Ramos: Spurs can handle Keane loss

Juande Ramos has demanded improvement from his Tottenham side but is confident his players will rise to the challenge of playing without Robbie Keane for three matches.

Keane has impressed with 12 goals this season despite Spurs’ struggles and his run of form has only been halted by a questionable decision last week from referee Phil Dowd to send off the striker for a tackle on Birmingham’s Fabrice Muamba.
