Defoe proud to make history with Tottenham

Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe is proud to be making history at White Hart Lane.

Defoe has just broken Martin Chivers' 39-year-old record for the most Spurs goals in Europe and, despite the lack of activity, he has his eyes fixed on another record.

"I am one of the top five all-time scorers for this club - I still can't believe that," he told the Daily Express.

"I actually wrote down the list at my house and put it on my mirror. I was going through the list and the players who are underneath me, like Teddy Sheringham, Robbie Keane and all the other great players. Jimmy Greaves is at the top. It is just crazy. It has just been a dream."
