- Jimmy Greaves is a footballing legend. He remains Tottenham's all time top scorer, and also netted over 400 goals across his career. He is one of the greatest forwards English football has ever seen, and his story is one full of both triumph and tragedy.

"One of the greatest strikers"?
He was THE greatest ever English striker.
My condolences to his family. May he rest in peace.
People didn't realise how good he was.
You don't miss something very special
untill it's gone.
The teams he played against realized!
WBA fan here, I'm a massive fan of Greavsie. The best.
Only seeing some of the clips of this legend since he sadly passed away. It's pretty obvious how good he was. The way he dribbled past players and left defenders for dead reminded me of Messi. He was a great finisher too. A real class act. The way the fans celebrated his goals showed he was almost god like. RIP Greavsie. Enjoy your well earned rest 🇨🇮
Owwwch 14 stiches from a tackle ....cant get that our of my mind!
Over 170 Goals in his first 2 Youth seasons with Chelsea is ridiculous :)
The greatest goal scorer of all time he was my hero and still remains my hero RIP JIM
Thats probably the best farwell game I have ever heard of! 4 goals in a 4-3 victory, wow😮
Woke up this morning with really heartbreaking news that Jimmy Greave passed away.One of Chelsea’s best Academy Graduates. RIP 🙏🏽
It is indeed heartbreaking, but he is at least now at peace, and will never be forgotten
Simply the best 👌
What a legend. RIP Sir James Greaves. They need a statue of him ASAP. Never heard a bad word about him, all of his peers loved him. His autobiography, "Greavsie", is the best ive ever read and thoroughly recommended.
It’s strange that we have no statues around our ground, could easily have Ledley king, bill Nicholson, jimmy greaves, sandy brown, Arthur rowe and Danny blanchflower but we’ve not got any statues at all.
@@Jaybale3 very strange..Im a Stoke fan...yeah I know!....but can't understand why the greatest goalscorer in English footballs history isn't honoured with a statue at a club where he is their record goalscorer. Sad times indeed. Best wishes to you
Thanks for this tribute. I know he was not a Winger but....:)
"Hey ! Bonnie Jim, The Man On THe Wing,
Cut Inside, Shoot and Score
Jim Was The Man Who Was Born To Be King Scoring For Evermore.......R.I.P. Jimmy...

Great goalscorer and pundit.RIP
Bill Nicholson was the Tottenham manager but little mistake aside great vid mate, really good summary of the great man’s career and life. Cheers.
Thanks mate, no idea why I got his name wrong but glad you enjoyed the vid
@@afcfinners no worries, I'm probably just being pedantic, know the time and effort that goes into making these videos, appreciate the work and tribute to Jimmy

Well the idea was good .👍Shame about the obvious mistakes “Jimmy” Nicholson signing him & only scoring one goal in
The ECWC final of 1963 , he actually scored two .
I still have no idea why I said Jimmy Nicholson, not my proudest moment 😂 thanks for corrections, apologies about the errors
@@afcfinners
I think it’s the Gooner coming out in you 🥲👍
@@gregkaye2449 I’m no gooner!
@@afcfinners
Glad to hear it 👍
Shame about the alcoholism, missing out on the final and playing for spu*s, but still a great story 👏🏼 Excellent video 👏🏼
Absolute legend, I hope he knows how much of a legacy he has
"and playing for Spurs". Cry more you Chelsea or Arsenal fan.
@@davidcopson5800 Yeah I'm crying on top of the table
RIP Jim
Rest in eternal peace Jimmy xx
Im sorry finners"one of the best" he was, is and will be goat from england.
good documentary...... but at 3 minutes 15 seconds.....listen out for jimmy signing for ''jimmy '' nickolson's team..... hmmmmm
My mistake… sorry about that
Always said that Greaves was the player who made me suffer the most. I remember the day White got struck by lightning and seeing the headline `Spurs star struck by lightning... Dead`. I couldn`t wait to get off the bus and buy the paper, I was praying that it was Greavsie. That`s how good he was and its probably the biggest compliment I can pay him. Funnily enough, despite my hatred of him as a player, I actually came to quite like him when he retired and moved into punditry. If someone had of told me that as a kid I`d have thought they`d have lost their fuckin minds.
Ahem!
BILLY Nicholson.
