Routledge not ready

Tottenham boss Martin Jol has a full squad to choose from for the trip to Wigan but fit-again Wayne Routledge will not be involved.

Tottenham boss Martin Jol has a full squad to choose from for the trip to Wigan but fit-again Wayne Routledge will not be involved.

Routledge, out since the opening game of the season against Portsmouth with a broken bone in his foot, has fully recovered from the injury but is a week away from being ready for a Premiership return.

Defender Anthony Gardner also played in the reserves after hamstring problems. Jol’s main selection headache surrounds the choice of strike partner for Egyptian forward Mido. Jol dropped England star Jermain Defoe to the bench for the clash with West Ham and played Robbie Keane.

Provisional squad: Cerny, Robinson, Lee, Stalteri, Dawson, King, Naybet, Davids, Carrick, Jenas, Reid, Tainio, Lennon, Defoe, Mido, Rasiak, Keane, Brown, Mendes, Davis.
