Tottenham´s new £7million midfield acquisition Jermaine Jenas insists he has no regrets about walking away from Newcastle on the day England striker Michael Owen arrived from Real Madrid.Jenas quit St James´ Park for White Hart Lane just as Owen was being hailed as the club´s latest striking hero by 20,000 excited fans on Tyneside. But the England midfielder, who is hoping for a debut against Liverpool at White Hart Lane on Saturday, is adamant he would have left no matter who manager Graeme Souness brought in.Yet the former Nottingham Forest youngster rejects suggestions the tough-talking Souness forced him out of United. Jenas insisted: "I left for purely football reasons really. I felt I had gone as far as I could with them. It was nothing to do with the fact I didn´t get on with Graeme Souness at all."
