Tottenham ace Van der Vaart: No reason to fear AC Milan

Tottenham ace Rafael van der Vaart insists they're capable of upsetting AC Milan at the San Siro.

Spurs are hampered, however, by the loss of talisman Gareth Bale, Luka Modric, Tom Huddlestone, Jermaine Jenas and Peter Crouch.

But Van der Vaart, who has so far hit 12 goals in his debut season, told the club's official mag: "When we go back to Milan we have no need to be afraid.

"It's a big stadium with great players and that's our environment. We have every right to be there.

"It's all to do with belief. With a big game you have to have the feeling that you are going to win and we had that against Inter.

"It was one of the biggest games. But of course, there was also the game against Arsenal at the Emirates when we won there. It was a strange game - 2-0 down and then we win the game."
