van der Vaart targets FA Cup and Champions League for Tottenham

Rafael van der Vaart is hoping he and his Tottenham teammates can produce a big finish to their season after a mini-slump.

Spurs remained fourth on the table following Saturday's scoreless draw at Chelsea, which came after three straight losses and a draw with Stoke City, but the Dutchman is eyeing a marked improvement on results in the next few months.

Tomorrow night, Tottenham host Bolton in the FA Cup quarter-final replay for the chance to meet Chelsea in the semi-finals at Wembley and van der Vaart is targeting glory in that competition as well as a top-four finish in the league.

"We want to end in the top four and win the FA Cup - it would be great," he said.

"It would be a dream, especially [to play] at Wembley. So let's win Tuesday and then get Chelsea.

"The FA Cup is massive, especially the cup final.

"It's massive in Holland as well. It's still a long way to go but it's just two games and you're in the final."
