If the bottom story doesn't highlight the need for another striker, then nothing will. We can't afford to be giving points away to lower table teams like Stoke, I really hope a few of these are over exaggerated.
Tottenham have an injury crisis for Saturday's Premier League game at Stoke, with Harry Redknapp admitting he is struggling to fill his bench.Peter Crouch is Spurs' only fit striker, with Jermain Defoe (groin), Robbie Keane (knee) and Roman Pavyluchenko (ankle) all out.
Giovani dos Santos (hamstring) also picked up an injury on the artificial pitch at Young Boys on Tuesday night, Luka Modric has failed to recover from his groin strain, while Redknapp must decide whether to field Ledley King or save him for Wednesday's Champions League return match with the Swiss side.
Spurs (from): Gomes, Cudicini, King, Hutton, Bale, Kaboul, Naughton, Bassong, Dawson, Corluka, Jenas, Assou-Ekotto, Walker, Huddlestone, Rose, Lennon, Palacios, Kranjcar, Crouch.
