Heurelho Gomes was praised by Harry Redknapp after the goalkeeper produced a string of saves to help Tottenham to a point against Fulham.

The Brazilian denied Clint Dempsey, Bobby Zamora, Damien Duff and Zoltan Gera to earn a draw.  The Spurs boss believes that Gomes is now living up to his full potential.

“Gomes did well. Fulham were dangerous when they got it forward to Zamora early and Gomes made a couple of good saves,” said Redknapp.

“But so did Schwarzer – Crouch’s shot in the second half was in all the way. I thought it was a fair point.

“Gomes has improved. He was short of confidence when I first came here last year but he’s back to what everyone said he was before I came to the club.

“People told me in Holland what a great keeper he was and he’s showing it. That’s three clean sheets on the spin and that’s important.”

“Fulham beat Manchester United 3-0 last weekend so it’s a tough place to come. I’ve got no problems leaving here with a point,” he added.
