Tottenham faces a tough game on Sunday at Manchester City as the Spurs try and recover from a heart breaking loss in the Soccer Betting UEFA Cup to PSV Eindhoven. Tottenham lost in the penalty shootout to PSV and now comes rumors that manager Juande Ramos is going to get rid of many players after the season. It seems unlikely that Dimitar Berbatov will return. Goalkeeper Paul Robinson is almost assuredly out as well. The Spurs probably won’t bring back Pascal Chimbonda either. It is expected that Alan Hutton, Robbie Keane, Jonathan Woodgate, Jermaine Jenas and Ledley King are the only locks to return. Tottenham is looking at picking up players like Daniel Jarque (Espanyol) and Cata Diaz (Getafe), midfielder Esteban Granero (Real Madrid) and striker Diego Milito (Real Zaragoza).
