Despite being two months out and in the middle of the World Cup in South Africa, the thought of Liverpool v Arsenal and Tottenham v Manchester City on opening day has me marking the calendar.
Tottenham
Nickname: The Spurs
Formed: 1882
Stadium: White Hart Lane
Manager: Manager: Harry Redknapp
Last season: 8th in Premier League, FA Cup 4th rnd, League Cup runners-up, UEFA Cup last 32
Tottenham Hotspur’s long tradition of playing attractive, attacking football dates way back to the start of the 20th century when they became the first non-Football League club to win the F.A. Cup in 1901. It was a reputation further enhanced by Bill Nicholson’s double-winning Glory Days of the 1960s, with stars such as Danny Blanchflower, Jimmy Greaves, Glenn Hoddle, Ossie Ardiles, Paul Gascoigne, Gary Lineker, Jurgen Klinsmann and David Ginola all gracing White Hart Lane over the years. Today’s current crop of favourites include internationals Robbie Keane, Jermain Defoe, Luka Modric and Ledley King, as the Spurs go in search of Champions League qualification under manager Harry Redknapp.
