Carr and Poyet in frame for Spurs

Stephen Carr and Gus Poyet have given Spurs a boost by returning to the squad for Sunday’s visit of Bolton.

Republic of Ireland defender Carr has managed only 45 minutes this season because of knee and hamstring injuries, while a knee injury has also prevented midfielder Poyet from playing for the first team. Mauricio Taricco (groin) and Ben Thatcher (back) face fitness tests, while Les Ferdinand is ruled out with a back injury.
