Former Fulham player Clint Dempsey has revealed why he left Craven Cottage in favour of a £6million switch across the capital to Tottenham.

Jan Vertonghen, who signed for Spurs this summer, knows Jol well having worked with him at Ajax and has warned Spurs they must not get complacent and has predicted a tough test this weekend. "I liked working with him and he gave me a lot of confidence," Vertonghen said. "He is a good trainer. I was always doubting whether I was a left-back, a central midfielder, or a centre-back. He just told me I was a centre-back and he let me play there for two seasons and I started playing well. "We've had two good wins but Fulham are a well-organised team."
