Too soon. Conor’s contribution will be measured by how it’s remembered in 10-20 years, which is probably a more realistic minimum for someone to be added to the hall of famed.

Others from the past would surely be ahead of him for adding eg Martijn Reuser

Reuser? A a cult hero for sure, but there’s no way he’s ahead of Conor in terms of overall contribution.

Poll: Do you think Pert is key to all of this?

That’s not the point. I’m not attempting to compare their contributions. Conor is fresh in people’s minds, and for many a player they experienced, whereas they won’t have experience of players from 10, 20 or more years ago.

It’s about how the ‘reputation’ of a player endures through the years. Typically a hall of fame recognises those that endure the years. Not someone added during their time with the club, or soon after. And he’s still our player, out on loan.

If the hall of fame was to work like that, what about Morsy?

Ok, fair enough. We’ll revisit in 20 years! I’ll be depressingly old by then

The mere concept of this "hall of fame" and "inducting" people into it, is inane American nonsense and I hate it. Players are famous, well regarded, etc for all sorts of reasons, irrespective of stupid marketing based collections of names.

Just saying.

A club legend are players who took us to our finest hours like the 61/62 side Fa cup winners and the great uefa Cup winning side although a notable achievement going from league 1 to the Premiership last season was totally embarrassing. Thank you so very much appreciated but legend.

"Legend" is well over used these days....
Got to be lifting some silverware, break the clubs all time goals record or appearance record, for me...
Love Chaplin, but he's a "fans favourite" and not a club legend in my eyes.
