Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has hinted that the match of 13th round of English league football at West Bromwich could miss out Rafael van der Vaart and Jermain Defoe ..
Redknapp revealed related problems with Van der Vaart hamstring injury once again , and he said that the English striker Jermain Defoe because of pain in the groin left training of “Spurs”.
– Rafael has a problem with the last lodge the whole season. Again it tore on a representative assembly, but was able to clench his teeth and play a match against Aston Villa (2-0) on Monday. On Thursday it started again to bother him, said the Spurs manager.
– Jermaine has a problem with groin and on Friday had previously had to leave team training . We were left only Pavlyuchenko and Adebayor. Russian has had problems with his back, but on Thursday did a full training and looks good now – says Redknapp.
Besides these two, which are questionable, the “Spurs” on Saturday, will certainly not occur Tom Huddlestone, Michael Dawson, Danny Rose and Croatian midfielder Niko Kranjcar.
Peter Odemwingie is still likely to be missing through a knee injury, much to the annoyance of West Bromwich Albion manager Roy Hodgson. Shane Long suffered a leg injury in training but is expected to be fit.
