Jimmy Dimmock, netted the only goal of the 1921 cup final scored over 100 club goals for Spurs, local club lad, born in Edmonton. Les Bennett, member of our title winning side 1951, also scored 120 plus goals, born in Wood Green. Not conventional out and out strikers as we know, but nevertheless strikers all the same.
Mark Falco is the last decent Home grown Striker I can remember we have had a few pretenders since like Lee Barnard and we have Harry Kane & the lad Lancaster coming through however I think that the size of Harry Kane's nose is going to be a problem it is holding him back !!
Falco is the only decent striker to have come thru the ranks that I can recall.
He was part of the last batch of players I've seen who came thru the ranks together to become well-used squad players.

"Why are we so unable to produce a decent striker?!"
If you look over the past 30 yrs, IMHO you will find very few top flight English clubs who developed their own striker, or bought a young talent from another club and then nurtured them into the finished article.
Owen is the most obvious example.
Lineker, Teddy, Shearer, Ferdinand etc are the opposite.
