Morning chaps,
Occasionally I get the urge to look up some former Spurs players and see what they are doing with their careers these days, this website is an invaluable source for such information http://www.mehstg.com/whereare_m2z.htm but sometimes one gets the urge for some more detail.
It is always a pretty random selection process as to who gets looked up, but here anyway are my findings from a brief search:
Reto Ziegler enjoyed 4 successful years at Sampdoria before moving to Juventus last summer. Unfortunately for him he played no role in the title winning side of last season, instead spending the whole year on loan at Fenerbahce. Now reportedly being lined up as Leighton Baines' replacement at Everton.
Teemu Tainio had a torrid few years after leaving us, with difficult and injury ravaged spells at Sunderland, Birmingham and Ajax. Since moving to New York Red Bulls he has undergone a rejuvenation of sorts and is regarded as their best and most reliable player. Unfortunately seems to be entering the Ledley phase of his career, where injuries are catching up with him and he requires a lot of pain killing injections.
Another player now operating in the MLS is Lee Young-Pyo, who moved to the Vancouver Whitecaps last year after a successful spell at Borussia Dortmund and a somewhat enigmatic couple of years in Riyadh at Al-Hilal.
The less said about some players the better, Kevin Prince Boateng is proving in Milan that for some players there is life after Tottenham, while Marton Fulop proved last season that our desire to off-load deadwood may be totally misguided, their incompetence can't do us any harm if they're rotting in our 'feckin reserves'.
Post any updates about players you take an interest in.
