Leeds boss David O'Leary is intending to celebrate two years in charge at Leeds United on Saturday by giving George Graham a taste of what he missed out on.
Ex-Leeds boss Graham takes his Tottenham side to Elland Road to face all the young stars he left behind at the Yorkshire club.
The manner of Graham's decision to go back down south has not been forgotten by the Elland Road supporters who will be sure to give their former boss a dodgy reception on Saturday.
O'Leary's young side stand proudly on top of Champions League Group H ahead of European giants Milan and Barcelona and with Tuesday's 6-0 thrashing of Besiktas still fresh in their minds must be favourites to take a victory against struggling Tottenham.
But while O'Leary, Graham's former assistant, would like nothing more than to show his former boss how much Leeds have improved, the Irishman insists his admiration for the Spurs boss remains
undiminished.
'I wouldn't have got the job without George Graham so I owe him everything,' O'Leary said.
'George felt the club could not go further and he had the opportunity to go to a bigger club, a better club, a better squad, better financial backing.
'He felt that was what it was and it was my challenge then to see what I could do with Leeds.'
Meanwhile, Tottenham are lining up a new £8million deal for Aston Villa defender Ugo Ehoigu and Leeds' defender Dominic Matteo has earned his first call-up to the Scotland international squad.
