Since Both Egyptians Mido and Ghaly left Spurs, Pharaohs curse apparently hit the North London side. Tottenham achieved European qualification last season and ended in the 5th spot for the second season in a row. However, since Mido and Ghaly left the team, the form of Spurs went downhill and they are now facing relegation danger and exit from UEFA cup as well.

Martin Jol, Mido and Ghaly were all integral part of Spurs success in the past two seasons. Jol took control of Tottenham and helped them to qualify to Europe in his second season and third seasons. Mido, as well, played a major part on his loan period at Spurs as he led the side to a prestigious 5th place at end of season.

The Egyptian found himself a 4th choice after signing permanently from Roma but Spurs remained strong with the arrival of Berbatov who proved his worth in his first season with Spurs. The other Egyptian Ghaly shone in the last season as he scored, assisted and won penalties in many crucial games and the end was another 5th place for Spurs last season.

In summer, Spurs decided to get rid of both Egyptians Mido and Ghaly. Mido had to leave after the signing of Darren Bent while Ghaly was forced to leave the club after throwing the team shirt onto the ground in the penultimate matchday in the Premiership.

On paper, Spurs did well as they brought Kaboul, Gareth Bale and Bent at expense of Mido and Ghaly but in the real world, the new players didn't help the team much with Bale as an exception.
