Kranjcar still important to Spurs insists Harry

Niko Kranjcar

Harry Redknapp has insisted that Niko Kranjcar is still in his plans at Tottenham.

The Croatian midfielder was surprisingly on the bench for the Carling Cup defeat to Arsenal in midweek despite the fact that Harry Redknappm fielded a team which included the likes of Giovani dos Santos, David Bentley and Jake Livermore.

“I’ve got a lot of games coming up and Niko is very much in my plans to play,” Redknapp told the Daily Star.

“David Bentley needed a game against Arsenal, but Niko played two internationals for Croatia in the last break.

“It wasn’t like he was desperate to get a game this week. I felt he was OK.

“Giovani (dos Santos) and David needed to play and that is why I went with them.”
