Much as I love Glenn and what he did for us, I'm afraid Zamora will always be a bigger legend for me. Part of our real revival after the dark years.

Muzza for me, a huge number of goals in two promotions that took us to the top and kept us there. My favourite Albion player.

Whilst Zamora is also special for his goal scoring when we had a tiny budget playing in an athletics ground.

Impossible call for me.

As a player Zamora in his prime had more talent, and was an unreal player for us in his first spell.

With Murray scoring the goals in our promotion year and first year staying up in the PL he has achieved more.

2 different players in different eras, There have been plenty of other important, or 'legendary' players in the last 20 years.

Zamora. He was by far the single best player in the entire division for those two promotion seasons, an outstanding talent and once-in-a-lifetime signing who totally transformed the club’s fortunes and trajectory. Without him things would have been very different.

Glenn has been a wonderful club servant, canny player and impressively reliable goal scorer. He’s been key to the club and our path to the PL, and is undoubtedly an Albion legend, but Zamora’s impact was more.

I don't want to answer that question. They were both legends in diffrent era's, I love them both.

It’s interesting because I see it the other way round. Yes Zamora helped us out of the bottom tier but both Murray and Zamora helped us into the championship and actually Murray’s was more important given the Amex.

Having knocked on the door of the premier league for years it was Murray’s goals that got us there and then kept us there which has totally changed the direction of the club for years to come. In terms of the future of our club it’s Murray’s goals that have had the bigger impact.

Where Bobby was fantastic, Glenn is our highest post-war goalscorer, was the most important reason for the two most important promotions in the club's recent history and did the impossible on being better on his return than the first time round.

Bobby was my hero growing up but I don't think there has been a modern day player who has had a more important effect on the club than Muzza. He's the real legend.

Zamora once missed a sitter when playing against us.. I'm certain he did it on purpose.

Murray scored against us multiple times for Palace.
