Woodgate hands Harry welcome Spurs boost in behind closed doors return

14 October 2009 00:53
Tottenham defender Jonathan Woodgate has delivered a massive boost to manager Harry Redknapp after emerging unscathed from an in-house practice match on Tuesday. Woodgate has not played all season after undergoing surgery on a groin injury in the summer. But the 29-year-old centre-back is confident he has finally put the problem behind him and is itching for a return to first-team action. Redknapp is likely to tread carefully, however, and Saturday's trip to Portsmouth has probably come too soon for Woodgate.
