Alan Nielsen was overrated.
Worst Spurs team ever:
Spurcat
HBIC YV Roo RWAERB

Jeez, I'd actually blocked him from my memory completely.

Alan Nielsen is one of a long list of average midfielders that played for us in the last 15 years. Up until recently the centre of our midfield has been so mediocre. From those days up until the Sean Davis/ Michael Brown era we really have been crap in that area. Before we signed Modric who was the last really good central midfield player we had? I mean good enough to play for anyone in the league? I'm struggling.

Davids and Carrick.
Kranjcar was actually a very good player, shame Redknapp seemed to hate him.
Gotta say I thought Davids was a bit crap when he played for us. Seemed to be another yellow card machine (though I remember being perpetually surprised that he did not get as many cards as I thought he deserved).
Plus he played out on the left of midfield for a fair chunk of his Spurs career. Remember those days? When we'd sign Edgar Davids to play left wing?!
That was our period where we didn't have any left wingers, so played a central midfielder out there (Tainio, Murphy, O'Hara and Malbranque played out there as well, and Modric was played there for a period as well) - there was a period between Andy Reid being sold in August 2006 and Bale getting his chance in January 2010 where we didn't have a legitimate left winger playing on the left wing!
