QPR 0-0 Burnley: Jensen is spurred on by his Cup run
Published 00:00 05/01/09 By By Lee Reynolds
Brian Jensen admits his thoughts are already on taking another Premier League scalp after this dull draw against QPR.
The Burnley keeper has helped the Championship side knock Prem giants Chelsea and Arsenal out of the Carling Cup.
And he is now relishing the prospect of sending holders Spurs packing from the competition tomorrow night.
Jensen said: "I can't wait for the game against Spurs. It is a massive game for us, the fans and everybody around the club.
"Hopefully we can go down there and get a positive result - we will go down to cause a bit of a surprise.
"But we need to be at our maximum otherwise it is going to be a tough day.
"It doesn't matter if it is another London club - at the end of the day it is a football match.
"We want to get to the final as much as they do."
Jensen was largely untested during this FA Cup draw but was delighted to have done enough to earn a replay.
He added: "I am pleased to get another clean sheet.
"The main thing was getting back to basics and not letting a goal in.
"We have got another game now and we will have to play 10 games this month. It is going to be hard work but the lads are nice and fit."
Qpr boss Paulo Sousa claimed his players were roughed up by Burnley and demanded more protection from referees.
Sousa said: "I don't like to speak too much about the officials, because they have a very tough job, but he missed a lot.
"Emmanuel Ledesma was caught with an elbow and he failed to spot it.
"It was one against one and somehow the ref missed it.
"We need to protect the game and the players are a big part of the game.
Without that protection, it is tough."
