Chimbonda made to pay for his slow walk down Wembley tunnel

26 February 2008
The full-back, who had again been asked to play out of position on the left, was replaced by midfielder Tom Huddlestone in the 61st minute as Juande Ramos, the manager, made the first of his tactical changes.
Chimbonda: Jenas gives him a helping hand when he was substituted
The Frenchman reacted by marching straight down the tunnel to the dressing-room but what upset Ramos and the Tottenham fans was the length of time he took to leave the field. Urgency was required as Tottenham were trailing 1-0 at that stage.
Chimbonda apologised to Ramos after the game, wrapped a scarf around his head and joined in the post-match party, before moving on with his team-mates to their Essex nightclub. But his days at the club appear to be numbered.
