Fergie lauds Harry’s practical approach

MANCHESTER UNITED boss Alex Ferguson has praised the common sense approach of Tottenham counterpart Harry Redknapp as he prepares to face Spurs as genuine title rivals for the first time in his 26-year reign tomorrow.

Tottenham are eight points behind United having played a game more and need to win at White Hart Lane to remain in real contention, in a campaign where they have also impressed on the European stage.

Ferguson credits their success to the ability of Redknapp.
