During his time at the club, the Russian made 113 appearances in all competitions for Spurs. He found the back of the net 42 times and picked up ten assists as well (as per Transfermarkt).

Some other Spurs fans also had words of praise for their former striker.

A couple of Spurs fans believe that Pavlyuchenko was an underrated player at the club and the others have praise for him too.

The striker had a good record in European competitions for Spurs. In the Europa League season of the 2011/12 campaign, he scored two goals in six games. In the 2010/11 Champions League main season, he found the back of the net three times in six games for the Lilywhites (as per Transfermarkt).

Clearly, Pavlyuchenko had a pretty good goalscoring tally during his time at Tottenham and because of that, it is understandable why Spurs fans have a liking for him.
