Hi Juande As I've said before I've seen all the great Spurs players live going right back to Jones White Mackay etc - so am clearly over 25 (wish I wasn't)
the great tradition I refer to is players of the highest skill, artists like Greaves Ginola Hodd who didn't rely on sweat but sheer genius - and Berbs is of that lineage - and hence to me for the reasons I've already given Berbs is a Spurs legend (for me anyway, and doubtless some others too)
Dalglish, Brady, Hoddle, Marsh, Best, Cantona...........Berbatov
Keegan, Boyer,Cottee,Channon,Saunders, McDougall.....Robbie Keane
Which group were legends in their time?
DC i do respect your views certainly more than others, as you say you have seen some of the greats, and yes when it comes to sheer Genius i do agree with you that he is up there, but that IMO does not make him a Spurs Legend, i think on this one my friend we will have to agree to disagree, i sit here safe in the knowledge that i have seen some truly wonderfull Spurs teams, and i just hope some of these kids on here get to see some more of the wonderfull players we have seen down the years.
fair enough Juande - I entirely respect your views - and I'm certain your view is in the majority
as with a lot of arguments - definitions/semantics come into play -
Dalglish, Brady, Hoddle, Marsh, Best, Cantona...........Berbatov
Keegan, Boyer,Cottee,Channon,Saunders, McDougall.....Robbie Keane
Which group were legends in their time?
Juande, maybe in your opinion but belonging correctly in the top group. Marsh was a great player and I have seen most teams including our double side. Twice the player Robbie Keane will ever be I am afraid.
Let me get this straight, Marsh is not fit to lace Bests boots but there is no argument about him being twice the player that Keane is....and Keane is a legend himself?
I think we can all agree that Robbie Keane is not and never will be a Spurs legend.

Hi PLP - I've already said that I think Robbie is a spurs legend - so we clearly don't all agree (and I'm not the only one
