Peter Houtman

Peter Houtman is a player I fall for on numbers alone. Ninety goals in 153 official matches for Feyenoord is a strike rate that borders on the absurd, and seven goals in just eight Netherlands caps says the same thing in miniature. A Rotterdam-born striker who became a homegrown hero at his city's grandest club, he also tested himself at Club Brugge and Sporting CP. He belongs to that vivid 1980s European generation you can recount in goals. Long retired now, he surely remains etched in Feyenoord supporters' memory, and I confess a soft spot for born finishers like him.

Peter Houtman (born 4 June 1957) is a Dutch retired professional footballer who played as a striker. He obtained eight caps for the Netherlands national team in the 1980s, scoring seven goals. Houtman played for Feyenoord Rotterdam and FC Groningen. He also had spells with Club Brugge, Sporting CP, Sparta Rotterdam, ADO Den Haag and Excelsior Rotterdam. For Feyenoord he scored 90 goals in 153 official matches.
