Chadli: I considered leaving Spurs

Nacer Chadli says he's happy with his lot at Tottenham.

Chadli admits he considered his future at Spurs last season.

"It was a bit of everything really. I didn't have a good pre-season, I was forced to train alone and I got injured in the first two months.

"I found it difficult to get back to full fitness, the manager [Andre Villas-Boas] obviously didn't fancy me and all in all it proved very frustrating.

"I couldn't find my feet, I wasn't happy, I didn't feel I fitted in and I did start to wonder whether I would be better off going somewhere else."

He added: "I feel so much better in myself this season. I'm much fitter. In fact, I don't think I have been so fit and I'm reaping the rewards."
