29 scored somewhere in the region of 342 career goals. RVP at age 28 years 6 months has scored 142 career goals. So the question is will Robin score 200 goals in the next six months to overtake our legend?
The point I am trying to make is that had RVP been playing 30 or 40 years ago, he would have been classed as just another striker, today he is apparently the second coming.
PS. Jimmy very rarely took pens either.

Why do you always bring age into any decent football debate. Does it really matter whether somebody is 10 or 100 to put their point over about something football related. If they have been there, seen it, done it, don`t try to belittle it, and call them grandad, old man, etc.

Re my earlier post on Spurs being 4-0 down in Poland. I think you got the wrong end of the stick, I did say after 70 minutes, and I know we scored twice in the last 20 minutes to make it 4-2 after the first leg. The point I tried to make is that Spurs did in fact come back from 4-0 down in the tie to win.

Jimmy Greaves was a world class grafter. To mention him alongside RVP is ludicrous.
There's a reason no one, outside Spurs fans remember that guy.

I doubt that anybody in the country remembers when Arsenal won a trophy either.

Think you'll find it was your first comment, and he didn't delete your second.

Why are you defending the old man?
