Striker believes current group is the best

Jermain Defoe believes Tottenham's current crop of stars is the best squad he has played with at White Hart Lane. Spurs maintained their impressive run of form on Saturday with a hard-fought 3-1 win away to West Brom. Defoe found the back of the net in the game and he believes manager Harry Redknapp could field two teams. Spurs are third in the Premier League ladder and Defoe believes the sky is the limit for the north Londoners.

Unbelievable

"I think this is the best group of players I've been involved with," said Defoe. "The squad is unbelievable. "We've got two great teams in effect we can put out to be honest and it is a great time to be at the club. "I just think the sky's the limit for Tottenham really." Defoe has stayed positive despite his frustration at being out of the starting line-up. He said: "Sometimes when you haven't played for a while it is difficult in terms of your sharpness. "But I felt sharp at West Brom. I've always kept myself sharp in training even if I have to a little bit extra because I haven't played. "I've done that and I felt really good."
