[DaiT]

Pat Jennings
Danny Blanchflower
Dave Mackay
Jimmy Greaves
Glenn Hoddle

I have seen all of them play so that's my top 5.
There are so many that could be there though such as Jones, White, Gazza, Ardiles, Bale, Modric, King, Ginola, Waddle, and some I can't remember cos I am old.

 

[DaiT]

So was Mackay basically the most complete midfielder imaginable- excelling at everything offensively and defensively?

Yes.

Yes but it's about who was the "best", not who did the longest shift.

Do you mean "Best"?

[hyperterric2004]

In my life time as a Spurs fan since 1990:

Gazza
Bale
King
Sheringham
Modric

Special mention:
Anderton
Klinsmann
Barmby (I was a big fan)
Ginola
Campbell (Judas, but one of the best defenders I have seen)
Berbatov (Sheringham shaded it, due to longevity)

 

[Mullers]

Klinsmann was fantastic a genuine world class player who could score at any time, he has to be in the side.

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

Jennings
Perryman
Hoddle
Ardiles
Greaves

 

[Qualsonic]

Interesting how many people (myself included) started supporting Spurs in '81.

 

[sundanceyid10]

Surprised no one else has mentioned John White

My Dad's favourite player, he saw him play and never forgets to say what a wonderful footballer he was.

 

[Tottenham_God]

I'm 23. So in my time it'd be.

Bale, Modric, Vdv, King and probably Kane (Berbatov the sexier option).

Carrick was my favourite player and the reason I started supporting spurs as a young Australian who had a Leeds supporting father, when they bombed out I needed to pick another team (they only telecast EPL).

 

[branchie]

Pat Jennings
Danny Blanchflower
Dave Mackay
Jimmy Greaves
Glenn Hoddle

I have seen all of them play so that's my top 5.

You can't really argue with this to be honest ...

 

[sxboy]

In my time id have to choose from

Ginola great player in a shite team
Klinsmann
Hoddle
Gazza
Bale
Modric
Mabs
Berba
Keane
Teddy

I loved seeing these players play but its very hard to choose a favourite because you cant help think about the way some left.

Mabs is truly Mr Tottenham Hotspur.

 

[Metalhead]

Latest edition to that list is 30 years ago . Sad state of affairs for our recent history.
Can only comment on the players I have seen in my time.
1 Gazza
2 ginola
3 bale
4 klinsmann
5 lineker

I'd have those 5 too.

 

[guate]

Pat Jennings
Danny Blanchflower
Dave Mackay
Jimmy Greaves
Gareth Bale.

Never had the opportunity of watching Glen Hoddle as it wasn't until Fox Sports starting showing the Premier League over here in Central America (1995 onwards) that I could once again consistently watch my beloved Spurs.
