Tottenham Hotspur defender William Gallas has hailed Swansea City for their attacking football before Sunday’s game against them, and insists that they play the best football in the English top flight.
Andre Villas-Boas’ men meet http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-c25261 Laudrup’s men on Sunday at White Hart Lane, and Gallas is well aware of the threat that Swansea pose. The Frenchman believes his side are in for a tough and difficult encounter as they take on Swansea, and labelled them
as a team who are ‘not scared to play’.
Fresh from a dramatic and last minute defeat against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 last week in the Premier League, Tottenham have dropped down to 5th spot while Everton have moved up to 4th.
Spurs had been cruising to victory, up until stoppage time when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nikica-Jelavic-c27906 grabbed two stoppage time goals and ultimately the victory and the 3 points.
Villas-Boas was disappointed after last week’s game, but has demanded his team to bounce back by getting a result against Swansea this weekend. However, he was quick to warn his players not take Swansea lightly, and is well aware of the threat that they
pose.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/William-Gallas-c36874 also holds the same opinion, and has hailed Swansea’s fearless approach before both teams face off.
The player feels that Tottenham will be tested by the Swans, and will have to hold their own and beat them at their own game. Speaking to the club’s official website, the Frenchman said:
“They play the best football and they are not scared to play. It won’t be easy to beat them, even if they lost against Norwich. We have to be careful with how they play – quick between the lines – and we’ll work hard on the training ground to be ready.”
“We have to come back strong after Everton because this is a big game. It will be important for us to take the three points.”
In other news, Tottenham welcome back http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gareth-Bale-c14422 to the team going into Sunday’s clash, while long term absentees Benoit Assou-Ekotto and Scott Parker may make the bench. This gives Villas-Boas a major boost as his team finally returns
to full strength and depth.
