Harry Redknapp names two managers who could rescue Tottenham from relegation
Harry Redknapp has weighed in on Tottenham Hotspur’s difficult situation, suggesting two familiar names he believes could help the club avoid relegation if changes are made in the dugout.
While Tottenham Hotspur believed that they did not want to make any more managerial changes following the recent appointment of Igor Tudor, the Croatian’s struggles could force their hand.
Relegation is now a real threat, with just one point separating Spurs and 18th-placed West Ham United, and one defeat combined with wins for West Ham and Nottingham Forest would see Tottenham drop into the relegation zone.
Tudor must ensure that does not happen, but if the former Juventus man cannot stop the rot, his place in the dugout could soon come under threat.
Tottenham relegation fight: Harry Redknapp names Glenn Hoddle and Tim Sherwood
Former Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has now named the two managers he believes could genuinely save Spurs from relegation.
Speaking about possible managerial options who understand the club and could step in if required, Redknapp suggested both Tim Sherwood and Glenn Hoddle as potential figures capable of steadying the situation.
Discussing the matter, Redknapp told TalkSPORT: “Tim would be a good shout now. Tim would be, you know, I think someone like Tim or Glenn Hoddle, even.”
Redknapp was also asked whether he would personally consider returning to the club if the opportunity arose.
Responding to that suggestion, he admitted, “Yeah, I’d do it for sure. I mean, I don’t see myself getting it, to be truthful.”
This is not the first time Redknapp has thrown his name in the hat as a managerial option for the Tottenham job.
Spurs may look to familiar faces amid relegation pressure
Glenn Hoddle and Tim Sherwood represent managers who understand what it is like to play for Tottenham, and they could help galvanise this group of players who are short of confidence.
We have seen clubs appoint former players as managers, and the effect it often has is positive. Manchester United, with Michael Carrick thus far this season, is one example.
Tim Sherwood has already made it clear that he would love to take the reins at Spurs as an interim manager, while Glenn Hoddle has offered to return as manager, with Tottenham still struggling.
