Tottenham boss Juande Ramos insists Younes Kaboul is part of his first team plans.

Kaboul was on the bench for last night's victory over Hapoel Tel Aviv, but Ramos insisted that was not a result of the French youngster looking shaky in his last few appearances.

"I don't take much importance that Kaboul was on the bench, I take into consideration the rotation of players and that is why players come onto the pitch fresh," he said.
