Hi. I am new here. Had this question in my mind but nobody to ask it to so that made me sign up and maybe I will stick around.

These are the winning goalscorers in Cup Finals during my lifetime. Who will go down as the bigger legend?
 
I think goalscorers are a bit overrated in that sense.

So for me Romero, van de Ven and Biss were the particular heroes of 2025. And Keano ran the show in 2008.
 
Woodgate and Johnson were very high for me, but I’ve gone for Nielsen, having sat watching us in the 90’s it was actually nice to have something to cheer about having endured some of those years!
 
Really liked Woodgate, but the guy who helped break our trophy drought and win the first European trophy in my life time for sure. Hard to argue with his record as well -- even though I'm sure about 50% of the fanbase would be happy to argue it (yeah but he didn't track back!!!)

Wouldn't classify either as legends, but their contributions won us three trophies and for that I'm forever grateful. Woodgate for me was the better player, and so he will get my vote.

Don’t think they has ever been the issue with Johnson. It’s more that he literally only contributes to the game by finishing chances and any time he gets the ball outside of the box we’re losing possesion.
 
It's not about who got the last touch, it's about who created the whole thing. So the poll should be, who is the biggest legend?
- Ange Postecoglou
- Juande Ramos
- Man in the raincoat
- Terry Venables
 
Nielsen... He wasn't a great player but he gave his all every game, and that goal summarised it
 
I am not happy about us employing a manager who has minimised sexual assault. But I do think that Spurs hiring of Woodgate, who of course was convicted of his part in a racially-aggravated assault, was a worse betrayal of the club’s supposed moral standards than the De Zerbi appointment.

It’s surprising that three seasons of solid defending and a Rumbelows cup goal are enough for Woodgate to be deemed a legend, and his past forgotten. And it suggests that De Zerbi will be forgiven by the vast majority as soon as we escape the Championship.

Woodgate was only charged with fighting in public. Not racially aggravated assault.

Can we also just be crystal clear that RDZ has never spoken about the sexual assault by Greenwood, and only ever spoken about the player he has seen in terms of his attitude while playing for him. That is two very different things
