Bond insists Saha, Nelsen will make positive impact at Tottenham
Tottenham assistant coach Kevin Bond has dismissed concerns over the fitness of new signings Louis Saha and Ryan Nelsen.
The pair joined Spurs this week.
Bond insists that Saha and Nelsen's experience will prove vital to the squad as they start a nervy run-in searching for their first title since 1961.
"They are the right characters. Having those type of characters in the dressing room and the training ground will be really important for us.
"The type of people they are, I think they can make an important difference."
Bond has been impressed with how Saha has adapted to life at Spurs since his deadline day move on Tuesday.
"I wasn't in yesterday, but from what I am told, Louis Saha trained well," the Tottenham assistant added."I think that experience and that know-how of having been there before is important," he said.
