Tottenham goalkeeper Brad Friedel says that his sides big-game players will thrive when it comes down to the business end of the season, according to the Sun.
Tottenham were on a three game losing streak until their 2-1 win over Swansea on Saturday, with Wales winger Bale yet again the difference .
The London club now have a busy period ahead of them starting tomorrow, as they face Swiss side Basel in the Europa League quarter-final first leg.
Andre Villas-Boas and his men then have a tough home game against Everton before they’re back on their travels again, with the return leg of the Europa League in Basel, Switzerland.
But American keeper Friedel is looking forward to the run in: “I think it is better for us that we now have some tough games coming up.
“The bigger the game, the more the players will step up to the plate.”
Brad Friedel is Andre Villas-Boas’ first choice keeper when it comes to European games, and the former Blackburn keeper insists the win at Swansea on Saturday just goes to show that him and his teammates hold no nerves after their recent blip.
He added: “It might be nervy for the people who think about it and watch it but in-house we know what we want to do.”
