YTM Team of the Week 2

 A good week for Spurs and Pompey fans, and therefore a good week for those of you who had faith that Martin Jol would turn the Spurs ship around.

There should never have been any doubt that Tottenham would get back to winning ways.  Their frontline is quality, and any of the four strikers that they have at their disposal would get into the majority of EPL teams, including the top four.

Harry Redknapp has spent big on two strikers this summer: John Utaka and David Nugent. I suppose the big question at the start of the season was ‘Who would perform better: the Championship player or the foreign import?’ Both would have to adjust to the Premier League. The smart money was on Nugent, but Utaka seems to have bolted out of teh blocks. The Nigerian really does look the part, and his partnership with fellow countryman Kanu left Mr Nugent kicking his heels on the bench on Saturday. I am sure that Nugent will come good eventually. It will give Redknapp and many YTM managers a luxurious headache!

You can make transfers on YTM from September 4th, so keep an eye on the blog and the Team of the Week/Month pages to check who is in form and who should not be touched with a ten-foot barge pole.

Cheers,

Dave @ YTM
