Daniel Levy has had his doubters during his 24-year stint as Tottenham chairman.
The 63-year-old’s critics can be found far and wide, but most importantly, from within his football club.
Levy recently opened up to Gary Neville to discuss all things football and made a raft of intriguing remarks.
Now, a former Spurs defender and open critic of the Englishman has shared his views on Levy’s tenure.
Levy to blame for lack of Tottenham silverware
Levy has spoken honestly about Tottenham in the past and voiced his regrets over appointing Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte.

However, when it comes to his legacy, he is a firm believer that he will be remembered fondly after his reign.
That is despite Spurs supporters protesting against Levy, with a lack of player investment a key issue in North London.
Last year, Ange Postecoglou delivered a much-sought-after trophy for the Lilywhites – their first in 17 years.
Now, former Tottenham defender Ramon Vega has voiced his opinion on Levy while speaking live on talkSPORT (5 August, 09:21am).
Vega spent four years with Spurs and helped them defeat Leicester City to lift the League Cup in 1999.
Vega said: “Having 20 years plus running the club, bottom line, I don’t see what he’s actually achieved.
“From an economic point of view, you have to give him credit that he’s running the club well. He’s left the club well in a very good state financially, so that part you can’t deny; you have to give him credit.
“From the football side, finally, he has won with Ange last year the Europa League, where pretty much, that’s been missing for the last 20 years, and that’s not good enough, frankly.
“Let’s have more emphasis on football investment.”
Will Levy be appreciated by Spurs fans once he leaves?
The phrase ‘you don’t know what you have until it’s gone’ is one that Levy will be hoping to hear once he leaves Tottenham.
In essence, it is tricky to judge the chairman until his time is done and somebody else takes the helm.
On current evidence, it could be argued that the 63-year-old has not done enough in his positions and should have won more trophies.
However, he would argue that he has efficiently run the North London club, leaving it more sustainable for the future.
Of course, if whoever follows wins more trophies, then that narrative would not come to fruition.
Only time will tell, and more trophies would be the easiest way to cement his legacy at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
