Martin Jol hailed the versatility of Aaron Lennon as Tottenham swept aside hapless Charlton with a 5-1 victory in their Barclays Premiership clash at White Hart Lane.

Lennon was not on the scoresheet as Spurs recorded their ninth successive win at home, but he had a hand in most of their attacks against the relegation-threatened Addicks.

But Lennon's performance caught the eye and Jol said: "It was very good, he played on the flank and couldn't get the ball and (Amady) Faye was spare in midfield. He can even develop as a second striker but, if you have a winger like him, it's a big plus."
