JENAS ENJOYING HIS FOOTBALL

Jermaine Jenas is finally enjoying this season after a woeful start to the season by Tottenham hotspurs.They lost many games at the start which saw Martin Jol sacked and his successor Juande Ramos has finally succeded in bringing a feel good environment to the players out there.Jenas has said that the good atmosphere is there because they still have a chance to win a silverware this season and also they have recovered now in the EPL to sit at the midtable.Tottenham face Slavia Prague in the UEFA cup in the round of 32 and also face chelsea in the finals of the Carling cup.Jenas hope should certainly become true for all the tottenham fans.

TOTTENHAM BLANK DERBY COUNTY

Tottenham hotspurs just proved too strong for their fellow premier league strugglers Derby County and they defeated them 3-0 with all three of them coming in second half.Captain and ace striker Robbie Keane got the spurs off the mark midway through the second half in a contest which was essentially very dull in the first half.Younes Kaboul and Dimitar Berbatov completed the formalities for Tottenham in what was essentially like a warm up match for the spurs.Derby have now resigned themselves to relegation while Spurs will be looking to challenge for the UEFA cup spot in a season where they have flattered to decieve as usual.

DEFOE TO PORTSMOUTH

England and Tottenham striker Jermaine Defoe has clinched a last minute deal to portsmouth in the transfer window.This has happened so for an undisclosed fee.He is said to have expressed his wish to move to Fratton park thereby ending his four year reign with Tottenham.Defoe had worked in the past with Harry Redknapp at West Ham.Defoe's arrival also means that it will allow Benjani to clinch a deal with Manchester City.Defoe has been deprived of action so far this season and has made only three starting appearances so far in the Premier league.

DEFOE TO ASTON VILLA OR NEWCASTLE?

There were reports and strong suggestions that Jermaine Defoe went to Birmingham and had a look at Aston Villa's training ground.Martin O Neill the Aston Villa manager refuted the claims that Jermaine Defoe was on the brink on signing up with his club and denied having a strong contact with Defoe himself.O Neill however denied not having an interest in Defoe and Aston Villa could bid for him and Newcastle's new manaager could also attempt to land him in order to have a partnership between him and Micheal Owen.What happens to this benched Tottenham star remains to be seen.

SPURS SLIP UP BIG TIME

Tottenham Hotspurs took on Arsenal at the Emirates stadium and much was expected from the recently rejuvenated spurs.They got some golden opportunities which would have sealed the fate of the match but it was some messy work from the usually reliable and classy Robbie Keane which cost the spurs the match itself.This match was a disappointment in the first half but began red hot into the second half with Arsenal's Emmanuel Adebayor snatching the lead for the Gunners.Tottenham had a golden chance with Robbie Keane striking the post from the mouth of the goal post.He made amends however after three minutes with a lovely reverse pass to the skilful Dimitar Berbatov who smashed it via the near post past a hapless Manuel Alumnia.Tottenham got a penalty five minutes later but Robbie Keane messed it up.Then the little known Bentdner came as a substitute for Arsenal and hit a lovely header from the corner kick to win the match for Arsenal 2-1.
