Yes because of the dross since 2005, anyone with a 'Proper Charlton' work ethic is bound to stand out more... but to me he's up there with John Humphrey and Stevie Brown. All legends to me - made you beam with pride the sheer commitment to the cause. If only we did have a team of Kermorgants.

The other players don't even like Yann. He's a poor trainer & they don't understand why the manager & fans love him so much !

But if Powell wanted to sell him then why did he say the opposite in the paper yesterday?

really? Not buying that.

I didn't say powell wanted to sell him I think its strange that he was so close to the extension being triggered that it never happened

What makes Darren Bent a legend?

Saying he wouldn't sign for Palace makes him a legend!

Rob62 · January 2014

It's not strange. I think you know the reason why it wasn't triggered.

AdamAddick · January 2014

im not sure if anyones picked up on this but powell said in his interview yesterday 'its not a case of matching them (bournemouth) i think its a case of yann may not wanting to do it'

Well he's a legend in my mind.

I'm only good for 5-6 games a year live. In the last two and a half seasons this is the player who more than any other (Chris Solly would be the closest) has restored my pride in the club after years of the hellish destruction of all my dreams.

It seems to me that in the few games I saw, every one I really enjoyed was lit up by a goal from Yann. And being Yann, they weren't tap ins. Yeovil away, Watford away...then there was the time he ended up bandaged like the Mummy. And I am glad to say that the best performance I saw from him was very recent. Brighton. That was a titanic performance from start to finish, smacked about as usual by desperate defenders, crowned with an exquisite free kick, all on a mud heap. We'd have lost that game without him, yet we spanked them.

I've got a signed shirt from him, first such shirt I've been proud to have on display for years. And I'm not about to burn it.

Same. Yann makes it worth the journey. Watching Charlton recently without Yann would have been torture.

Surely it's subjective. If you're 11 years old then he probably is to you. If you're old enough to have seen Mendonca and Hunt or Killer or Bartram then Kerms isn't on that pantheon.

People trying to tell who they can and can't hold up as legends has been one of the most tedious things to read on the Charlton forums over the last few days.

Really well said. I'd also add that Yann was a cult hero who came at just the right time. There'd been a dearth in players who appeared to truly care. But losing him is not a long term problem IMO, and that alone tells me he's not up there with the others.
