FORMER Aveley Comp student, Alex Pritchard made his premiership league debut on Sunday afternoon for Tottenham Hotspurs.

England under-20 star, Alex came on for his debut in the 83rd minute at White Hart Lane as Spurs went on to win 3-0 against Aston Villa.

Alex has played for the first team in some of the Europa league ties but this was a step up into the Premiership.

Boss Tim Sherwood has placed faith in some of the youth players but unfortunately he was sacked 48 hours later.
