TONY PARKS repaid his managers trust by becoming a Tottenham legend.
And the man who helped bring Hugo Lloris to White Hart Lane expects the Frenchman to do the same for Mauricio Pochettino after his mistake against Liverpool.
Spurs icon Tony Parks has come to the defence of World Cup winner Hugo LlorisCredit: Hulton Archive - GettyTuesday nights Champions League game against Manchester City will be the biggest European night in Tottenham for 35 years.
But if outgoing Tottenham boss Keith Burkinshaw had listened to the critics back in 1984, he might have dropped goalkeeper Parks for the Uefa Cup final second leg against Anderlecht.
And if he had, Spurs might have missed out on one of the most famous nights in their history.
Parks, now 56, said: Im told the manager was put under pressure by the hierarchy of the club to replace me with Ray Clemence.
He was brave in his decision and adamant he wasnt going to do that.
Keith knew he was leaving so maybe that was one of the reasons he was strong enough.
Parks, back in the side after Clemences second injury of the season, had almost cost Spurs a final place with some poor handling in the second leg of the semi-final against Hajduk Split.
He still argues with defender Paul Miller about whether he was at fault for the Anderlecht goal in the first leg of the final.
LLOR AND ORDER
But there is no denying Parks proved the doubters wrong by saving two penalties in a shootout to earn Spurs their third and last European trophy.
And he has no time for anyone calling for Lloris to be dropped after his role in Toby Alderweirelds last-minute own goal against Liverpool.
Parks said: If you go back through history, you will see Ray Clemence, Peter Shilton, Gordon Banks, Lev Yashin, all greats, have made mistakes.
Because they are so few and far between, they get lost in the legend.
Hugo will be like that. He makes far more saves and does more good.
Hes a front foot, very aggressive goalkeeper in terms of dealing with the space between him and the back four. He suits the way Tottenham play perfectly. He was a pleasure to work with.
Parks was goalkeeping coach at Tottenham from 2008 to 2014 and played a key role in the 8million signing of Lloris from Lyon in 2012.
He suits the way Tottenham play perfectly. He was a pleasure to work with.

He had spent seven years working with Englands youth teams and had first seen Lloris playing for Frances Under-17s.
He said: I watched his career progress and when I got the opportunity to bring him to Tottenham it was a no-brainer because I had already done research on him.
The key quality Parks saw, and still sees, in Lloris was the one he himself lacked mental strength.
He said: The best goalkeepers are the best between their ears. They have the strongest character.
They have that resilience to mistakes. They can compartmentalise them very quickly and push them to the back of their mind.
The likes of Ray Clemence and Hugo Lloris, they are a cut above.
Parks, by his own admission, was not, and the downward spiral started soon after that amazing night.

My lifestyle wasnt good. I lost my place. Then I was blaming everyone else, which is never a good idea.
Theres only one person to look at. I never had it between my ears to be a top pro.
After spells at Norwich, Aston Villa and Watford he is now head coach at Evolution Goalkeeper Coaching. His second stint at Spurs ended in 2014 when Pochettino arrived with his own team.
But he will be willing them to more Euro glory on Tuesday.
Parks added: Man City probably wish it was still at Wembley. Its a tougher game for them now.
White Hart Lane was great when it was rocking and European nights were always special. Im pretty sure the Tottenham supporters will make the new stadium just as hot.
