There were a few special performances in UEFA Champions League this week. Gallas (Tottenham); Menez (Roma); Ivanovic (Chelsea); Anelka (Chelsea); Kabore (Marseille); Gignac (Marseille); Suarez (Ajax); Mihailov (FC Twente); Martins (Benfica); Fabio (Benfica); Allan (Rangers); Mata (Valencia); Soldado (Valencia)- all made it to our short-list, but Tottenham’s Hat trick hero of last week was the stand-out candidate for this Week’s CL Player of the Week Award.

The man who started his career at the age of sixteen forSouthampton is turning out to be a real star for Tottenham, who bought him three years ago for an un-disclosed fee. The 21-year-old Wales International scored a Hat trick for Tottenham last week in their 4-3 loss to Inter Milan. Although he did not score a Hat trick this week but it was all Gareth Bale when Tottenham out classed the defending Champions 3-1. The Welsh wizard played at Left-wing position for Tottenham and enjoyed himself against Maicon, who is regarded as the best Right-back of the World. Bale proved to be a night-mare for the Inter full-back, getting past Maicon several times as if he was not there. He setup a goal for Crouch, and the way he did that was phenomenal. That was not it; Bale assisted his second and left Wight Hart Lane rocking at 89^th minute of the match.

Superlatives may not be enough to admire the performance of the Man of the Match.A huge list clubs will be chasing the Tottenham’s no. 3 in many transfer seasons to follow.
