Will Pavlyuchenko play for Spurs tonight?

Question

Will the Russian international play against Wolves tonight, after seemingly falling out of favour with Spurs boss Harry Redknapp?

Answer 1

Spurs take on Wolves at Molyneux, and they'll be looking for payback after the midlands club beat Tottenham at White Hart Lane just before Christmas. Pav has told Redknapp that he needs to play in order to keep his place in the Russian team, and after being frozen out by the Spurs boss the Russky is eyeing a return to his motherland, with a potential move to Locomotiv Moscow still on the table. Maybe if Pav can make a telling appearance tonight he can still figure in Harry's long-term plans? Birmingham are also interested in the player, but he's thought not to fancy a move to Birmingham.
