if in summer (fingers crossed it doesn't happen) suarez gets sold, would you class him as a club legend after only 2 and a half seasons? do you think he is up there with are best ever strikers eg, torres and rush? He's one of my favourite players of recent times but is a long way off being a legend. He's been excellent so far this season though but let's not forget how wasteful he was last season when most people were criticisng him for needing 10 chances for each goal. To call someone a legend after half a season of brilliance is a bit insulting to players who have earned legendary status after 5-10 years of conistency. have to agree with these points especialy the ones about it being insulting to true legends, I think it's just very sad that a player can play well for one season and straight away be called a legend, modern fans I guess bit like them calling a player world class after a performance rather than a level reached. I think it's also insulting to past true legends when a player such as Suarez is talked in the same breath as Hansen, Emlyn, Lawro and Rushie e.t.c. Who all towed the line, behaved themselves and never brought shame on the Club like Suarez did, surely this plays a part in judging a legend too... Emlyn towed the line? Is that why Tommy smith hated his guts for trying to arrange arsenal throwing a game? Didn't bob say he was glad the bar steward left after selling him? smith was a great player , but not the most savoury of people and the reason he disliked emlyn is because shanks stripped him of the captaincy and give to emlyn .

Haha, it is pathetic. Think Carheex was just being sarcastic though big man, he's an out of towner to i think not sure though That's all very good but it's still baiting more posts from people who are malicious. We can't pick and choose who is right and wrong. It has to stop

We can't pick and choose who is right and wrong. It has to stop strange decision to be frank. It's hardly baiting if quotes about OOT players have already been made and he's making a joke of it. Surely thats preferable to when it develops into a pointless debate where one idiot tries to lord it over everyone with his better than everyone else attitude

Some people love walking the line - see how close they can get before they get banned, again  Just saying..

and the persistent negativity, with agenda driven spin that some try to precieve as 'telling it how it is'?
