Pav: I am tired of being treated like this

Frustrated Spurs forward Roman Pavlyuchenko has warned manager Harry Redknapp he will quit the club if he is kept on the bench.

The Russian came off the bench yesterday to set up Niko Kranjcar for Tottenham’s winner in the 2-1 win against Bolton.

Pav said: ‘It is absolutely inconceivable why Redknapp keeps me on the bench.

‘I am tired of being treated like this. Now, until the summer transfer window, I am forced to stay.

‘Then, if nothing changes, I am going to demand to be sold or at least to be sent on loan.

‘It is not the money I am after. You can get nicely paid sitting on the bench. But I want to play football.’
