Redknapp: City squad better than Barcelona’s

TOTTENHAM manager Harry Redknapp thinks Manchester City’s expensively assembled squad is now better than that of all-conquering European champions Barcelona.

With the likes of Lionel Messi, Xavi and Andres Iniesta at his disposal, Pep Guardiola’s team are regarded by some as the best club team in history.

Under Guardiola’s stewardship, the Spaniards have won three successive La Liga titles and lifted the Champions League trophy twice in the last three seasons.
