At Spurs, Gascoigne developed into an international class footballer. He had a stocky, powerful build that allowed him to hold off defenders and weather challenges. He combined his attacking flair with hustle and tenacity. In his first season at White Hart Lane he helped Spurs to sixth in the First Division, and to third position the following season. Over these two seasons he made a total of 75 appearances in all competitions, scoring 14 goals. In the 1990–91 season Tottenham reached the FA Cup Final after failing to get past the Third Round for the previous two seasons. Gascoigne scored six goals on the road to the final, including a spectacular free-kick against Arsenal in the semi-final at Wembley.
After three years in the Spanish sun Lineker decided to hook up again with Venables, this time at White Hart Lane, finishing as the First Division’s top scorer for the 1989/90 season – the third time he had picked up the award having also achieved it while with Leicester and Everton. He finished each of his three seasons with Spurs as the Club’s top scorer. Having starred alongside Gazza in England’s run to the World Cup semi-finals in Italy, the pair went about bringing silverware back to Spurs, and did so in spectacular style. Lineker scored twice in the famous 3-1 win against double-chasing Arsenal in the first semi-final at Wembley.
