Redknapp: Spurs could have two Premier League teams

Harry Redknapp beleives that Tottenham Hotspur have enough strength and depth in their squad to field two Premier League teams.

Redknapp was speaking ahead of our visit to Loftus Road on Saturday when he faces Spurs for the first time as QPR manager since his summer departure from White Hart Lane.

Harry has struggled so far during his spell at QPR but will be looking to get one over his former employer at the weekend. From our perspective we need to keep up the momentum of good form of recent weeks and come away from the match with all three points.

“Spurs could field two teams who could compete in the Premier League,” Redknap said.

“They have a second team who would hold their own at the top level without any problem. For a start, they have five top-class centre-backs.

“They can afford to let Danny Rose go to Sunderland on loan because they have people like Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Kyle Naughton and Kyle Walker in the squad. They have loads of top-class midfielders.

“They’re full of quality everywhere. It’s a similar group to the one I left but then Mousa Dembele has gone in and done well. They have an outstanding group of players, no doubt about that.”
