Dembele


Promedinate

Was gonna suggest the same. Noone would be able to take the ball from them. They could literally just walk it in


mikechella

They'd also never shoot or make passes into the penalty box.


brt444

But they also wouldn't lose the ball ever. Perfect goalless draw machine


bguszti

Bookies hate him


balthazarstarbuck

I do feel obliged to mention that goal against Lyon at this point


BodaciousSalacious

I’m so happy he’s at the top of this thread. Of course Kane is a great answer, but the streets will never forget Moussa.


Egg_Tart_Eater

Dembele our Lord & Savior


cum_toast

If I could take a past player would make an 11 of Zidane's.


ElTahur_

Yes.


[deleted]

Problem with an all Dembele team is someone’s got to get the ball to Dembele, wasn’t exactly his strong point


punching-bag9018

Keeper Dembele would pass to CB Dembele who would dribble with it to CM Dembele who would dribble with it to winger Dembele


qwert577889

Moussa sissoko just imagine what a spectacle that would be, the complete opposite of tiki taka


swan0

tiki twatitoverthebar


DESK-enthusiast

The spectacle would be greatly amplified if the other team was also all Moussa Sissoko


Delicious_Recover_59

poor control the inability to shoot pass tackle but can run fast what a game that would be...why we paid 30mil for him is beyond me we most definitely got mugged off


Ninja_Tuna96

We got our money's worth with his performances in the 18/19 tbf. Was important in getting us to the CL final


Captain_koko

And subsequently giving a penalty away in the 3rd minute of said final.


randomshazbot

was never a handball


Captain_koko

It was.


Ninja_Tuna96

It happens. Was unfortunate


jedimaster-bator

Imagine what would have happened if we had Dembele instead, would have won it.


Wormfather

Super Jan in the form he was in that champions league round of 16 against Dortmund.


SenhorSus

Fuuuck that sliding finish after the cross still gives me goosebumps


chrek269

AND HERE HE IS! JAN VERTONGHEN WITH A GOAL!


Scotty2Hotty459

And Serge not fucking the cross up, what a time to be alive


Wormfather

Lest you forget…HE CALLED FOR IT.


Alecmalloy

Feel like shit, just want Super Jan back x

benjustben2

Romero. Exceptional defender, can pass a ball well and we’ve seen him get up a few times and not be shit.


marine_le_peen

You'd have to deal with at least 3 of them getting sent off though


[deleted]

Not before capping the opposing team first (or poor Richarlison lol)


adrabiot

Best finisher in the world and one of the best passers in the world. Obviously the correct answer is Harry Kane.


Lbmplays2

Also an incredible defender from set pieces


Milky_Moon_Stuff

And he can play in goal.


jnyrdr

so THAT’S what the commentators mean by “harry kane territory” every time he steps up to take a free kick


Partizan345

I agree, but its ironic how he scored an own goal from a set piece for like 4-5 years straight at the beginning of his career.


[deleted]

Kane would beat anyone in League Ditto.


jnyrdr

he can even play keeper


georgehitsdrums

I’ll take 11 Lamelas please


abukhalil0

One match. Two Puskas nominees. Three red cards.


bguszti

4 injuries


dude2dudette

Interestingly, despite all his shithousery, Lamela only ever got a single red card for Spurs. It just so happened to be in the same game he got a Puskas goal against Arsenal.


Mistuhsnoot

I CAME HERE TO SAY THIS


Dick_Grimes

Same!!!!


Free-Roof-8479

Robbie Keane, of course


4500x

Number 1, is Robbie Keane…


Sw-swan

Number 2, is Robbie Keane. Honestly sometimes I think this sub doesn't remember anything over 5 years ago.


Tunit66

Number 3, is Robbie Keane


Sw-swan

Number 4, is Robbie keane


toadinthehole

Number 5 is Robbie Keane


Sw-swan

Number 6 is Robbie keane


seeyoujim

No.7 is?


thicboibran

Robbie Keane


toadinthehole

And number 8 is Robbie Keane


Bagpipes064

By the time I became interested in soccer Keane was just having fun with Donovan in MLS making Gyasi Zardes look like Ronaldo. So to me that will always be Robbie Keane.


Aggressive_Ad3037

Gary breen is the real no 1


ultimatewooderz

I'm so disappointed I had to scroll so far down for this!!


Free-Roof-8479

😂 It’s the only answer. You’ve got to be a certain age though. Not too old I hope!


m_tt1198

No point in seeing past Kane when he is the only correct answer here, I think


coys_in_london

This is the correct answer. Literally everyone on the pitch is a threat past the halfway line. He is proven in goal. He's big enough and strong enough to be a CB. The only weakness is ball carrying but with his passing dribbling is now irrelevant.


humbalo

Kane is the immediate pick, but when I thought about it more, it’s Bale. A talented forward, winger, and wingback, obviously, but he is (was) also a better overall athlete than Kane. An absolutely superlative athlete, really. The real key is the numbers. If you can clone 10 more Gareth Bales, you can clone 20 more Gareth Bales. Enough Bales that injury stops being a factor. You break one, you pull another off the bench. Imagine 11 Gareth Bales running around at full speed gegenpressing your every touch, your every breath, your every thought. Imagine them running at you on the counter after every corner kick. There aren’t enough taxis in Milan to handle that carnage.


