Pavlyuchenko wants to stay at Spurs

Roman Pavlyuchenko has insisted that he has no intentions of leaving Tottenham anytime soon. There had been rumours that Roma were chasing the Russian international forward.

"I am a Tottenham player and want to remain one," he said.

"All these talks about a sale or loan don't bother me.

"Of course it is not pleasant to be in the reserves. When I did not play for several matches I started to think everything over and to tell the truth I had some disturbing thoughts."
