It's the way he stirs his tea. Sets my teeth on edge.

That's a pretty shît name drop, m.
Would you consider Robin van Persie an Arsenal legend (leaving aside who he went to in in what circumstances). I mean, on one hand you have 132 goals (8th top goalscorer for the club), and one of only 7 players to have won one of the Players of the Year award (and one of only three to have won both in the same year). On the other hand, his career with us was a bit meh really wasn't it. Even his great season was marred by the constant rumors over a move.
I'm not sure either way tbf
Surely the issue here is the modern day utter gay abandon with which the term "legend" is thrown about.
This is a good one.
I would say he is one of the more gifted players we had but not a legend. He had the potential as you say the way he left doesn't help.
However is Frank Stapleton a legend?
Do all members of the invincible squad become legends automatically?
Lehmann for example looked back fondly.
I look back at him as a ****ing lunatic who cost us the CL final.
on the other hand he contributed to get us there.
Indeed - football fans, eh
They were part of a legendary team so sort of
This term gets also throw about when people are drunk.
You'll turn up and some colleagues will say 'This guy is a ****ing legend' etc
When in reality you've never actually really spoken to these chaps in the past.
