From my lifetime it would be Harry Kane but so many greats of yesteryear like Mackay, Greaves, Hoddle, Blanchflower, I wouldn't begrudge anyone of a different opinion on it
Hoddle was pure genius. Revered around the world by the footballing greats but wasted in an England era preoccupied with workrate and crunched tackling that got us nowhere. Platini said that if Hoddle was French he would’ve got 150 caps. Cruyff gave Hoddle his shirt in 1984 calling him the new Master. Maradona lavished high praise on Glenn when he played with him in the Ardiles testimonial. Wenger to this day still says that Glenn was the most skilful player he ever managed and was truly world class. These are the opinions of football and greats and have to be respected. Glenn was a genius , years ahead of his time, in the hundreds of millions of pounds if on the transfer market today, wasted by the FA and they should hold their head in shame.
After recovering from a bad injury, Martin Chivers was a great player for about 3 seasons. I always felt he had more to give. As for his long throws, he could reach the goal from an effortless standing start rather than the windmill arms style of Chelsea’s Ian Hutchison. People like to knock Spurs but they have had some fabulous players in my lifertime.
I’ve been supporting spurs from 1967 when my dad took me to watch fa cup final against Chelsea, so i’m glad I saws around when they were winning most of there cups in 60’s, 70’s and 80’s
1. Greaves - an utter Genius - not only the best striker Spurs ever had, also England 2. Hoddle, another Genius, the best midfielder we ever had, wonderful 3. Pat Jennings, the best Goalkeeper we ever had, by far 4. Harry Kane - outstanding, not at the genius level of Greaves, but fabulous goalscorer 5. Dave McKay, midfield general
Sorry...but Pat Jennings was pheonominal and easily their best ever goalkeeper...only reason he left Gazza out was because Hoddle was and always will be jealous of him!
Spurs are the biggest champagne charlie club in england Psg are the european equivalant Teams who attract good players, but cannot win anything special
Delusional nonsense from Glenn about the bottom teams in the premier league and how good they are. The teams in the bottom levels of the EPL are getting less points than they ever have and they're way less competitive as they all play the same style as the top teams just were worse players so it's easier for the good teams to play against them than it used to be
Maybe Glen was too young to remember, but John White was one of the greatest midfielders to ever grace the game. A vital member of the Double's team of the early Sixties and one of Scotland's finest. As an LFC fan and a Scot I always hoped he would come to Anfield, but sadly he was taken from us far too early, R.I.P.
Gutted to have only caught the very end of Glenn's playing days, when he was player/manager at Chelsea. Most of my knowledge of his greatness was through anecdotal evidence from my dad, and, thankfully, RUclips.
My Dad, a Newcastle supporter like me, always told me that Jimmy Greaves was the greatest striker he'd ever seen. Nice to hear Glen mention Martin Chivers too. He was way better than people realised, he was great with his feet. Very like Peter Withe.
No surprise, he left Gazza out and did the same for that World Cup squad, which was another mistake. I respect Hoddle he obviously knows his stuff and he was so good for the England team when he initially got appointed, but he has some strange ideas and is too stubborn for his own good.
Jimmy Greaves won three trophies at Spurs including a European one...the first English team to win European silverware. Hoddle and Ardeles won three also including a European trophy. A trophy-less Spurs is simply not valid when talking of the historic Spurs.
Who do you regard as Tottenham's GREATEST ever player? 🤔
Granddad wouldn't ever stop talking to me about Jimmy Greaves... So as an Arsenal fan, I'd have to say Sol Campbell
@@ukArnz 😂😂😂

Micky Hazard. The man could send a 40 yard pass to hit an upside-down golf tee without knocking it over.
@@AntonyInnes Factory of talent 👏
The Greatest Goalscorer Of all Time Jimmy Greaves
Hoddle was pure genius. Revered around the world by the footballing greats but wasted in an England era preoccupied with workrate and crunched tackling that got us nowhere. Platini said that if Hoddle was French he would’ve got 150 caps. Cruyff gave Hoddle his shirt in 1984 calling him the new Master.

That's the happiest and most relaxed I've ever seen Hoddle be. Good to see.
Glenn was the greatest player my dad ever saw play, my dad made sure i saw him when he was player/manager at Swindon. Glenn is the man.
After recovering from a bad injury, Martin Chivers was a great player for about 3 seasons. I always felt he had more to give.

