Holden wary of wounded Spurs

Bolton midfielder Stuart Holden is not getting carried away by Tottenham's growing injury list and still expects their Barclays Premier League opponents to field a strong side. Wanderers visit White Hart Lane in the knowledge that a handful of big name players, including Ledley King, Gareth Bale, Luka Modric, Tom Huddlestone and new signing Steven Pienaar are all absent. Although that is sure to give their supporters reason to cheer, USA international Holden remains certain Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has the strength in depth to put Bolton under pressure. "They have got players out but, when you look at the squad that Harry has assembled, they have got so much talent to draw on," Holden told his club's official website. "They have so many options, pace on the wings and they pose a really strong threat even though they are missing some important players. It will be tough because they showed at Blackburn (where Spurs triumphed 1-0) they are playing well and riding high."
