If you're young then you can't help that you've never seen proper greats. I think you have to be careful with that line of thinking because in terms of proper "legends" of the club, we might not have one ever again if we're playing the comparison game and it does a disservice to what people might achieve relative to their time of playing at the club. Of course, you could argue that the modern game has shifted the possibility of players becoming "legends" at clubs. I think if you go on playing career alone, over Ferguson's two spells with us he probably did enough to secure legend status - something which would have been irrefutable had we won the UEFA Cup final.

Couldn't lace Van Bronkhorst's boots and Reyna was a better player. An absolute classless Ned who likes to rewrite history. He disappeared to the mighty Blackburn rovers and quickly found out he couldn't cut the mustard in the big boys league so was back with his tail between his legs with the only club he ever wanted to play for... he was very good as a youngster round - against Kaiserslautern he was immense- however he very quickly became like ever other Scottish "great" midfielder- a crab! all he did was get the ball, do a 360 turn and then pass it sideways- same as McStay, Lambert etc... a "legend" in his own head- every game would see him go down with some mysterious injury, roll around, grimace and pull a face but then get up and force himself to "play through the pain barrier"- a total fraud. Leaving aside the personals and what he did or didn't do at Blackburn ( because I really don't know ) I do agree with the essence of this post . In his first spell here I thought he was tremendous for us . I don't know if it was that youthful ' gallasness ' but he was adventurous and forward thinking . On his return , I don't think he was quite as effective . I don't know if it was something he learned in England , but everything was too safe for me , like you said too many sideways , safe passes where the intent was more about not losing possession than actually creating anything .

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Can everyone not just agree that Barry is probably a prick but stop trying to pretend he wasn't a fantastic player for us or failed down south?

Siam69 27,388 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Great player for us, gave me some of my best memories. Would love him in our team now, just what is needs. Hasn't been a better Scottish player since. Then again, been a while since a Souness, Dalglish or Hansen appreared from Scotland. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat 4,511 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Ferguson is a true legend for everything he accomplished at the club.Period. However, if I'm being honest he isn't the most likeable player that's wore our famous jersey, so I can understand there are some mixed feelings towards him among our support - having said that - some of the stick he's taken in this thread is beyond the pale as far as I'm concerned.
