Your 1 favourite Spurs Player of all Time

[ever]

mabbutt, keane, ginola,

Mine was Waddle, he was my hero as a kid. Although I only saw him for a season or two before he left to France and I was not old enough to be a concious Spurs fan i.e watch matches and know whats going on, until the 1988 season.

Gazza/Lineker followed by Klinsmann, come in behind him as the only players who were truely heros to me. I got too old for all that since, although during his time Berbatov was the first player for ages I would call my favourite player.

Although I have to admit Modric and Palacios are doing similar things for my affections that BErbatov did during his stint in a SPurs shirt.

 

[ziggy]

Hoddle, Roberts, Perryman

I've only been a Spurs fan for a handful of years, but given that he was the reason I started to support the team, Robbie Keane will likely always be my favorite player. Just wish he'd start scoring goals again.

Three names spring to mind: JOHN WHITE, DANNY BLANCHFLOWER, DAVE MACKAY

However the one that truly earnt the respect of all fellow professionals was Dave MacKay

QUE VIVA LOS SPURS

 

[paul_1979yid]

My fave has to be Gazza i think. Closely followed by Jurgen!

 

[Bonjour]

Moussa Saib

 

[paul_1979yid]

Moussa Saib

Oh c'mon! :grin:

 

[Luka Lennon]

if I can only pick one then Gazza for sure

the man was a genius on the pitch

 

[spurslenny]

Ginola. End of.

 

[nickchrissi]

Ginola or Berba! Can't choose!

 

[pook]

gary mabbutt.

in the last 30 years (since i've been a fan), i can't think of a player who, over time, both meant more to spurs, and to whom spurs meant more, than mabbs. absolute legend, to my mind.

Hod is God

 

[Midostouch]

Glen Hoddle - his football was poetry - I felt honoured to watch him.

Plus he took the time to answer all my inane questions when I wrote to him - I got a 3 page handwritten letter telling me such fascinating insights as that his favourite meal was fish and chips etc. :grin:

 

[AngerManagement]

I figure it;s a matter of age...

People who pick the likes of BErbatov and Ginola were probably too young to have really watched Gazza in a SPurs shirt, I also guess us who were very young when Gazza played for our club would pick him, Waddle or Lineker because we were too young to have seen Hoddle or Greaves and so on.

Even someone old enough to have seen them all would probably be bias and pick their favourite based on the time when they were young enough to still be captured by the magic football casts on a child with little else to concern themselves with in life.

 

[pal90]

You're making me feel too old...but it's still the Hodd.

 

[SpurSince57]

David Ginola ... no, Jurgen ..... no, Robbie .... no, AAAAAAAAAARGH *puts a gun to head and pulls trigger*

IT'S TOO DAMN HARD!






Ok then, Klinsmann as he's the second biggest reason why I got into supporting Spurs, first being that my dad's a lifelong Yid. He also scored in the first game I went to at WHL.

Quite. Apply the thumbscrews and electrodes, though, and I'd probably say Dave Mackay.

 

[sherbornespurs]

Greavsie. Players come and go, but after watching Spurs for almost 50yrs he's still the only player I've watched and thought; 'How the hell are we going to replace this guy when he finishes?'

 

[Physco]

Tony Galvin

 

[archiewasking]

Steve Archibald of course. The sulky, selfish goalscoring Berbatov of his day.

Though I also love, and make no apologies for loving;

Danny Thomas

Justin Edinburgh

John Gorman

Neil Mc Nab

Alfie Conn

Richard Gough

and yes, Moussa Saib.


And all the other wonderful players mentioned above
