'Playing Tottenham in the cup again - my career's come full circle!'

The recent draw for the third round of the FA Cup was special and significant for one former Liverpool player in particular.

While the Reds face a trip to Aston Villa, it was Marine FC's pairing with Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur that proved to be the highlight.

And it was a rather fitting draw for Marine defender David Raven.

Raven made his professional debut against Spurs in December 2004. He was part of Rafael Benitez's youthful Liverpool side that won at White Hart Lane in the fifth round of the League Cup.

Sixteen years on, he's all set for another one-off meeting with the north London side.
