Tottenham Youngster Ready for Run
Spurs midfield Jake Livermore says that he is desperate for a run in the Tottenham Hotspur side and also revealed that reported target Emmanuel Adebayor would be a welcome signing.
The 21 year old scored his first Spurs goal in Thursday’s Europa League game against Hearts, in which resulted in a one sided 5-0 result for Tottenham. Livermore was called in to the side due to a string of injuries to their midfield.
He has received experience from going out on six loan spells away from the Lane, which he believes has benefited him enough to put him in contention for the club’s opening Premier League game against Manchester United on Monday at Old Trafford.
Manager Harry Redknapp has confirmed he intends to include Livermore regularly in the Europa League, and Livermore is confident that he is ready to deliver when called upon.
“Hopefully I can keep myself in the team now. I believe I am ready for the first team but it’s just a matter of getting the chance,” said Livermore.
“It’s difficult to get in because we have such a strong squad throughout. It’s hard for the manager.
“All you can do when you see your name on the team sheet is go out there and give it your all. You never know. We have a few injuries. I’ll just have to wait and see.”
