It's been an unhappy stay at Aston Villa for Jermaine Jenas and after waiting to make his debut for the Midlands side, news has been confirmed that he is likely to out for the rest of the season.

The announcement on Tottenham's official club website reads,

‘Jermaine Jenas has undergone surgery to his left Achilles tendon and is likely to miss the rest of the season, but should return for the start of pre-season.

They obviously can't be bothered, so neither can I. It was a positive line-up, but Utd never needed to get out of 1st gear. McLeish must be giving out his instructions in Russian or something because he's managed to make some very capable players look like they haven't the first clue what they're doing.

The game went ahead amidst many calls for its postponement following the tragic news of Gary Speed's death. The result doesn't seem that important in the scheme of things right now, but it's probably a point that will prove invaluable at the end of the season.
Following a heart warming and entirely spontaneous round of applause in place of the planned minute of silence, the first half didn't provide any shocks.

This game will go ahead despite the tragic news that Wales manager, Gary Speed, has apparently taken his own life. Naturally, with the game being in Wales and a number of internationals involved, the game will inevitably be effected in some way. Such sad news.

Alex McLeish has promised a better performance than we were treated to at White Hart Lane and, in all honesty, it would be difficult to be much worse.

Remember the Premier League? Yeah, we're finally back in action tonight for our first league game under the floodlights of 2011/12. Returning to White Hart Lane also happens to be significant for Alex McLeish, but that's not something we wish to dwell on.

Truth is, coming back from North London with a point has generally been a decent result for us in the past, you'll do well to find many Villa fans optimistic about grabbing something tonight.

Chris Herd's performances have rightly earned him quite a few headlines in the last couple of weeks. Initially for the wrong reason, but lately for the right ones.

Alex McLeish has said that he's "a manager's dream; the best trainer at the club".

He will train the way he plays on Saturday by giving it absolutely everything.

A much improved performance from Villa in a lively game led to a vital three points at home thanks to two goals from Darren Bent, and a goal for the provider of both those goals; man of the match Gabby Agbonlahor. Goals from Anthony Pilkington and Steve Morison bookended the home goals, and set up a nervous final ten minutes.

You have to go all the way back to 2004/05 to find the last time this fixture was played; a 3-0 win under David O'Leary. Alex McLeish could really do with something similar today.

Darren Bent has said that one goal could open the floodgates, and McLeish has "rubbished" silly rumours of a January sale.

Would you want Agbonlahor at Spurs?

Spurs may have missed out on a move for Ashley Young in recent years, but could they look to Aston Villa again in an attempt to persuade Gabriel Agbonlahor to move to North London?

Reports today are suggesting that Harry Redknapp could be about to prepare a £20m bid in time for the January transfer window as he attempts to strengthen his striking options for the rest of the campaign.

Sky Sports and bad punditry

I'm not a fan of Sky Sports; despite watching it more than I should. It's shallow and far too excitable when covering the most mundane topic. I watch it anyway and it can be funny in seeing how relentless they can be in self-promotion. What annoys me though is the punditry, and how bad it is at times.

Transfer Window Helps Tottenham to Mature - originally posted on Soccerlens.com

The transfer window closed with Tottenham Hotspur making only two significant deals, but perhaps the North London club has finally grown up.

The signings of Emmanuel Adebayor and Scott Parker, address issues within the Spurs line up, but left the fans with a deep sense of anti climax.

Up until the very last day of the transfer window it had looked as if much of the deadwood was staying at the Lane. However, deals can happen very quickly and Jermaine Jenas and David Bentley will both be lining up in claret and blue this season, and their lack of first team action at Spurs could see both deals becoming permanent.

So the dust has settled on the summer transfer of August 2011 and while it was a busy day at Spurs Lodge, was it a satisfactory one?

Five of our fringe players have left the club, albeit two are on loan with seemingly no future at the Lane and while Harry Redknapp said at the weekend that fresh faces were needed, we only ended up with one – Scott Parker who arrived from West Ham.

Fortunately for these managers, not all is lost when they fail to agree a fee for someone they really want to bring to their clubs.

Beyond this, there is a lot of momentum concerning a bid for Gary Cahill which may involve Sebastien Bassong going the other way.

From the first two games of our season, it seems apparent that Peter Crouch is the odd striker out and having not featured thus far, it's suggested that Harry is just waiting to seal the Adebayor deal before letting Crouch go.

After a day of social unrest disrupted Tottenham's opening day game at home to Everton, they face the rather more difficult task of going away to champions Manchester United.

Only time will tell if the late start to Tottenham's season will have a positive or negative effect. On one hand the extra few days of rest might be beneficial to the players' fitness; but then on the other, playing catch up from the off is never ideal and could have an impact on morale if things don't go quite to plan early on.

While the Gary Cahill rumours continue, it had been previously suggested that Spurs may have been willing to let Sebastien Bassong, Younes Kaboul and even Danny Rose go in the other direction.

While there has been a little talk and maybe much hope over Jermaine Jenas leaving Tottenham this summer, there have been very few strong rumours up until now. Other than some brief suggestions that he was on Neil Warnock's QPR radar, it has all been very quiet as far as JJ was concerned.

Yesterday however, stories began to surface that Fenerbahce were preparing an offer, believed to be in the region of around £5m for the midfielder.

Is anyone starting to get frustrated at the way Spurs conduct their transfer activity?

With our backs to the wall, when players have had their heads turned, you have to admire how Daniel Levy has drained millions from other chairman for the likes of Berbatov, Carrick and Keane.

Unfortunately the flip side of this approach has meant that Spurs are stuck with a large group of players that are beyond the age where they can improve, and their wages and valuations are so high we can't get rid of them.
