Looking for a soccer club? The Guardian compares Tottenham Hotspur to Cal football

+

Look at this gem! California A team with a boring, unspectacular recent history which has employed a shocking amount of tremendous talent (Aaron Rodgers, Marshawn Lynch, DeSean Jackson is a very small sample size) but can’t even reach a marquee game. Cal fans are self-effacing, but pessimistic about any eventual outcome. Comparable to ... Tottenham Hotspur. Like Cal have employed a host of players who are now NFL stars, Tottenham once had Gareth Bale and Luka Modric in the same starting lineup. Now, both are gone without bringing Spurs any glory. Harry Kane is starring for Tottenham now, but fans are already lamenting his future outside of White Hart Lane. While Notre Dame and Liverpool tend to blow it in the big game, Cal and Tottenham are most susceptible to falter one game before that.
