport with the Thompson cat. No way would I let Defoe have it, you'd be away a couple of days and he'd have moved on to another pussy.

VDV, so then I could return the favour and look after Sylvie's pussy.

Agree with Defoe - you just wouldn't, would you - but Dawson would do a good job, I reckon.

I'm not sure if I'd trust BAE with my cat (if I had one). He'd probably be tempted to follow it on its late-night journeys, and find himself in the middle of nowhere.

I'd probably go with Ledley King. He'd have plenty of spare time to give it lots of attention.

Peter Crouch would be another good one. I've heard he can't resist a nice pussy.

Gomes would kill it
Gallas would kill for it
Benny would kill to look after it
VdV would get the hump half way through looking after it
Defoe would miss it
Pav would look at it and pray for it
Crouch would shag it
Bale would out take it for a run
Modders would tease it
Tom would eat it

You'd just want him to feed it and let it out/in occasionally, not take it to Mahiki then feel it up in the back of a cab.

He would probably comb it alot and then try and shag it and finally eat it

I'd probably go with Ledley King. He'd have plenty of spare time to give it lots of attention.
I think he would take out on the razzle and get it impounded

Peter Crouch would be another good one. I've heard he can't resist a nice pussy.
This ones easy your might have to call the fire brigade


Answers above

The Croatians are out as they might stew it!! Woodgate would forget where it is, Huttoin would probably get to snort some white stuff! Pav would trip over and and crush it.

And Jenas would keep giving it away

I'd let Lennon look after it - they are both the same size so my cat could use the same cat flap Lennon uses to get in the house.

yes, but what if he tried to punch it clear from the box?

If the cats name is Reg New it would be ok as long as he punched it backwards!

I'd probably let Dawson take care of it. Super committed, loving and loveable in equal measure, and brave enough to try and get the cat out of any trouble it might find itself in.

Oh, best thread ever by the way. Rep reppity rep rep!

Best person of current squad: Robbie Keane. Talks a similar language it seems. Not much playing time to distract it, and he looks like he wouldn't mind it's litter everywhere too much.

Worst of current squad: Bassong. Looks mischievous. Got the hump he's been demoted this season. Would surely skin it or something in retaliation.

Best ever: Waddle. It could hide on his head and people would think it's his old barnet again.

Worst ever: Surely has to be Lee Young Pyo! He'd look at it more like an ingredient than a pet, a huge no-no in the looking after department. He'd turn it into a traditional Korean dish quicker than you can say 9 lives.
