O'Hara: Giovani settling quickly at Spurs

Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara admits Giovani dos Santos has made as good an impression off the pitch as he has on it in preseason.

"Gio is a great lad," he said. "He is a fantastic player and has bonded well with us. He's a happy-go-lucky lad and a great character to have in the squad. And he's always smiling."

Dos Santos turned in a goal scoring performance in Sunday's victory over Borussia Dortmund and added: "Ronaldinho is an example for every young player.

"When he developed himself, when he had to look in the mirror, he stayed himself. Yes, I was very happy with the goal. Every game I try to be better and play better with the team."
