TAARABT BACK IN CONTENTION
Close Story
There's mixed news from the treatment room this morning (Tuesday), as the countdown to our Carling Cup third round tie against Chelsea continues to gather pace.
On the plus side, mercurial midfielder Adel Taarabt has returned to full training following a bout of mumps.
The Spurs loanee missed Saturday's 2-0 victory at Cardiff City, but returned to full training on Monday morning and with Ben Watson Cup tied for the trip to Stamford Bridge, the Moroccan international could force his way into Jim Magilton's thinking for the local derby.
Unfortunately, the news is less than positive where Matthew Connolly is concerned.
The reliable defender is still laid low with a virus and is set to miss the trip to Stamford Bridge.
However, fellow defender Fitz Hall is back in light training following a recent groin strain and could be in line to return in the next seven days.Comment
