Good read. I miss Toby and Jan, but we move on and I hope we can rediscover that stability at the back soon.

Good interview, though I do feel he’s underplaying how difficult he was for both Pochettino and Mourinho at points during their respective tenures.

He can deny it if he wants, but it’s pretty glaring he only signed his new contract a month after MP was fired. Certainly a factor.

Arguably needed to be more of a leader at various points in his Spurs career but cant think of any better CBs that played regularly for us in the last 30+ years.

I like the bit about family time. Goes to show you that a footballer is not that dissimilar to a regular employee.

Snatching the league in the dying moments, from the team you’ve just scored against… incredible.

The other team chasing the league title - who’d have won by 2 clear points if they’d held onto their lead - went full Tottenham Hotspur at the worst possible time:

After all these years, Mrs Redknapp finally breaks free of the shackles of that comment.

Fuckin’ stat padder.
