Jenas gets the nod for Spurs

Jermaine Jenas is a surprise starter for Tottenham’s first ever game in the Champions League proper at Werder Bremen tonight.

Playing just his second game of the season after being repeatedly linked with a move away from White Hart Lane this summer, the midfielder comes in for the injured Luka Modric as manager Harry Redknapp kept his pledge to field a 4-5-1 formation away from home in Europe.
