Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham run champions Leicester close in last season’s Premier League, and Spurs fans will be hoping that their side can go one better this time around.

And they’ve made a solid if unspectacular start to this campaign as they look to end a 55-year wait for the top-flight title.

Spurs are the only unbeaten side left in the Premier League having won five and drawn six of their first 11 games, although they could really have done with turning some of those draws into victories as, despite their unbeaten start, they are already five points adrift of leaders Liverpool.

Nevertheless, Spurs have proved to be tough to beat so far in the league this season, although the same cannot be said of the Champions League, where they have won one and lost two of their opening four group games.

They will need to get a result in Monaco next week to keep their European campaign alive, although they’ll hope to end a run of four straight league draws before then when they host West Ham on Saturday.

With international football disrupting the regular season, we at Shoot! have taken a look at Spurs’ history, and selected their TOP THREE strikers of all time…

    I’ve been watching Spurs since 1964 & here’s my 1-2-3:
    1. Dimitar Berbatov – The complete front-man, total quality
    2. Jimmy Greaves – The greatest finisher (& my idol, as a kid)
    3. Harry Kane – the best is yet to come
    Also rans – Teddy Sheringham, Alan Gilzean, Jermain Defoe, Steve Archibald

    Been supporting Spurs since 1951 Greaves Gilzean Smith in that order the thing about Gilly was he played for the team would have scored many more goals if he had been more selfish I’d love to know how many assists he had.

    I’ve been watching Tottenham since the 1982-83 centenary season, and the best strikers I have seen at the club, during this time, are:

    1) Gary Lineker
    2) Jurgen Klinsmann (in his first season)
    3) Dimitar Berbatov

    Other favourites: Steve Archibald; Teddy Sheringham; Jermain Defoe and Harry Kane

    I would agree with the top three strikers in the original article – and Greavsie would easily be the greatest Tottenham striker. Used to love watching him on “Saint and Greavsie” in the 80s!

    absolutely agree with your top 3. Greaves is number 1 by a country mile. Bobby Smith and Big Chiv have the goals to justify their inclusion. The best may be yet to come Dickspur but way to early to compare Harry to any of these 3.Fingers crossed he gets to number 2 on our all time scoring charts. I selfishly do not want anyone beating Greavsey who to me is God. 🙂 As for Berbatov, great player but not even a Spurs great in my opinion. Not at WHL long enough to justify being that. COYS
