I remember using this term last season somewhat hastily but the more I think about it the more I agree.
What do you think? Legend is obviously subjective but I'd certainly file the likes of Whelan, Shawcross and Delap under that category.
Crouch too?

I think he is he's scored his hundredth prem goal at stoke and either he or jon are our top prem scorers. (Jon is a club leg to imo)

Yeah I'd say so well at least an icon bordering on legend

No. He has been a good player for a number of years but not a great for a sustained period. He keeps on 'doing the business' but certainly not enough to be classed as a legend.

Scored some vital goals - Man City goal was awesome. Great player, great personality - I feel proud that he's played for us so it's a yes from me.

Possibly not, but probably a favourite person at most clubs he's played for.

I remember when the half time announcer introduced Mikael Hansson as a Stoke City legend. Nearly choked on my bovril. Very few Stoke City legends for me. Sir Stan, the boys of 72, Hudson, Skeels, Chamberlain and one or two more. Of the current side I'll add Shawcross.

......of course he is - has anyone scored more prem goals for us? (genuine question as I don't know - but guessing not?)

Fuller is a legend. Different player from our Pete. They both seem to be legends for me. anyone got the stats?

Depends how you define the term Legend really.
I'd say no personally, even though he has been a good player for us and scored one of the best goals I've ever seen a Stoke player score, Legend status is going a bit too far for me and is reserved for the likes of the cup winning team of the 70's,Sir Stan,some of Macari's league winning side and some of Pulis' promotion team.

You can't say legend about a current player. Time will usually tell

Of course he is and I hope he stays at the club in some capacity.

Yup from me. In years to come he'll be remembered. I remember Sammy Irvine and Steve Foley I'm pretty certain its not because they're legendary players. |
