TOTTENHAM CAN WIN

DEFOE RULED OUT
Jermain Defoe will not be able to feature for England in the upcoming friendly match against Brazil because of the ankle injury that he discovered while playing for Tottenham Hotspur in the match against West Bromwich Albion which was played yesterday.
Defoe’s left ankle got injured in the 35th minute of the match and he had to come out of the ground. Later, in the post match press conference, the manager of Tottenham, Andre Villas Boas confirmed that Defoe’s injury is severe and it could take him a few weeks to recover from this injury.

After finding himself largely on the fringes under the previous manager Harry Redknapp, Jermain Defoe has been one of the key players for Tottenham this season. He has rewarded the faith shown by the manager Andre Villas-Boas by already scoring nine goals in the league alone. He is third in the list of top scorers for this season. He has also scored 13 goals in all competitions for the club.
DEFOE STARS FOR SPURS
Jermain Defoe was the star of the Tottenham team, as he helped them to finally bring an end to the poor run of form they have been experiencing in recent weeks.
Tottenham were coming into the match against West Ham United on the back of three consecutive defeats in the Premier league. This has almost destroyed their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League next season.
SPURS BEAT READING

DEFOE NEARLY MOVED IN JANUARY
Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe has revealed that he came extremely close to leaving Tottenham in the January transfer window.
The England striker has grown frustrated about the lack of opportunities at Tottenham due to the fact that they have Emmanuel Adebayor as their main striker. Even though the former Arsenal man is currently on a loan deal from Manchester City, Harry Redknapp is prepared to play him over the Spurs player Jermain Defoe.
DEFOE NETS TWICE
Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe proved his worth just at the right time for Tottenham after he scored two goals in a match against Stevenage, which helped the North London club to get into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
Stevenage managed to hold out Tottenham to a 1-1 draw in the match, which led to the replay for Tottenham. Harry Redknapp was extremely keen to win this match and progress to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, despite the fact that the prospect of finishing in the fourth place in the league was far more important.
