Zokora: we´ll be better next yr

Tottenham mdifielder Didier Zokora believes that Spurs will be a force to be reckoned with next season as Juande Ramos begins his first full season.

"Modric's arrival is great news for fans, as it shows we mean business," said Zokora.

"This is a club that has the fan base and the money to try to get into the top four Champions League places next season - and we will do it. I'm convinced we can and will do it.

"I watch my Ivory Coast friends Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou playing for Chelsea in the Champions League and just wish it was me.

"I only want the best. That is what all the players at Spurs want and, under Ramos, we can do it - we can become a top-four club. Why not?"
