Player expectations for next year ! (Verthongen)

Super Jan as he is known was one of our best players last year. Unfortunately Jan was injured yesterday in the Barclays Asia Trophy which looked rather serious but hopefully it is nothing to serious and he is able to start the new season.

I expect Jan to start at the back next year and I expect him to work brilliantly in a partnership with Younes Kaboul who was out all of last year. I expect Jan to be just as strong and physical next year. Last year Jan proved that not only did Jan help us a lot with not conceding but he also helped us score a lot last year and he proved that he can score with his feet and for a centre back he is very skilful this was what made him get such a great status in the league. I expect next year he will establish himself as one of the best defenders in the league and he will definitely be a key figure in helping Spurs challenge for top four.
