Jol waits on players' fitness

Tottenham coach Martin Jol will wait for late fitness reports on a number of players before deciding on his squad for Saturday’s FA Cup fourth round replay at White Hart Lane.

Tottenham coach Martin Jol will wait for late fitness reports on a number of players before deciding on his squad for Saturday’s FA Cup fourth round replay at White Hart Lane.

Full-back Noe Pamarot has recovered from the chest infection that kept him out of the side who beat Portsmouth in the Barclays Premiership last weekend.

But Spurs will face Albion without new signings Andy Reid, Michael Dawson (also shin injury) and Mido, who are all cup-tied.

Sean Davis (back) and Reto Ziegler (hamstring) are both absentees while Jol will await medical reports on skipper Ledley King (groin) and Fredi Kanoute (groin).

Defender Anthony Gardner underwent surgery on his broken nose last Monday but should be fit for inclusion.

Jol also has a worry over Pedro Mendes, who hurt a cheekbone in training, and Noureddine Naybet, who has been carrying a groin injury for the last two months.

Provisional squad: Robinson, Cerny, Pamarot, Edman, King, Gardner, Naybet, Atouba, Davies, Marney, Kelly, Brown, Carrick, Keane, Defoe, Kanoute, Mendes, Bunjevcevic.
