Sorry Spurs give Harry reasons to be fearful

HARRY REDKNAPP almost walked into the trap when asked whether Manchester United, having ended Tottenham’s hopes of winning the FA Cup, could perform a clean sweep of the trophies still available to them this season.

“It’s possible, for sure,” Redknapp admitted. “But I hope they don’t because we play them in the Carling Cup Final at the beginning of March!”

If the football world is relying on Tottenham Hotspur to scupper United’s plans of an unprecedented quadruple, or quintuple if you throw in the FIFA Club World Cup that has already been collected, then the bookies might as well pay out now. If Alex Ferguson could hand pick any team for United to come up against at the moment, it would be Spurs.
