Jimmy Greaves, Dave Mackay, Danny Blanchflower, Gary Mabbutt...............all Tottenham Legends through and through.
Stefan Freund? Not so much.......not in my opinion, now I'm all for Cult Heroes and we have plenty of them but how Mr Freund ever got inducted into our Hall of Fame before true heroes such as our record appearance holder and twice trophy lifter Steve Perryman is beyond me.
Is it a sad indictment of our own club that a player who really didn't achieve much with/or for us should be so revered?
My memories of him mainly involve him running around the midfield like a headless chicken, bottling it when it really mattered against Roy Keane and not scoring in any competitive games for us.....oh and nearly being strangled by Duncan Ferguson (but that was for Leicester....but still made me chuckle!)
Does he really deserve that song when there are far more important members of the Spurs set up going without?
Even poor Ledders had to make do with a song that mentions that scumbag John Terry!
The original song of course was first sang to Martin Jol, who I did incidentally love - albeit in a big fat dutch clown uncle type of way.
But Freund, I'm sure he's a pleasant chap and seems to be a bit of a laugh......but love?? That's a bit too much of a leap for me.
