Threadbare squad irks Redknapp

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp admits their lack of strength in depth could scupper their hopes of qualifying for next season’s Champions League.

Saturday’s 1-0 defeat to 10-man QPR saw them slip out of the top four for the first time since November as their woeful run of form continued.

And Redknapp bemoaned his lack of options as Spurs chased the game yet they did not have a single senior player to turn to in the second-half with Emmanuel Adebayor, Louis Saha and Ryan Nelsen all ruled out.
