More emotional than when Kane left - even though Hugo hasn’t featured all season. I love that he sees himself with Spurs DNA for life.

 

[wspur]

O Captain! My Captain!

 

[dirtyh]

All the best Hugo. A true spurs legend. Still remember my disbelief on the day we signed him.

 

[easley91]

He won the world cup as our captain and France's captain. Just wish he could have won something with us.

All the best Hugo. A true spurs legend. Still remember my disbelief on the day we signed him.

Same here. One of the few players I remember exactly where I was when the news came out!

Amazing goalkeeper and servant for us, thank you Hugo and you’re welcome back anytime.

He's a very intelligent and eloquent guy.

I can see him getting some sort of role with us when he retires.

Legend

Legend

Agree, absolute club legend for us.

For a start he joined us and stuck by us when he was at a lot higher level than we were as a club, then he led us as captain to title challenges, cup finals and a CL final.

For me I have never liked goalies as captains and thought someone else should’ve been our captain being completely honest however Hugo has been a phenomenal servant and goalkeeper for us for the majority of his 11 years with us and should rightfully be known as a club legend and be welcomed back with open arms as a guest or with a role within the club in the future.

I met him once and got to ask him a few Q’s, seemed like a really genuine normal nice bloke, I did tell him back then that his saves are world class but if he wants to play centre mid with Pogba etc then he needs to work on his kicking

Growing up in the 80s and 90s he’s easily the best I’ve seen.
During his very long peak he was world class and prob would have a higher reputation if not at spurs. (Aka Kane).
A legend in evrery sense. Thanks for giving us your peak years and loyalty.

So glad I'll be there for half time tomorrow.

Kane departure v Lloris departure. - it'll be world's apart!!

 

[fuzzylogic]

Brilliant keeper in his day, the amount of times he saved us was unbelievable. Goodbye

 

[tommo84]

A match winner on his day, and he had a good few of those in a Spurs shirt. Sad he never lifted anything of note with us, but glad he’ll get a send off.

Bonne chance Hugo. Merci pour tout.

 

[talkshowhost86]

One of our best ever keepers and I hope we remember him for that more than for him being kept on for too long towards the end of his time with Spurs.

 

[Rout-Ledge]

Au revoir Hugo. Don’t be a stranger.

 

[tubbygold]

I'd like to know who told him to mention 'Spurs DNA'...

Anyway, good luck to him in LA, hope he gets a nice end to his career over there. World class.

 

[olithfc]

Really hope he comes back one day in one form or the other. Maybe he can develop skills as a DoF or a future gk coach etc

 

[PCozzie]

A great servant of the club. I remember watching England play France with Harry and Hugo shaking hands on the half way line as the respective captains of the two countries and feeling immense pride. He was the World Cup winning captain, and our 'keeper. A worthy recipient of the status of Club Legend.

Bonne chance, pot pourri, bonnet de douche, Hugo.
