Thanks for this. I don't remember Jones playing for us in that shirt (the evidence proves me wrong again) but looking his stats up he did start 3 games and came on as sub for 4 in the 81/82 season.

Couldn't they have cropped that photo?

He always LOOKED like a better footballer than he actually was!

Really?????

Were they having dinner together?

Really?????

Sheringham and Anderton did have quite an exceptional understanding over several seasons. Only Kane and Son have created more goals for Tottenham in the Premier League era.

That picture is from the home match against Leeds in 95/96. A season in which Anderton only made a handful of appearances. That match in September was his first appearance of the season and he was injured again two matches later against QPR and didn't play again until the end of April. The high point for Anderton that season was actually in the away match against Leeds in the penultimate match of the season:

Anderton , when fit, was an exceptional player.

He was an absolutely brilliant player. He made really difficult things look very very easy hugely naturally talented footballer. Our team now lacks exactly the player he was.

Thanks for posting this. I remember watching this when it first aired on Sportsnight, way back when, and being so moved by his response. I watch it now and still feel the same.

Arthur Rowe really was the man who set us up in terms of ethos and style, a full decade before Sir Bill. Both should have statues outside the stadium, before any player.

That's an interesting shirt Ossie is holding there. The Umbro logo has the block capital lettering of the 93-95 shirt yet in all other respects it's the 91-93 shirt.

Just me then, Anderton never really 'rocked my boat' , always felt he was injured for the best part of his tenure. I was gobsmacked to learn that at one stage he held the record of appearances in the PL.

You lot and your propensity for observation and detail never ceases to amaze. Hats off to you Kid.

Imagine that pure, honest, emotional reaction from ANY modern day manager..?

... Let alone Spurs!!
