    Mark Gower ultimately ended up in the Premier League with Swansea, although it was quite the circuitous route to get there

    Paul McVeigh also wound up back in the PL with Norwich for a season, but did alright for himself in the second tier

    Rory Allen seemed to be establishing himself in the second tier at Portsmouth, but then ankle and knee injuries ended his career in 2002

    Young also picked up a few England caps

    Come to think of it, his career was quietly respectable, as he stayed in the PL at Charlton, Middlesbrough, Villa and QPR, playing top flight football every season from 1998 to 2013

    He was part of the quartet of extremely unlikely names for Charlton's defence.
    Young Fish Costa Fortune.
    Luke Young, Mark Fish, Jorge Costa and Jonathan Fortune in the 2001/02 season.

    Chris Powell was there too, but that's not funny.

    Evening Standard headline: "Christian Stellini says there were a thousand problems at Tottenham"

    Evening Standard article: Christian Stellini says a mid-season World Cup, the death of Gian Piero Ventrone, and Conte's ill health were major factors in our season derailing like it did

    The bottom line says that in spite of all of that,
    Spurs effectively lost 4 games more than last season.

    I wonder if it was a back pass had he done the simple thing of catching it

    Matt Doherty could be the next player heading to Saudi.
