Spurs start thrilled Jenas

Jermaine Jenas has hailed Tottenham's first-half performance in their Champions League Group A opener at Werder Bremen as the best of his five years at the club. Midfielder Jenas helped Spurs romp to a 2-0 lead at the Weserstadion on Tuesday night and watched them squander further chances to kill the game before Bremen came roaring back to equalise in a crazy four-minute spell either side of half-time. Although "disappointed" with the outcome, Jenas was thrilled with the visitors' early onslaught in what was their first ever match in the competition proper. He said: "In the Champions League, to come to a place like this - which is a tough place to come - and keep them quiet and put in such a performance was probably the best 43 minutes I've seen at Tottenham since I've been here."
