Comments
VGC - Sir Tom in action during his last-ever appearance for Preston, his 433rd league game - with Luton pair Allan Brown and Alan Daniel trying to stop this cross or shot. Could play on either flank or at times at centre forward and was a regular goalscorer with 187 for his club and 30 for England - versatility and stats that some would say, put him above Stan Matthews in the pantheon of England wingers. Not all, but some. Tommy Lawton, for instance, said that while Finney would land a cross perfectly on his head, Matthews would do the same but land it with the lace on the ball facing away from Lawton's forehead.  I guess the jury is out.
