He began his footballing career in his stomping ground of West Ham, signing apprentice forms with the Hammers in May 1981. Just over a year later, those forms were professional and on 1 st January 1983 he made his first team debut against Tottenham Hotspurs in the old division one, at the age of 17 years and 5 months and he scored the first goal in the 3-0 win.
His 1985-86 season with West Ham saw him score 26 goals alongside his strike partner Frank McAvennie, who scored 28, giving West Ham third place - a best ever finish in the top flight. That season also saw Tony presented with a raft of awards, including PFA Young Player of the Year, Hammer of the Year and the Fiat Uno Young Player of the Year. And to top it all, he then went on to get the very first of seven caps for his country at the age of just 21.
Tony added to his list of career highlights nearly two years later when he broke the British transfer fee in his move to Everton in July 1988 for a record £2,050,000.