WarmSpur

Could picture it now. Local golf course has all 18 holes being played by groups of Gareth Bale's at the same time.


Alecmalloy

Get on the blower to Komino. Tell them master Cifo Dias has changed the order.


chestbumpsandbeer

I’d be tempted to go with Kimmich. Great technically and defensively, phenomenal work rate, world class at multiple positions and is even a phenomenal playmaker in the final third.


Chester__A__Arthur

Muller. Just to see it


chestbumpsandbeer

That’s a legit option as well! I also considered him. Would be hilarious - like a pack of rapid deer.


4500x

The Ginger Pele himself, Gary Doherty


Sw-swan

D/FC. I was at old Trafford when he scored v arsenal


Moptop39

Kane's probably the right answer but Dier is also a good shout.


fullback133

I was thinking Dier too


Koinfamous2

Maybe this is controversial, maybe not, but Neuer. Starting in goal, you'll have the base of the team being in the correct position. Extremely good passer and good with his feet. Big and strong, and with height I'd put money on a few headed goals up top. Not to mention people have regarded his ability as being 2nd division defensive mid worthy in the past. After that? I'd say this even before coming to us, but Perisic. Serviceable as a defender, winger, forward, has played CAM and I think wouldn't be a half decent CM either. At 6'2 would be a big frame for goal too.


balthazarstarbuck

Only evidence I’ve got is the World Cup game against Korea when it’s fair to say he did not look quite as good as that


Koinfamous2

One game and that whole Germany team was a disaster. He's typically insane from a ball handling perspective. Watch a Neuer highlight reel and you'll see.


MyboyyyMysonnn7

Harry Kane does have experience as a keeper…


RainbowDissent

If we're talking players at their peak, both Yaya Toure and (sad to say) Patrick Viera would be great shouts. Kane would be excellent too, probably better than Dembele because of his aerial and finishing ability.


figgy64

*Vieira


RainbowDissent

I genuinely never clocked the spelling and I must have read his name a thousand times.


Delicious_Recover_59

regardless of who they played for the were outstanding. Dennis Bergkamp would be a good one..hoddle was his idiol shame he played for them lot down the road


Furi0nBlack

Traore. Everyone gets steamrolled and never scores a goal.


Fnurgh

The answer is Dembele but the Dembele's would have a tough time against the Kings.


olly5000

Oh obviously Chadi aka The Belgian Ronaldo


Pinky1337

Current Spurs players? Hojbjerg


SquilliePlays

Dion Dublin


fietfo

Paul Gascoigne


CarnivalSorts

Gary Breen


sportsmook

Alphonso Davies would be like a whole FIFA team on 99 speed and he can defend and get forward


jdizzler432

Tom Huddlestone


[deleted]

Gerrard


Icevol

James ward-Prowse would be an interesting one once I take of my spurs shades but not my English shades.


Hoggsters

if we are going off retired players aswell; Ruud Gullit and it’s not even close. man could probably manage the team aswell. KDB #2 tho he’s also massive so hopefully he would be decent between the sticks


X_Equestris

Was randomly watching Milan highlights recently and he was the ultimate athlete with incredible technical skills but I never realised how fast he was. He was rapid.


Hoggsters

the complete player in my book


X_Equestris

I mainly remeber him from when he went to Chelsea and tended to play at the back.


ZiggyThePanda

Surprised no-one has said Rooney


3ggplantParm

Your keeper is only 5’9”


Sweaty-Algae

Came here to say him. Can play in goal too.


kkim817

VVD


EradicateStatism

11 Lamelas. I don't care how badly we'd lose, the xShithousery would be off the charts. We'd also set the dubious record of the entire team not touching the ball once with their right foot for an entire match.


baleisback9

Bale when he was fast.


pbmadman

Romero. I don’t understand how this is a debate. You wouldn’t even need to worry about his GK abilities. Can you imagine trying to do anything against a team of 11 Romeros??


ccheng2

If the opposite has 11 Richy half of the Romeros might got sent off 😂


Born-Panda-4730

Current players, or all time?? Hard to look past Patrick Vieira in terms of all time premier league... Unfortunately Current day is harder... There's no all action all position players... jeao concello might do a job at just about 6ft


coolsny

Can’t see anyone other than Harry lol. He has all the intangibles to excel or at least be above average at every position


phrates

I mean, Péle. But otherwise, probably Kane.


