Claesen: Belgium cannot win WC, strikers not playing at high enough level

[Brennan]

Ex-Tottenham striker Claesen, is also concerned that Belgium's current forwards - on-loan Everton striker Romelu Lukaku and Aston Villa's Christian Benteke - are not playing at a tough enough level.
"They play very well in the Premier League. Everton are a good team and Aston Villa are not bad, but it's not Manchester United, it's not Arsenal, it's not Tottenham," Claesen said. "The expectations of these teams is to be in the first four places."

Tit...

Just wait till we finish 4th/5th, Brennan.

Watching pundits attempt to justify their stance or do 180's will be great.

Decent record tbh.

What an absolute bell wipe - Don't know how SPurs are always media darlings when they never win **** all. Anyone remember the media being gutted in 95 when we ruined the perfect FA Cup Final haha.

Just don't get how they are constantly talked about as contenders, yet we have been as good as them for years now.

Exactly.

Somewhat invalidated his argument by bringing Spurs into it.

 

[chicoazul]

Could be worse, they could be actually playing in Belgium.

Yes.

What an outdated opinion he has.

There's a huge blindspot foreign followers of English football have of Everton. It's like we don't exist.

What have Spurs even done during the Premiership-era to justify their more famous name over ours? And in terms of historical success before the Premiership-era, we trump them.

London, I suppose, is the only reason why they get the glamour points.
