Twice surely - Jimmy Greaves and Martin Peters

Peters was part of a swop deal £55'000 plus Jimmy Greaves , very hard to say who got the best deal out of that. I remember being gutted when I heard Jimmy had left. Seem to remember he scored on the return to the lane
 
We never saw the real Martin Chivers at the start of his time at Spurs he did his cruciate not long after joining , when he returned he lost some pace but the partnership he formed with Gilzean was the best I had seen in the 70's at the lane.
 
My feelings about Soldado depend a lot on whether Arsenal land a marquee striker. If they don't, while I would still want Soldado, I don't feel that strongly about it. If they do, I think we need to get him.

Not to wander onto my favorite topic of formation and tactics, but the talk about crosses makes me want to mention that while we didn't cross, we did shoot. We had the most on-target shots in the league.

I like that, incidentally. If you don't shoot, you can't score (well, you can score, actually, but not often).

I had not heard that stat but it fits in with my feeling that an absurd number of goalkeepers tend to have the games of the lives against us. And similarly the complete opposite against Arsenal *cough*Fulop*cough*
When was the last time we benefited from a clanger?
 
Wigan away near the end of the season. Booted the ball straight into Bale and back into the net. Joel Robles, was it?
 
What about dempseys against stoke? Wasn't that a goalkeeper error?
 
Ok, so what we have learned is we score when we don't deserve to and don't when we do. Typical spurs ;)