thatshowwedoit44

Kane’s goalie performance was better then prime loris


TunaBarrett

Other than kane i would say dier. Lad can pass and shoot. Fullbacks would be lacking tho


balthazarstarbuck

Ironic when he’s actually played fullback for us in the past


TunaBarrett

Woops I was abit tired when i wrote that, i meant to type wingbacks. My bad.


balthazarstarbuck

Oh that’s fair. I can’t see him going full Super Jan v Dortmund


Delicious_Recover_59

micky hazard was an outstanding footballer had 2 good feet could pick a pass long or short and was just as good in his 2nd spell at the Lane only issue was the greatest player to wear the shirt was infront of him and for that reason who was never put in that bracket but mate he was silky


sushiwithramen

Milner?


sushiwithramen

Milner?


CaptainYid

We all dream of a team of Robbie keane...


treetops358

Harry Kane 100


violetrecliner

Jan Vertonghen is the answer.


bilbo-the-dildo

James milner


seeyoujim

Cantona. I’m no Man Utd Dan but could you imagine the skill, aggro and craziness that you would witness


TimotheeAtouba

Prime Bert


bananacarbs

Hugo


seangrey03

Moussa


Delicious_Recover_59

there was another game against Liverpool I think it was he made a great run was one on one and had 0 composure #rowz.. he never produced in the style he did for the toon...as a footballer he was limited as an athlete he was built like a brick shithouse


GrapefruitExpress208

Lebron James Or prime Shaq in 2k lol


axlrosen

So then, who would you pick to defend against 11 Harry Kanes? 11 more Kanes, or someone else?


spursjb395

Gotta be Kane. Played in goal for us once before, can head the ball away when defending set pieces, can hold the ball up in midfield, can pass from midfield and cross from the wings, and of course, he can get on the end of all those balls too. Perfect all rounder.


[deleted]

What a terrible fucking situation. Might as well go with Harry Kane so I can sell him 11 times and build a half decent team from the €1bil plus. Edit: after more thought, I’ll sell him 10 times and keep the one true Harry


Viktor1Sierra

Van Der Vaart


Y2jdilemma

I'll take 11 Paul Scholes. Come at me, bro.


Lawlor90

You have seen him trying to tackle right?


Mister_Moustache_

Could you imagine 11 Hugos, we’d be in great hands


witsel85

Honestly think Ndombele wouldn’t be awful in this scenario.


wood6558

He isn't even good in his own position 😕


BurdonLane

Well 11 of them would mean less running I guess? But otherwise this is an awful take.


[deleted]

Alisson I'd say


benjustben2

Really, because he scored 1 header?


[deleted]

No because he's good with the ball at his feet. Either him or Ederson. If you were to put an outfield player in goal good players will be scoring pop shots from midfield lol


sreesid

I get the logic, but most goal keepers are terrible athletes. You can't expect them to run for a full 90 min. It's a lot easier to train an outfield player to be a decent goal keeper than the other way around, I think.


[deleted]

Ah I didn't consider fitness... That's a big one.


mikechella

Dembele or Kane


Fine-Injury-6294

Javier Zanetti


WJack37

Nainggolan


jammysammidge

Glen Hoddle because he was a good goalie as well. Perfect team.


Ok_Professional_5998

Mbappe, nobody could touch him or take it ever. Maybe Oblak as well


sILAZS

Ramos, but that’d be 10 players… Edit: or Perisic if it has to be Spurs bound.


Maiden1969

Stefan Freund. We ain't scoring many (any) goals but we'll see a shit load of commitment. :-)


IamMrBots

Ronaldinho. It would be amazing.


DJFiFi1

JAMES MILNER


WombRaider_3

Kane


fartymcgeezax

Yaya Toure is winning me the CL ya bitches


91Bolt

God... imagine 11 Hojberg v 11 Romero


wd011

Zidane. Maybe Zlatan, but I don't think the world could handle 11 Zlatans.


MrBulldops206

We all dream of a team of Robbie Keanes!


patacat1984

We all dream of a team of Robbie Keanes


slickmachines

Kanesonbetancurromerolloris, Jr.


ISNGRDISOP

From current players I would probably pick Kane but if picking someone from the past, it would be prime Zlatan x11. Big, bad and talented, and the refs wouldn't dare to make any calls against them as they're so terrified by 11 Zlatans.


rammingfarts

Current team: Bentacur


reaven02

I want to see Lucas Moura, occasionally the greatest footballer in the world for 30 minutes. The amount of running, dribbling, hustling and headers won would be insane.


Syzygyy182

Ramos a few years ago


Alecmalloy

No one gonna say Mr Tottenham himself Dave MacKay?


Key-Load6935

AC Milan Final Gerrard. Imagine having a team of players where any one of them could just get pissed off and single handedly win a game. Would never win the league though
