Far and away my favourite player and IMO, yes, a West Ham legend, (although I don't think he will be fully appreciated until he's retired).

An icon now, a legend if he remains for the rest of his career, which I'm sure he will!

Only one in the team who I'd be upset about if we got rid of him. Reid as well actually.

Good footballer. Amazing that he manages to get the ball down and play a bit with the shower of sh*t that surrounds him.

He'd benefit hugely too, with quality players alongside him, players to shield him, let him play.
Bit like Fat Frank then really.

A good average to above average PL player.

Loyalty can only be measured if a bigger club came in for him, which has never been the case.

A good servant to the club. A modern day beacon of West Ham.

Legend? No. What for?

Two promotions, and just losing a Fa Cup final?

I love Mark, top player for my money and would look a lot better surrounded by good players. Him Carrick and Ravel would be a lovely midfield :cry:

Doesnt make him a legend in my eyes.

Everyone has their own criteria i suppose.

Does anyone see Tony Hibbert or Leon Osman as Everton legends?

Wouldn't even make the bench at a top half team. Got the vision of Stevie Wonder and goes in for tackles like a drunk mugger. A poor team's Scott Parker.

Like the bloke and he's proper West Ham, which you don't see at our club very often nowadays.

Sadly though, he can't be mentioned in the same breath as Brooking and Bonzo. Sorry, but that's just the way it is. :crest:

He's West Ham through and through but the word "Legend" is thrown about a bit. A solid player who has had his ups and downs with us but for me his loyalty is his greatest thing. For me he's not a legend, sadly.

Both legends in my eyes, Mark is vastly underrated by the untrained eyes.

Noble is a good passer and a has been a great servant to the club. My only criticisms of him are that he doesn't score enough goals from open play, and his set pieces are often poor.
