Tottenham

Things at Tottenham aren’t looking that good right now. After an impressive start to the season, they are currently finding it hard to finish off matches. The absence of Harry Kane has hurt them a lot, even though Son provided some respite at the start but the goals have dried up. Kane has been prolific for the last two season, he has successfully written his name in the club’s history books. Over the years even though Tottenham have struggled to maintain their spot in the top four, they have had some world class players gracing the pitch at the White Hart Lane, whether it was Defoe, Bale or Modric, these players have given the fans some very special moments. And today, we look back at three players who Tottenham should have never sold.

Luka Modric

Modric was one of the most important players in the Tottenham squad when Daniel Levy and the club decided to sell him to Spanish giant Real Madrid for £30 million. Modric was the anchor man in the Tottenham midfield, his superb performance in the 2010-2011 season got him the Tottenham Player of the Year award. Since his departure from the White Hart Lane, Modric has gone on to become one of the best central midfielders in the world and his partnership with Kross has been the base on which players like Ronaldo and Benzema flourish going forward.

Peter Crouch

The tall English striker might not be everyone’s cup of tea but he scored a lot of important goals for the North London club. Crouch started his career with Tottenham but soon moved to new places. He did, however, come back to Spurs, which was fairly successful. His strength in the air gave Tottenham different options. His departure shocked a lot of fans and even football pundits.

Jermain Defoe

Defoe has always been lethal when he gets in front of the goal, his finishing and energy up front gave Spurs a strong attacking option. His departure in 2014 left a lot of people shocked and especially decision to join Toronto FC. The fact that he came back and joined Sunderland, where he has kept on going, shows what a live wire Tottenham could have had, if they had kept hold of him.
