Andy Gray - Everton legend?

[blue_aussie05]

What are people's memories of him as an Everton player?

He certainly was a vital piece in Howard Kendall's jigsaw, which enabled us to gain unparalleled success in the mid 80s. Is he viewed by people here as a club legend?

Has your view of him changed since you left and went to work in the media?

Discuss.

He was a proven player who helped to give confidence within the dressing room. He also played without fear and led by example. Legend, maybe, Great, definitely......

His time as an Everton player was phenomenal, a fearless, no nonsense centre forward who inspired his team mates and struck fear into the opposition. He had a real chemistry with the crowd that he blew after joining Sky and screaming his head off... "You beauty" when Slippy scored late in a Champs League game. We should be thankful for his unbridled passion for the game and his efforts on behalf of the club, but that reaction will surely never be forgotten and possibly not forgiven.

Scored in two cup finals. And performed the daftest diving header in football history . Legend

In your opinion, why is it not applicable to Andy Gray?

LEG END may be too short of a career to be a real Legend imo!
