Vlad Chiriches was delighted to make a winning full debut for Tottenham at Aston Villa on Sunday.
The Romania defender made his first Premier League start at Villa Park.
"I'm glad about the Aston Villa game and I am proud to have started in the Premier League for the first time," he told the Spurs website.
"I think it will be a good game for us on Thursday (at FC Sherriff), and I think we can win the match and (go on to) finish first in the group.
"I have played against Sheriff before, although it was just in a friendly. They are a decent team so we will have to be strong."
