Can’t believe there hasn’t been an article about his retirement so felt like I owe it to one of my favourite players for Tottenham.
By no means was Lennon one of our best ever and could be extremely frustrating at times. His crossing and final third decision making and delivery were, at times worse than Mafs ability to construct basic sentences.
He WAS a player that got you off your seat though. His electric pace and ability to go past players (when he decided to) was unreal entertainment. Had that brief spell when himself and Walcott dominated the north London debate of who you would prefer often decided by blinded loyalty.
Lennon was exactly that, a loyal servant for Tottenham. Only 5 players have represented Tottenham more in the premier league (only) than Aaron with 266 appearances only 2 behind club legend Ledley king.
His goal against Chelsea when we finally beat them at the lane.
His assist for crouch against AC Milan at the san siro in the champions league.
And that famous equaliser against arsenal away at the emirates to make it 4-4 which only the most loyal of fans stayed and watched us turn the tide against the old enemy.
I remember when He came on for Burnley during the match sonny scored his puskas winning goal and the reception he received was outstanding so I know he is well thought of.
I say again that Lennon will never be seen as one of best talents for our great club, but to me and hopefully to many others he will always be a legend at our club.
Enjoy retirement Aaron COYS
One Aaron Lennon

That equaliser!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Never forgot that …4-2 down in injury time
I’m sure modric hit the post than Lennon knocked the rebound in
I went mental
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Was that the game Bentley did the only 1 decent thing in a Spurs shirt?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You got me there mate not sure
Have a feeling we may have won the game when he scored that early long range one ….
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah that was the infamous lob game (in Bentleys defence I think he did 2 other things good in a Spurs shirt)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Was one of them soaking Harry
😂 he was so unimpressed
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yupand the other being the freekick against Wigan
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t remember the free kick so you have better memories of Bentley than me
Such a waste of talent that bloke ….he was unreal for Blackburn but hated football
Annoying for us normal folk ….I wonder if he now regrets his attitude ?

He was a good servant for Spurs but never quite reached the heights, he never really scored or assisted enough to be top class and had the shooting ability of a 12 year old. I wish him all the best in his retirement.

Didn’t realised he’d retired.
One of my favourite players - had his name on the back of an England shirt (2006?).
Always remember when he played against Blackburn and had their full back sent off for two yellow cards in the first half - he just took the lad on time and time again. Terrorised him. At least I think it was Blackburn…. I’m getting old
