After 46 goals in 170 games for Newcastle, he moved to Tottenham Hotspur in July 1985 for a fee of £590,000. At Tottenham he established himself as a regular in the England team, playing in the side that reached the quarter finals of the 1986 FIFA World Cup in Mexico linking up again with Beardsley. In July 1989, after scoring 42 times in 172 appearances for Tottenham, Waddle moved to Olympique de Marseille for a fee of £4.5 million, the third highest fee in history at that time. In a team of stars he was one of the top players and during his time there the club were French champions three times (1990, 1991 and 1992). Waddle was seen as a strong contender for the 1991 European Footballer of the Year. However after Red Star Belgrade won the 1991 European Cup Final, on penalties whose stated tactic was to play for penalties with waddle having a rather ineffectual game, Jean Pierre Papin won European Footballer of the Year. Chris Waddle's performances in the 90-91 season were phenomenal, and probably the most complete season of a British player abroad since John Charles in the 1950s and Kevin Keegan in the 1970s. Waddle's time at Marseille is often overlooked. His style was unique. The lazy, loping dribbles, the improvisation, the nutmegs, the stepovers, superb player. _________________ Alan Hansen wrote: How come Liverpool games are on last at the moment?
