The tottenham team of… well actually every spurs team

Despite spending a fortune every window, Spurs still suck and keep getting worse

This might not fit the bill, but I would love to mention team Newcastle United, right after Sir Bobby Robson left them. In the span of only 4 years, they’ve had 5 different managers. No matter how good the players they brought in, the continued to be the laughing stock of the English league (not to mention most top players who went to Newcastle all ended up jeopardizing their careers; Luque, Boumsong, Owen, Duff, Barton, etc). What’s so bad about them is that the whole Goerdie nation including the management, players and fans still continue to believe that at each start of a season they are capable of finishing top 6 in the league, and also their optimism and overly hopeful of acquiring top players in Europe, and they thought they can attract top players to play for them, without even realizing that top players around Europe only see them as relegation candidates.

When Mr. Li wrote his article about with the “Greatest Teams” there wasn’t a mention of any of the Great Milan, Juventus, Inter or Italian National teams. The ’67 Celtic team yes, 1994 Milan no? Fair enough.

But when it’s time to mention the “WORST TEAMS” ever-there are no less than 2 Serie A teams with Inter an honorable mention. I’m sure there are some other teams in the world that should be on this list, of course hitting Italy is much sweeter than hitting, Leeds, Nottingham Forrest, Man City or dare I say England 1994? When it comes to balance journalism Mr. Li-you should be writing for the NY Times, the pay is much better.

Ben, Beckham was NOT the reason why the galacticos era was messed up. The reason was because while Madrid’s club were busy buying stars, the core of the team(Makelele) was being left out and paid too little. After Makelele left, the team did well at first but eventually fell apart in the midfield. THey still haven’t found anyone to replace him. That coupled with the board of Real Madrid not placing confidence in coaches and players(example: 7 coaches in 4 years) and then about 5 presidents came and it turned into a mess. But BECKHAM was not the reason, I’ll remind you that he had great performances in his first season at Madrid, his second was good, his third(2005/2006) saw him become la Liga’s assist leader, and Beckham more or less took Real Madrid to winning La Liga in his final season at Madrid(06/07)

the problem is, Americans don’t appreciate Beckhams vision and I think most Americans were expecting a player that would score 5 goals per match and Ronaldinho type tricks.
