Bale beat the likes of Luis Suarez and Robin Van Persie to the coveted title of Player of the Year.
Andre Villas-Boas says the an ankle injury to Gareth Bale should not be too serious, despite the winger being stretchered off late on during Tottenham's 2-2 draw with Basel
Defoe, 30, has spent more seven years as a Spurs player over two spells at the club. During that time the England international has played with the likes of Dimitar Berbatov, Rafael van der Vaart, Robbie Keane and Luka Modric, but Defoe feels the squad assembled under Andre Villas-Boas is brimming with quality.
Bale caught the world's attention in October 2010 when he scored a hat-trick at the San Siro and then went on to make a mockery of Brazil right-back Maicon when Inter went down 3-1 to Spurs in the reverse fixture the following month.
Just because i till find berbatov as being moderately awesome. Could be the 30 million pounds.

Panathinaikos supporters singing Horto Magiko. I posted about this in the comments of the match preview, but wanted to share the video here. I'm a big fan of supporters chanting, basically I think large groups making noise in unison is amazing. I support the Seattle Sounders here at home and we've adapted our own version of this song, but it isn't nearly on this level. Hope Spurs run away with it today and hope we all get to hear this chant too. Enjoy.
Above is a video preview of today's UEFA qualifiers with Ryan's pretty face. Consider this your international football open thread.
