Spurs will still be reeling after yesterday's 1-0 defeat at home to Newcastle but perhaps some comfort can be taken from the fact Magpies goalkeeper Tim Krul had a better day than any stopper in the Premier League's last eight seasons.

Krul kept a clean sheet and made 14 saves over the course of the match at White Hart Lane which saw Tottenham pepper the Newcastle goal for much of the second half.

Krul's magnificent 14 - and his 0 goals conceded - beats previous records held by Paddy Kenny, David James, and Brad Friedel, who all made 12 saves in a game and conceded more than once doing so.
