Tom Carroll's Swansea City's Spurs old boy relishes reunion

Swansea City midfielder Tom Carroll says he will find it strange trying to dent former club Tottenham's Premier League title hopes.

Carroll, 24, joined Swansea for £4.5m in January to end a 16 year association with Tottenham.

The Swans, one place and one point above the Premier League relegation zone, host Spurs on Wednesday evening.

"It will feel a bit strange for me playing them because I was there from the age of eight," Carroll said.

"Even though I have had loan spells, including here at Swansea, obviously you are not allowed to play against your parent club.
