The Times article was written a few years before Lloris joined the club. He'd only been here about 5 years when the Mail article was written. If such an article were to be written now, he'd have to be somewhere quite high up the list.
Not sure I agree as he either played in poor spurs sides or often wasn’t first choice. When he played regularly he had a very good record, he could score a goal out of nothing and turn a game on its head, if Robbie Keane is in the top 50 then I believe Defoe deserves to be also, they have a very similar goals and games record for us, both top players.
World Cup achievements nothing to do with his time as a Tottenham player.
Sorry but the first half of the bold bit isn’t true - we were mostly pretty good when he was there - and the second half proves my point not yours. And no, he didn’t have a very good record at all - he scored about 1 in 3 which is mediocre at best. Lastly I don’t agree with the Keane comparison, Keane’s goal record is substantially better and he was a much better creator as well. Defoe was an out and out goalscorer who didn’t score enough goals to justify that
@fishcakeandrice you can do better than the old ‘post a funny emoji when I can’t actually be bothered/am unable to argue with the facts presented’. Most of what I said isn’t really debatable - his goal scoring record is what it is, and you surely aren’t claiming he offered more around the pitch than Keane.
