The ones that never made it

Chaps, I was having a chat with a fellow spurs fan over breakfast about the players we thought would go on to become greats but never quite made it with us. If you can forgive the fullbacks I came up with

Jalal
Young-Defendi-Uvini-Ziegler
Bostock-Blondel-Price-saib
(Rob) simpson-El hammadoui
Subs
Andy Turner
Gerry McMahon
Darren Caskey
Ronny Henry

Any better suggestions?

Luke Young actually had a decent career though. Not with us but he definitely achieved a lot more than the rest on your list.

Great shout, I remember him playing a decent game against Liverpool and then he vanished. He's probably marooned on the same desert island as Robinson Crusoe and Eric Lamela.

Saw him recently playing for a lower league team. Google it if you want to know, I'm not here to spoon feed you.

Bit of an obvious one:
Rebrov

Mention for Postiga too. Wanted him to do well, rather than thought he actually would.

Phil Ifil...

three appearances for us, we sold him to Colchester.

Last proper contract was Kettering Town...last heard of being on trial at Wrexham....don't think he got a contract.

That's a quick summary of his career.
