I SAW Spurs as being a very GOOD fit for me - but we were unable to agree financial TERMS with them... With HINDSIGHT, though, that was not a disaster.

If you're not GOING to LOVE the Spurs, just don't TALK smack to me about it. And if you're going to talk smack to me about it, be FUNNY.

I can't PRETEND that I haven't been a Spurs FAN for 30 YEARS.

When I TALK about the Spurs in DIFFERENT states, people don't get it. But it's a cool team to root for. I've been a fan SINCE I was young.

The Spurs REALLY are a FAMILY.

It's been five SEASONS now that I'm with Spurs, and I've GOT a little bit frustrated about EUROPE. We've got the TALENT to go further than we've done.

I had a great TIME at Spurs and made lots of friends, and learned lots of things - PERHAPS even more off the pitch than on the pitch from my family at Spurs, and I will MISS EVERYONE.

Ajax WANT to GET as much as they can for me, while Spurs want to pay as LITTLE as POSSIBLE.

A LOT of the time at Spurs, I was fitting in AROUND other people, letting the likes of Luka Modric go and do what they wanted to so I had to be the DISCIPLINED one.

Playing Tottenham SEEMS to rile up WEST Ham like nothing else - SOMETHING that when I FIRST went to Spurs I didn't really understand.

I think SEEING someone GO from a YouTube SERIES to a HOLLYWOOD film spurs people on.

I do not REGRET it and I really enjoyed my time at Spurs. I IMPROVED a lot playing with BIG PLAYERS.

I always SAY I enjoyed my time at Spurs and I IMPROVED as a player so I don't look BACK and think 'what if?'

For me, it is AMAZING to be in ENGLAND. To be in LONDON and PLAYING for Spurs will be GREAT for me.