Most?
Reckon Ange could get his hands on a trophy?
@@footballsgreatestpod We sincerely hope so.
I had a goal drought once...it was the worse 15 minutes of my career- Jimmy Greaves.
feeling Blessed that I have seen all these players play in my years supporting Tottenham.
Some talent has played at the Lane over the years, that's for sure
1. Greaves - an utter Genius - not only the best striker Spurs ever had, also England
2. Hoddle, another Genius, the best midfielder we ever had, wonderful
3. Pat Jennings, the best Goalkeeper we ever had, by far
4. Harry Kane - outstanding, not at the genius level of Greaves, but fabulous goalscorer
5. Dave McKay, midfield general
Is that in order?
Hoddle thinks ray clemence is a better keeper thn pat jennings he hasn't got a clue thats just outrageous
And you have no manners..
I think that's coloured by having played alongside Clemence for Spurs and England. But Jennings is only comparable with Banks and maybe Yashin.
Yeah because I’d listen to a nobody rather than a world class footballer. Jesus🙄🤣🤣🤣
Didnt Chelsea develop Jimmy Greaves
Greaves
Bale
Son
Hoddle
Villa
Another 2 greats. I wouldn't have Ricky on a greatest players list, but possibly the greatest goal!
Stevie Archibald
OMG my dad always said Martin Chivers was top top draw his top 3 included him Dave Mackay and Glenn
Jimmy Greaves
Greaves
Gascoigne
Bale
Kane
Jennings
Some goals in that five a side
No Lineker?
@@SuperUnbeliever Lineker might make it onto my subs bench. Possibly?
Jimmy Greaves the best English player ever? Certainly in the conversation.
Kane will walk into any top Europe teams all day and if you have doubts go check the stats
How would he walk into City’s team if they have Haaland?
My favourites are probably:
Hoddle
Ardiles
Waddle
Kane
King
Tough list to settle on, isn't it
Gazza
Hoddle
Ginola
Greaves
Bale
@@joestaxx2771 Greaves was before my time. If I was an older gentleman of your/Jeff's(!) vintage, I'm sure he would've made my list.
Ledley's another great. For me Waddle is the next level down from 'greatest ever'.
Jimmy was an unbelievable talent, for Chelsea (pity they got him first!), Spurs and England.
We all know why he left Gazza out.
Why
Yeah the length of time he was at Spurs.
He didn't want another hotel room being wrecked?😋
Sorry...but Pat Jennings was pheonominal and easily their best ever goalkeeper...only reason he left Gazza out was because Hoddle was and always will be jealous of him!
Did he say he wasn't their best ever goal keeper? Don't talk stupid,Hoddle isn't jealous of Gazza,he's got nothing to be jealous about.
Hoddle was twice the player gazza was.
Don't think he named a keeper, I imagine it would've been pat if he had
Easily 👍 @@jc-16.
@@jc-16. Then why is Gazza always in the conversation of England's greatest player, yet rarely Hoddle is?
Spurs are the biggest champagne charlie club in england
Psg are the european equivalant

Surprise surprise leaving gazza out.
Hoddle

Spurs know how to get players from arsenal
👀
What are you talking about ?
Surely the other way round, with Jennings and Campbell making them nailed on for trophies.
@@blrbrazil1718Jennings won trophies at Spurs. More than he did at Arsenal so that’s a wrong statement
@@billyandrews5350: I think you've rather missed the point about who's benefited more from transfers between Spurs and Arsenal.
ABSOLUTE BOLLOCKS.🥱
Pat Jennings is the best keeper we ever had and arguably the best the world has seen. He has to be in any list...
Could listen to Glen talk about football all day.
Maybe Glen was too young to remember, but John White was one of the greatest midfielders to ever grace the game. A vital member of the Double's team of the early Sixties and one of Scotland's finest. As an LFC fan and a Scot I always hoped he would come to Anfield, but sadly he was taken from us far too early,
R.I.P.
Would Glen be in most people’s top 5 ? I think he would, a true great 👍
Ahead of his time wasn't he
He left the season I started following football but caught a few clips of him at Monaco at the time and he was excellent
Glen would surely be in everybody else's top 3, let alone 5!
@@mikepotter2561Hes in my top two. Jimmy and Glenn.
Gutted to have only caught the very end of Glenn's playing days, when he was player/manager at Chelsea. Most of my knowledge of his greatness was through anecdotal evidence from my dad, and, thankfully, RUclips.
Jimmy Greaves was produced by Chelsea...indeed Chelsea produced two of three of Spurs highest ever scorers...Bobby Smith being the other...
My Dad, a Newcastle supporter like me, always told me that Jimmy Greaves was the greatest striker he'd ever seen.
Nice to hear Glen mention Martin Chivers too. He was way better than people realised, he was great with his feet. Very like Peter Withe.
No one comes close to the great Pat Jennings! An absolute legend. He'll always be the best ever. Just cannot understand anyone who leaves him out.
Greaves, Hoddle, Mackay, Blanchflower,England
Another 3 great choices.
Swindon greatest too along with Ardiles and Macari. Only criticism is it could have been longer
Pat Jennings best goalkeeper I ever saw at spurs
No surprise, he left Gazza out and did the same for that World Cup squad, which was another mistake. I respect Hoddle he obviously knows his stuff and he was so good for the England team when he initially got appointed, but he has some strange ideas and is too stubborn for his own good.
''The only reason I left Gazza out'' force of habit.
Time to binge! Anymore Jeff?
1. Pat Jennings 2. Sol Campbell 3. Freddie Cox 4. George Hunt 5. Vic Groves😁
Get Sonny, Gaza and Robbie Keane in there
Harry Kane isn't even in the top 5 players that Hoddle played alongside at Spurs imo
In YOUR opinion… Kane is definitely top 5
imho the HurriKane has become a better player than Chivers (tho' neither would be in my top 5).
@thesaintst1851 Yes, hence the "imo" 👍
Kane's the only man who could go to Bayern Munich and not win a trophy.
😬😬 Still got the Champions League to fight for... Surely it won't be long
... while still breaking scoring records. Spursey has crossed the Channel ;o)
No idea how to produce trophies though
Jimmy Greaves won three trophies at Spurs including a European one...the first English team to win European silverware. Hoddle and Ardeles won three also including a European trophy. A trophy-less Spurs is simply not valid when talking of the historic Spurs.
